Turtles? Someone say TURTLES? OMG...COWABUNGAAAAAAAA!!!


40 Year Old Virgin was unexpectedly hilarious and Ong Bak was quite good.

I'm looking forward to Beowulf

We read that in old english back in 9th grade.

Anyone remember the Beowulf movie they made a couple or few decades ago - don't specifically recall when it came out? Memory is foggy, but I think it dealt almost exclusively with his battle against Grendel, and possibly his mother.

Still, if done right it could be quite good.


Edit: And I don't mean Eaters of the Dead or The 13th Warrior (novel and movie, respectively). Looking I've only found a couple older animated retellings and a few more recent films.

There was a Beowulf movie that came out a few years ago (well, at least 5 or so) with Christopher Lambert

So, I went to go see 40 Year old Virgin last night, but i got there and the theatre was full!! So instead we saw Two for the Money with Al Pacino - I was really impressed!! Pacino was awesome.

Lamberts movie was in 1999 and lame. There was also a Russian made Animated Epics made in 1998 that was pretty good given the limitations of its style.

There are actually two Beowulf features in production;

Beowulf: Prince of the Geats

Director: Scott Wegener

Beowulf: Jeff Carpenter
Ecglac: Joe Thomas
Aeschere: Burt McCollom
Prince Ingeld: Micah Shane Ballinger
Thelin: Eric Feliciano

Helldam: Apollo Bacala

and

Beowulf (next-gen Polar Express style animation)

Director: Robert Zemeckis

Beowulf: Ray Winstone
Grendel: Crispin Glover (!! casting !!)
Queen of Darkness: Angelina Jolie (voice)
Wulfgar: Sebastian Roché
Anthony Hopkins
John Malkovich
Brendan Gleeson
Robin Wright Penn
Shay Duffin
Alison Lohman

Guess which one I'm targeting?
