Jason and the Argonauts/YMMV

Jason and the Argonauts

 * Adaptation Displacement: Many fans are under the illusion that Harryhausen himself created the story.
 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: The dance scene in the Harryhausen film. In the Hallmark film, the scene where Zeus tempts Medea which is never mentioned again.
 * Complete Monster: Pelias in both versions. Aeetes could also count.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: The score is by Bernard Herrmann. Every cue is a CMOA!
 * Designated Hero: Jason, full stop. His goal to take back his kingdom may be admirable (though we don't know for sure if his father Aristo wasn't, say, a brutal tyrant), but it's hard not to notice his blatant indifference to the loss of crewmen over the course of his journey or his plans to filch the Golden Fleece out of Colchis.
 * Averted in the Hallmark film where he must find the Fleece or else his mother will be killed.
 * Fan Disservice: In the 60s film did we really have to see all the topless old men? And Hercules is definitely not a catch.
 * Ho Yay: Hylas and Hercules sure do pair up quick. Hylas essentially trying to pick up after his thoughtless boyfriend and, afterwards, Hercules quits the quest.
 * Large Ham: Zetes in the Hallmark film and Acastus in the Harryhausen one.
 * Narm: A good chunk of the Harryhausen film due to Todd Armstrong's awful acting, the fight with  in particular. The harpy scene also fails to be anyway intimidating.
 * The last few scenes in the Hallmark one are made comical by the fact that Pelias is actually wearing the Fleece and looks quite ridiculous.
 * The fight with the Skeletons starts out ok, as they silently, slowly march forward...before letting out a high-pitched "war cry" that sounds like a pack of angry schoolgirls. The scene continues on and is rightfully lauded, but for that one moment...
 * Visual Effects of Awesome: Every monster in the movie, but the crowning moment is undoubtedly the fighting skeletons scene. That 3 minute scene took Ray Harryhausen 4 months of solid work!
