I realize it's Branagh, I check everything I can before I comment. I was just having fun.

maybe it´s already here, but anyway: Rutger Hauer with his zweihander in Flesh and Blood from 1980s. I think it´s classic (OK, maybe the movie is crap, but I liked it:))

Hello all!

How about Ziyi Zhang from, 'House Of Flying Daggers' and also 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'. :)







and my recent favourite, Debby Harry in armour with a sword to celebrate Blondies 40th anniversary! :D

Wow.....Deb looks smokin' hot in that. Wow....oh, I already said Wow. :eek: :lol: ........McM

I simply wanted to comment on the fact that, despite not being what one could call a historical set of armour (elemets are certainly appropriately inspired by it, though!), the articulation on it looks great. It looks like the lady would be able to lift her arms abve her head with relative ease, and her waist looks like it could flex quite well also. At the same time, it looks like a plate below this keeps the vitals initially protected.

...Not quite as good as a Lithuanian/Polish Hussar's armor or a lorica segmenta with regards to practicality, but still very impressive for a fantasy piece. But then, the visual appeal was more so the focus here. And they did quite well with that!

Wow............Damn, I've already said that two or three times. :lol: If she wanted to go for the whole Joan of Arc thing.....she....ummm....NAILED IT. Sorry....teenager of the 80's here. Deb's hot. Yeah. Wow. :lol: :lol: :lol: ....McM

If Deb and Stevie Nicks were both in armor fighting each other, that would be the ultimate 1980's 'sword porn'. Oh hell....I gotta stop thinkin' about this......I'm a married man. :lol: :lol: :lol: ............McM

Glad the picture has made you so happy, Mark! Ha ha.

Here are a few more photos of Sean Bean as Richard Sharpe with his model 1796 Heavy Cavalry Trooper's Sword. I always liked that green Rifle Corps uniform

Bruce Willis in "Pulp Fiction"...

I recall a friend of mine recently stating "Sean Bean is my spirit animal."
Made me LMAO.
