Nov 11 2009'Clash of the Titans' Trailer: This Sweet Music Makes Me Think Something Awesome Should Be Happening!
Imagine if Hercules: The Legendary Journeys had just a few thousand more dollars in its budget. How many extra eight or nine hours Kevin Sorbo could have afforded to spend in the gym; how many tens of more extras could have been employed; how much slightly more realistic the giant CGI scorpions might have appeared; how they could have maybe got Liam Neeson to do a brief cameo to slam his fist on something. Wouldn't that have been pretty mediocre?
Imagine no longer! That Sliders parallel universe is now:
Man, these soundtrack guys know exactly what me and my friends listen to when we backyard wrestle.

I'm definitely going to hire that scorpion to be the drummer in my band.
4. John - November 11, 2009 1:24 PM
The claymation effects in the original were better.
5. glace neuf - November 11, 2009 1:24 PM
WTF is that?
6. sharkey - November 11, 2009 1:39 PM
Yea this is going to be an epic movie
7. Oldskool - November 11, 2009 2:15 PM
None of this looks remotely similar to the original...i Medusa wasn't hinted at, I'd think they just stole the title and put it on a revamped Hercules or Xena episode.

Dear Sam Worthington: I know you are trying to expand your career and all, but do you think you could avoid doing so at the expense of every movie I've enjoyed in my youth?

Why does the monk from Romeo and Juliet with Guns speak like he's a plumber from Jersey? Is this a reimagining where the people in old Greek times had awesome accents? This movie is so hahd!
10. stevo2314 - November 11, 2009 3:08 PM
the used? really? REALLY?
i GUESS it works....
11. Brayden Jamez - November 11, 2009 3:20 PM
WOW! In Clash of the Titans, Titans will Clash? I had no idea! My mind has been blown.
12. Jake Ryan - November 11, 2009 3:23 PM
Is that music from the original movie? It sounds like something you'd hear on the radio in 1981.
13. TetraShiva - November 11, 2009 4:31 PM
It looks like someone took 300 & Troy, mashed them together, then just slapped the title Clash of the Titans on it. I'd rather have the original.
14. Judy - November 11, 2009 4:58 PM
"Titans Will Clash" is the best tag line that they could come up with for "Clash of the Titans." That is astoundingly lazy. Someone didn't want to put his Thinking Cap on.
15. Kevin - November 11, 2009 5:26 PM
Medusawas more then hinted at she was in the trailer.
16. Nate - November 11, 2009 5:46 PM
Was that a fucking Klingon ???
17. Dave - November 11, 2009 7:59 PM
Looks like it could suck. I wonder when they are going to use real metal for these movies instead of the fucking Used.
18. Shellie - November 11, 2009 9:31 PM
This music is the band The Used. love them
19. duketrik - November 11, 2009 10:15 PM
"Titans WILL CLASH!"
...oh god, I'm still laughing
20. duketrik - November 11, 2009 10:16 PM
"Titans WILL CLASH!"
...oh god, I'm still laughing
21. edboy - November 11, 2009 11:09 PM
that klingon looking dude i think is the new version of Calibos from the orig...
22. jaja - November 11, 2009 11:16 PM
"Titans WILL CLASH!"
...oh god, I'm still laughing"
Quoted for truth
Where was the Kraken?
23. markonius maximus - November 12, 2009 12:09 AM
Looks like this one's gonna ROCK! - And NO not "The Used" Maybe some....
Matando Weros.... which translates to..... Killing White People... Love that Band
Haters... shut the fuck up and make something better. Then you can talk shit.
Everything is a re-make these days. It's annoying. We get it. If it's not that it's a goddamn comic book or video game movie. WE GET IT.
NOTHING IMPRESSES YOU FAGGOTS!
WE FUCKING GET IT!
You hide behind your computer screens to act tough. We get that too.
Go ahead and talk shit now faggots.
Those of you that appreciate this teaser/movie you are excluded from being fags... Not that there's anything wrong with that.
24. first haha - November 12, 2009 12:52 AM
OMG MY YOUTH! shut up. Your old movie stiull exists just as it did back then. This movie won't change that. Be thankful that more and more new movies are being made all the time an TY to enjoy them before you dismiss them. It's a really crappy character flaw and makes you look insecure. about. something.
25. first haha - November 12, 2009 12:53 AM
sorry, I meant TRY to enjoy them. Typing in the dark sucks.
26. jayx - November 12, 2009 2:08 AM
WOW that LOOKS SO GOOD!!!
I am Totally waiting for this, IT looks MORE EPIC than Stupid "AVATAR"
27. Scor - November 12, 2009 6:16 AM
Looks nice, will watch it just for the giant scorpion!
28. Ian - November 12, 2009 7:19 AM
Okay. This movie looks ridiculous. The good kind of ridiculous. And it's a movie with giant scorpions and an armor-clad Liam Neeson. I seriously doubt that they were going for the Oscar on this one. So who cares if it doesn't stack up to the original? I personally haven't seen, but I'm sure it's good in it's own right. So why don't you self-righteous movie buffs take the stick out of your ass and go enjoy yourselves?
29. Dude - November 12, 2009 10:31 AM
I'm thinking this might be cool. But I love me some Harryhausen;)
30. mlaps - November 12, 2009 10:36 AM
How does Sam Worthington keep getting work?
31. AnKh - November 12, 2009 10:52 AM
YEAR !!!!
calibos is a klingon lol
32. spleenal - November 12, 2009 12:31 PM
then titans will fall in "fall of the titans"
then titans will rise in "rise of the titans"
then attack in "attack of the titans"
humm not so sure about that last one.
33. jack - November 12, 2009 12:50 PM
Where was the awesome robot owl?
34. Catalyste - November 12, 2009 6:00 PM
@ 8
I agree!
I'll just ignore all this "wide eyed" heroic pageantry that's been played up like a Gold Calf and just reminisce about the Clash of the Titans from 1981.
35. TIIF (The Internet Is Funny) - November 12, 2009 6:29 PM
Too early to tell, if it'll bomb. Remember, trailers are usually better then movies.
To
#4 John: Yeah! *high five* Claymation rocks! In a stop motion kinda awesomeness that is greatly missed these days.
#13 Tetrashiva: Me too. Oh wait, I do. And its awesome. Want to come over?
#24 first haha: What? You think this will actually top the magic of whistling robotic owls, claymation monsters, and - wow, I'm not making much of a case. Well, at least there's that 2% of good remakes. Like Ocean's Eleven. In which I will never watch the original.
#27 Scor: And the Rock! Scorpion King! That's who I was looking for. Am I right? Am I right? Yeaaah...not really, but this remake seems like such a mash up, that I thought maybe, just maybe he was there.
#26 jayx: What? You - you don't like Avatar? I was going to do this cross over movie. Called Clash of the Avatar, where he fights the scorpion king in a giant bucket. And there was going to be explosions! Car chases! And ninjas - gotta have ninjas!
#32 spleenal: Those all sound good, but one thing I noticed is the scorpions in the trailer seemed musically inclined. Their tale swipes, went well with the tune. So I'm thinking, the next movie will be a sort of spin off. Clash of the Titans, the musical! The scorpions will play most of the beats! What do you think? Broadway material, or what? You'll have to write it though, I hate musicals.
# 33 jack: My sentiments exactly. Sure, they had Medusa. That hottie. I'd ask her out, but I'm petrified she might turn me down. *sigh* Medusa...
#3 Hal: I want their album. Those scorpions play pretty well.
36. robweeve - November 12, 2009 7:25 PM
this movie is cock!
37. jarebear - November 12, 2009 9:10 PM
@ Dave, /Yeah, but I guess it fits the trailer. :/
38. Rob (TS) - November 13, 2009 10:53 AM
Overall it worked well as a teaser, but man...the copy "TITANS WILL CLASH" actually got through? Wow...
39. davy - November 13, 2009 5:20 PM
I'm tired of hyper-kenetic special effects taking the place of things like plot, theme, character, and dialogue. So my thoughts about this remake can best be expressed by the first two lines in this trailer:
"One day somebody's gonna have to make a stand. One day, somebody's got to say, "Enough!"
40. liamneesonsneckchops - November 13, 2009 9:07 PM
there better be neck chops or im asking for my 10 dollars back in the movie theater. yes with neck chops if i dont get it back.
41. CaptainMorgan - November 14, 2009 1:32 PM
@40 you mean like Captain Kirk neck chops when he's trying to take down green lizard dudes and save the blue girl at the same time rescuing enough dilithium crystals to transport the whales back to Vulcan? TJ Hooker rocks the TekWar!
On a serious note, the original was awesome. This looks like a good update. Been looking forward to it ever since they announced it!
BTW all the haters are gay and would rather watch Twilight or the Notebook.
42. russ - November 15, 2009 3:36 AM
This will be interesting. It looks a hell of alot better than that sh!tty movie troy.
43. Susu - November 16, 2009 4:06 AM
Just so you know: This movie was shot mostly in the island of TENERIFE, Canary Islands, Spain. The desert, moon-like landscape is located at the base of Mount Teide, Spain´s tallest peak. Due to its high alttitude, some of the world´s best athletes (such as Lance Armstrong), go there for training.
44. Frank - November 17, 2009 2:24 AM
@41: I hate the Notebook, I hate Twilight, I hate this trailer, and I hate you.
No sense of style, originality, or tension. It's one long videogame cut scene with a lot of yelling. At least in 300 we could laugh at how absurdly overblown and homoerotic it was, and pick out some striking imagery along the way. This just looks wearying and dull.
45. Duane - November 17, 2009 10:27 AM
to idiots who mention claymation and no medusa in the original this is not a remake of jason and the argonauts you stupid morons! clash of the titans was a 1981 movie with freaking medusa
46. dparks - November 19, 2009 11:59 AM
What this motherfvcker needs is a giant robot who can run around with giant metal balls peeing oil on the bad guys; that or a hawt smoking chick who turns out to be made of gajillions of nanobots. Oh yeah I'd still do her; and you would too, LIAR!!
47. In the stead - November 24, 2009 10:52 AM
scorpion air drums @ 0:42
48. dr. dann - February 5, 2010 2:11 AM
