He is a knight of noble blood. Prince Edward said so.

Was that not just him being impressed with him and using his position to make it up? The move's message is kneecapped hard if he was actually noble by blood.

It's left vague, but the most likely conclusion is the Prince made it up.

>>
>>215522619
Yes.

Just for comparison's sake - a Winged Hussar's armor was so valuable that, if someone managed to knock him out in battle, they would tear it off without damaging him and run for the hills, because for the average peasant/burgher that meant they were set for the next 10+ years.

>>215520168
Nobles were originally just people with good genes
Those who had intelligent minds, coordinated bodies, robust immune systems, etc.

Eventually they stopped caring about might over comfort and then nobles started to be born with low intelligence, or discipline, or empathy

A noble, originally, was anybody who could protect those who sought then for protection.
But at some point, something happened to humans.
Now they're these cowardly little parasites yous see running around.

I wish they had a scene showing him and his friends just parting hard realizing they are rich af, or going on an insane shopping spree buying expensive horses and clothes and whores idk something like that

also they were better looking because of course if you could get a good looking girl why not? this degenerated and you get the Habsburgs a bunch of inbred retards
>>
>>215523132
yes
>>
>>215523140
"Better looking" just means healthy
The more symmetrical, attentive, and empathetic a person's features allow them to be, the more attractive they are.

For instance, "hunter eyes" are good for seeing without interference from the sun, but I believe when you have more of a space in your epicanthal fold, it allows for more expressive eyes which make you better at communicating.

It's all like a video game.
All skills and traits exist along a continuum.

>The more symmetrical, attentive, and empathetic a person's features allow them to be, the more attractive they are.
i.e better looking
>>
>>215523374
Right but there's a reason why a person wouldn't be considered "beautiful" if their head was exactly shaped and colored like a rose

It's not beautiful because it's beautiful, it's beautiful because it's useful.
Think of what people naturally think is beautiful: a sunset, a waterfall, a rainbow...
Do those things look like a person?

So who taught all the peasantry the beat, rhythm, and words to We Will Rock You? Was it just a minstrel song that people of the time would have simply known? Was Queen not sued because it was in the public domain by the time they do it, in the future? Is this a future without Queen? Did Queen, or perhaps a major queen fan, time travel before the point in the movie where everyone's stomping and clapping and teach We Will Rock You to the peasantry? Can someone explain this
>>
>>215525902
or wait, did the movie take place in the future, the ruins of humanity, where humanity has once again reached the feudal lord stage, and so someone found decayed media, which just so happened to contain We Will Rock You, which inspired its proliferation, since it was a once-buried song of olde? Does that explain why all the peasants knew the song?
>>
>>215522619
Yes, William Marshall was the lowest tier of poorfag knight who inherited nothing and just made bank winning tournaments and became the most important noble in the land after the King. You could also get rich fighting in Italy for one of a million factions.
The real path to social mobility is in the Church, doesn't matter how much of a peasant you are.

That's the joke, anon. The prince just made shit up and then it became unquestioned reality.

>>215526383
Ah I thought they were serious. It's a subtle enough point in the movie and it's a movie where a ton of people like >>215525902 whine about the anachronisms as if they aren't totally intentional so I'm used to people not getting it.

That's like half the movie. They're just all noble of spirit. It'd be an unneeded character arc/plot bloat if one or all of them let the wealth and station go to their heads and need a parallel rise-fall-redemption.

What monolog are you talking about?

I mean thats how many noble families became noble in the first place. They got close to a royal and distinguished themselves in some way and the royal would title them.

It's aural translation for contemporary music. You literally see the trumpet players playing while the guitar solo from the song is going. The peasants are hearing the equivalent of modern rock music.

Of course it was, but if the Prince says it's true, who is going to contradict him?

checked and great film.
I wish there were more like it, not specifically medieval or whatever but just in terms of tone. it’s unique.
