Beowulf and Grendel.

Just watched this movie. It was excellent, poignant even. I think I'll watch it again tomorrow. Great scenery that reminds me of Newfoundland. Awesome score.

I highly recommend it.

Just for anyone wondering, this is not the upcoming one with Angelina Jolie.

Sarah Polley is mighty fine in my book.:heart:

I was thinking of checking that one out. Anything has to be better than the version with Christopher Lambert

 

[Throckmorton]

Isn't the true monster within?

I agree. I remember when she was on Road To Avonlea.

Ironic.. I'm reading that right now..

 

[Saint Michael]

I saw the film. I liked the authenticity of the environment and the general attitude/mannerisms of the vikings, but I felt the whole premise was sort of contrived and the message unsubtly hammered in.

looks interesting! I'll check it out

thanks for the recommendation

It's not ironic, it's just coincidental!

At any one moment, at least 40% of ATOTers are probably reading this book. The other 60% are reading the Iliad.

I just saw the movie.

Not bad, not bad at all!

I was waiting for Beowulf to say something about eating in hell

Coming out later this year. I think it's just called Beowulf.

Time to walk the Uncanny Valley.

What, no Christopher Lambert with a semi-automatic crossbow? Fail.
