Beowulf 2007[views:2506][posts:8]________________________________________ [Aug 12,2007 11:40pm - y_ddraig_goch ""] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3Z9RNmRjIk Looks stupid as fuck, the graphics are terrible even for cgi. I loved Beowulf and Grendel, the one with Gerard Butler of 300 fame, king Leonidas. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TGlSAtb-SDw"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TGlSAtb-SDw" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> It's got sarah Polley in it too, of dawn of the dead remake fame. And I want to know why the fuck every fucking trailer to come out has to have the theme song from 28 weeks later in the background, awesome song, but are these people ripping it off? I mean look up "I know who killed me" the lindsy lohan movie's trailer...it has that song, the new beowulf uses the song in the trailer, what the hell! |

But I have a feeling just from watching the trailer that they will focus way tooo much on angelina jo liee's character, Grendel's mom. |

We had a fucking amazing English teacher in high school; his whole unit was sci-fi and fantasy. We did (IIRC) The Hobbit, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Alice in Wonderland, and Beowulf. Which was both fun and easy for me, as I'd already read'em all. He also had everybody make a prop from one of the books, which he displayed all over his room. There was a (literally) 12-foot tall card soldier, a Grendel arm, all kinds of crazy shit. |
