while i was browsing around yahoo movies 2day, something popped in the corner in my eye. Beowulf, as in the very first piece of recorded English literature known to man. About some dude named Beowulf (pronounced Bear-Wolf or Bea-Wolf) that slays some demon named Grendal.

here's teh site
http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1808728058/info

Apparantly it is made using motion capture stuff, the same used in The Matrix Trilogy and I think LOTR? basically u can make digital people look incredibly real using pictures to form a basic layout of the face.
its coming out on November 16th 2007
it looks good but i'm curious of what you all have to say.
Win?
or Fail?

here's the trailer- turn ur volume up, its kinda quiet

YouTube Video

I haven't been to see it, unfortunately. I figure anything that Neil Gaiman wrote (he wrote the script, I'm not saying he wrote the 1000 year old poem lol) is probably at least pretty good, though.

Edit: the game looks win too.

I read Beowulf in myths/epics class. I'll probably go see it to see if they completely screwed up the whole story. D:
