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:

Nov 4 2009 'Clash of the Titans' Involves So Much Yelling

Even the disembodied heads and winged horses scream in this thing. The script must be all vowels and exclamation points.

More low-res Clash of the Titans posters here (thanks, Keno).

Oct 5 2009 Liam Neeson Equips Zeus Armor; +5 Defense

The first photos of Liam Neeson as Zeus in Clash of the Titans have shown up in Entertainment Weekly. I was a bit skeptical of the amount of t-shirt I was seeing in other costumes, but in this shot, I have to say, I'm pretty impressed by the degree of authenticity here. That's an authentic Asian fan being waved by an actual Asian woman subservient to Liam Neeson! THAT'S authenticity! Even Schindler's List just used a box fan between takes.

Popular in Ancient Greece, still popular today: T-shirts. Give them a shot.

Ostensibly from the newest issue of Empire, the first production photo from Clash of the Titans has shown up on /Film. The image depicts a scowling Sam Worthington portraying Perseus, or, as I like to call him, "What I imagined my character in the 1996 PC game Diablo looked like in real life."

Hopefully new shots will soon emerge that reveal why Worthington is so pissed at this hand.

Apr 9 2009 Fiennes and Neeson are Some Clashing Titans

Something seems to be keeping Schindler's List 2 from ever getting off the ground, but no fears, everyone, we're still going to get to see the acting forces of Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson merged once more. The two are set to play Hades and Zeus, respectively, in Louis Letterier's Clash of the Titans:

LONDON -- Ralph Fiennes is in advanced negotiations to star as Hades, the lord of the underworld, in helmer Louis Leterrier's "Clash of the Titans" for Warner Bros.

Liam Neeson is set to co-star as Zeus in the reimagining of the Greek myth of Perseus.

Fiennes would join a cast that already includes, in addition to Neeson, Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen, Alexa Davalos and Sam Worthington in the reimagining of the Greek myth of Perseus.

I really hope there's a scene where Neeson and Fienes stand side by side and explain who they are, because otherwise my mom is definitely going to assume they're the same character. She'll call I'll have to spend a minimum of ten minutes explaining why "the handsome man from that Christmas love story" kept changing beards.
