This movie taught me that a man can indeed change his stars. It doesn't matter where you come frome: faith, persistence, friendship and (true) love can bring you where ever you want
In case anyone is wondering each person got 5 silver florins. Each silver florins was roughly $640.00, so they each got around $3200.00 from the tournament. So they put in roughly $7680.00, for a shot at more tournament money. That $3200.00 in the 9th century was enough to live like a king amongst peasants for roughly a year or buy some cattle to start a farm. A king of that time would be a net worth of around $15 billion of today. Jocelyn was probably worth around a couple of million from her family. She could tell by the breed of William's horse from the beginning he was nothing more than an above-average peasant, but she still allowed him to court her. There was king's back then that barely lived above peasants, so it wasn't a surprise to even William's arch enemy. Also, Gelderland was barely known to England at that time, so people weren't surprised of William's fake alter-ego is possible, he was a poor king. Since William won the world tournament, he was probably worth $2-3 million by the end of the movie.
"A man can change his stars!" And he's right. Roland became King of the Seven Kingdoms Watt became a pilot who is a leaf in the wind Will.....had a bad day, got some scars and became an agent of chaos.

best scene of the whole film. I even love the bit "we can do this" "do it, we've done it boy that's silver in your hand" "no I mean we can do this...... we can be champions" it's just epic! then of course a man can change his stars, great motivational line for anyone to keep going in life!
My brother had this quote on his cap when he graduated on Saturday from NAU. He was always effected by his ADHD and back in high school was not a good student by any means. 5/6/22 he graduated with a 3.7 GPA. You did it Matt, a man can change his stars
"A Man Can Change His Stars". This is the lesson of this film. It reminds me of Oscar Wilde - "We are all in the gutter - but some of us are looking at the stars."
I watched this at home with my parents who were horribly in debt when I was in high school. I never had a room of my own, never had any privacy growing up. This scene hit me and I changed my stars. I went to university and graduated with $60k in debt, part of which was because I gave thousands of dollars to my parents to turn the heat back on, and to save my home from the bank taking it away. Now I own a million dollar home, 3 vehicles, and am a CIO and CISO for a government organization. ANYONE can change their stars. What they don't tell you - before those stars change, there is a hell of a lot hard work, and sacrifice. You will fall down a LOT - but you MUST get back up. You MUST keep pushing forward, even when everyone is telling you to stop. You push forward, and learn along the way. If you haven't yet changed your stars - START RIGHT NOW! ALL OF YOU CAN DO IT!
oh my gosh this Music is not just epic. its my life! i want to die with that Music!! thats my favourite song of all time! and that sentence "i dont want to spend the rest of my life as nothing" is what life is really about
@dahdahdah123 No, the best quote is: "We're sons of a peasants. Glory and riches and stars are beyond our reach. But a full stomach, that dream can come true."
There was more to this scene where they say 13 is an unlucky number and William walks over and puts one coin between the toes of the man hanging. Is this some mandela effect shit. I remember I clearly.
There’s something missing from this scene. Does anybody remember? After realizing he has 13 coins he says 13 is bad luck, so he takes one of the coins to the hanging man and sticks it between his toes. Does anybody remember this?
@@avsmtg update. Shits pretty messed up…. So I watched the movie on cable, or digital whatever we have now and noticed the scene missing. I found my dvd bc I figured they cut it short for airtime. Watched the dvd and the scene was gone as well. Well I broke the dvd out again not too long ago to watch the movie and THE SCENE WAS BACK. ON. THE. SAME. Dvd from where it was missing. Needless to say I’m quite confused here.
@JoniX97 It's called Low Rider, and it's by War. You'll probably recognize the rest of it from other stuff. It's used a fair bit, I think.. or it was. :)

Remco van Veluwen yes very true I agree
I completely agree. Anyone can change his path as long as he believes in himself and sets his mind and heart to it
Truth

