Clash of the Titans/Awesome

1981 Version
"Perseus: I'll set out in search of the Stygian Witches on my own.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: The giant scorpion fight (both versions), not to mention the fight with Medusa.
 * Visual Effects of Awesome: Medusa. If it doesn't look that impressive to you, consider how hard it is to get the highlights cast by flickering torches right when they're being cast on something created by stop motion animation!
 * When Bubo rescues Pegasus from Calibos's goon squad.
 * When Andromeda insists on going with Perseus to find the Stygian Witches, shows she's a real Badass Damsel instead of a regular Damsel in Distress.

Andromeda: No. We will ride with you as far as their shrine. It is a long and perilous journey.

Perseus: Too perilous for a princess.

Andromeda: You are not my lord and husband -- not yet. In the absence of the Queen, it is I who'll command."


 * Pegasus rising up out of the water after the battle with the Kraken, you can tell he was preening for all those who were watching.

2010 remake
"Hades: I am a God. I will live forever.
 * During the final battle, as Perseus is attempting to slay the Kraken, Hades shows up to interfere, splitting himself into a half dozen of what this troper assumes are Erinyes and engaging Perseus (riding Pegasus) in a massive aerial battle for Medusa's head. That's right,
 * Also from the remake, Calibos's Dynamic Entry. He gets the drop on Perseus's gang, grabs a Red Shirt and tears him in half with his bare hands.
 * And again, the remake gives us this exchange:

Perseus: But not here. (cue divine ownage)"


 * The entire group gets one after raiding Medusa's lair.

Wrath of the Titans
"Zeus: Let's have some fun."
 * The battle between Perseus and Ares is memorable.
 * Zeus and Hades against the Legions of Hell at full stop.
 * Zeus and Hades against the Legions of Hell at full stop.


 * The fight against Cronos by Perseus counts too.
 * The Labyrinth itself counts as one big Crowning Moment of Awesome.
