BEOWULF Ho!! See Zemeckis Anglo-Saxon Madness In All Kindsa Glorious QuickTime!!


Merrick again...

The trailer for Robert Zemeckis' CGI-a-riffic BEOWULF is now online.

Some of it is "Oh...my...GOD!!!!" breathtaking.

Some of it looks like cut scene fodder still in need of TLC.

ALL of the characters look better than the glassy eyed zombies who populated POLAR EXPRESS - whose technology was built upon to realize this project. And, this looks a helluva lot better than that goofy Christopher Lambert movie we got a few years back. (Duh!)

And, when all is said and done, they've CGId an Angelina who (here, at least) appears every bit as bulge inducing as the real thing. No small accomplishment there.

Click on Angelinabot's svelte, glistening, beckoning hotness to see for yourself!!!
