Mythic Mayhem!
— It’s not easy being a demigod; everyone expects great things out of you! Pity poor Perseus; as if whipping the Kraken wasn’t enough in 2010’s Clash of the Titans, now he has to beat a whole host of other assorted monsters in Wrath of the Titans. There will be a slew of them to boot in this special effects extravaganza, everything from a thirty-foot high Cyclops to a Minotaur to my personal fave, a Chimera…I just like things with multiple heads and incongruous parts that spew fire, that’s the way I roll! Mighty Kronos himself enters the fray, just dripping with lava…what more could a boy want? Yes, I know, robots, zombies, mummies, aliens, and werewolves are extremely cool too, but you can’t have them all in the same movie and preserve artistic integrity.- -Besides, I’d die of too much happiness!
While most of the beasties are computer generated, the Minotaur is played by an actor in a latex suit who underwent four hours of makeup for each day on the set! You’ll also see Perseus’ noble winged steed Pegasus, and the demonic Makhai, who attack like whirling dervishes.
This isn’t Shakespeare, but it’s good guy fun…and what’s wrong with that? Wrath of the Titans opens March 30th…and it’s a cornucopia of creatures!!!– -Woo-hoo!

It’s going to cause some people to remark: “Awwwwww! They’re just ripping off IMMORTALS!”
Yet, if memory serves that was a 3D mega-flop at the box office. W.O.T.T. will probably do better, by comparison.

Now will the next “Titans” sequel be called, “Revenge of the Titans,” or “Titans Gone Wild?” By the way, the team making this movie is supposedly going to make a movie version of, “The Flash!”

If that’s the case, then the next sequel should have Perseus meeting up with Dick Grayson, and be entitled: “Birth of the Teen Titans.”
