I can become king, but the sword is guarded by fierce killer turtles.

What can I do?

I've got no sympathy. If you're not man enough to fight through a few
turtles to get it, you're just not heroic enough to be wielding Excalibur.

"Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some
watery tart threw a sword at you! I mean, if I went around sayin' I was an
emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'
d put me away!" -Monty Pyton, More from the same scene.

As long as it is not made of copper, just leave it there. The Algae will
hide it soon enough.

Still some of the best stuff around; I was going to reply with something
about a watery tart, but I'm _way_ too late.
I'll just bugger off and run away.

I've got the DVD. Well worth it.

Hope it's not too sharp. Otherwise, I'd be purchasing liner repair
tape to be ready for an accident should your retrieval endeavors cause
an inadvertent puncture.

[Just to drag out this OT but amusing tangent]

Have you got one with the "extra material"? The docu of Graham
Wossname and the director travelling all over Scotland re-visiting the
locations of the film shoots is very good. Best part is the gift shop
at the castle (the one that was used for almost all the castle scenes
-- Camelot, Swamp Castle, French Castle, Castle Anthrax), where the
best-selling item is the film script, and Python-loving tourists run
around banging coconuts together.

I do indeed. I loved the idea that the search for locales took place in
only the finest resorts and hotels, leaving no money for the actual shoot.

And people younger than the movie have been heard to say "I'm not quite
dead yet..."

Sir Robin ran away.
Bravely ran away away...
When danger rears it's ugly head,
he bravely turned his tail and fled...
