Beowulf 3-D - Page 3

I saw Fantasia 2000 in Imax and I had a raging headache when it was done. The screen is so large I found myself scanning back and fourth, up and down just to see everything.

Bigger doesn't always mean better.

I would imagine 3-D Imax would be even worse.

Oh cannot agree more, totally.

Beowulf is alright what really bothers me is Grendel, I mean what the f' is that?
A big @ss zombie thing? That's just not the Grendel in my impresssion.

I just saw this movie in IMAX 3-D and let me tell you it was AMAZING!! I really enjoyed it. I don't want to give any spoilers but I will say that you have to see it in IMAX 3-D if at all possible. I honestly wasn't expecting much but I think it sets a new bar in animated entertainment.

this movie looks freakin horrible. the trailer is awful. if i want to see amazing "video game" action i can pull up crysis promo cut scenes from two years ago.

so keep the positive reviews coming and i might just torrent it first and if it is any good I may just check it in imax 3d.

I think it may mess with some people. I saw the Rolling Stones live as well as at Imax. Same tour, think it was 89. I was at row 9 & the Imax was very close to the real deal.

This could have been a great film if Peter Jackson did it, in LOTR style.
I watched the Beowulf with Gerard Butler last night.
It wasn't too bad.
I'm not keen on the way they render it all in CGI.
Just saying.

A big ass zombie thing is better than the previous version of Grendel, a bigfoot!

Yeah, I didn't criticize Grendel because I don't remember how he's described in the actual poem... But I agree I think the design in the movie is reeeally uninspired.

more unispired than a bigfoot? I liked this version of Grendel. I really felt that this was an unstoppable monster, not an old hippy/biker bigfoot dude. PLUS, man mating with a water witch would produce an abomination, sort of like what we saw on the screen. Its unnatural, thus you have the monster

GRENDEL.
