Beowulf

Aint It Cool have certainly got the contacts, that's for sure. They've now pulled off what I consider to be the most exciting online scoop in a long while and run a whole series of production art, test images and what appears to be one lonely still (with the sword, as seen above) from Robert Zemeckis' upcoming Beowulf. It is very encouraging, interesting and exciting stuff. Directed by Zemeckis with Neil Gaiman writing? How can this film possibly fail?

[EDIT: The full range of images are now here at film ick, having been pulled from Aint It Cool recently. They are a wonderful advertisement for the upcoming book - and, of course, the film]

[EDIT AGAIN: Of course, nobody wanted these images out there. No. That would be good for the film - and the book from which the images came. So they got heavy and I had to pull them or, essentially, pay out more money than I can ever hope to see. How foolish]
