I love how "Bubu" the mechanical owl seems as if if he's just there for comic relief, then becomes an essential hero at the end of the movie.

The owl is not a comedy effect. The owl is the most representative symbol of ancient Greek civilization. In ancient Greece, the owl was considered the messenger and pet of the goddess Athena, and was also considered a symbol of Athena. There are owls on the flag and currency of Athens Symbols, and Athena loves heroes the most, and Athena blesses the ancient Greek heroes behind their adventures. There are a lot of ancient Greek movies with owls, and if you've seen an Odyssey animation, they also have an owl on the boat.

@@aiviloVideo Why not? It's a fairy tale. It teaches children values, it has imagination. You know what it *doesn't* have? *Vulgar language!* I watched this movie on television as a child. Many years later, it still stands up. No sequel, no endless franchise, just one movie that stands the test of time. If you have a problem with this movie being shown to children, then you must be appalled by the crap at the multiplex these days.

Absolutely brilliant. I love these old monster movies.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how great the soundtrack is and how it changes from despair to hope as the hero arrives. It's so crisp sounding. And the stop motion of Harryhousen shows that he was a master of his craft.

This scene, in the original version, is SO much better than the remake. Even the scene of Medusa hunting down Perseus in her palace had far more tension and forboding than the modern remake. For its time, this film was a masterpiece, and still holds up well against modern CGI crap.

I loved this movie. It's still one of my favorites. I was always bothered by how long it took him. I mean, the Kraken WAS RIGHT THERE! It's looking at her and Perseus is like...in the mountains? Then it looks at her some more. Now he's over the palace. Then it looks some more at her, makes grabby hands, and THERE HE IS! But he can't get the freaking bag open!!! This killed me as a child, Lol.

This Medusa was way scarier looking than the new version.

I kinda felt sad for the Kraken. He's kept in an underwater cage in complete isolation from the outside world, he's probably kept starving so he's compelled to eat the first thing he sees, and then he innocently looks at Madusa's head....and then in a final cry he's turned to stone. I hope in his death his soul can be free 😢

Saw this in the theater when I was 12, still remember it being a lot of fun.

The Greek legends also says that when Perseus threw Medusa’s head in the ocean, the current caused the head to roll around on the ocean floor turning all the plant life into coral.

At 03:35, the discus throw! How he threw the gorgon's (Medusa) head. I think it was added to the Olympics.

Ol' Andromeda is pretty casual about the whole thing. Olivier-level acting here.

Good effects for its time It’s amazing seeing the evolution of effects and what they could do at the time Big monsters coming out of the ocean are scary

Very beautiful❤

Why would Perseus chuck Medusa's head into the sea, isn't that rather irresponsible, then every fish that looks at her would turn to stone.

Oh! I didn't look closely at the title. I just knew there was a 1981 movies about this. Loved the new movies with all the CGI glory. you can really feel how this scene is imagined.

3:36 "and that's why we cannot eath fish anymore, my son"

I love the fact that all sealife in the area become stone after the head toss.

It's kinda funny and cool at the same time that the actor playing Perseus would reprise his role in God of War 2. It doesn't end well for him though.

At least in Fire Emblem, they mention that pegaso move by "kicking" the air, not by flapping their wings. So, they're really doing a similar motion to this one, galloping, while I imagine the wings are for steering and gliding.
