sweet! i freaking love that poem/story.

have you ever read the book from grendel's perspective?

10/22/2005 4:28:54 AM

^yes, tis a great book.

but grendel is supposed to be a huge monster? is this going to be kinda like a andy zerkis/gollum thing i guess?

10/22/2005 4:39:50 AM

yea thats the only thing i was thinking. was the grendel was supposed to be a large monster. larger than viking warriors. so i dono how theyll do that

yeah if i remember correctly, grendel was like a dragon or something

10/22/2005 6:38:06 AM

i always pictured him as looking like a Rancor in my head

10/22/2005 8:58:00 AM

i think its supposed to be animated, so Glover's less than massive stature shouldn't matter.

10/22/2005 9:49:28 AM

Most of the cast looks like grizzled warriors. I approve

Close -- Beowulf fights a dragon later on. He defeats both Grendel and his mum.

wtf grendel's head is so big it has to be carried by four men after the fight with his mom.

I could be wrong but I don't think Crispin Glover's head is that big.

EDIT: nm didn't see the post about it being animated.

doesn't he tear grendel's arm off?

10/22/2005 1:37:56 PM

yeah and they hang it on the wall, right?

10/22/2005 2:33:19 PM

btw
this would be a much better movie:

crispin glover as THIS grendel

which was what my hopes were when reading the thread title

But Beowulf just happens to be his supervisor and he's not very good at....confrontations.

10/22/2005 8:08:07 PM

^^ Thats the first thought that came into my head when I read the title of this thread. I think he'd be badass for Grendel.

10/22/2005 8:10:42 PM

^^^ wtf is that?

10/22/2005 8:31:27 PM

ya thats when he fights grendel. then after he kills grendel's mom, he goes to find grendel(who is dead), chops dead grendel's head off, and brings it back to hrothgar. the head takes 4 of beowulf's men to carry. trust me.

10/23/2005 5:05:32 PM

yup
