as someone who was, until recently, intimately involved with the study of Beowulf and all it's intricacies, all I can say is:

I FCUKING HATED BEOWULF!

and, I rooted for Grendel.

Sorry the movie sucked. I know how that feels.

But, still, my idea of a Good Time is not listening to a bunch of egomaniacal

pat each other on the back because of this battle or that battle, playing wife swap via the auspices of 'peace keeping', whilst hoisting flagons of ale to their mustachioed lips and vowing to slay the coming dragon.

Or, maybe it IS my idea of a good time, I've forgotten.
