WB has annouced they are doing a remake of Clash of the Titans with Lawrence Kasdan writing the film, no director is set yet. Lawrence Kasdan has wrote The Empire Strikes Back & The Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The idea of a remake of this film would normally get me a bit worried but Kasdan doing the script makes me rather interested.

Why would you be "worried"? The first one was a cheese fest with some nice special effects (for the time). How could you make it worse?
-
Because the original WAS a cheesefest. They could have turned it into 300 or something, but Kasdan is trustworthy.

I don't see any reason to get pissed about this. It's not like the original movie was an original work, either. The movie may turn out lousy, but I see no real, basic reason to get upset over a remake.

I was a fan of the movie Jason and the Argonauts.
I also think they should not allow any CGI in the movie at all.

I wish we could go back to cheezy balsawood models and thit like that. Would be great.

I highly doubt they are doing this harryhauesen style. Why get a huge name like Kasdan to do a cheesey lowbudget fantasy?

Uwe Boll is directing.

Jason and the Argonauts is an amazing, amazing movie. Very fun too. God I'd kill for another Sinbad movie or a Jason and the Argonauts movie.

Argonauts got "remade" as a tv-mini series by the guys who did Merlin and The Odyssey

I think it depends on how they're approaching it. In the spirit of homage and tribute, I'm certain all kinds of big names would jump at a project like this to pay their respects to a legend. Kasdan being on board almost gives me the impression that this is sort of what they're going for.
On the other hand, they could be attempting to flesh out the actual mythology behind Perseus's little quest and are using the CotT namesake to draw in an established audience. I wouldn't mind this scenario so much either since the original is seriously lacking in this department.
Anyway, while it isn't like CotT is some kind of masterwork, I would hate to see them turn it into more sword & sandal schlock for a cash-in.

Yes sir. Very enjoyable 90's mini-series. I like Merlin more though.
