Clash Of The Titans Harry Hamlin Views
It’s been close to 30 years since Harry Hamlin donned the heroic toga of Perseus in the landmark adventure film “Clash of the Titans.” With a big-budget remake set to crash into theaters on April 2, the original has just made its debut as a Blu-ray. Hamlin (also known for his role on “L.A. Law” and a stint on “Dancing with the Stars”) took the time to chat with Hero Complex contributor Gerrick D. Kennedy about his old sandal days, the remake, reality television and that “Avatar” movie everyone keeps talking about.
ItR's funny that this new /"Clash of the Titans/" is referred to as a big-budget remake, since the original COTT was a touted as Ray Harryhausenf's first big-budget major film. While Titans isnt't my favorite Harryhausen movie, at least it stood on its own as far as special effects are concerned. With the plethora of CG shops, there really isna't much difference between the look of any of these effects films today. They all use basically the same software to create the images and lighting. It all looks the same. Even i"Avatara" had backgrounds that didne't look much different than you could get out of Bryce on a Mac.
