Old-school Clash of the Titans vs. The Princess Bride.

Both great movies. Which do you prefer?

My choice is Clash of the Titans. Loved those special effects so much, I could'nt bear to watch the newer version.

    Wasn't that dreamy Harry Hamlin in Clash?

    Me, I'll take Princess Bride. Too much good stuff and cast and scenes, and...yeah. Total classic.

    Does the winner go up against Beastmaster?

    I reckon Princess Bride would slay the Beastmaster as well. What about Willow vs. Beastmaster? Would that be more of a contest? I haven't watched Beastmaster .

    BM was with Marc Singer, who was the greatest tier 2 fantasy semi leading man of the early 80's. I'm not sure PB would slay him. Willow was a much more serious movie than the Beastmaster.

    I'm going to have to watch that this weekend. Thanks for the info! Now I'm curious to see how Beastmaster would fare against PB.

    Don't expect too much and please don't blame me for wasting 2 hours of your life.

    FWIW, I much prefer Clash of teh Titans to Princess Bride. PB never did it for me. I must have seen Clash as many times as I've seen Time Bandits.. another favorite from my youth.

    And I LOVE Time Bandits. Start to finish, and George's song at the credits. Just a beautiful, funny, sweet and actually quite deep film.
