Hotel di Bandung - Ah memes. They really never get old. Until one does, and a newcomer rises up to take its place. You don't need to have seen "Clash of the Titans" to get in on today's hot Internet meme. The goods are right there in the trailer. Liam Neeson, as Zeus, swallows scenery more than he does chew it as he shouts out a line throwing back to the original film: "Release the Kraken!!!"
Bandung - This tiny moment has spawned a legion of Photoshops. What constitutes a Kraken? Sure, we get a glimpse of the thing in the trailer. But Internet-using folk have their own ideas. Some of which you can see in the video below, set to hilarious music.
Clash of the Titans is a certified hit, but making it was no toga party.
"The gods are not like the gods you expect," says Luke Evans, who plays Apollo in the 3-D remake of the 1981 film of the same name. "There's not a toga in sight."
Instead, Sam Worthington and company wore custom-fitted armor. And not just any armor…
"It was 22-karat gold!" Evans says. "It wasn't too bad. It was heavyish, but after you've worn it 17 hours, you do start to ache."
Evans said they made casts of everyone's bodies for the costumes. "They had to cast my head as well," he said. "It was very weird to have your whole body, including your whole head, covered. It's very claustrophobic. It solidifies while it's on you and then they have to cut it off."
How anatomically detailed was it? "I had a tiny little pair of pants on," he said, laughing. "They also covered all the hairy bits in Nivea cream so it wouldn't stick."
No word on whether he'll have to go through this all again for his next role. Evans recently signed on to play—we kid you not—Zeus, opposite Twilighter Kellan Lutz in War of the Gods.
