[Melusine]

It's true we don't know the exact pronounciation, but I'm not too bothered by that. If I hear Mozart's Requiem performed, the Latin doesn't make me cringe - I find it beautiful even though it might not sound precisely like it used to when it was actually a living, spoken language. I wonder if they'll go for Church Latin or Classic Latin... I think if they'd use Classic Latin (e.g. semper kreskis, aut dekreskis instead of semper creshees oat decreshees, kailestis instead of tsheylestis) it would sound less anglicised. And take for instance the Elvish spoken in LOTR - most of the actors manage very well to sound authentic and to mask any English accents. I think it could be done and I think it's a very very nice idea. Who cares if it's not perfect? I agree it would suck if they spoke Latin with thick English accents (Dutch and German pronounciation of Latin comes much closer to the original, that much is known) but if they avoid that trap, I like the idea. And I think the film itself might be good too - will have to watch the trailer first to be sure. [img]smile.gif[/img]