Epic comment!
That's very interesting. But William was also in it not just for the money, he wanted to be somebody.
Dang, that's a lot of money! Thanks for converting it to modern day $$$
You're the real MVP. Thanks!
So if the silver florins were around $640 each, how much more were the gold florins worth?
Alan Tudyk's British accent is so good that until very recently I thought he was a British man that could do a very a good American accent.
It's brilliant, it just sounds so genuine, like he came out of Manchester
Doesn’t sound like a Manc to me, more southern
Me too ! I was shocked to find out he's American !
@@aaronkenyon7112 he doesn’t sound like he’s from Manchester at all
From Plano, TX and can still do an incredible British accent.
"A man can change his stars!" And he's right.
Roland became King of the Seven Kingdoms
Watt became a pilot who is a leaf in the wind
Will.....had a bad day, got some scars and became an agent of chaos.
+Syryu And then they all died.
@@jakirakumahata5701and Kate has become a money launderer who stabs her partners in the back!
Wat had a bad day too eventually 🤣🤣🤣
@@jakirakumahata5701 everybody dies, not everybody truly lives
And Geoff became an android who fell in love with a witch.

Yes I agree and I want someone very special to me to know this , my boyfriend.
"So do you wanna know how I got these stars"
Ha ha ha... and I thought my jokes were bad!
andrue cates did you mean to do that hahaha
Bessie, she was one of yours. Thank the gods for Bessie.
Such UNDERRATED movie
I know right???????
This is my favorite Heath Ledger movie of all time ! ! !
literally everyone and their mother love this movie. I've never met a single person to say something negative about this movie.
My brother had this quote on his cap when he graduated on Saturday from NAU. He was always effected by his ADHD and back in high school was not a good student by any means.
5/6/22 he graduated with a 3.7 GPA. You did it Matt, a man can change his stars
Excellent movie!! Oh,how I miss Heath! It breaks my heart every time I see him or think of him. He was such a great talent and a lovely soul.
How did I completely forget that Alan Tudyk was in this! I like his english accents.
I adore this movie...breaks my heart that he died. He was an incredible actor. I love his movies. THis is a great movie. Inspiring.
am I the only one that comes back from time to time to receive inspiration from this movie?
nope,,,I ALWAYS come back.
Friends like them is all you need to make it in this world
Fav movie of my life.
Same here

A man can change his stars".. absolutely!
how did they become noble? they wrote the book on it (and held the copyrights)
nowwww this is a movie....wonderful
one of the films for class warriors. behind every great fortune is a greater, luckier hustle.
There was more to this scene where they say 13 is an unlucky number and William walks over and puts one coin between the toes of the man hanging. Is this some mandela effect shit. I remember I clearly.
That's in the extended DVD edition.
An australian, american and english actor 👍🏻
Sometimes I think Thor takes notes from this.
got this as a tattoo :)
TheYogAdventures cool
Love this video especially the line A Man Can Change His Stars . So very true.
haven't felt like this since I left San Diego. this time its going to be different. or I'll die trying.
Leonel 7 Don’t die trying, you can achieve what you set out to, and live too :)
My childhood
When I better my grade at the end of the quarter I'm changing my stars
I used to love this movie!
Never noticed Roland is Robert Baratheon lol
1:43 aaah' the medieval life when it was normal just to pass by the gallows
Does the gibbet contain the hanged man's dog?!
Maybe not YOUR stars
If i had to be honest.
Now i know from where they took Edward Kenway from and put him in assassins creed black flag.
Love this film.
Joker really did change his stars. He went to become Gotham's most feared villain.
see money doesn't matter 2:36 lols
Full plate would have costed a small fortune. There's no way these guys managed to buy it with a few pieces of silver.
They didn't, they used the armor from Sir Ector, and did their best to refit it for Will.
Very inspirational !
i agree with WAT
Booooooo
Looove
William the Renaissance wook
13 pieces of silver...
There’s something missing from this scene. Does anybody remember? After realizing he has 13 coins he says 13 is bad luck, so he takes one of the coins to the hanging man and sticks it between his toes. Does anybody remember this?
Try searching a knights tale cut scenes maybe. Now I'm interested to see this, I swear I remember seeing this
Negative. I dont remember seeing that on my DVD copy of this
I have been trying to find where he talks about the thirteen being unlucky too. I remember it clearly.

@JoniX97 It's called Low Rider, and it's by War.

Whats The song on The end of The video
Low rider by WAR
If anyone knows what is the song that starts at 1:28 so speak up! :D
@JoniX97 Also not to be confused with 'Turn On, Tune In, Cop Out', by Freak Power, like I did for about 20 minutes before I got it right. :p
