He needed the money to renovate his castle in Ireland. Can you say "money 
pit"?  ;-)

I actually didn't mind the movie all that much (I thought "not bad for a 
B-grade movie"). However, it was more that certain sequences/snippets were 
good (e.g. the Thieves Guild, the trapper), rather than the overall thing.

I *loved* the blue lipstick. A lot of my friends were complaining about 
it, and I said to them, "What better way to demonstrate the guy is a 
high-level fighter? After all, are _you_ going to be game enough to argue 
with him over his choice of facial decoration??"  ;-)  ;-)
