![Beowulf [Blu-ray]](http://cdn.hometheaterforum.com/a/a1/50x50px-ZC-a1a371b8_B001AII4RM-61ErE-1GdFL.jpg)
There is an obvious linear path from Gertie to Oswald and Snow White to the wonders of Pixar.
Paramount's Beowulf takes animation, and specifically digital animation to the next level in the artistry of animated cinema.
Capturing live action and digitizing it for effect has been around for a number of years, but Beowulf is something else, and those who have seen it screened in 3-D, or as the new DVD exists, in 2-D will attest to that.
I doubt that anyone needs background here, so I'll stick to a very few words.
More aren't necessary.
When one considers those rare High definition discs that are acknowledged as "reference" quality, Beowulf takes a place as what can be justifiably considered a "standard" against which others must now be judged.
A single word about the visual and sonic quality of Paramount's new HD DVD of Beowulf?
Perfect!
Simply Perfect.
And Very Highly Recommended.
This is a disc that must be a part of any serious home video library.
