Angelina Jolie: Lust is Ruthless

Check out this new poster for Angelina Jolie’s upcoming animated feature Beowulf, which is getting the deluxe IMAX treatment. Looks a little Tomb Raider-ish, no?

The Robert Zemeckis‘ (Forrest Gump, Polar Express) film will be released simultaneously in IMAX 3D and regular theaters on Nov. 16.

“IMAX 3D has enabled us to tell stories in a whole new way, and we are very excited to offer moviegoers a chance to experience Beowulf in this incredible format,” said Zemeckis. “IMAX lends itself to the incredible image detail in Beowulf and in 3D, it will transport the audience directly into the story.”

Beowulf will also star Ray Winstone as the warrior Beowulf, Anthony Hopkins, Crispin Glover, and John Malkovich. Sounds like there are a lot of baddies in this movie. Love it!

Beowulf is the inspiration behind Tolkien’s LORD OF THE RINGS

=============================== Go away

The trailer looks inviting. I like these type of movies. If it is anything like “Lords of the Rings”. Epic movies are attracted to young males and you know the English teachers will make the high school student see it and probably write a paper!

Let’s stick to reality and stop promoting tabloids.

The trailer looks really cool. I love epic fantasy/adventure films.

Some info on TOLKIEN and Beowulf (source: wikipedia)

Of Tolkien’s academic publications, the 1936 lecture “Beowulf: the Monsters and the Critics” had a lasting influence on Beowulf research. Lewis E. Nicholson said that the article Tolkien wrote about Beowulf is “widely recognized as a turning point in Beowulfian criticism”, noting that Tolkien established the primacy of the poetic nature of the work as opposed to the purely linguistic elements. He also revealed in his famous article how highly he regarded Beowulf; “Beowulf is among my most valued sources…” And indeed, there are many influences of Beowulf in the Lord of the Rings. When Tolkien wrote, the consensus of scholarship deprecated Beowulf for dealing with childish battles with monsters rather than realistic tribal warfare; Tolkien argued that the author of Beowulf was addressing human destiny in general, not as limited by particular tribal politics, and therefore the monsters were essential to the poem. (Where Beowulf does deal with specific tribal struggles, as at Finnsburg, Tolkien argued firmly against reading in fantastic elements.)

Posh's contract @ 07/04/2007 at 2:10 pm

Anyone read that Posh is making the press sign a contract to not ask her any personal questions at any press conference for the Spice Girls Reunion. The contract is worded exactly like the one Angelina’s lawyers wrote up for the Mighty Heart premiere. Let’s see how much sh*t Posh get? Wonder if the Fox news people or others will attack her also. I doubt it. And that’s what’s so sad. The blantant hypocrisy of those people in the media who constantly single out Angelina she isn’t doing anything wrong. *sigh*

Angie was filming Beowulf around Octomber of 2005. And yes she was pregnant at the time. She was at the very early stage of her pregnancy though. The posters look very dark and misterious. Another movie to anticipate this year.

Thanks Jared!!

Coo1. There are threee epic battles in this story. I could only imagine this fantasy/epic movie on a IMAX. Is there any more art work about this film anywhere?

I can hardly wait!! Way to go Angie!

Don’t forget to see AMH this holiday weekend if you’re not away on vacation. It’s Angelina’s best work yet.

Pregnant Angelina @ 07/04/2007 at 2:26 pm

Yes Angelina was pregnant, was filming this at end of October/early November 2005 at the same time the many pixs of Angelina, Brad, Maddox, and Zahara walking on the beach by their Malibu home were taken. They were all in LA on a break for Angelina to film this after being in Canada together for AOJJ. Brad had on a fedora which looks like one of the ones he wears lately, Maddox was running around all over the beach, and Zahara was in her babybjorn strapped on Angelina. These were the pixs where Brad reached out and put his arm on Angelina, one of their first PDA, which are now many many in number. Neither can now keep their hands and other body parts from being in contact. LOL.

LOL Posh and her PR are doing this to get the nuclear ‘Angelina’ reaction from th (i.e., going batshit crazy because they can’t ask AJ when her last period was) — but of course she won’t get any sh*t because no one really cares, not in the U.S. anyway. The UK might go a bit wack.

To CMAR :)

So, in order to b*tchslap those leeches (like the janice minns etc. of the world) who continue to spew their lying f.i.l.t.h week after week, let’s turn the tables on them. i:e, let’s start revealing THEIR private lives and papparrazi shots on blogs. Seems to me they have made themselves fair game.

Thanks CMAR! Yep lucky for us to have JJ’s to counter these tabloids. Unfortunately, JJ’s has also attracted these hater gnats and anti JP maggots that no matter how you swat, just seems to grow and crawl from any cracks and crevice. Like me trying to get rid of the red ants in my yard. Speaking of which, I gotta go and tackle them. Til later.

Thanks JJ for the new thread. :)

I want to see this because of Dominic Keating - though he’s probably only in the movie for 5 minutes of something like that.

I smell another mighty flop. anything about beowulf is a flop. don’t they get it people don’t care care about some epic poem.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You’re obviuously not college educated and know nothing about great literature and Arthurian Legend. Beowulf is required reading for every English Lit class. This movie will be popular with people in the know about such things.

explanation!!!! @ 07/04/2007 at 2:36 pm

So this is the Oscar winning performance

JARED:

Could you add those fabulous pics I’ve just posted to your entry?
Tks.
