*"Sir Ruber was one of King Arthur's knights, serving the monarch from 528-536 AD. Suffering from multiple at the time unidentified birth defects, he possessed an abnormally broad frame, and a neanderthal-like skull so thick that he could effortlessly break an armored opponent's head apart with one headbutt. It is believed that his obscenely dense skull was constantly compressing his prefrontal cortex, making his mental state highly variable and actions hard to predict. On may 5th, 538 AD, Sir Ruber was enlisted as one of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table, due to his exceptional combat ability, which seemed to rely less on skill and more on screaming wildly while bludgeoning every living thing within a twenty foot radius with a mace, or striking opponents down with his aforementioned dense frontal skull bone. Ruber served Arthur loyally for the next eight years, assisting the king in putting down all invaders and unifying Camelot under one banner. However, on March 3rd, 536, Ruber would unexpectedly grow enraged when it was explained to him that helping Arthur win the war did not automatically make him King, (An assumption which baffles historians to this day.) Violently incensed by this revelation, Ruber would draw his mace and strike down four other Knights of the round table before killing Arthur himself. On his way out of the chamber he was struck by a volley of javelins and killed instantly. In the resulting power struggle which followed in Arthur's death, Ruber's body was lost, although a small monument to him was erected in his home town of Rugby, Warwickshire, England. The events of his life, particularly his assassination of King Arthur, were loosely adapted in the 1998 animated film: 'Quest for Camelot'"* *-David Barkley, "Upsetting Anecdotes from Medieval Europe" Pg 154.*
" Ruber would unexpectedly grow enraged when it was explained to him that helping Arthur win the war did not automatically make him King, (An assumption which baffles historians to this day.)" Well, he was 8 years old so it kinda makes sense
"While his body has never been recovered a 2-by-2-by-2 inches block of dense bone is speculated to have belonged to his skull. Scientists find themselves baffled as to what could have dislodged this piece of bone in the first place, as no modern means of cutting or drilling it have been successful."
Dude showed up to the meeting where land and titles were being divied up. Didn't even wait to see how much he was getting, and demanded more. Then ran across a table to murder the king with the magic sword that makes him immortal Did they really not consider that Sir Ruber was gonna be a problem some day? He's basically a Warhammer Chaos Warrior
With the horned helmet he wears at one point when he return and the spinning sword hand that he use later and the maniac laugh, Ruber IS a chaos warrior
Looking back, I would bet money this movie was also supposed to be the pilot for a show, similar to Jimmy Neutron, or for those who remember, how Aladdin became a trilogy along with an entire TV series thrown in between "Return of Jafar" and the "King of Thieves." Think about it: It's got all these interesting details like the forbidden forest, the dragon territory, Ruber himself, offscreen witches that he got the potion from, a cool setting in the Arthurian age, and a pair of heroes who are dead-set on this only being their first adventure with some entertaining sidekicks in Devon and Cornwall, all with just enough information to keep it let you know what you need to know and keep it interesting while there's room left for more to find out. Then it got a mixed reception, and well...that's all she wrote.
@@morgant.dulaman8733 sometimes you just gotta be glad you got a decent movie but there is no doubt that a quest for camelot had the potential to be a full franchise.
You every time I've thought about this scene I think. "How the hell did Ruber become a knight of Camelot?!" Then I realized this Savage outburst likely answered that question. Would probably be easy for Arthur to look the other way when this absolute unit tore shop on all his enemies.
Let's be honest here, swords are very beautiful, elegant weapons/status symbols. Ruber is none of those things. In fact, I imagine that the man likely only has a third of a sword in that sheathe, from smashing knights over the head with it. This is likely why he'd want Excalibur. "Oh wait... the King has a sword that doesn't break after 10 seconds of bloodshed? Tis regicide o'clock!"
It never clicked to me that the tapestry in the chapter house’s archives was meant to be quest for camelot. This shitpost makes me so happy that it implies that the moment Ruber losing his shit and started killing everyone was not only so jarring that art was made about it for generations to remember, but the glow around his head implies that he was sanctified which makes it even funnier
@@GreaterGrievobeast55Hey, when you get past our cryptic prophecies and disturbing, dark secrets, we Tzeentch followers are actually kinda chill and reasonable 🧿w🧿
They said the same of Ricardo the Babyeater but as it turned out he lacked knowledge on administrative function, possibly because he kept killing the administrators.
It was told he lived as a brutal tyrant and failed conquer for having no unity amongst the other lords or the people he ruled over to marshal a proper army. However he met his death not in battle but in his room split open from head to groin and his pancreas savagely torn out. No one knows who done it but the only clues was an axe and a chicken. Theories have been offered but none can answer how Sir Ruber met his end only that he died without a shred of glory to his name or honors bestowed, but buried in an unmarked grave far from the lands of Camelot and some dare say far from Albion itself. As for his Griffin none cam say if it escaped, was killed and devoured or sold to the nearest shady merchant. All that was left in it's pen was but feathers, chunks of flesh and bone, and blood coating it's lair. That is the rumor to his demise though the origins of this version of the tale has been at odds with a blind man from the woods, a farm girl yearning to be a knight and avenge late father who died at Sir Ruber's mace, and even rumors has it a powerful wizard too. None know the truth of it for many prefer Sir Ruber to be forgotten much so to be eternally beneath the hindquarters of a large troll to be in eternal anguish. Who can say what happened to Sir Ruber the Cruel.
Should be noted that in original that the only reason they survived Ruber was because of Excalibur. Otherwise he would have murdered every knight and King Arthur.
Liberty! Justice! Trust! Chorus: Shall be greater than all. Freedom! Peace! Honor! Chorus: No one greater than all. Goodness! Strength! Valor! Chorus: Shall be greater than- Ruber:FUCK OFF(kills in an incredibly beautiful way)NOW A HOLY FUCKIN KING King dwarf:Wait I AM KING Urist:Listen here sons of gay Santa Claus Walter White:You can damn bitch
That's the old Disney versions of I used to watch Disney did used to like their Gore back then men have a lot of old cartoons back in the day used to like their Gore man I'm old still have the DVDs of those cartoons
King Arthur took him in for his mental deficiencies, making him easier to manipulate and turn into a living weapon Once fighting is done, Ruber outlived his usefulness and is forgotten about, given a paltry sum for his efforts Ruber sees through King Arthur's cruel ways and demands a reformation He is immediately demonized What did Warner Brothers mean by this?
Wait, which painting? I dont recall a painting like this, though perhaps my brain exploded...much like the kings Edit: Holy shit i just noticed it, HOW DID I MISS THAT?! HOW DID I MISS ALL OF THESE AMAZING PAINTINGS IN THE BACKGROUND OF THE EPISODE!
