Sam Worthington has grown his hair out into some kind of late 70s/early 80s disaster fluff, Liam Neeson's beard is beardier than ever, and Marilyn Manson is moaning on the soundtrack. What, you need more than that to convince you that Wrath of the Titans is going to be your new monster-based guilty pleasure? Well, there are also giant, burning creatures and Worthington's Perseus zooming around on his badass Pegasus, plus there's some guy with like two torsos and four swords who is getting busy with the humans. Buy yourself a reefer party pack and get ready for burnination. More »

An insane, probably false new plot synopsis suggests the mysterious J.J. Abrams movie Super 8 might be nothing like what we'd expected. We explain why casting decisions for the Clash of the Titans might affect the Superman reboot. The producer of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter talks casting and action sequences for our suddenly kickass 16th president. Torchwood: Miracle Day might have an unexpected guest star. More »

]]> http://io9.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=5597152&view=rss&microfeed=true We loved Clash of the Titans (see io9's enthusiastic review), and our only complaint was that the 3D looked crappy. That's why it's a perfect DVD flick, because you get all the campy, fun goodness of giant monsters and none of the tacked-on 3D stuff. Now you can win a Clash of the Titans DVD if you skip over to our Facebook page and answer one simple question - about krakens, of course! We've only got three DVDs to give away, so now is the time to krakenize! More »
