Heh, maybe not as much as a fan (not as for PotC, for sure), but every other version I remember was, hmm, too plain and Hollywoodish. The '73 had such a specific flavour, so autoironical. All in all it was more screwball comedy (the king counting the diamonds in the dance! :D ) than Oh-So-Heroic-Action-Movie. And characters! York was perfectly brave and silly, eager and green, honourable and naive. Raquel was born for costume. And there was the best Milady ever.
