Why would you even do that?

I just saw Elizabeth II: Revenge of the Catholics.

Leaving aside all the other historical issues, how could you make a movie that is ostensibly about the Spanish Armada and not even mention Sir Francis Drake?

It boggles the mind...

I heard that the Armada was defeated by Sir Walter Ooh-what-a-big-ship-I've-got Raleigh and his penis-ship!

Can't have a dashing pirate running around the movie when Clive Raleigh Owen is supposed to be the hunky love interest.

Yeah. I've been hearing the sequel just isn't as good as the first movie. Go figure. :-P
