Poseidon, the real golden-shower god
You may have heard about the fundamentalists decrying the recent blockbuster film Avatar, now you will have to steel yourself for more of the same with the upcoming release of the remake of Clash of the Titans. At least according to Jeremy Martin over at the San Antonio Current. Martin has an insightful (and hilarious) preview of the religious heresies you can expect to see. Let him explain it:
Don’t be fooled by the movie’s spectacle, fellow believers. Just like the original Clash of the Titans, this movie’s true purpose is to poison the minds of children and other mental feebs with false religion. Below is a believer’s guide to this aberration with the counterpoints to its nonsense helpfully boldfaced and in all caps, so you know they’re right. Scream them at theater-going families this weekend, and let them know the true meaning of Greek Orthodoxy.
You can read the rest of A shower of gold: Release the Kraken on Clash of the Titans’ heresy as Martin hits topics like “Zeus is not a Perv”, “The Riddle of Calibos was Stupid” and “Perseus didn’t Kill Medusa”.
Whether you believe that Harryhausen’s 1981 original is sacrosanct and should have never been remade or you just can’t wait for the CG versions of Medusa and the Kraken in 3D, take a minute to see how the latest incarnation of the Perseus legend will “poison the minds of our children and other mental feebs“.
Afterward, make your reservations for the Worlds Collide meetup for the film: Clash of the Titans 3D at Regal Northwoods. The group is converging on Saturday, April 3rd at 2:00 PM.
