[callum]

The 13th Warrior?

yeah, i think 12 of them were vikings, 4 of them being members of abba.

[hobbes]

13th Warrior was an excellent movie about Arabs and Vikings.

A modern interpretation of Beowolf.

The book by Michael Crichton was good too - though a little hard to follow as it was an interpretation of Ahmed's (Banderas character) journals.

I remember reading Beowulf in high school.

[Samurai]

yep :)

Apparently the spoken norwegian in the movie is complete jibberish,

So much for Hollywood and cultural accuracy eh? :lol:
