New Clash of the Titans Trailer 2010

Did you hear about the Clash of the Titans remake in 2010? Oh, you didn’t know? Well, the Clash of the Titans CGI looks fantastic, and I see a few familiar actors in there. Just based on the trailer, the Clash of the Titans remake looks pretty cool. So why can you detect my underwhelming excitement?

Could it be…that there was no reason to have a Clash of the Titans remake? Yeah, that could be it. Here’s another one: is the plot going to be the same? It looks so based on the trailer. So all we will have is enhanced graphics, better music, and maybe some sex.

Am I being jaded? How long before Clash of the Titans 2010 will be streaming in the Netflix Instant Browse section?

Remake, remake, remake. Because you demanded it. You demanded a King Kong vs Godzilla remake, so you’re going to get it.

What, a new generation must experience Clash of the Titans in full CGI HD? They can’t enjoy the 1981 version? Or is that a myth: perhaps children and young adults actually watch and enjoy movies and TV shows pre-1998?

By the way, what’s the difference between watching the 1981 Clash of the Titans on DVD or TBS vs. going to the movie theater in 2010? Why must be spend $10 per person to experience the same story, but with “updates”? It’s the whole Madden 2010 syndrome. Newer = better in our world.

Why are we as a society so attracted to the new, shiny, gold jewelery that someone is dangling in front of us like a pendulum? Why do we drool and say “that’s awesome” when we see CGI. Twenty years from now this “cutting edge CGI” will look like those Styrofoam rocks in Star Trek: The Original Series. Okay, so I’m exaggerating, but I’m just sayin’. WHY ™?

Okay, it’s cool. But was it necessary to create a Clash of the Titans remake? If you ever watched the original (which I suggest you do if you haven’t) did you ever say, “Man, I wish they could remake that movie.” Can we get Chris Rock to play Calibos?

Titans. Will. Clash. Wow…sounds like a WCW pro wrestling pay-per-view from 1990: Sting vs Ric Flair, this time in a CAGE.

Hollywood marketing and ideas board room meeting (various voices):


“Any new ideas?”

“Well, I was with my girlfriend last night, going through the channels, and I saw this old movie- Clash of the Titans. I don’t know it must have been made in the 1960′s or something. But it was pretty cool. I was thinking- with the success of 300 and Beowulf, we should do a Clash of the Titans remake.”

“Sounds great!”

“Yes, let’s get May and Manfredi on the phone and see if they can come up with a screenplay!”

“Liam Neeson would be a great Burgess Meredith!”

“Who?”

“Nah, cast Neeson as Zeus.”

“Sam Worthington should be the lead.”

“Perseus?”

“Who?”

“Perseus- the hero!”

“Get Worthington’s agent on the phone.”

“Worthington was excellent in Terminator Salvation.”

“I heard he’s doing the voice in Avatar.”

“Sign him up!”
