The distributor said the Warner Bros./Legendary sequel, Wrath of the Titans, will bow March 30, 2012, a week later than its original March 23 date. Had it stayed put, it would have gone up against Lionsgate’s The Hunger Games, the adaptation of a best-selling novel trilogy that is picking up buzz and eyeing Jennifer Lawrence for the lead.

Isn’t the Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogen comedy road trip film, “My Mother’s Curse” also slated for March 30th 2012
Sounds like they are already having trouble. Can this be a bigger piece of garbage than the first one? Is that possible? I know it made a ton of money but really, do we need a sequel? The answer is no but gotta make that money. Ugh.
do you really need to go see it? the answer is no. do you really need to add your 2 cent about a movie you obviously didn’t like? the answer is no. can you direct a better movie? write? produce? the answer is no. all you do is sit behind your computer bashing things YOU didn’t like. it doesn’t mean other people didn’t like em. so can you stfu?.. k thnx!
Hey Jackass, I mean Jadakiss,
COTT was dogshit.
You must somehow be involved with the film. Blind faith is unattractive.
Go grow a pair.
Hey douche bag, that “dogshit” made over $300 milli. Let me see you do better. Oh what what’s that? you can’t? then shut the hell up.
Hey Jackass. Leave this guy alone. We are just pissed off customers. We wanted to love the original movie. The trailer was so promising. Then the movie was garbage and then the studio deceived us by saying that Clash of the Titans was in 3D, when it was really fake post-converted 3D. As the customer, we deserve to be pissed off. Now they are doing a sequel in 3D and still are not shooting it in real 3D. It’s almost like Warners is mocking the customers. Now go back to kissing your bosses ass and choking on the Warner Bros. cool-aid.
You people are like parodies of foaming idiocy. The movie was decent. Obviously, somebody liked it. But apparently WB employees are good for 500 million worldwide.
So “no release at all” wasn’t an option?
For those who hated the recent COTT film, here’s a novel concept: Instead of bashing the first and its subsequent sequel online in small, dark forums where 70 comments is considered “a lot” – why not let the studios know how you feel with YOUR WALLETS. Don’t watch the sequel. Skip the theater, skip the DVD. Across the board, studio CEOs and their underlings respond to financial returns on their investments. If you’re confused about the necessity of a sequel to a “bad” movie, then you’re likely confused about a slew of other things. Check the worldwide box office and DVD numbers.
Stop feeling angry/sad about the quality of movies then shelling out cash for the next one. If everyone who hated a new restaurant’s food stopped going there for lunch – they might start to make better food. You don’t go back to the restaurant that gave you food poisoning a second, third, and fourth time and hope it all improves.
And on another note, I assure you no one in Hollywood intends to make a bad movie – not a single person. Bad movies are the result of the confluence of poor creative vision on the script and directorial level, executive underestimation of the quality of the creative vision, and/or the executive inability to effectively improve the creative vision due to the political morass involved when balancing the fragile egos of all studio executives, production company executives, writers, directors, various department heads, and actors involved.
So, it’s not easy to make a great movie but it is always possible. And if you expect higher quality in your art, then you have to demand it using your hard-earned cash as your loudspeaker. It’s perfectly acceptable to dislike substandard movies, but if you’re not willing to vote with your wallet, then your voice as a viewer will never be heard.
I agree that the COTT was not the best film especially if your are familiar with the original. However, I think the custumes and special effects were of good quality.
My problem was with the screenplay and the
execution. The story felt rushed and fragmented.
Lastly, the brand did establish a presence so with lessons-learned the opportunity to make a good sequel exist.
