Arthurian means “about King Arthur and the old stories around him”. We talk about Arthurian legend, Arthurian romance, an Arthurian film. It is not the king's name itself; it is the adjective for that whole world — the knights, the castle, the quests. You will meet it in books, museums, and film writing, not much in everyday chat. It feels a little literary and old, which fits, because the stories are old. If a writer says a film has an Arthurian mood, they mean swords, honour, and that Britain of the legends, not a real king alive today.
