While this seems at times to be pointless silliness, let me remind you that anything that popularizes the Middle Ages is good for medievalists (even if it requires endless patient explanation of why it wasn't like that) and I am writing a book on masculinities and medievalisms, so this fits perfectly. And don't forget: it's educational!

A spoiler in the "educational" pdf:
THE DRAGON - Portrayed as a delicate, golden young man whose anger and hatred transform him into a terrifying, fire-wielding monster,the dragon proves Beowulf’s most implacable foe.
Whaaaaaaaaaaat.....?
Oh, Neil. You make me sad.
Neil's making a packet of money. He has nothing to worry about (assuming the back of his house hasn't fallen down again).
So who turns into the dragon? Do Beo and Jolie get it on, too?
