Mythology Movies We Want To See(But are scared cause Hollywood may screw it up)

edited March 2018 in General Chat

I have been watching and hearing and reading Greek Mythology videos and never has even ONCE!! Do they think if there should be a Medusa movie or even a(A better love story than twilight)Hades and Persephone movie! Like if ppl want a new franchise to focus on?

Than make a movie franchise(but Rated R) and make it more like what everybody wants to see in their movies. Like i'm all for a altered history movie about Medusa and she fights hard to survive and even Cry's herself to sleep and wishes somebody notice her and sees her as a true beauty not just some snakish looking scales woman. I think somebody does help her and saves and trains her to fight Perseus and maybe defeats him and I think the person to do that is either god-like man who similar to understanding Medusa's pain and sadness and I think it's Hades and Persephone's son Zagreus. I mean COME ON!! It sounds good!

Like what is your thoughts on there being sometime like that and what mythology movie would you like to watch on the big screen.

  • Hi
    That's a cool idea. I'm almost paranoid about mythology. In fact, I watch or read every movie or book if it contains a slight hint on mythology. Greek mythology is also interesting, especially I like Ares. I'd watch a movie about him. That could be a damn good movie!
    Currently, I'm reading the Game of Thrones series. Just wonder if you like it. Several years ago was obsessed with Vila myths.

    I like Game Of Thrones and just a reminder? I would love if HBO created something simliar to Game Of Thrones and I think the mythology of greek god but different cause I think Athena andPoseidon are the bad ones (cause what they did to Medusa)including Zeus I read about what he did to Persephone when she was married to Hades(Sick Guy Zeus is)and I really think it could work. (I did once but it was about Rome than Greek Mythology) and besides the fantasy about it is simliar to Game Of Thrones just no dragons that is.

    I think the story could be called War Of The Gods(or WOTG for short)kinda like Game Of Thrones.

    One other interesting thing to say about Medusa is that she survives and she probably had help from Zagreus(who is god of hunting and rebirth)so interesting that Medusa must of learned that using a bow was good cause Zagreus trains her.

    He trains and they both fall in love and a passionate night together.But passion and love between starts when Zagreus has a knife on his throat and it is from Medusa and I think from his words that he loves her and his entire(just like his father)life understand loneliness and sadness and pain cause he saw it from her and (basically the reason there is a way between the gods) experienced from what he heard from his father Hades.That Hades killed Zeus for Raping his Wife,Persephone. Which in turn Persephone birthed Melinoe and she was going to be protected by her brother Zagreus and her (well,Hades has been more a father to her than POS Zeus)true father Hades and cared for by Persephone treats her differented than her mother Demeter.

    After that Medusa in a emotional and thinking paranoia all time from staying the island alone.Sees Zagreus wipe away her tears off her face and in seconds she kisses him and (well you know Love and Passion in the cold rainy night) that night and months go by since that night and they trained everyday and knowing each other and shared a interesting nights together until Perseus arrived and was defeated by Medusa with the help of Zagreus that is.

    That would make such a good movie or a HBO style TV series and I think I told a good story in this comment. Lol

    Two words: Percy Jackson.

    Great book series... and I'm still mad at Disney for screwing up the movies.

  • Fox made the movies, not Disney.

    Well I tried watching Percy Jackson movies,but I always get pissed off over what happens to Medusa. Like I just gave a good idea about Medusa on here I showed her falling in love with Hades and Persephone's Son,Zagreus and her training with him to survive and seeing her sisters again.

    Really? I could've sworn I heard someone say something about Rick Riordan selling the rights to Disney... Well WHOEVER screwed it up, I'm mad at them.

  • honestly everything i could want out of greek mythology is very well given in the video game industry so i'm good with it as is. i really want some more chinese mythology films or lovecraft/kaiju movies if we're talking about cultural mythology beast films. of course this is if they do it right.

  • Well Disney will eventually own the rights to Percy Jackson once the Fox buy out goes through. But yeah, Fox are the ones who made the first two movies.

  • I don't want Disney making Mythology movies no matter what. I think somehow Hollywood pushes a Agenda driven movies than actual story driven movies. I want to see a very respectful movie about Medusa and since we won't be getting a respectful movie about her since every single time she gets killed and her head gets cut off.

    I like story that I did and maybe someone on some YouTube of maybe a teaser of actual 45 minutes about her life and what happened to her. I think Zagreus being the one who saves her and trains her to defeat Perseus. It sounds more better that why than just typical movie about her being a monster.

  • The one where Zeus seduces the Queen of Sparta by appearing as a swan.

  • Or? Zeus and Lamia where Zeus had children with her and than killed them after Hera(Evil Bitch) found out why Zeus didn't care about Lamia and didn't even show sadness for killing her children. Then she was turned to half-snake and half-woman. I think the story I did in the beginning of this thread I said where Zeus raped his daughter and wife of Hades and Hades killed Zeus and perhaps Zagreus tells her this about Zeus's death and Lamia becomes happy after learning it.

