Middle Ages are battle motivated times with castles, knights and armies that rule over different sectors. The movie The Holy Grail has many medievil concepts and aspects.

When I picture the middle ages I think of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. This movie really shows the good/bad, the funny/sad. There's even a lot of fighting and demon rabbits that really show how hard it is to live during this era.

When I think of medieval times I think of fights on the back of houses, heavy metal armor, and kissing the kings ring for blessings.

When I think of medieval, I think of knights and swords. They wear armor, and royalty and guards are the only form of government. All the farming is done by either peasants, slaves, or both. A movie that is set close to these times is Gladiator.

When I think of the middle ages I think of Robin Hood. This is where there is usually a king as a ruler and seems to be hated or loved and never an in between. There is always lots of violence and fighting.

When the middle ages come to my mind I think of the Game Of Thrones. I also In vision vikings and a lot of war where people are slinging arrows off of castles at the opposing enemies. As well as a lot of partying where severe amounts of alcohol are consumed.
