THIS! IS! SPAR! TA! I! AM! BEOWULF! WE! ARE! MAR! SHALL!
Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!

Anybody else notice the tendency on the part of movie characters playing "tough" roles nowadays to really bellow who or what they are? Too fascistic for my tastes...

1. I'll be back... go ahead, make my day... are ya feeling lucky, punk
how about, "I'm on top of the world, ma!"

if a movie comes up with a good catch phrase, it makes it more memorable.

3. I haven't seen Beowulf
But couldn't LoTR sort of balance out these medieval/ancient style movies what with the ragtag band of hobbits and whatnot going against the Orcs and Urukai?

21. Oh no
a real tear jerker the whole way through

I happen to have some direct connections to the tragedy (not that I lost anyone) as my entire family went to Marshall and a few were in school at the time

Buddies BUDDIES of mine told me that they cried through the whole thing- Imean guys sitting around watching it

Very sad.
