Come on, admit it. You see Harry Hamlin wearing a loincloth.
This is a remake alert: the 1980s classic “Clash of the Titans,” that combined state-of-the-art (outside of Lucasfilms, anyway) animation with world-class casting is being remade.
And the trailer looks pretty good.
Trailers can be misleading, of course. Ask anybody who plunked down the eight bucks to see “The Great Outdoors.” There’s no improving on this:

Ah…Trog…um…my first thought of any movie has never, ever involved any guy in a loincloth. I’m beginning to wonder about the Trogfather–maybe you’re a little too suave, if you know what I mean.
Dude, You did not just slam “The Great Outdoors.” I’m gonna’ pretend I didn’t just read that. Man, you make yourself awfully hard to like sometimes.
Any man that disses John Candy is a man I have a problem with. Let’s just pretend this ugliness never happened.
Does the moment where a bear pounces all over Candy not cause you to smile at all, you cold heartless she-man?
Does the moment when Candy suffers through eating the fat of a steak not cause overwhelming frivolity and giddiness in your empty soul?
I pity the fool who doesn’t laugh at any John Candy movie (excluding Wagons East, of course). I pity the fool.
I would argue that the Clash of the Titans would’ve been much improved with a few cameo Candy scenes as long as he wasn’t required to wear a loincloth. In fact, any movie would’ve been improved with John Candy.
