Jason says to the Centaur, “Hey, I’m looking for my golden fleece,” and in annoyance, Medusa says to Jason, “So, why are you telling him about it?” Jason and the Centaur both turn to look at Medusa and…well, let’s just say, nothing else gets said. Get it? When they turned to look at her, of course, they turned to stone! She’s Medusa. Yes, I thought of all that on my very own. I apologize.

I am a huge Clash and Wrath of the Titans fan. Love anything with the word Titan in it. Also, anything with the word clash or wrath turns me on, too. So, don't piss me off, kay?

I’d like to continue to bore you tremendously here. So, let me take you back in time to the old Jason and the Argonauts. There is also a Jason and the Golden Fleece, if you remember. Jason was a busy guy, wasn’t he? So, you better leave now, if you treasure your time, because I am so about to waste it! Let’s delve into the past, shall we?

I think those “special” effects were pretty amazing! Especially, for those days. That’s what made them so creepy, I think. The odd, wobbly but stiff, way that the various godly characters moved and fought. They always looked like they had serious arthritis. Yes, like me nowadays!

Medusa’s snakes were all slithery and awesome. She always had her bitch face on. Chill out, lady. Take it down a notch…
