== The 1981 original ==
* [[All-Star Cast]]: Zigzagged. The Olympian Gods were all portrayed by actors who were, at the time, A-list in Britain, the most well known being [[Laurence Olivier]]. Almost everyone else in the film was an unknown.
* [[Fridge Logic]]: See [[Clash of the Titans/Headscratchers|here]].
* [[Ham and Cheese]]: Burgess Meredith as Ammon. [http://www.reelviews.net/php_review_template.php?identifier=1497 A reviewer] even said he acts as if he's in a [[Mel Brooks]] movie.
Line 31 ⟶ 32:
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]: The (Arabian) djinn distracts Medusa by blowing himself up.
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot]]: There were times when it felt it they were setting up to deliver the message "just because they're your children/you created them doesn't justify abusing them," but it never happened.
* [[Tough Act to Follow]]: Naturally, a big reason this film didn't do well is because everyone compared it to the 1981 version.
* [[What an Idiot!]]: And to think...if Hades hadn't gone out of his way to be a dick by {{spoiler|killing Perseus's family}}, he would have been able to pull of his plan to seize power without a hitch.
** If the Harpy that stole the bag with Medusa's head in it had say, dropped it in the sea, or fed it to the Kraken, Hades would have won straight off.
