Three CLASH OF THE TITANS Posters!!!
Merrick here...
...with a look at three posters from CLASH OF THE TITANS.
These are, essentially, three of the same posters that were leaked a month or two ago - but officialer. I guess they didn't want to show us Liam on the posters yet - or the huge fucking Kraken we saw on the leaked designs. Still, what we see below is pretty nice...
These come from Yahoo Movies (HERE).
I have a suspicion that this one may sneak up on us. What I've heard thus far suggests a film way cooler than many of us are expecting. We'll see...

Oh, the Avatar talkback? Right.
-
C'mon... you know you will, too.
-
aaaaaaaaaaand GO!
-
It seems very Matinee-worthy. Which I like. Also I am happy for all the Sam Worthington press because I love him for unclean reasons.
-
Nice!

I think that they are trying to draw middle ground...

GOD OF WAR
-
DAY. WILL. REMAIN.
-
Hollywood keeps trying to foist this guy on us - why? Side note: Is he not capable of hair growth?
-
Fuck him and his inability to create a believable American English dialect for some of the biggest films of the last two years. Fuck his being cast in these films without ever proving himself in anything worthwhile. Fuck him for not being able to really act. All he had to do was be "a mans man" according to some, and he landed all these awesome roles he can't pull off. The only reason he got into this and Terminator was because Cameron picked him for Avatar, and I guarantee he ends up being the only thing that isn't spectacular about Avatar. I fucking hate that he can't get rid of his fucking australian accent. If he was a real actor, he'd figure it out. It's a major, important part of it. I fucking hate that he hasn't been in anything good, and yet gets to be in all these huge movies. I also that he is basically not famous at all after all this stuff, because he isn't good or interesting. Anyone seen him on a single talkshow? Nope. He's going to disappear after these movies die down. He doesn't have "it" Sick of him already.
-
TITANS WILL CLASH !!!!
-
...to be as dated as Harry Hamlin's Jim Morrison hair.
Also, Pegasus needs a god damned bath. -
If the posters are to be believed, Perseus is going to run around Greece shouting everyone down at the top of his lungs.
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! -
They all look familiar.
-
I swear to God, the studio has used these taglines because some fucking CRETIN st the top is absolutely paranoid that the mall-dwelling emo Morlocks who will largely be making up the audience for this thing, will go in to the film expecting to see a hero called "Clash of the Titans".
-
"These are, essentially, three of the same posters that were leaked a month or two ago ". That'll teach me.
-
I know it should be the LEAST of the details about the story that bug me but... honestly, when they were working out character designs, did someone think "Yeah, well... it's not like the ancient Greeks were distinct. It's cool if Perseus looks like some bro with a crew cut, dressed like a Roman centurion." Despite being cheesy, Harry Hamlin's portrayal is actually closer to all the classical depictions of the character.
-
Looks cool except for those creature that look like they were stolen right out of Pan's Labyrinth.

The Greeks back then looked nothing like the Greeks today.

