My favorite childhood movie is being remade, and as of right now will be released March 26, 2010. Clash of the Titans came out in 1981 and featured the groundbreaking talents of special effects pioneer, Ray Harryhausen. The CG effects that are now being used are nowhere near as frightening or tangible as Harryhausen's stop-motion monsters. I'm a big fan of his and enjoy the Sinbad films, the fringe obscurities, and of course the seminal Jason and the Argonauts.
I can't wait to see how this remake will come out. I'm not holding my breath for anything too spectacular, but I think it will be a nice kind of tribute to this wonderful film.
