dudes fucking rock. the effects in this were surprisingly top-notch. like genuinely all the stop motion was fantastic. I LOVE MINIATURES I LOVE BOATS IN BATHS I LOVE STOP MOTION I LOVE CLAYMATION!!!!!! i'm guessing sam raimi loved this as a kid. why did men stop dressing like this

I don’t know much about SFX but I think this is a solid jumping off point for explaining the concept of masks. The Talos and skeleton scenes are incredible. Especially where Talos crushes your man. The fights with the skeleton are well choreographed which plays off really nicely with the masks.
Sometimes it really doesn’t work like with the harpies.
Well-paced.
Your man playing Jason was not very good.

Yes Nolan this is how you cast a movie based on Greek myth and how the costumes should look aka NO PANTS And yes there should be COLOUR. Very Ancient Greece I like it
Overall this was a lot better than I thought it was going to be fun and easy watch for anyone who loves a heroic tale
