Bring it on. Nothing disturbing about spurting blood, I've seen it all before in Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven and 300, and if it's going to look as silly as it sounds, so be it. My only fear is that we see the actual pie-making process, which is the gruesome and gory part of it. Anyway, a trailer can do wonders for one's expectations. Why did I ever doubt Burton's eye for sweetly beautiful imagery? It's Victorian London for goodness sake, how much more Burton can you get?

Anyway, as for Beowulf, I'm curious, but as an animation fan I've always took to heart what Disney once said: that the key wasn't imitation, but reminding an audience of something. They may be barking up the wrong tree. Still, Zemeckis is brilliant and we're talking about one of the most influential tales in all fiction.
