Writes Mike Fleming at Deadline, "Warner Bros closed a deal late last night for Battle: Los Angeles director Jonathan Liebesman to direct Clash of the Titans 2. I'd written yesterday about the ongoing talks that were stuck on money. Later in the day, they found a common ground. The sequel is a natural considering that the protagonists played by Sam Worthington and Gemma Arterton survived, and the original grossed nearly $500 million worldwide. But Clash benefited by being one of the first major live action films to get a 3D retrofit. I don't think I've ever heard anybody say they actually liked the movie, and there were many complaints that the hasty 3D conversion was less a quality breakthrough than a gimmick reminiscent of that short-lived trend of 'colorizing' B&W films. Warner Bros and Legendary will try to do better on the sequel, including shooting in 3D. That alone should make the mythical creatures more fun than, say, the cheesy-looking piranha currently swimming across movie screens."
What are your thoughts on Clash of the Titans and how do you think they could improve things in the sequel?
