Why this movie?
In terms of stories of epicness, adventure, courage and all around savagery, very few meet the scale of the epic story of St.George. Even the legend of king Author doesn't come close to matching the tale of St.George. Here we have a hero who cast out a sword on a fire breathing dragon to save a princess, denounced an evil emperor, and even tales tell of him literally rising from the dead. Imagine a violent king beating and flogging you to death, while screaming, "where is your God now?", for you to not even flinch? This movie would have the opportunity to take people on the tale of adventure, action, and leave them on the edge of their seat wanting more. From songs like "St.George and the Dragon" by Toto to tales of a brave and mighty soldier ready to rescue a princess, isn't it time an epic movie gets made telling the full tale? The critical acclaim of such a movie if done right, will likely be one of the biggest production successes out there.
