    Yeah....I was a little afraid that might happen. It seems a number of the creature designs are reminiscent of the original though. But...yeah

    What I so far can see is that it ain't nowhere near the classic from 1981. Mixing cheap metal music with ancient greece, horrible combination imo.

    "Titans will clash"

    Pretty horrible slogan! :/

    But I'm gonna give this film a chance, hopefully the trailer doesn't do it full justice

    It's pretty obvious that Hollywood is running low on ideas. However, If this disappoints; there's always Madame Tutli Putli (Stop-motion short that was made in '07).

    The Graeae (the old women who share a single eye), remind me an awful lot of the baby-eating monster from "Pan's Labyrinth."
    I'm also hoping this doesn't turn out to be as much of a brainless "no special effect is too big" action fest as it appears in the trailer.

    Holy crap, you're so right!... I thought the original wasn't good in the first place so a remake was a pretty alright idea with me, but this just has no personality of its own... I friggin' hate the Snyder-directing style of the superfast/superslow motion editing...
    LONG LIVE YOKO KANNO!!!

    This is just too over-the-top for its own good. Why not let the District 9 guy direct instead of Zack Snyder, goddammit.

    The Kraken looks like a realistic version of the one from God of War II.

    "Astronomy offers an aesthetic indulgence not duplicated in any other field. This is not an academic or hypothetical attraction and should require no apologies, for the beauty to be found in the skies has been universally appreciated for unrecorded centuries."

    In CLASH OF THE TITANS, the ultimate struggle for power pits men against kings and kings against gods. But the war between the gods themselves could destroy the world. Born of a god but raised as a man, Perseus (Sam Worthington) is helpless to save his family from Hades (Ralph Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Liam Neeson) and unleash hell on earth.
    What the fuck?? Yeah, let's completely throw out the story of the original movie, not to mention the original mythological story of Perseus.

    What did you expect? It's Hollywood, they'll take a big shit on something you like (example a book or video game or a movie they say they gonna remake) and then pisses all over your face and skull-fuck you when you go see it. Nothing from Hollywood suprises me any longer, except that of that they won't destroy something you like.

    I dont get it either - eg - I think he's hot and I dont know why! He's not spectacularly good looking. Just there's something about him on screen that is niiiiice.

    Oh and he's Aussie - so YAY.

    maybe there's nothing wrong with that. Maybe it would help if they got rid of the cheesy rock.

    Yes, despite my earlier complaints, I have been seduced by the eye candy of the trailer. Wow. Awesome as it was to see the Kraken, though, I can't help but feel that they gave too much of it away in the trailer. I think it takes away much of the feeling of anticipation now that we've already been given a clear, sustained look at the "final boss" monster.

    I hope it will be a very good movie not just in the visual effects but also in the story plot too.
