Clash of the Titans
kian won e movie tix in a contest, so we got to watch the preview on wed @ lido. overrall it's worth a watch, thou kian feels dat everything is very predictable, storyline is jus like the adult version of percy jackson & e lighting thief.
prior to watching these 2 movies, i've zero knowledge of the greek mythology, but i got so interested dat i went to do a little research. the titans, as i learnt from wikipedia, were a race of powerful deities that ruled durin the legendary golden ago. amount e principal greek gods are e 12 olympians, wif Zeus as their leader, and e more famous ones which we saw in e movies are Hades (god of the underworld), Athena (godddess of wisdom & courage), Ares (god of war), Aphrodite (goddess of love & beauty), Poseidon (god of sea). at first i tot the 12 olympians are all of the same generation but i realised Aphrodite, Ares and Athena are actually e children of Zeus, so it's formed by a mixture of generations! Perseus is of course as wat's depicted in e movie, the son of Zeus, e hero who killed Medusa and saved Andromeda from e sea monster. but in e greek mythology, he'll eventually marry Andromeda, which is diff from e movie.
when i try to figure out e whole family tree, it's so huge dat u can read on and on, so i decided dat jus e basic knowledge will suffice! ha!
