Based on the online game Dark Age of Camelot created by Abandon's partner Mythic Entertainment, the world of Kamelot is filled with as much youthful passion, love, and sex, as it is with hatred, betrayal, war and the supernatural. Arthur, just 17, becomes King, while Guinivere, Lancelot and other familiar characters, all in their late-teens/early-twenties love and battle in the newly formed Kamelot. Think "90210" set in a land where danger lurks around every corner. In the Court of Kamelot there is as much danger inside the castle as there is on the outside and alliances shift as easily as the sands on the beach above which Kamelot stands.

wonder how will look emain zerg at amg.

No, it has Wes Craven as 'Executive Producer'
What that means is they use his name to sell the show but he has no input on it at all.

:uhoh:

FFS some of us have deliberately tried not to think about 90210 since they finally stopped showing it.

:doh:

So what is this going to feature? Female Hibernian Bards going shopping together in Tir Na Nog for the latest designer circlets? (and no, if you dont have one you cant be their friend).

Or how about this, a young Albion fails to pick up all his loot bags and gets picked up by the police for littering, but his rich parents bail him out.

Or maybe a gang of out of control Midgards have a party in Nottmoor Faste, get drunk, pass out, leave the gates wide open thereby allowing it to be taken by the enemy. They will then realise how morally wrong it is to drink and will be better people for the experience.

Lets not forget the under-age sex with a Lurikeen is a bad thing episode, the just because Kobolds are blue doesnt make them any different from the rest of us episode and the addicted to speed please help me I want to move slowly like other people I never meant to become a Skald honest episode.

Not that I have any idea of the content of 90210 of course, never watched it. <hides>

Dear god what will they think of next.

Well... best thing is, the writer duo was also responsible for such "trash" as "Power Rangers" if you follow the link about them on IMDB...

I guess costumes will be an interesting point within "Kamelot"... maybe Arthur will transform with help of Lancelot and by use of the holy grail to Arthurcelot, the mighty Knight of Good fighting with his giant sword Excalibur against.... Morgaloki, the giant evil villain combination... but as we all know, he will be not able to stand on his own, so he needs to bring his friends Parcihoe... Kamelot... lol

A show about Kamelot. Hmm, i think a show about Kamelot might be interesting enough. DAoC in itself that is. Not -just- Kamelot. Just a show about Kamelot would be done and done allready. Millions of times. Even a scottish show about Kamelot was made once. That was fun. But as the whole world of DAoC, it might be interesting. Unless it's some lowbudget ripoff show with kobbies being potrayed aas a human with blue paint. :p

Anyway, hope they make this Kamelot thingy...atleast good for a laugh.

i think youll find this just has to be a joke

you would base a tv prog on a game based on ancient history/legend

why not cut out the game and base it just on legend?

Mark Jacobs: Guys... we got a problem. Based on the Results of our Market Research on the potential of Dark Age of Camelot as Movie Title, we came to the conclusion that it is way to long, and too much bad assoziations are attached to it from our player base, to remain as a proper movie title which would grant us success, we need something more sexy, and something less unpopular! A very strong title so that we can base our marketing campaing on it. On which ppl don't have any affection to it. Any ideas?

Power Rangers Writer 1: Hmm, let me think what about DAOC?

MJ: C'mon be serious you can't expect ppl being able to pronounce or memorize DAOC! And we won't be able to lure our current addicted but raving DAoC Playerbase into buying our Product. However that name could easily suit our celtic/norse/irish boyband project, though...

[MJ placing some notes in his PDA]

MJ: Other ideas?

Power Rangers Writer 2: I got it: CAMELOT! It's short and sexy!

MJ: Yeah, we allready thought that up as well on the Senior Management Meeting, however everyone is afraid about getting mixed up with all the existing Camelot Crap! You know all this loosy Arthus and Camelot blockbusters out of Hollywood. Obviously someone also registred Camelot as movie title... already. We need something as short as Camelot, but more unique to our product! Show me your skills!

[PRW1&2 sticking their heads together]

PRW1: Sire, we got it! Yes, what about KAMELOT! You know we just exchange the C with a K. Everyone will go WTF, KAMELOT? What the hell is that? And watch it. They will get hypnotized by this title. And you will get more DAOC Subscriptions as well... and we will earn lots of money with it!

[PRW1 sobbing]

MJ: You are a genius. That's it! Kamelot, oh boy I can't believe how smart we are! Why didn't I came up with that name when I designed DAoC. I mean it is sooo obvious. Ah, that's too nice. However we need something more, a famous hollywood name, so that we can push it appropriate, does anyone got an idea?

PRW2: Sire... I just read about Wes Craven selling his last shirt because of his unbelievable success with his last movies. What about we just take his name onboard as Executive Producer and in favour, offering him lifelong DAOC Membership within a nerfbat secured realm?

MJ: Wes Craven's Kamelot, Boy that is pure sex in my ears! Get his name onboard and give that man anything he wants to have!

[PRW1 back at table after calling Wes Craven on his mobile]

PRW1: Well obviously he is a huge DAoC Fan playing a necromancer on Albion, I asked him about what he wants for being part as exec producer on our Movie.. and he hust wanted you to finally nerf savages and never touch Albion again!

MJ: Oki, I will ask my team to go for it and follow his requests. We had nerfed them anyway by release of ToA and I would never touch the realm I am playing at. Ah well... Wes Cravens... Kamelot... boy... that sounds soo sweet.

PRW2: Do we have allready any ideas about the plot?

MJ: Hmm nah, we just follow the traditional formular of "Secrets-of-Movie-Production Edition 2003", you will just mix everything up what was once successfull BH 90210, Charmed, Sabrina, Simpsons, Xena, Hercules, Stargate... you know we just take the best parts from everyone and claim it as DAoC property, I will take care that we have the game based background so that nobody has a chance to sue us. ToA surely plays the most important role here... you would be surprised how I fit Stargate into it.

PRW1: You know Mark, I got this brilliant idea about a giant Arthurcelot doing some kung fu in Camelot against this huge....

Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog

Hmm, if my late night apetite for undescribably f'in awful american tv, serves me well, i seem to remember a series screened at about the only hour it deserved (4am ish) called "The Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog"

<<one quick search on Google.com later>>

yup... as i suspected :puke:

knghtlgo.gif


that'll be the one - Not entirely based on DAoC obviously, but the oddly coloured, plastic childs trident one of them has, and the ludicrous armour and outfits some of them wear, you could've kidded me it was :great:

That was from the "Saban" stable, so lets hope that excentric doesnt get his grubby paws anyone near it, then maybe, just maybe, it will be a marginally bearable idea...


maybe... :m00:
