The New Beowulf movie.
jimbunny:
Blargh. Grendel. By what'shisface.
Storm Rider:
As far as I know, it's live-action with digital enhancement added in post-production, a la 300.
Boro_Bandito:
But if you look at it its so much more animated than 300 was, that was mostly live action for the Spartan soldiers, with a fuckload of greenscreen, this is even more heaped on top.
Hey, John Gardner is one of my favorite authors, and yeah, I have the Seamus Heaney translation as well as the previous one from like the 70s.
I really don't mind her all that much, and being as this is like a R-rated flick, you get to see Angelina Jolie naked. I won't have felt this creepy and wrong since the movie Hackers!
carrotosaurus:
I'm not so sure I want to see it... all that CGI makes my stomach queasy.
Lines:
Yeah, the first few times I saw it, I thought it was going to be a live action movie with some CGI, but the last preview I saw looks all CGI. All of the actors had a slightly odd computerized look about them, so I don't think it is CGI ala 300, but more like A Scanner Darkly (different style though), where they shot it live and then put stuff over the live action. I'm not sure if I like that or not.
I am excited for it though, because I like the story of Beowulf (both the epic poem and the graphic novel of it I read) and Neil Gaiman, who is awesome, is involved.
