Clash Of The Titans trailer scores -300

Embrace your shallowness, Matt. Nurture it. Woo it. Love it. Soon, yes very soon, you too will join me on the Dark Side...

"Titans....(WHOOSH)....WILL...(WHOOSH)...CLASH"

*facepalms*
I'm picturing Apollo & Xerxes standing next to each other at the Titans Summer Ball and eyeing each other up slyly thinking "Ohmygods...I shouldn't have worn this toga"

Titans will clash.
*Slowclapping*

I had absolutely no interest in this film at all but, after seeing this trailer, I think all the blockbuster CGI has won me over. Don't get me wrong, it looks ridiculous, particularly Liam Neeson ("I am Zeus and I'm PISSED OFF!") and I think Sam Worthington stole his "jump and stab" attack from Troy's Brad Pitt, but I think it could still be fun to watch just for the effects.

Does it look like a 300 knockoff? Sure. But do I still want to see it? HELL YEAH! I am a total pushover for thrash metal and large, oily men in manskirts kicking some scorpion ass.

I've just watched trailers for both Clash and Kick-Ass (I skipped that trailer of Date Night, thanks to Ali) and must say that, regardless the content which we may find interesting or not, they luckily avoid being summary-like (perhaps Titans fits it a bit), which can be fucking annoying. For example: today I've seen '2012' (yes, I know, shoot me), and they provided me with 'Wolfman' trailer depicting the whole plot. Thanks guys, didn't plan to watch Benicio as wolf but now I know what happens all the way, anyways.

When trailers went this path? Hopefully, not all of them. Still, I hate closing eyes in cinema.

I like it - always a sucker for these types of thing, even the cheapo ones on Hallmark channel with Jeremy London.