    The one where Zeus seduces the Queen of Sparta by appearing as a swan.

  • You know I have another interesting idea of a Greek Mythology movie? Hades and Persephone movie! I LOVE THIS COUPLE SO DAMN MUCH!

    Ok,I got a another it is the same Mythology franchise that I was thinking about. When Medusa is saved by and train by Zagreus and they do fall in love and have a night of passion and soon find her sisters too. But I think they will gather Allies against the War On The Gods. Like Arachne. I mean she was turned into a half-human and half-spider by Athena and probably wants revenge the same way Medusa and her sisters want against Athena.

    Not mention they need a strong Ally like the Minotaur. Like Hell Yeah!!! That badass half-Ox and half-human warrior. God it will be soooooo good.

    Oh I got a another one. Yeah take notes Hollywood I made a list including help from my gf. After returning to the future where the War On The Gods rage on. Gaia is happy to see her grandchildren Medusa,Stheno,Euryale again(her daughters)being recused by Zagreus and has soon as they arrive to the underworld Gaia (Medusa,Stheno,Euryale's grandmother)tells them their parents Phorcys and Ceto(both sea gods) were both killed by Poseidon and Medusa and her sisters realize they will never see their parents and get emotional and angry(especially Stheno and Euryale's and Later Medusa)at Poseidon. But then Gaia realizes Thera (Lava Titan)is trapped in Atlantis where Poseidon has trapped and imprisoned her and Zagreus trys recruit soldiers in the underworld to free her and Medusa, Stheno,Euryale join also along with Others who seem now more encouraged to join the War On The Gods and Zagreus claim to the Olympus throne.

    Gaia also joins the fight to free her child after seeing her Grandchildren(Medusa, Stheno,Euryale)safe again. Minotaur joins to help Zagreus after being saved too. Both set to free Thera while others Zagreus,Medusa, Stheno,Euryale are both set on Revenge against Poseidon.

    Okay I remember I said Persephone was raped by her father Zeus(asshole POS)and then killed by Hades,right? Which started the War On The Gods after Hades freed the Titans. Well after that Melinoe was born and she always knew Hades wasn't her father,but she didn't care cause she knew Hades acted more like a father than anyone she knew. Persephone (her mother)was glad and later when Zagreus arrived with Stheno,Medusa,and Euryales.

    She grew liking to Stheno and started to fall in love with her and even wanted to travel with her half-brother Zagreus with Medusa,Stheno,and Euryale's cause she wanted grow closer to Stheno. This is when Stheno was starting to understand Melinoe feelings towards her. I think it was then Stheno and Melione shared a kiss after they came back from defeating Poseidon and both Zagreus,Medusa,and Stheno were both horribly wounded after the fight and both Medusa and Zagreus tended to their wounds together while Stheno fought off being tended by people in the underworld.

    Melinoe started to tended but before doing so. She asked if Stheno wanted to. Which Stheno angerily accepted Melinoe's help and soon they kissed and fell in love more and had some passion too. Yup I think I am doing a good job with this story I am making so far.

    More Fantasy than Myth but the Chronicles Of Narnia a fantasy series that could of potentially been as big as Lord Of The Rings has had a terrible Hollywood run.

    The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe - Disney
    Prince Caspian - Disney
    Voyage Of The Dawn Treader - 20th Century FOX
    And now Sony is making The Silver Chair for a 2019 release.

    The BBC movies are pretty good though, although extremely outdated.

  • Yeah I like Fantasy too,but we have seen enough fantasy lately with The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit movies. I mean I love fantasy,but i know some people may not like this,but everybody is sick and fantasy and I am already into Mythology movies.

    I mean I love the Lord of the rings and the Hobbit but I already done with that franchise now. Now I am getting sick and tired of the Harry Potter new franchise called Fanastic Beasts and where to find them. Like I thought we would discuss the issue of non-magic and magical people having to hide and use haterd on both sides of the teo governments like The Magical Congress and the U.S Congress but that didn't happen at all and I'm already tired of it.

  • Mmmhh I think their should be a other Greek Mythology movie or TV series about Hecate The Mother of Witchcraft, Necromancy,and Magic. Also the Mother of Witches. I feel I don't know why ppl don't make a good TV series about these things. Instead we get the same old bullshit from Hollywood and turn it into bullshit. Still Greek Mythology is a Fanastic thing to put into today's culture

  • I got a another one too. A movie about wicthes since it is based inside both mythologies like the Roman and Greek mythology. This one is about the challenges of their survival and trying to protect themselves and try to seek help from unlikely people in a timeline where the Inquisition and times of witch hunting. Most often they do their best to survive and fall in love with the people that protect them.
