Now that they're both knighted, we need a "King Richard as appeared in a Robin Hood movie"-off between he and Connery!

Amazingly he looks almost exactly the same in Excalibur (1981) as he does today.

More proof, if we needed it, that the British make-up artist is the best in the world.

I think it's proof that bald white middle-aged men still look like bald white middle-aged men a few years down the line.

@Killkrazy- Is this proof that once a brit goes bald he'll look the same for the rest of his life?

This and Joanna Lumley being made a Dame almost makes up for a gong for Simon Cowell and worst of all a Peerage for John Prescott.

The basic flaw in the x-men films was not giving McKellen and Stewart enough time on screen together. The few scenes they shared showed you two true greats of their profession. I think McKellen edges it, but he probably got the best lines.

Indeed, indeed. We need a movie with McKellan/Stewart as opposites.

I wonder what would happen if Terry Prachett wrote Stewart's lines. Would that be awesome?
