So anyone else see this yet? If so, did you see it on IMAX? Adn how was it, on the IMAX?
Unfortunately I couldn't get into the IMAX screening as it sold out for the day (should have expected that), so I was stuck seeing it on the regular screen. Heh and suprisingly the theatre was showing the movie on only one screen (two including IMAX), so the 7:30 show I went for was full up.
As for the movie itself, I thought it was pretty good. Heh, blood, guts, death, and hardcore nudity what more could I ask for? Plus the CG was top notch stuff, though for during my screening there was a wierd lag or framerate drop during the Beowulf vs Grendel fight.
Spoiler:
I was actually surprised at how violent it ended up being, and by how much nudity there was (haha, even Hopkins was in on it, toga toga). Heh the Beowulf vs Grendel fight was one well choreographed scene that demostrated both. And the fight against the dragon, awesome (kinda ironic that Beowulf ended cutting his our arm too), that was one scene I really wish I could have seen on the IMAX. Heh, everytime Winstone bellowed "I am Beowulf!" I kept thinking back to Gerard Butler (King Leonidas in 300) and his bellow of "This is Sparda!"
Mead, haha, that line was amusing as at first I thought he was saying meat. And well if you remember the lines, heh you see why me and pretty much the rest of audience was laughing.
Hahaha, and it was hilarious how Malkovich kept beating Cain.
Oh and the ending, wasn't too clear on what happend. So did Wiglaf end up making a pact with Grendel's mother as well? They seemed to kind of hint at it with the long stare.
I didn't notice any "lag" during that Grendel fight though, so it must have been your theater experiencing some technical issues. What exactly was it like? Could it have been slow motion?
Nah, it was clearly lag or framerate drop, heh, like something you'd see in PC gaming. But I'm pretty it was just technical issues for our screening.
