Of Beowulf and Hollywood...

[msfledermaus]

...I was reading a post from Jkcohen about the new Beowulf movie. I remember reading and loving the book when I studied early English Lit, so I wrote:


"I wonder what liberties they're gonna take in the movie...you *know* they have to change something, somehow. Maybe they make Grendel's mom Angelina Jolie or something, and she and Beowulf have a torrid romance that goes all wrong?"



I had NO idea I was actually right. Eeeew!!! Fetch me the puke-bucket!!!
