why does he have the same face in two different posters? Is this some sort of fake poster joke shit?
Anasui Kishibe said:
Because it's a facial expression geared for action-piece promotional posters and not for academy award nomination.
Photographers/designers usually pick one or two photos which will match the mood of the promotional campaign and just discard the rest if they don't fit the mood.

that's weird. I mean, they coulda used a slightly different expression/angle to get to the point, not the same face shopped in a different context. It kinda strikes me as cheap job

HOLY SHIT! 
Anasui Kishibe said:
It's not 'shopped'. More like the photographer/designer was aiming for a specific shot or expression (ie. anger/triumph). Moreover, those posters you see are most likely experimental posters and not all will make it to theaters. They're still playing around with the typography and the words they want to include/exclude. That's why there are some posters that look similar except in different poses/angle. Usually, only one of the two similar posters will be used in the final version. So most likely only one of the Pegasus and one of the Kraken will be used.

Ok, I wasn't horribly excited to see this movie, but seeing the posters and the photo of Liam Neeson in bad-ass gear, I've changed from indifferent to frickin' anxious! Now I can't *wait* to see this film.
Good job, GAF, for convincing me!

Actually, it's funny, because showing the GOW3 demo to my girlfriend opened up a long conversation about Clash of the Titans a few nights ago. We ended up renting the movie off PSN.
Personally, after seeing the original so recently, I'm not as interested in a remake of Clash as much as I am seeing what they are going to do for a God of War movie.
The original Clash is just fine, cheese and all. I don't need an "edgier" retelling, CG, and all that other modern shit. Watching Clash the other night brought me right back to where I was sitting in a theater when I was a kid.

I'm sorry but what is this story even about? I love epic movies like this, but I've never heard of this one before.

Very interesting. Did Kratos fight Perseus in God of War? I seem to remember that name from some where.

Can't believe the hate for the owl. Seriously how can you hate it and how can it not be in this?
Maybe they are hiding it since they know everyone wants it!!

I don't know what's more aggravating to me, the fact that some people don't know about the original Clash of the Titans, or that their frame of reference for Greek mythology starts at God of War. :\

Those posters look great...although I hadn't realized until now that Leterrier is directing this. I thought Hulk "2" was an immense piece of crap. :/ Hopefully he somehow got better since then.
Here's a protip: if you're spoiled by that I recommend you get a fucking education.

LOL this reminds me of the time I saw Romeo + Juliet and all the teen girls in the front row who came to see DiCaprio started freaking out at the end when he took the poison and died. That's not how a Hollywood love story is supposed to end! Pro tip girls, that particular spoiler alert has been in the public domain for 500 years!jett said:Those posters look great...although I hadn't realized until now that Leterrier is directing this.

You know, this movie looks like something i've never seen before, it's something maybe i would expect a comic book or a videogame or a cartoon try to do visually but ever thought someone would have the balls to make a movie in this fashion.
It's cool as hell.
Not even in the same ballpark as far as public awareness goes between this and Romeo. Come on, i know the stuff i learned in school, and the stuff i saw in fiction, but i for one don't know the story of Clash of the Titans.
Acting like that is synonymous of a lack of education is laughable, since the fuck when do we have to know every particular story in greek mythology? Give me a break.

I'm sure there'll be a tonne of CG, but it's always good seeing actors act on sets and locations instead of standing in front of fucking green screens.
