Beowulf never died by falling of a cliff with a dragon
-
@WeylandYutaniInc91 yeah the movie was not based entirely on the Epic Poem
-
I AM BEOWULF!!!
-
Beowulf isn't supposed to be a jerk... he's actually really nice and modest. But that wouldn't sell...
-
@WeylandYutaniInc91 depicts him as a man with greatness granted upon him unlike the classical blessed by gods approach
-
@WeylandYutaniInc91 They made him a muthafucking badass!

THIS IS SPARTA

I am Ripper... Tearer... Slasher... Gouger. I am the Teeth in the Darkness, the Talons in the Night. Mine is Strength... and Lust... and Power!
I AM MRS. NESBITT!
HA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

@ZenCatcher That's plausible since the queen would be bound to the king by crown. But it would be wrong to take a man's woman like that, like what happened with Oedipus.

Not in the poem, but the film. It's been a while since I've seen the film, but I got the impression after Hrothgar hands over his kingdom to Beowulf, he includes his queen in the deal haha. Otherwise, I don't see a reason why Wealtheow would have stuck around if she wasn't Beowulf's wife.
@EminemDirtyDozen Yeah, right, because I think that sexual imagery is far less worse than blood and gore, and therefore should be shown when in tandem with excessive violence, that makes me a pervert. Well said. Clearly you're a student of an Ivy League academy.

As much as I like this movie, I don't like how they portray Beowulf, Beowulf was a hero, a good man, in this they made him a jerk.
