@bLoodykNuklz Its not all fantasy, the wierd creatures that attacked them etc. Total fantasy, though it might also have been the fantasy the Vikings believed in. The funeral in the beginning actully occured one thousand years ago. Movies will always be exaggerated, so we must look at a more resonable fact, that the vikings were a bit like this and that happend then...etc.
@Varangian1915 Maybe he had a new sword made entirely, and used the same hilt? Though it would have taken longer, and i don't know how the swordsmith would know how to make one.
hey, i call that talent. he takes a viking broadsword, a weapon meant for chopping people and trees in half, and makes a functional scimitar. impressive.
Viking swords were made for a Norse mens particualar body type,which is built for strength Aribs however are shorter & built for fast movements hense the lighter sword!
It has nothing to do with body type. Broadswords are made for stabbing. Scimitars (and other curved blades like the japanese katana) are made for slashing.
just curious why the movie is split into so many small parts. Is it because youtube will otherwise notice that a movie is posted if it's split into longer equal parts?
@dsbclt when I uploaded it originally YT had 5 minute limit. I would like to reupload it but the disc I had was destroyed by my dad when he borrowed it couple of years ago.........it was literary unplayable from all of the scratches on it. When I get a replacement I will gladly reupload it.
@Flipper79able If im not mistaken (which im sure im not :P) the red haired actor was in gladiator but apeared for only a few minutes, he was the praetorian who said to russel crowe "Kneel" when they were going to execute him on comedeus's orders and was just about to stab his head off when russel then headbutted him from the back of his head to him and then took his sword and stabed him in the chest with it before turning to the other guy saying "The frost, sometimes it makes the blade stick"!
@Flipper79able Not necessarily. Don't forget the Viking Erik the Red. It could have been common stock to make the red hair, plus the vikings did several raids over Ireland.
@mydlands Give me a fucking break. Ireland didn't have bears and therefor no bearskinned people. Anyone who doesn't see these are Native Americans are either stupid or playing the devil's advocate with me.
@Flipper79able He is most likely supposed to Scottish or Irish. Both the Scots and Irish would occasionally serve as mercenaries or soldiers of fortune. It was not uncommon during this time for some of the Celtic groups at this time to fight with a particular group of Vikings (the Norse) and fight against another group of Vikings (the Danes for example).
The Swedish Vikings really didn't travel west. They went east into Russia. The Swedes liked to set up trade routes with the east.
@Aweedram Offcourse the Swedes travelled West, There are many runestones in Sweden raised to honor fallen warriors in the West, Many chieftains raised a fleet and went west aswell (Björn Ironside e,t,c) But The East was the obvious target offcourse, Closer. They founded the First Russian Kingdom and remained in the East as overlords for a long time. Created a thousend mile trading network From Todays Sweden to Bagdhad;Konstantinopel,Damaskus, And besieged Constantinopel twice and much much more!
@joonte1010 Yes I understand and know what you are saying however, by your own description you are describing what I would consider east Baghdad, Canstantinople, Russian etc...
I simply meant that the Swedish vikings had considerably less to do with settling and or raiding places like Ireland the Faroes, England, Iceland and Greenland. This was done by the Norse and Danish vikings primarily.
@Aweedram As i stated, There were Swedish Vikings that raided places such as England,France from times to times.. Why else would they raise runestones in honor to fallen warriors in the West? Björn Ironside also gathered up a fleet and went west and raided all the way down to the Mediterrean and Italy (He was aiming for Rome but attacked the wrong town, Luna or something the town was called). Hes fleet later got defeated against a Saraccen fleet but he managed to get home.
@Aweedram If your interested in Viking history you should really visit the museums here in Scandinavia, There you will find alot of interesting things! ^^ Otherwise the Sagas are something you should look deeper into.
@joonte1010 I will take your advice! I'll definitely read the sagas. If I had the money I would love to spend some time in Scandinavia. It is something I must do.
@Aweedram Iceland and Greenland and Faroe islands were primarily Norwegian places, It was actually a Swedish Viking named Gardar Svavarsson that first discovered Iceland and reported hes finding to the Norwegian King.
@Aweedram Your an American so im not blaming you for not having all the facts, This is atleast my history and it would be weird if i didnt have knowledge about it. There were Swedes in the West from times to times just as there were Norwegians and Danes in the East from times to times. Once there were even a Norwegian King in the East, He fleed from a Civil war in Norway and followed the Swedish Vikings eastward and to Constantinopel were he joined the Varangian Guard.
@joonte1010 True, I am an American, but that doesn't mean I am unable to learn. I also have some Swedish ancestors and other Scandinavian ancestry so I have an interest this topic. I may not be as well versed as you are but I have a decent grasp of Western European history as well as my own American history.
@joonte1010 the last men standing, that covered the last emperor's exit when the turks finally took MICKLEGARTH ( aka constantinople, byzantium, istambul.) were northmen...Swedes, Norskie, Danes, big scarey guys that were mercenaries that kept their word and bought the farm....Northmen ran Sicily for a while.
York, Liverpool, Dublin, Glasgow, Novgarod, were all viking towns....Orkney Islands were Viking country, Those guys got around. ya sure you betcha....uff da
@aikigeorge3 I dont think there were any Vikings in the final battle of Miklagård (Constantinopel) The last battle took place sometime between the 14th and 15th century, A couple of centuries after the Viking age had ended.
@joonte1010 I did not say they were vikings, I said they were northmen, the Varangian Guard....1353 may
big scary broadaxe swinging tough guys...there was a really signifigant amount of traffic up and down the river systems between the Baltic and the Black Seas...those longships worked perfectly on those rivers....
by the tenth century, raiding was pretty much replaced by trade and settlements....but every now and then ....
@aikigeorge3 Back then entiry Scandinavia was christianised and had major civil wars or "crusades" towards the baltic/Finnish lands. So its highly unlikely that there were any Northmen in Constantinopel when the city fell.

