Comic Con Teaser For BEOWULF Hits Online!!!

Hey folks, Harry here... The day before the BEOWULF presentation at Comic Con - I had the opportunity to check it out in REAL D's 3D. It is a bit overwhelming. First off - there's just the general feeling that I can't believe I'm watching an adult animated tale written by Neil Gaiman and Roger Avary... being directed by Robert Zemeckis - I can't tell you how long I've wanted a brutal, sexy animated film that wasn't meant for the ones in the short pants. That it is our first epic tale of English literature - and is in 3D - well, that pitches the tent right where it needs to be. But then there's the second thought - which is about the animation - It is gorgeous - a bit realistic - yet not. It was distracting to me for the first few minutes, but then something else happened entirely... I began getting caught up in the story - and when the sequence ended and this trailer played, I was a bit disappointed... not in the clip, but in the fact that I wasn't watching the entire thing. As I just watched this Comic Con teaser in HD - I watched it thinking about the possibility of George Miller's JUSTICE LEAGUE being a 3D Animated/MoCap film... and I have to say - it has been my dream... for a very long time - to see a top notch animated Superhero tale that just went further than anything we've seen in live action. That said - I wonder if MARVEL, through their distribution deal with Paramount - won't mount the same type of production with their characters - or will they keep it live action? I suppose a lot of this depends upon the success and/or failure of BEOWULF. It's a bold and risky step in a direction of Adult animation that our culture has been needing to take for quite some time.
