Loved this movie as a kid. It doesn't really hold up but the Harryhausen stop motion animation is so moody and ethereal.

[@SARHistories]

It has that nostalgic feeling for me. Harryhausen animations really captured my imagination. Sadly it doesn’t hold up to capture the imagination of younger generations. 👍

Doesn't hold up⁉️ I guess I see what u mean, but why is it so much better than the new one? That Medusa scene! I don't know how I was able to handle that as a kid😮

[@AdrianneJH]

Yeah I was very upset when I realized that it didn't go down like Burgess Meredith said it did. I thought about those scorpions a lot but not as much as Calebas (sp?) who wasn't really a thing apparently

dude, you need to sort your audio out. the music is louder than your voice most of the time

[@SARHistories]

Yes, I agree. I’ll do better going forward. 👍
