[edit] Beowulf

I've read that this movie is meant as an allegory for the ancient story Beowulf, any official information? (there are a large number of similarities)

[edit] Plot

I don't think the plot summary for this is entirely correct. From what I remember about the movie there wasn't suppost to only be one male dragon in the world. Van Sant even mentions that they had a run in with another male dragon. Is this correct or am I wrong?

It's been a while since I've last seen the movie, a real long while, but I'm pretty sure it was only a single male dragon. JBK405 01:12, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

That is the intention of the movie as far as I can tell, silly as it is. Perhaps they refer instead to one male dragon in England, thus allowing the English dragon population to die out and humans in that area to recover. Darth Tanner

emmm i dont know whether u want to put this in the trivia part but the opening scene at the construction site was actually filmed in Dublin, Ireland and the castle was actually down in Wicklow, Ireland so that technically doesnt make it an entireally British film

[edit] Trivia/Coincidence

In the trivia section it claims that this film "coincidentally" premiered on Sept. 11th 2002 in another country. This is not really a noteworthy coincidence (nor interesting trivia). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.14.100.36 (talk) 08:26, 12 December 2006 (UTC).

It's noteworthy due to ABC's pulling the film from broadcast due to sensitivites over terrorism, since that gives the statement background and context. If that had not have occurred, then yes, I would agree that it is not noteworthy. MalikCarr 08:07, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
