Horny Vikings |
| | The Saga of Biorn (Web Animation) / int_39441318 |
comment |
Horny Vikings: Averted. The film, being Danish, uses a wide variety of historically-accurate helmets, none of which have horns. Also, none of the Vikings themselves ever engage in activities associated with this trope. Played straight only in Valhalla, where boozing and throwing weapons around is done for fun, and new arrivals are given a horned helmet where it would be appropriate as ceremonial attire. It has dragons as its horns. |

Post-Mortem Conversion: Deconstructed. Biorn is a Norse pagan through-and-through, and would not want anything to do with getting a Christian burial after he falls honorably in battle. Especially when it stops him from getting to Valhalla! |

comment |
Plague of Good Fortune: Biorn is 'saved' from death in battle with several seemingly superior opponents by a series of incredibly unlikely strokes of 'good' luck that kills them before battle is joined. Biorn starts out amused, becomes suspicious by the third or fourth one, and by the end is reduced to frothing rage over the (un)fairness of it all. |

Fluffy Cloud Heaven: Exaggerated, deconstructed, and subverted in the case of Christian Heaven. Biorn ends up reaching Valhalla, only for it to switch at the last minute to Heaven, whose tranquility and lack of booze and sharp objects make it exactly the fate Biorn was hoping to avoid. He is horrified. |

Light Is Not Good |

comment |
Light Is Not Good: As far as Biorn is concerned; the Christian Heaven looks exactly like the agonizingly boring Helheim that he's trying to avoid. |

Determinator: Impaled on a rock by a sword, Biorn's response is to stab the Troll in the eye! |

Screaming Warrior: Most of the warriors, but especially Biorn, who has a magnificent roar which we hear very often. |

Hell of a Heaven |
| | The Saga of Biorn (Web Animation) / int_e7466f83 |
comment |
Hell of a Heaven: The Christian Heaven is presented as equivalent to the Norse Helheim, the home of the unworthy dead who die of old age or disease. Both are essentially tranquil and unchanging places, exactly what Biorn seeks to avoid. When Biorn dies saving a convent of nuns and they repay him posthumously with a Christian burial, he ends up going to their Heaven instead of his Valhalla. |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Biorn ends up in Heaven eventually... but it's the wrong kind of Heaven. |

All Trolls Are Different: In this case they're blue, skinny, and taller than a church, so it looks more like an ice jotunn. |
