If the main purpose of a movie poster is to generate excitement about an upcoming feature than I gotta say, the posters for the upcoming remake of 'Clash of the Titans' has me lining up already. How fantastic are these? Bad ass Perseus riding his even badder assed horsey Pegasus into the maw against the stinkin' tentacled Kraken with the head of Medusa in his hands all in the hope of saving the beautiful Andromeda. Phew! That is just wicked cool in all kinds of ways. The quality of these posters is not great but its what was released today. I will replace when we get better examples but for now - drool away.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

As I said before, show me CGI Medusa before I say anything.
Except this: Isn't the beheaded Medusa teaser poster kind of a spoiler for those who don't know the mythology or haven't seen the original film?
From someone raised on these myths I can't imagine anyone not knowing the fate of Medussa. But I see you point.
