Clash of Titans sucked cocks. Io plays an ageless beauty that serves as some love interest for perseus, it would be more interesting if she stayed a cow during the entire film. The goon squad mostly has two lines "I'm ______" "Blargh I'm ded" The medusa fight was cool, the "Krar-ken" only gets about a minutes on screen, theres a revenge against hades subplot that loses all meaning towards the end, everything else is banal, shit, and boring. Liam Neeson as Zeus was cool, Liam Neeson anything is always cool to me In an hour of Darkness a blind man is the best guide. In an age of Insanity look to the madman to lead the way.

But is it better or worse than the original? Belligerent Pimp wrote: The Man Society just suspended my man card for a week for getting rickrolled by Mrs. Mary Midwestern Housewife.

Mrs.Crawdad wrote:But is it better or worse than the original? Given that both are films of their respective eras, it's kind of a pointless evaluation. The comparison has been made between the relative headway in special effects--the original pioneered still-in-use methods for stop-motion animation and other effects (receiving fitting praise), while the CGI in the 2010 version is so stilted and underengineered that even the appearance of the monstrous Kraken and slithery Medusa can't save this film from it's own shameful demise--the most totally forgettable epic action film to be released this year. While it's clearly a loving attempt to recapture the "it" of the first film, the times have simply changed too much for the movie to retain any real moviegoing value -- not even the price of your ticket. We've got good actors biting the bullet for a paycheck, hiding their guilt and remorse underneath bland costumes and fake beards. Safety + Peace

I heard that they tried to convert it to 3d after it was in the can, but they did it badly, so if you watch it in 3d, i looks like a people's hair is floating several feet in-front of their heads, and other such nonsense.

Hollywood destroys most of the great mythic stories from ancient Greece and Rome: The Iliad: "Troy" -- 2004. Big time suck The Odyssey: the exception with Coen brothers "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Jason and the quest for the Golden Fleece: both versions of "Jason and the Argonauts" Both versions of "The Clash of the Titans" (The Kraken isn't Greek, it's Norse) -- Raping the story of Perseus. Anything ever done on TV or film about Hercules: Too many to mention. "I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Smells like ... victory"
