Legendary Ninth
Embed jingle for Neil Marshall's upcoming Centurion. Shill stresses savagery and camaraderie, two qualities key to Marshall's work. A brief hint of personal dissatisfaction: I would very much have liked to seen a film simply about a campaigning legion, rather than getting muddled with solo striving and surviving. I don't think any action arcing is necessary, you could simply build a film around the mentality and mechanics of such a unit, with a defeat as your cap. Something for the screen as ruthlessly researched and plotted as Warren Ellis and Raulo Cáceres' Crécy comic being the ideal. Never mind that though, Marshall's offering up McNutty vs rampaging, mute Picts! It'd be rude to refuse.
