Funny how Hrothgar's sin of gluttony manifested itself in a twisted, malformed ghoul like Grendel who hates all forms of merriment and hedonism. And for Beowulf, it's a mirror of his Lust, his Strength and his Power- a dragon. I love the pretty literal metaphor there, brilliant!

@@sirorliktheironclad Ogres tend to be much Fatter in Nature more Obese while Trolls are typically depicted as Skinny dwarf like creatures like what you see on Harry Potter while in Grendel's case he is a 20 Ft Tall Troll born from Hrothgar's Excessive Gluttony and Greed.

That’s just an absolutely genius piece of insight - The seemly disjointed and unconnected nature of the 3 acts of the original epic, Grendel, Grendel’s Mother and The Dragon and it’s horde actually *only* make sense if Beowulf is *lying* about having slain Grendel’s witchy scorpion-Woman Mother, after he entered her swamp-cave lair to battle her alone.... and it explains why Grendel is Hrothgar’s Bain, just as The Dragon becomes Beowulf’s - plus it provides the context to understand why Beowulf responds to the negging criticism by the resident pessimistic cynic at the King’s Hall by taunting him with rumours he claims to have heard of his fratricidal and incestuous family circumstances. As Neil Gaiman wrote of a The God of Mischief : “Loki makes The World More Interesting - but Less Safe. He is The Father of Monsters, The Author of Woes - The Sly God.”

Yep, the connections and plotholes have been noted numerous times throughout history and Zemeckis deliberately insinuated the that the original story of Beowulf had been tampered with over the centuries in order to better fit Christian sensibilities like so many others.

There's just one problem... Beowulf left the Danes and returned home to the Geats after "finishing" his mission. So Grendel's mother followed him back?

This dragon is extremely similar looking to Vermithrax from Dragonslayer. The body type, the shape of the head, shape of the tail, the two fingers on the wings, even the sound it makes when it's about to breathe fire sounds just like Vermithrax.'

she blasts grendels head off with some sort of magic bolt. Its a demonstration of her power. she can kill Beowulf at any time she pleases. demonstrated by sniping grendels head off out of nowhere without beowulf reacting in time.....

He could have still slain her if he wanted too, he had hero power. The same that allowed him to kill Grendel with his bear hands whereas his counterparts could barely hurt him with massive blades. He even says "I need no sword to slay you". Guy was just too damn horny
