Indeed. In fact there was a greater flurry of interest among my students for "300" than for Beowulf, though the students I'm actually teaching Beowulf to have been quite keen to see the latter.
If the movie version of Beowulf has some good repeatable lines, it should be all set. My 18-year-old goes around saying "This is SPARTAAA" and "Tonight we dine in HELLL" all the time and I'm not even sure he actually made it to see "300"
