Consider yourself lucky, Where is the great Sir Bors.
Speaking of this film Excalibur where is the loyal Sir Bors. Where am I. I was always loyal to Arthur and Lancealot, I was always respectful. When they split apart I was forced to choose a side, I chose Lancealot but even then showed a great deal of respect for Arthur. I stayed beside Sir Lancealot and was his right hand man. He was the sword and I was the shield. This is how I get repayed? They don't even put me in the film, not a mention, not a hint? This is ridiculous that I am not in this film. Who made this abomination of a film. Who is responsible for this mess. Bors shall have his vengence on thee!

My dear Sir Bors, I Sir Bertilak couldn't agree with you more. The yellow bellied film makers of Excalibur truly need to brush up on their Arthurian History because they not only neglect to mention you, but they fail to mention me or my Green Knight Guise. I think my classic challenge of the Knights of the round table would have been and epic scene indeed. The use of magic in the film was well represented and this scene would have added even more glamor and spectacle to the film. We shall just have to hope one day a great visionary will rise up and give our stories the film adaptation they deserve.
Sir Bors,
I feel your pain of being left out. Although you would choose Lancelot over King Aruthur, my kin and Lord, I feel that many noble knights, including myself are left out of many tales. It is as if people only remember 10 or so knights, and not those who are truly loyal and valiant.
While I do not say you knights are not honorable, or worthy enough to appear in this excellent film, I do say you are not as worthy as I, Sir Kay, Seneschal to King Arthur, my foster brother. My only complaint is that people were led to misunderstand my lie at the beginning of the movie. I did not lie to try and better myself, and claim the crown for my own... I lied to prevent the youg King Arthur, my brother, from the harm and humility that comes with being a beardless king.
Bors, you bore me. Wah wah wah. Cry me the great river as I ride it down to the tide of truth. You are obviously not important enough for this movie, it's as simple as that. You are not the shield or sword or even the air around. You are misled to think you are more than you are. I am more than you all and I still am not mentioned. Arthur's greatest battle and I'm forgotten, but who are you? It appears that nobody knows. Not even the great king or his magic wizard. Well, like I said, cry me a river. I'm thirsty.
Dear Sir Bors, I know how you feel. I am one of the most left out characters in all of Arthurian legend. I appear in what 1 or 2 stories at the most. And in each story I am barely addressed. Please don't take it too personally, I'm sure it was not intentional. Try to be rational I'm sure your vengeance can be used in more constructive ways.