@RedCastle5000 oh yes, that was part of the danelaw in 1066, it was where harald hardrede set off to to fight harold goodwinson in the north of england whilst william of normandy was getting ready to invade...if they had not had to march all the length of the country, William would have had a harder fight i think......
Considering this is based on a Crighton book which was as loose retelling of Beowulf, I think the mix between fantasy and history is appropriate. After all, you don't think the original Beowulf's Grendel was a real monster, do you?
I am a history buff. Much of what happens in this movie concerning names, weapons, ships, food, legends is pretty accurate. However, it´s like a hollywood movie with guys who get hit 100 times and no blood or a guy kills 1,000 men but never gets a scratch etc...it is real in a sense but it is a story MEANT TO ENTERTAIN. It´s not a history lesson. If it were real, they would be eating 6 times a day to keep their weight up and raping local women etc. It´s just a movie.
Its a different verson of beuwulf saga, but its more correct, in the other beuwolf movie there is dragons and shit, armies in vikings stories were often called for different creatures.
may be you guys are right.but the sword which is used from centuries to century was this kinda sword.i think the Asian sword is like that coz i saw this kinda sword in every Asian war movies.
advantages:
fast quick re attack, no need of highted and heave men (means power to use it), use to hit the bulls eye
actually the original Arab sword was straight and double edged. But after the Turks introduced the scimitar to the Arabs, the scimitar starting to become popular. But in the 10th century, an Arab warrior would have most likely wielded a straight sword similar to the spatha or viking sword
by the way we have some arabian swords in the Turkish musim,and they are like 2 meters tall,i didn't found this part in the scripture but,what the hek its funny.
One question is the labeling of Linguistics of some North American Languages - the original name of Mohicans is Austronesian but Archaeo-politics puts it under another catagorization- The Chumash Indians have had contact with Polynesians and South Americans - Theres plenty in mainstream who support it - but the debates in that area get so political it gets flooded on the net- you have to dig into
The evidence of Viking touches are debatable, theres no linguistics , no written records- even though some claim a tablet fraud- but I myslf don't rule out the possible case of a landing- there was no trade routes back and fourth -
A common misconception. In fact, in Columbus' time, India was not called "India." It was known as Hindustan. When Columbus first observed the Native Americans' peaceful ways he called them, in his notes, "Una gente in Dios," or, "A people in God." "In Dios" has since been corrupted into our term "Indians."
They left Northern Europe and crossed the sea according to the messenger who introduced them to the king. That will put them England or Ireland. They might also have went to what is now Scotland.
This is how the vikings dressed! im a nowegian, i should know!!! its my fucking heritage you moron^^ you probably think they dressed like they were in the movie Pathfinder? now thats a movie wich make a mockary of norwegian heritage!!
why cant you just watch a GOD DAMN good movie like this and not write a SHIT COMMENTS? why???? just tell me? This is great story... about an Arab who came to Scandinavia... Culture meetings... and just for benefit of friendship between them... SO FUCK YOU all who is racist here... BECOUSE you dont belong to this movie, nezrak 20 these dont apply to you... you are good :)
In AD 922 the arabs were at the peak of their power, very noble excelled in art and
organised warfare. Clearly the Arab fighter is not familiar with extreme toughness and harsh nomadic life. He looks rather like a clown infront of them. That doesn't mean he is weak, but a guy who lived in a city rather than a village. its a bit like an English gentleman going to live with the Zulu tribes.
