'Clash of the Titans 2' Begins Filming, Plot Details Released
In a press release from Warner Bros. Pictures, it was announced today that the sequel to last years 'Clash of the Titans' has begun principal photography. Directed by Jonathan Liebsman ('Battle: Los Angeles'), and featuring Sam Worthington reprising his role as Perseus, the film is currently being shot in studios outside of London. Now, before the anguished fanboy cry of "WHHHHYYYY GOD WHHYYYYY???", let's just remember that the first film made nearly $500 million worldwide from a budget of only $125 million... and it did it with what was quite possibly the world's worst post-conversion 3D.
Originally titled "Wrath of the Titans" (presumably changed to cash in on the original's success), the sequel picks up a decade after the original, with Perseus - the demigod son of Zeus (played by Liam Neeson) - living the quiet life of a fisherman alongside his 10-year old son, Helios. However, the peace doesn't last very long (when does it ever?) and with mankind's faith in the gods wavering, the gods are slowly losing their power and control over the imprisoned Titans and their leader, Kronos - father to Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. When Hades (Ralph Fiennes) and the god of war Ares (Edgar Ramírez) make an unholy alliance with Kronos, all hell is released on Earth and Zeus is captured. Perseus joins forces with the fierce warrior Queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon's demigod son, Argenor (Toby Kebbell), and fallen god Hephaestus (Bill Nighy) to venture into the underworld, rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans, and save mankind.
The film is slated for a March 2012 release in both 2D and 3D, although there is still no word yet on whether or not it will be filmed in 3D from the start, or whether they will try to once again to convert the footage in post-production.

I don't know how it's possible for someone to actually like that trainwreck, let alone someone who is a fan of the actual mythology. I honestly would rather watch fucking Percy Jackson than to sit through that trash again. Hope this sequel falls on its face.

Cthulu, Seeker: Ouranos was castrated by Kronos, who was in turn defeated by Zeus and locked in Tartarus. Aphrodite has 2 conflicting origins: either born of Zeus + Dione or born of the foam from the severed genitals of Ouranos.

And yeah, I basically have the accept the butchering of the gods' roles - Judeo-Christian Good vs Evil fixation makes Hades the devil-villain, although throwing Ares into the mix is cool. Hephaestus being played by Bill Nighy is good too.

I'm a huge Greek mythology fan and really dug the first one, but thankfully they have new people working on the costumes and makeup, which was schizo in the first one - Perseus and co looked good, Djinn was badass, but the gods were like psychadelic shiny with crazy hobo beards. Poseidon should be more Poseidony, more ocean-like as well. Plus, they can completely change the attires of the gods because they're gods and take whatever form they want, lol!

The movie was pretty good, but it wasn't a great movie. Hopefully this sequel will be a lot better.
