I liked 300 better mainly from the fact that Beowulf beats up retarded children and runs around naked. Besides I coulda swore that guy that looked like Santa Claus said "Feast upon my golden meat hole.".
Well if you're going that route know that King Leonidas was with 3000 spartans in the real battle and they really wore battle armor and didn't go in with just their shields and swords. Just hollywood doin it's thing. Calm down and beowulf is not myth it's a poem/ballad... douche!!!
No he was with 300 spartans and about 4000 allies at thermopylae at 380bc, yes he wore heavy battle armor, and during the last day, after he sent away the rest of his army, he charged with what was left of his 300 and 700 thespians against the Persians. I 'm from Greece, I know who Leonidas was, and to my opinion he was a Real hero.
About Beowulf, that's what I was trying to say, that he is a mythical hero in a poem/ballad.
This is a comparasion of coolnes as you can not compare something that is imaginary to something that is real..exagerated but still real. Both the speaches before the screeming of some basic fact that every one knew were good. Besides its a matter of opinion..i liked beowulf's better because he did it after he owned grendal.. besides there are better quotes for leonidas (FROM 300 THE MOVIE)
Yeah I gotta admit the storyline in Beowulf was awesomely conceived from the book. 300 is based on older historic records, but Beowulf is set in the fanatically classic dragon vs. knight/goblins and ghouls/giant vs. man etc. time known as the Anglo Saxon era. If you ask me, Beowulf and Leonidas are equally kick ass set in their own times. Let them meet, and you have one hell of a team.
yeah, the Beowulf movie was alright, but most of the original story was completely changed...read the poem Beowulf, and maybe the book Grendel (for the monster's POV), for the real story
Robert Zemeckis directed Beowulf, Zak Snyder directed 300.
But back to the topic at hand, this was the only similarity I saw between the two movies....just one freakin' line, and it sounds badass coming from both of 'em.
I dont see "I Am Beowulf!" as a "This Is Sparta!" clone, Idk I like 300 and Beowulf...but At least he wore armor, Spartans in 300 were half naked(thank god cuz they were originally suppose to be BUT NAKED) Whatever idc i thought they were both good movies
there was only one person in the theatre who did that... it was kind of awkward because i watched it with my school and the principal was there... plus the huge tentacle-like hair-braid made me concerned over who would be "receiving" in the "battle" between Beowulf and Grendel's Mother...
sigh.... 300 was based on a battle that actually happened.... way longer then 500 years ago... tho i dont know the date because im not good with numbers.... and im glad someone else notice that this movie is basically trying to cash in on the 300 craze
sigh...yes i know it was an actually event...not that dumb...but the movie is a presentation of frank millar's 1998 comic book which includes a lot of fantasy...only the jist of the story is true
and beowulf was being produced almost a year before 300 started production...so its not a cash-in
dude there has been like 2 or 3 other beowulf movies before this one. including one that came out about a year before 300 did starring who? the actor who plays leonidus. make sure you have the right production in mind because there has been many. even if they did start production before 300, that line, I AM BEOWULF is obviously playing off the hype THIS IS SPARTA got. no question. they just tried to copy it. just like all thoese other fantasy movies since lord of the rings.
Lmao i've seen that trailer like 1290389012831 times and I've always thought it was similar (or a rip-off) of 300. Thought I was the only one who noticed! X]

They totally ruined it.
And it's sad how many people believe that it is the original story.
Granted, it's an okay movie,