I agree but don't forget that the Arabs warriors came also from harsh deserts ! Yes for this movie this Arab came from a city Baghdad and he is not a fighter he is an ambassador, so he does not respresnt the Arab warriors in that time, do you know the Arabs were fighting during Ramadan month so even without eating and drinking from the sunrise to the sunset !
Palestinian listen, your arab warriors or arab culture will always be JUST SHADOW of ROMAN EMPIRE or ALEXANDER the Great and GREEKS, so shut a fuck up! European Civilization gave you this internet, where you watching this movie, SO BE THANKFULL! and stop messing around, I respect YOUR ARAB CULTURE but YOU SHOW LITTLE RESPECT FOR US EUROPEANS here... I am not Scandinavian, but I am European, so I consider scandinavias closer to me than you.
PETROforeverCRO: dude you're a fuckedhead idiot, nobody was racist here except you, we were discussing things about the movie !!! you prove that you're not close to the scandinavians because they are much smarter than you !
Also be aware that the Arabs who gave the world MATHEMATICS to make a calculation machine like your computer, Algebra Algorithm ...etc all Arabs.
so close your mouth, and remember that USA and Japan who made these technologies, not the lazy EUROPEANS like you !
ahahhahahhahahah you stupid little man :) Arab gave mathematic to world? Arabs stole everything from others, mathematic and logic from GREEKS, astrology from egyptians, arhitecture from persians... you even burned 642 alexandrian library, the greatest library of ancient knowledge... YOU ARE FUCKING PARASITES... ciao ragazzo
Oh dont worry about us... we are blocked for now, becouse of slovenians, not becouse of our economy or anything like that... romania and bulgaria are africa for us, and even so, they are in EU we are not :) that is a price when you defend Europe for 500 years against muslims from turkey, and what do you get? block from little bug like slovenia lol... but ok... You know what? I dont hate you :) I have many muslim friends here, but you dont respect any other culture but yours
well you are right, I am bored asshole in this moment, but I am not asshole for real :) just like to be asshole sometimes... it's more fun in some moments :) P.S: I watched this movie 10 times :) great movie :) I like the most last scene when arab say goodbye to scandinavias, it's epic, becouse they were friends trough all and even till today, arabs and europans are not friends like they were... it's sad
And what a fuck do you have with SCANDINAIVANS? go back to your semitic brother of middle east... we are full of muslims in Europe... you are not welcome anymore.
And what the fuck you have with a MOVIE talking about an ARAB with SCANDINAVIANA ? it is the 13 warrior here, go watch some Croatian boring movies, nobody likes the Croatians in europe !
hahahha no no, you see, they like us even they lose against us, and we like them becouse they always lose against us :) it's common good :) hahah and for you I will just say: FREE PALESTINE!
only 2 min at the time now!? -.-' come on... I mean thanks for posting and all, but would you mind having a bit longer then 2-4 min for each vid =P. else then that great movie!
There were no Irish or Scottish in Scandinavia at that time, W werent in somekind of an Union, we Raided ur Countrys, Ireland and Scottland.. We also took "Trälar" and brought them to Byzantine or Gotland to trade.
Thats exactly right. That is all the more reason why I think this guy shouldn't be in this group at all. Besides that, the plaid kilts (according to some) were not even invented yet, and whatever Irish and Scottish people the Vikings didn't kill, would have been sold as slaves. "Trälar" is a term for slaves, isn't it?
yes Trälar is Slave. But we often took ou Trälar from the Eastern Countrys, Poland,Baltikum,Filand and Russia. Ireland we colonised and Scottland we raided from times to times. England was the place who got hit by the Vikings hardest. In the West. In the East it was Russia and the Baltic Countrys.
Okay just making sure. It's definitely safe to say that England got their asses kicked by the Norsemen. I see you are Swedish. My Scandinavian blood is primarily Swedish as well. Our ancestors were the ones to go to the Baltics and Russia. Some of our ancestors also became the legendary Varangian Guard. I am quite proud to be part of that bloodline.

