and keep the beaches shipwreck free
The Clash of the Titans remake came to our little second-run theater and though I was very excited to see this new version, I walked away a little disappointed. The special effects were impressive and the monsters scarier but the Ray Harryshausen style of the original Medusa and Kraken were endearing, and so was Bubo--and rather than paying homage to the little clockwork owl from Hephaestus' forge and was like R2D2, they made fun of him, ever so briefly. The acting in the original was much better, and Laurence Olivier is more believeable as Zeus.
