Clash of the Titans the remake, updated version is sure to please film-goer’s love of action and interest in Greek Mythology, Gods, Goddesses, Heroes, and War.
The plot: The mortal son of the god Zeus embarks on a perilous journey to stop the underworld and its minions from spreading their evil to Earth as well as the heavens.*IMDB
The original Film version made in 1981 (image) written by Beverly Cross and Directed by Desmond Davis is about Perseus’ quest to save Princess Andromeda battling the Kraken monster. Perseus also encounters Medusa, the vain female turned monster with hair of snakes, who turns all who look upon her to stone. Mythology lovers will enjoy the film adaptation from 1981 including gods and goddess Zeus, Hera, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Athena, Hephasteus and more.
The soon to be released version doesn’t appear it will be merely a remake of the 1981 version, but will include a few new versions to the myth. Characters included Perseus, Hades, Zeus, Poseidon, Andromeda, Athena, Apollo and more.
Titans were a race of elder gods who ruled during the Golden Age, overthrown by the younger gods, Olympians, in Greek Mythology. Dated to be released in March 2010.
Enjoy the movie!
1981 Version
Part 1
Thanks – Clash Of The Titans was one of the best movies ever. It will be interesting to see how the remake compares.
I can’t wait to see the new one! First things first, see the original!
I really like the original. I just hope Medusa gets to speak in the new one
There’s something so cool about older films, I’m just not sure how the new one will compare. Visually, it will surely be stunning, but if they have those cheesy Hollywood comic relief lines, I’ll be very disappointed. It’s all about the writing, and it seems writing takes a back seat to the visuals these days.
I agreed Celtaur and friends, I love the medusa, I guess the modern movie is better then, in making a modern medusa, any way sometimes the old movies are better, maybe they put more energy on the movie, and was not thinking much about money. Lets just hope this new movie is better than the old one. Well let’s hope for a very good one then!!
