I heard this is being made into a movie, again.
Anyone else read the poem? And if so, can any of those who read it read it in the archaic form of English? I saw a few lines of it, and I could not read it at all.. So it was an English translation.
But Beowulf is an awesome poem. I hope they do a good job with this movie..

Beowulf has nothing to do with werewolves. It IS a movie, cartoon, comic book seires, all sorts of stuff already.. I'm just kinda looking forward to this one because of how much special effects have changed. The poem is awesome if you like literature and stuff like that. The best part is no one knows who wrote it! Or excatly when it was written

Probably the "wulf" part in Beowulf. Haha. I hope it will be good, the other Beowulf movie was "Beowulf and Grendil" and it did not do the text justice. It is a great story. Monster goes to this kingdom, all ticked off.. starts killing the soldiers (And eating them).. and none of the people they can slay him.. But yeah, if you have time, and you like to read, read the poem

Is it American Werewolf in Paris? Or American Werewolf in London? Something like that... I like zombie movies better... I once had a dream where the zombies were super smart and could function like a normal healthy, not-dead human. It was cool.

Zombies are great! I got a freind who likes zombies in a BAD BAD BAD way. *shudder* Well he used to back in high school, he has changed a lot since there, so who knows?
Hm,.. I have no idea what movie you are thinking of, haha.
And yes yes, I love zombie movies. Though they tend to make me laugh, a lot... I kinda wish the Resident Evil games were the story of the game.. but I guess that is difficult to do, but they do it for books, so why not movies? I like my dreams where the zombies are smart, and can function basically like normal people. Great, great fun going around blowing stuff up... And I was in a fan-fic my friend was writing! not sure if he has worked anymore on it though.. I was the demo expert in the group, So I got to make BIG booms... Mwahahah... On a side note, I was upset when I was not allowed to put things in the old microwave to try and make them explode.. Sigh...

the Resident Evil movie (the first one) is like my second favorite movie of all time dude! Second only to life as a house that movie has SOOOO many good things going for it - cool cast, cool zombies, cool action - everything. Second one sucked ass in so many ways tho! and i wanna be in movies some dude off the rocky board *you know who u are* said i hav a face for movies..awww im so flattered. I dont think so tho - dont u need confidence to be in movies? thats totally not me !

I don't have the face to be in movies. I could play a corpse though, or a zombie. Does it make me a bad person to want to play a corpse or zombie in a movie?

no it doesnt make u a bad person - its makes u interesting. tho im sure your not as bad as u say...everyone always thinks theyre not as good looking as they really are.
but in hollywood there are so many, no so attractive people who have made it good - so dont worry...just look at chloe svegniy, adrien brody, willem dafoe...not classically good looking people, but have made it good as actors.

True. And I do tend to view myself in a very negtive light, but it just makes it that much easier if someone decides to be mean to me. "so what? I said that about myself months ago, come up with something new".
I think I'd rather be a voice actor anyways. I know you hate animation and stuff, but I just think it would be kind of cool to do a voice for something like that. Or even characters for video games. weee! That would be totally awesome. Then I could go to conventions.. have odd people hug me.. no.. wait.. SCARY! *hides behind Shallow*

here natty - ill protect you.. but i think it comes with part of the job, if your famous, people will just wanna come up to you and hug ya, kiss ya, and take yr photo... i dont know if i could do that - the pressure to look good all the time!!!! i mean i love having my foto taken, but to have people take fotos of u when your having an 'off' day - with bad hair and raggedy clothes...i dont think so! but hey, at this point in time - if anyone wanted to hug me, id take it! i need a hug