They left Northern Europe and crossed the sea according to the messenger who introduced them to the king. That will put them England or Ireland. They might also have went to what is now Scotland.

The Vikings were known to take Irishmen with them to Iceland, Greenland, and Newfoundland. They were somewhat friends.

who do you think would be good for the arab and Buliwyf if a better remake is done?
any famous actors?
Vid Diesel for Buliwyf?
of Gerard Butler?
fedorwelikala 2 years ago
Wesley Snipes for Buliwyf and Jackie Chan for Ibn. Throw in Michael Rapaport and Djimon Honsou as well. Unbeatable cast.

Awesome movie,
Michael Chrichton based this on the poem Beowulf,
If only the movie was more historically
acurate when it came to weapons, clothes and armour with better actors and a bigger role for Buliwyf it wud be the greatest movie ever!!!!

In AD 922 the arabs were at the peak of their power, very noble excelled in art and
organised warfare. Clearly the Arab fighter is not familiar with extreme toughness and harsh nomadic life. He looks rather like a clown infront of them. That doesn't mean he is weak, but a guy who lived in a city rather than a village. its a bit like an English gentleman going to live with the Zulu tribes.
Ken1567 2 years ago 6
I agree but don't forget that the Arabs warriors came also from harsh deserts ! Yes for this movie this Arab came from a city Baghdad and he is not a fighter he is an ambassador, so he does not respresnt the Arab warriors in that time, do you know the Arabs were fighting during Ramadan month so even without eating and drinking from the sunrise to the sunset !
PalestinianV 2 years ago
Palestinian listen, your arab warriors or arab culture will always be JUST SHADOW of ROMAN EMPIRE or ALEXANDER the Great and GREEKS, so shut a fuck up! European Civilization gave you this internet, where you watching this movie, SO BE THANKFULL! and stop messing around, I respect YOUR ARAB CULTURE but YOU SHOW LITTLE RESPECT FOR US EUROPEANS here... I am not Scandinavian, but I am European, so I consider scandinavias closer to me than you.
PETROforeverCRO 2 years ago
PETROforeverCRO: dude you're a fuckedhead idiot, nobody was racist here except you, we were discussing things about the movie !!! you prove that you're not close to the scandinavians because they are much smarter than you !
Also be aware that the Arabs who gave the world MATHEMATICS to make a calculation machine like your computer, Algebra Algorithm ...etc all Arabs.
so close your mouth, and remember that USA and Japan who made these technologies, not the lazy EUROPEANS like you !

blackbeltste 3 years ago 4
Yeah thats true. I just hope they were trying to make him Irish then and not Scottish.
punxunite1472 3 years ago
There were no Irish or Scottish in Scandinavia at that time, W werent in somekind of an Union, we Raided ur Countrys, Ireland and Scottland.. We also took "Trälar" and brought them to Byzantine or Gotland to trade.
joonte1010 3 years ago
Thats exactly right. That is all the more reason why I think this guy shouldn't be in this group at all. Besides that, the plaid kilts (according to some) were not even invented yet, and whatever Irish and Scottish people the Vikings didn't kill, would have been sold as slaves. "Trälar" is a term for slaves, isn't it?
punxunite1472 3 years ago
yes Trälar is Slave. But we often took ou Trälar from the Eastern Countrys, Poland,Baltikum,Filand and Russia. Ireland we colonised and Scottland we raided from times to times. England was the place who got hit by the Vikings hardest. In the West. In the East it was Russia and the Baltic Countrys.
joonte1010 3 years ago 4
Okay just making sure. It's definitely safe to say that England got their asses kicked by the Norsemen. I see you are Swedish. My Scandinavian blood is primarily Swedish as well. Our ancestors were the ones to go to the Baltics and Russia. Some of our ancestors also became the legendary Varangian Guard. I am quite proud to be part of that bloodline.
