Well, I agree Kingdom of Heaven is inaccurate, but it is still the first movie of its kind I've seen address the issue of its own inaccuracy instead of just make excuses about it. They had a great Special Feature on the DVD that went through and explained all the spots where they got the history wrong. Plus I'm hoping the trend catches on of using rivetted aluminum instead of the crappy painted wool that has been used for maille so often in the past. Its one of my pet peeves with movies.
