Another tease for the much-debated BEOWULF has hit Apple.com – and this one still hasn’t convinced me that this looks like anything more than an X-Box game or a sequel to FINAL FANTASY: THE SPIRITS WITHIN… That said, those who watched the 3-D footage at Comic-Con swear it was mind-blowingly terrific, and I suppose we’ll have to buy that until we all see it for ourselves.

“Trailer #2″ is pretty much more of the same… It sure seems like it was pretty heavily influenced by 300 – toward the end I swore Ray Wintone was about to declare “This is SPARTA!” And personally I’m in favor of doing away with the electric guitar.
