Moar Greek mythology gone wild!

#Monsterdon

Get ready for Ray Harryhausen at his best!

#Monsterdon

Good intro music.

#Monsterdon

Must be cold in those Greek paintings.

#Monsterdon

Is there a kraken? Oh, let there be a kraken!

#Monsterdon

I want some of what this ash man is on.

#Monsterdon

Why do they cover their stone buildings in kindling?

#Monsterdon

OMG! It looks like the statue of Athena at the Parthenon in Nashville!

#Monsterdon

Beware the man who has one shoe! His name…is Brian!

#Monsterdon

Russell Crowe went back in time to play Zeus in this movie.

#Monsterdon

FUCK! He has only one sandal!

#Monsterdon

The ash man reminds me of Michael Palin dressed as the “it man” from Monty Python’s Flying Circus.

#Monsterdon

This movie is too religious. Always the gods this, and the gods that.

#Monsterdon

“Zeus, why does your transporter beam make everything 25x bigger?”

#Monsterdon

“The gods are best served by those who want their help least.”

I love this line. It’s like Zeus is saying, “We want to do the least, so we’ll choose the mortal who wants our help the least.”

#Monsterdon

This was Hercules before his lifting days.

#Monsterdon

Hercules’s requirements for a woman: “a firm leg, a full bosom, and a warm heart.”

#Monsterdon

I liked Lou Ferrigno’s Hercules better. This Hercules is a bumbling idiot.

#Monsterdon

I mean, Ferrigno’s Hercules was no less an idiot, but he wasn’t bumbling.

#Monsterdon

Jason’s like, “Shit, Hercules! What’d you do this time?”

#Monsterdon

I thought Jason was going to climb up into him and find the control room. I didn’t think he's be filled with scalding water and red lights.

#Monsterdon

I think Terry Gilliam sampled some of this soundtrack for The Crimson Permanent Assurance.

#Monsterdon

Bro, you really think Hercules is the best one among you?

#Monsterdon

“I don’t sin every day” is perhaps the greatest defense I’ve ever heard.

#Monsterdon

Like, dudes, the harpies are just doing their harpy things. Don’t mess with them, and they won’t mess with you.

#Monsterdon

The next scene is a ton of fruit they are laying out on the table. Did the harpies provide all that?

#Monsterdon

I hope those harpies get free and come after them.

#Monsterdon

“There’s not much water here…even though it’s the ocean.”

#Monsterdon

I love this old dude who’s basically always in his tighty whiteys on the ship.

#Monsterdon

Is this like a sarlac pit in the middle of the sea?

#Monsterdon

“There’s no turning back on this voyage, though I’ve forgotten why we’re doing this, by now. Just like the audience has forgotten.”

#Monsterdon

Wow. Jason has gone from kind of devout, yet with little need for the gods, which is why Zeus liked him, to completely against the gods and ready for all humans to do without them.

#Monsterdon

When Poseidon shows up and holds back the rock walls, and you get a really good whiff of his armpit as you sail under him, you know you’ve got the good gods on your side.

#Monsterdon

The gods are angry with Nashville tonight. (We’re under a tornado watch.)

#Monsterdon

“Euphemus, we will miss you so much, even though we knew your name for only this 60 seconds of film time.”

#Monsterdon

Is the statue dancing back-and-forth, or is that the shrooms?

#Monsterdon

Oh, so they’re there to steal it and cause a genocide? Well, down with them. Jason and the Argonauts are the baddies.

#Monsterdon

Someone else mentioned how we’re seeing such glorious dad bod, and wow! We really are. I only wish my dad bod was as magnificent.

#Monsterdon

“See, Jason. If you take the fleece, all my people will die. So…I love you.”

#Monsterdon

Why is a hydra guarding the golden fleece anyway?

#Monsterdon

That’s the way to kill a hydra. Don’t bother with its heads. Go straight for its heart.

#Monsterdon

Why does old man tighty whitey have a tunic on?

#Monsterdon

What? They couldn’t get the hydra’s teeth without that massive fireworks show?

#Monsterdon

Jason, you've fought enough battles to know you shouldn’t willy nilly yank out an arrow like that.

#Monsterdon

Did they just use up all the power of the fleece? It’s no longer shiny.

#Monsterdon

@ramsey They figured the audience had enough eye candy.
