The original is in my top 10 movies of all time, I haven't seen the remake so i'll have to stay reserved.
There's a paradigm of sorts I have to consider though, like Terminator Salvation. It is not a bad movie, but it's shit compared to the first two Terminator films, even the 3rd one is better in my opinion. This is mostly the fault of the director I think, as the writing was quite good at times though nothing was very memorable. John getting an artificial heart in the manner that he did was cheesy but in the good way, so I have to consider the film as a quality sci-fi that falls short of its legacy, it should have been stripped of its Terminator nods and made in to something new.
I'll have to see this Clash of the Titans remake this weekend. Here's to hoping for a more epic battle with Cerberus and the gorgon.
