Bad idea.

Unless they follow the actual Perseus myth more closely.

Very good idea.

Modern effects and a slightly better story would be a lot of fun.

One of my favorite movies as a kid.

How can you beat Ray Harryhausen's effects?!? :)

I would probably check it out though.

The HarryHausen/HarryHamlin magic will be hard to top.

Harryhausen supports remaking Titans. He's also working with people writing comic book sequels of his films, colorizing the old black and white ones, and generally is just a forward looking guy. He doesn't like CGI though, so if they were to remake this with his blessing, it wouldn't be CGI I don't think.

As much as I like the original, I agree. More movies about Greek myth please!

They remake is being made... with The Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier.

I was kinda hoping Peter Jackson would do the remake, but this is good so far.

Ew...not opposed to a remake, but I'd hire Gore Verbinski. Anybody that can pull off Davy Jones could do Medusa.

I thought that they were remaking the movie 2010 with Harry Hamlin as Dr. Floyd and the mechanical owl as Hal.

I'd welcome a remake of this - I love that old movie, and have fond memories of it. With CGI, this would look great and could be lots of fun.

First trailer is out. I loved the original as a kid, so I'll definitely see this.

Also, I would like a cookie for searching for this thread rather than starting my own. :)

I will be there with bells on. Loved the movie as a kid, and even read the movie novelization (which was my habit with movies I loved).

Did they at least figure out this time around that the Kraken wasn't part of Greek mythology?

Neither was a gold robot owl, but I'll take the Kraken over Bubo.
