Just saw Beowulf in 3D
I just got back from seeing Beowulf at the AMC in Seattle - it was surprisingly good. I went into it having never read the book or heard the story, and the movie version (which I assume is moderately, mildly, or at least tangentially related to the book) has a very cool storyline.
For those of you who haven’t seen it yet, the script went something like this:
Grendel: *wailing noise*
Anthony Hopkins: I am completely badass.
Beowulf: *grunt*
Grendel: *more wailing*
Beowulf: THIS IS SPART…I mean…I AM BEOWULF!
Angelina Jolie: I’m naked.
Beowulf: *grunt*
…and so on.
Also the CG was gorgeous.
But seriously, it’s worth checking out in 3-D.
