I used to love Greek Mythology, still do actually.

So yesterday while snowed in at home, I sat down and watched one of my all-time favorite movies: 1981’s Clash of the Titans. The flick, full of old school heavy hitters like Burgess Meredith, Dame Maggie Smith, and Laurence Olivier tells the tale of the Greek hero Perseus and his many conquests. Its all there: Zeus, Mt. Olympus, Medusa, Pegasus – heaven for a greek geek like me.

But I digress.

Whenever I’m watching a movie on my computer, I’m bound to wikipedia something about it to learn more. Whether looking up the inspirations behind the movie, fact finding, or reading the plot outline to clear up any questions I might have, I always wiki something! So of course, I looked up “Clash of the Titans,” and what do you know, there’s a remake coming out next year in March!

And then I saw… there’s tons of sequels and adaptations coming out next year, so I thought I’d post a few.

“Clash of the Titans” – Releasing March 26, 2010

“Robin Hood” – Releasing  May 14, 2010

Ridley Scott [the producer of Gladiator] teams up with Russel Crowe again [with Hollywood gold Cate Blanchett] for the remake.