As much as I've been flitting all over the TBs extolling my affection for him, I don't think he's a bad actor at all. I though he outclassed Bale in Terminator: Salvation - mostly because Bale wasn't given anything to do but be angry for two hours, but still. If there was anything salvageable in T:S it was his performance, which was understated and heartfelt, even with a wildly uneven accent.I've read a few interviews with the man and he seems intelligent, affable and down-to-earth. He's yet to prove himself as a keeper, but he's done nothing that I've seen so far to be judged disposable yet. He's an unknown quantity, more or less, and that's what makes him appealing.Besides, Crow3711, you seem jealous.
-
....any more?
-
along with predators and the a-team, this is one of my most anticipated for next year
-
Perseus, mate! Throw another shrimp on the barbie, Andromeda... I can't manage to get rid of my accent... no sir... but I shall save you!
-
Though I don't have the insane hatred of some TB'ers, he's not a good actor.
-
..but combined. Looks like a decent fantasy, but with all the "Greekness" sucked out. I hate the stupid crew-cut, and I'm already sick of this dude (must have a hell of an agent). I'll just continue to watch my '81 Titans dvd and catch this on Tbs one day at a friend's house.
-
We do know what the ancient greeks looked and dressed like, they produced a plethora of artifacts...and this aint' it. Hamlin was a lot closer.
-
The trailers were rubbish pop video nonsense - and these posters reflect that equally.
Bring back Ray H. -
..this isn't aimed toward us. It's for the myspace generation; and they'll most likely eat it up. There will probably be a million lit up phones flashing in theaters showing this all across the country. This'll still do pretty well.
-
We know Medusa doesn't make it with her head... Imagine if the poster for Star Wars showed the Death Star exploding or the one for Crying Game showed the chick's dick?
-
Actually made me laugh
-
Which guarantees this to be "almost good" just like everything else he has done. I swear, the guy is perpetually on the verge of making something "actually good" instead of just, pretty good or okay. Seriously, remember the hype for his Incredible Hulk. It ended up being...just okay. This will miss all the important moments for leterrier to blow up more stuff and have worthington yelling. Blahhhh
-
if so, i'm there.
-
Now in my top 3 most anticipated for 2010.
-
Pegasus was white - black horses are not as smart and they tend to steal
-
Rock n Roll sandal epic.
-
the ancient Greeks didn't look "Greek". The Greeks today look like Turks 'cause the Turks were raping them for about five hundred years. And yes, the Greeks are still pretty pissed about it.
-
That would've been a better tagline.
-
This is the poster we are all more excited for! http://tinyurl.com/ybrqpw8
-
...the trailer. At least the posters put the fantasy elements upfront, which is what Clash of the Titans is all about. -- Nick from City of Kik http://nickleshi.blogspot.com
-
...but then..so does the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 3. ::CUE THE FANBOI FAG WHINERS MAKING HATE COMMENTS!:::
-
pieces from the original, giant scorpions, Moirae, etc. instead of gleaning other stuff from Hellenistic mythology. Pegasus was in the Bellerophon story, not Perseus's.
-
that is all
-
by making these awesome looking films. Notice how his name isn't on any of those posters.
-
any of Worthington's films are, but they're definitely trying to make him the next Mel Gibson, Russel Crowe or Hugh Jackman; the difference is, those three are legitimately good actors, (even if two of them are stone-cold fuck nuts).
-
And the original is one of my all time favorites from my childhood. So why am I not excited for this movie? When I first heard they were doing a remake I was excited. Then I saw Worthington's ghetto-ass armor. It looks pretty shitty and dull. Then I saw the trailer. Wait... this looks like a 300 sequel, not Clash of the Titans. The style of this film appears to be extremely different from what I imagined and hoped for. Instead of an epic, character and story driven fantasy film, it looks like we are getting another mindless action adventure movie. More shit from Hollywood to feed to the masses, most of whom aren't as dumb as Hollywood insists on treating us. So. Fuck this movie. And fuck Sam Worthington, an anamatronic young Arnold Schwartzeneggar robot actor would be more entertaining than him.
