I Just Finished Watching Polar Express

Remember...it's for fun!
I suspect the movie will have only the most vague resemblence to the Beowulf of literature. For one thing, Angelina Jolie's character, the mother of the monster, is originally a hideous old hag in Beowulf. Not so much with the eye catching hips! :)

As a Literary Buff, I think I have to see Beowulf. I remember reading Beowulf in Olde Englishe (yeah, 30 years ago).:mrgreen:

I had to read only a small part of it this year in my 11th grade english class. Most everybody liked it, except for me of course, I couldnt understand the Old English or whatever it was, so the teacher gave us another old english story, Im now out of the class,:p the story was ok but nearly impossible to read. besides I spent all my time in that class thinking about trains:rolleyes:, (or the girl I like:eek:ops:) I would maybe like to see the movie though, not my kind of movie,but since I read the book..........
