Wild Isles (2023)
Amazing!
BEST documentary I've ever seen! And I've seen a lot. The cinematography is fantastic, and
each scene is better than the previous one. How many have sat down, committing time and energy, to see a documentary, only to be disappointed with viewing something you've seen a million times before? Not with one! Everything is unique and refreshingly new. The dedication the camera people, producers, and crew put into this final product is not short of outstanding.
Last but not least, I must take my hat off to David Attenborough. I mean, the man is almost a 100 years old and still he continues to work and astound! Kudos!!!

MIssed Opportunity!
Tarantino missed a great chance to make a masterpiece with this. Instead of delving into what motivated one of the most sinister murders in history, he centers on 2 has-been losers. And to top it all off, he changed history to boot. But the world doesn't live in a fairytale, Quentin. Bumbled opportunity.

Raping of History
I don't want to spoil the fun for all of those enjoying this ludicrous, ill-conceived show, but allow me to share a few facts:
Up to 1306, when events are taking place, Queen Joan of Navarre was already dead for an entire year; Pope Boniface had died 3 years earlier and been replaced twice over; and spunky, conniving (looks like 25) Princess Isabella was actually an 11-year-old child.
And these are just the least of the historical inaccuracies. All the writers had to do was to open Wikipedia.
Isn't it time raping history be considered a crime? What do you say, "History" Channel?