-
Hey guys. I'm sitting here in Gordon Jones' Austin mansion waiting for the party at the Highball this evening. These posters have me pumped up, because there may be a chance we'll be seeing C of the T tomorrow. Of course, we may not, but the suspense is killing me. Word on the street is that this may be the best BNAT ever, or it may not. It's all a mystery. Anyway, I'm about to ring the butler to bring me another brandy to calm my nerves.
-
head
-
That's my dream, too.
-
Damn, didn't expect that. Now it won't look original when they do it in the Percy Jackson movie...that is if they make its sequels.
-
This is goign to be the year of Sam Worthington. He just oozed star status in Terminator.I'm getting a strong LOTR vibe from the marketing materials so far, and that's a very good thing!
-
Just saying'. Misleading title.
-
good because this looks like The Scorpion King based on the images.
-
i dunno. i never know
-
Does Sam scream in every shot? Almost all the stills I've seen have him screaming, and he screams throughout the trailer. Anyway, I'm still excited about this one, for the moment.
-
i guess hes a fine actor, and i dont hate him.. but i just dont find him super likable either. he doesnt have a cool or definable look or style that makes it okay for me to dig him in a heterosexual man way. (you know, like a brad pitt, or johnny depp.) the only reason i even recognize him is because he's been cast in almost every movie I've wanted to see lately.I have no point.
-
The feeling is very odd indeed soup74 because these are the things which can kind of ruin a movie experience for most viewers. You wouldn't want to see the same actor in major roles on evey big blockbuster that comes out. I have mixed feelings...like jealousy and frustration but just like you...I have no point ! Just rambling...
-
designed by the Illuminati. They're testing out their new robot actors so they have more control over the Hollywood propaganda. The purpose of making him soulless and dull is so American males think that's the way to act and therefor the working slave class will self perpetuate the chemical and psychological brain damage that has been perpetrated on them by the bank mafia centered in London, England.
-
have you seen this?
-
I wish they'd made them more like the old one from the 70's (late 70's I presume?). It would have been cool to try and match both worlds. We can barely see Medusa's head...just a buch of teenie snakes...and a black pegasus? Weird...I'm not a horse racist but he (or it) was clearly white....as depicted in every Greek mythological image of Pegasus!
-
Are very amateur photoshop work, that first one doesn't even look like Sam. Third one looks interesting idea, but logo looks a little shitty. Trying to get excited about Clash but these aren't helping.
-
But since I am a sucker for these kind of films... and a true hypocrite, I will go see Clash Of The Titans and giggle when Sam shows his muscle(s)...I'm ashamed of myself....
-
your face is predicatble
-
That cracked me the fuck up!
-
I am so there.
-
It has 2 eyes / 1 nose / 1 pair of lips / 2 cheekbones / mercifully free of pimples / SO FREAKING PREDICTABLE !!! Hey Omar ! Thanks...I'm here all week ! (sadly...)
-
I kinda like the black horse. I don't know what some of you Classical myth lovers (and I am one of you) are complaining about when it comes to his Roman armor and whatnot. Aside from that it looks dumb. If that's your complaint, carry on; but if you're just whining about anachronisms and not staying true to the myths, well—didja ever see the original? Sweet Cerberus, it's loaded with all manner of things that aren't true to the myth. Pegasus springs from the bloody stump of Medusa's neck. Perseus has winged shoes, not the horse. The Kraken is not from Greek mythology, but rather Norse legends. Of course there's no R2-D2 owl, no 2-headed dog, or Calibos. But all those things added up to a movie I loved as a kid, so I'm not complaining about it not adhering to the book. But I will complain that that scorpion is too big. Going from horse to dinosaur size is was a dumb idea. (As dumb as the guy's haircut. Where's the beards, man? Beards rule!) Ah, I love to nitpick.
-
But this does not look interesting. Maybe because I have fond memories of the original as a kid. I don't remember it being a hardcore action film but a more adventure type film with some scary moments.
If I wasn't familiar with the original, maybe this would look better?

