Clash Of The Titans 3 Already In The Works

I like the remake a lot. It was exactly what a good remake was supposed to be. Acknowledging the original without excessive reverence, an update of the production and story to take advantage of modern technology and sensibilities, and at least the appearance of actors enjoying their parts.

Compare something like Tron Legacy which TOTALLY IGNORES the internet, includes ninja CG bruce boxleitner for no reason, with audience facepalming action, and works so hard to setup a franchise that it doesn't have anything going in itself.

This film actually made me angry. The original film wasn't great, but it was a fun little adventure with Ray Harryhausen effects. The remake, aside from being just another mediocre CGI-action snorefest, seemed to actually spit on the original. Bubo the owl gets thrown out with the trash, everyone's wearing some kind of heavy metal version of Dark Ages-era leather armour instead of anything remotely period, Perseus is an angry young man railing against the system who can't been seen riding a white pegasus so he has to get a black one--ugh. I just couldn't shake the feeling that it was made by a couple of 14-year-old XBLA addict stereotypes (or some committee appealing to said stereotypes) who wanted to get rid of anything "faggy" from the original.

I'm not going to lie, Clash of the Titans is one of the few films that I have actually legitimately fallen asleep while watching when I wasn't even tired. I know Warner Brothers is desperate for another franchise they can pump out for the next umpteen years, but I can't honestly believe this will be it.

Clash of the Titans wasn't a good film. The first BBC episode of Merlin was better at Titans game and that includes comparing special affects budget. The Percy Jackson film was better and that was a bad bad film compared to the books

Eh the first one was alright but I really don't see the movie needing 1 sequel let alone 2. One right after the other.

I was wholly underwhelmed by Clash of The Titans, I remember the part where Perseus was supposedly flying around the Kraken's flailing tentacles, and the mediocreness of the scene actually broke my engagement with the film so that I was totally aware I was sat the cinema, thinking "Everything about this scene tells me I'm supposed to be amazed and awed, but, it's really just passable."

I couldn't actually tell you what the movie lacked, it just lacked... something. It failed to give the feel that I was watching an epic Greek story. Maybe it was the liberties they took with the mythology: the modern take on the Gods and men's rebellion, and trying to make Hades the villain. I mean, the whole theme of the film was almost pro-athiest!
