My brother and I were just talking about this a few weeks ago, wondering when it was opening. He's a huge fan of the books, though, so he's really looking forward to it. I just think it looks really pretty, heh.

I does look pretty doesn't it? And since I'm shallow when it comes to visual pretty things I can forgive the wonkyness of the plot. (also it's fun to spot the Nordic actors. Stellan Skarsgård is present I see. Hee.)

And as far as I can tell it opens December 26th all over the Nordic countries, so yay.

Well, it is one of the most expensive Scandinavian films ever made, so they'll probably try to release it abroad to earn back some money- which means there's a good chance it will come to Germany.

Looks a bit like "Kingdom of Heaven", but I still like these adventure-middle-ages films

Hee. Yes - there are parts of it I think looks exactly like "Kingdom of Heaven", but it will be fun to see how they have imagined the Middle Ages. And hopefully there will not be to many battle-scenes. ;)

I got sold when the dude flipped his bloody sword from hand to hand.

Incidentally also the scene I liked best. Have I mentioned that you have such excellent taste? Hee.

I know enough German that it almost makes sense... and then doesn't

That would be weird yes. I've had sort of the same experience with Dutch (due to trading there are quite a lot of Dutch words in Norwegian and vice versa) Walking around in Amsterdam and getting half of what is said.