THIS IS ANCIENT GREECE!!!

I got my first boner seeing Clash of the Titans at the cinema when I was ten. Seeing Judi Bowkers 60ft ass on the big screen got me my penchent for big asses. I suppose the ass in the new version will be CGI. Rubbish!
They could have at least waited until Harryhausen was in position to actually spin in his grave. -
Hmm, what else can we remake... 9 to 5, maybe?
-
"Clash of the Titans" was the very first movie I saw in the theaters at the young age of four. Gave me nightmares for weeks, but I loved it. Can't wait to see the new one. 30 years is plenty of time for a remake.
-
Meh. Looks like a bad videogame.
-
Whoever mentioned her: Hell yes, she was hot. I always thought if I could go back in time and bang a chick from that era it would be either her or Ornella Muti (Princess Aura from 1980's "Flash Gordon") Persis Khammbatta would be in there, too.
But alas, it is just a dream. -
he was awesome, wasn't he? One of Harryhausen's best!
They'll never top the original. Aside from the obvious, it had the pegasus-taming, the two headed dog, the vulture, a dude's carcass on fire, maggie smith's giant marble head... Harry Hamlin was badass, imho. -
...let alone staring in them? His agent must be the World's Greatest Hypnotist!
-
What a douche. What does he think he's doing being a NIDA graduate & spending over 10 years working in film and television and on stage to then go and be approached by Hollywood producers and directors with a string of high profile roles. He should have told 'em to fuck off. He owed that to us. Stupid cunt deserves our outrage. RARRR! talkbakers! we rule supreme!
-
No I'm serious.
-
In an Esquire mag article when Terminator came out Worthington was portrayed as an obsessive type. Apparantly he has pictures of a lot of actors he's competing with in his apartment on his wall, and he's sort of mapped out their strengths and weaknesses and tries to figure out a way to bring something to potential jobs that these other actors cannot. He was also in an Australian film version of "Macbeth" where he was kind of a long haired emo type of person. That one may be his best performance, but certainly not the manly man stuff he's doing now. I think with the roles he's getting, he's just striking while the iron is hot and cashing in, can't fault a guy for that, who knows where his career will end up.
-
I'll watch Avatar 'cause it's Cameron but I'm not onboard for this Worthing horseshit? Fuck this fucking guy.
-
anyone? No one? psh
-
ha ha ha! RAGE_AGAINST_MARTIN_SHEEN - excellent name
-
I'm just saying.
-
High five.
-
ARE YOU SAYING THIS MOVIE WILL HAVE A LOT OF SCREAMING!!!!!??? AND SHOUTING!!!!???? AND GUYS GOING "ARRRGGHHH!!!!" AND "NOOOOOOOOO!!!!"IS THAT WHAT YOU MEAN!!!!????M
That's more of a 300 thing... which is a great movie. I don't think it fits this one well though. -
and am always disappointed when its not Sam Rockwell in the movie i'm watching
-
I always confuse Sam Huntington (from fanboys) with Sam Rockwell and am disappointed when Sam Rockwell doesn't turn up in the movie i'm watching... I have no idea who the fuck Sam Worthington is. But needless to say, am disappointed that he also isn't Sam Rockwell
-
The first time on HBO in 8th grade, and I remember eating black beans and rice then for the first time. I also remember it was the 1st movie with Medusa in it that I could watch with being piss scared. In second grade I had seen a Peter Cushing Hammer Studios(I assume) film with Medusa that Fuck'd up my wee little brain. I don't remember what I was eating that day. Between seeing Medusa and Carrie White's Hand coming up out of her grave, I ended up sleeping with the lights on until... like last night.
-
was the Peter Cushing Medusa flick that messed me up so badly.
-
FLOCKA!!

why do people keep saying "god of war"?
by player_two_has_entered_the_game
they do know that game was based on all this shit right?
-
Probably my favorite characters from the original, aside from Medusa. Glad to see they were incorporated into this questionable adventure.
-
Worthington isn't the Australian Shitty LaBeef; he's the Australian Channing Tatum!
-
I wasn't impressed with the trailer at all. Slo mo jumps etc.
-
God of War took the stories and gave them a unique (at the time) look, this is ripping that look off.
-
Dec 12, 2009 12:54:56 PM CST
I agree about that they shouldn't show Medussa's head
by coughlins laws
in the poster. That's pretty ridiculous and gives away a major plot point for the generation they're aiming to get in the seats that most likely haven't seen the original...
-
...it looks like they've turned what could have been a great re-make into heavy metal music video nonsense.
Could be wrong...I hope I am - a new "Clash of the Titans" done in a classy way would be a great treat. -
the never of these bunch of retards, claiming that Sam Worthington can't act and that he's shit, all after seeing him in just one, ONE, movie where he managed to out-act the mighty powerful Bale, and in fact was the only good thing of that mediocre piece of shit Mc G. wanted us to believe was a movie... The never of these fucking retards who strongly believe in their little minds that they are great critics and know talent when they see it. hahaha, I laugh at you talbackers, haters and other retards.. hahahaha
-
ohh, that's right, you're fucking nobody, thank you very much
-
OOOOOOO..its a big surprise who plays calibos. if they fuck up calibos they can eat my shit.
-
Think how many people will be turned to stone cause they don't know any better.
-
poor man's Russell Crowe.
-
Thought they would be all of it. I know it is not due to spelling and grammar checking!
-
I really enjoyed Leterrier's "The Hulk," thus I'm not surprised this new film is looking so good. I'll check it out.
-
did i actually see some comments about them givin away parts of the movie ? its a remake...every advert for the movie has said its a remake...common sense says watch the original before u complain...i like that they are honoring the original by keeping stuff like the blind witches and pegasus, and the medusa head....the medusa head confirms that the kraken will be in the movie, or something too powerful that only the gaze of medusa can stop it...add to the fact that worthington is looking up while holding it...flame away boys
-
BEARDS RULE !!!!!! Where are the beards???
-
I'll throw in my support for Rage Against Martin Sheen to win this talkback thread. His post was freaking hilarious and his name made me choke on my water !
-
Anyone who uses the term 'Myspace Generation' needs their head examined. Myspace it over. Anyway, Sam is great - decent actor, not too many histrionics. I predict he will go far.
-
I disagree with old school comparisons. For example, most movie posters and trailers: "SEE THE GIANT SQUID!" "FEAR THE HALF-MAN HALF-MOSQUITO!" Etc etc...
-
Mythology is more interesting than left-wing propaganda cartoons.
-
I have no problem with the guy, but how is it that he keeps showing up in so many of these MAJOR genre blockbusters? Spread the wealth/roles, Hollywood.
-
Dec 12, 2009 4:59:39 PM CST
Yep, you can hear Worthington screaming in these posters...
by mrmysteryguest
-
I just saw it and its a really good movie. Incredible acting all around and the story is a lot different than what I expected.
-
So Avatars sucks and so does this does it? How about you actually SEE the films first. Worthless, whining little gimps.
-
...the current batch of around 900 just don't suffice.
-
Mark my word!
-
Cool. Hope it isn't like 300! Watch this:

