(Have to go to work in fifteen minutes- and I'm not even dressed yet. wOOt. Maybe I'll just go as I am, since I'm gonna get drooled on anyway.)

I've been on this Kingdom of Heaven kick ever since I saw it again last week with my sister. Guess what? All of the people in that movie were real people- they just got their roles mixed up. For instance, Balian of Ibelin wanted to marry Sibylla's mother at one point or something, got told off, and went and supported the other guys.

Baldwin IV really was that kickass, and Sibylla really did marry Guy de Luisangnon (who was still an asshole, and really did attack that caravan.) However, Sibylla did not get to run off to France with Orlando Bloom in the end- she died two years after the movie takes place of some epidemic or other, along with her and Guy's two daughters. Her son later became King (Baldwin V.)

The point is, the CSI/KOH plotbunnies are staring at me in a menacing way from under my dresser. This could be very, very interesting.

kingdom of heaven, history
