sounds interesting, but I can't see dicaprio as viking really.
Anyway, as long as they don't put horns on the helmets...

Thhis could be very good. Gibson may be bat-shit crazy, but he's a stickler for cultural detail when he makes movies. Could be very good indeed.

By the way, it's not viking related, but todat the trailer for Ridlet Scott/Russel Crowe's Robin Hood movie came out and it looks frigging amazing:

I think this will be fantastic. A large budget viking movie is just what I've been waiting for. And if Mel Gibson directs you know it's going to be full on, with violence and realistic looking atmosphere. I won't be overly bothered if it's not 100% accurate, because I love 'Braveheart' and 'Apocolypto' which we know aren't exactly accurate. So I say bring it on, I'm really looking forward to this. It's going to look fantastic if nothing else.