ALL-powerful BALE. get it right, troll
-
Welcome to the fold, brother.
-
The director is an action hack; witness Transporter 2 and The slogjobbing of The Incredible Hulk. Perseus is another buzz-cut GI and clanking armour; an ugly gritty grunt who looks as much like the son of Zeus as any drunken rapist in a bar in Saigon. Everything has been de-beautified, monsterized and covered in macho WWE sweat to persuade ignorant paranoid men with small dicks that they're not watching anything as faggy as Alexander was or Troy should have been. Everyone is ugly; the story is some crap about saving the world from the minions of the underworld (no eternal romance with Andromeda - even heterosexual romance is too faggy for men brought up impaled on Frank Miller's giant cock). This is stupid and will be soulless crap.

It fuckin rocks.

the second trailer does look much better than the first. You get to see more of medusa and the Kraken. The Kraken looks alot like the Rancor from Jedi though.
-
in fact their skin was a bit darker than the modern Greeks.
-
you ignorant fuckturd racist
-
i havent seen him before,and he was the only thing i liked in that POS

looks pretty cool but the "rock music" crowd will hate it even more. so will the "dont show everything" crowd.

"Why is Pegasus BLACK?
by Professor_Monster Dec 11th, 2009
02:13:32 PM
Pegasus was white - black horses are not as smart and they tend to steal"
Yeah, way to be retardedly racist you smarmy prick. -
That looks great, still not sure with the rest of the movie, plus the song choice in the trailer is cringe worthy.
-
the berserker was it?
-
come to think of it
-
He's like the new Russell Crowe, without all the drinking and acting like an asshole in public situations.
-
is like complaining that reviews of TITANIC gave away the fact that the boat sank. Doesn't anyone know his classical mythology? Come to think of it, I guess most young people don't these days. BTW, yeah, Worthington is hot.
-
I like Worthington, but his accent does swing out a fair bit. But that said, aside from this. Why the fuck should he have an American accent? Terminator and Avatar don't have any precedent that decree him to be American.
-
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side.
-
shes just ugly
-
this movie is not 300 and has nothing to do with 300.

The kraken probably looks a bit like Abomination because they were designed by the same guy:
http://www.aaron-sims.com/creatures.html -
As I was looking through his pics I see the designs for the “Specialist” robots from A.I. just as I'm sat here watching them end scenes from the movie on T.V, weird.
-
Release the cgi shit-fest! Let's see 'em turn that into stone.
-
maybe acting like an asshole in public is not an act. maybe.
-
Sam who..? He could be the next Russell Crowe, a man's man type of actor/star. But I get a coldness from him from would keep him from that stature.
-
The new trailer is fucking sick. You pussies are whining about hairstyles, historically accurate armor, and trailer music? Piss off. I see very faithful creature design to the original, and I cannot wait for this.
-
the new trailer is beyond awesome, I don't care what anybody says. And, if this movie does make bank hope for a God of War movie to be made with a good director, budget, actor playing Kratos, and a production studio that could give a fuck about the rating.
-
it was silly and entertaining but far from a masterpiece. This is one film that needs a remake.
-
Those posters looks like Royo´s illustrations.
