I think it's that it doesn't take itself too seriously, while still remaining carefully in the world/rules they set.

Well, that'll piss some folks off I think. I actually appreciate things like the crowd at the opening joust rocking out to We Will Rock You. The banquet dance scene is better executed; they start out with the old time dance and then fade into modern club dancing, as if to say "Here's what's actually taking place" versus "Here's how the characters feel about it in terms a modern audience can understand."

I think I'm more talking about how a lot of the sets look like styrofoam? Especially castle interiors or other masonry? There's just something very 80's Gragthar The Destroyer about it.
