Dead owl on the car


Who killed the owl? I did not see the symbolism in this scene and thought it was pointless. I actually thought it was sad and was not explored. Liked this film a lot though, other than the dead owl. :-(

It just 'died', mid-flight, with impeccable comic timing. Note this was the only way that a 'Viking burial' could be incorporated into the story (regardless of comedic intent) as funeral pyres are -of course- illegal in the UK. Personally I thought it was a hoot!

P.S. A message for anyone who thinks that a real owl was killed for the production: Twit-to-you!
