Please express as a perncentage where 100% = the Doug Fairbanks version, where, in the absence of dialog, merriness had to be expressed through a mixture of prancing and mincing.


No prancing whatsoever; singing is roundly rejected by Our Hero; there is a healthy portion of swinish mincing as done by Bad Guys. Heavily gay insofar as: sets up fangirls for crazy huge slash pairing frenzies. Prepare for much manly embracing and dark-eyed villains gazing upon our purehearted hero a little too long. The trappings most closely resemble RH: Prince Of Thieves; the treatment is a mix of that, Robin And Marian, and The Lone Ranger. Little or no detectable Fairbanks/Flynn influence.

On the modern culture scale of gayness, it is more gay like LOTR, less gay like Harry Potter. A subtle gayness, earthy, humectant, with top notes of RPG and Ren Faire.
