And not even Clash of the Titans can stop the Greco-onslaught.
He’ll probably be good at it, because he wrote Last Action Hero. Which was in no way the shittiest film of all time. Promise.
I’m betting you’ve looked at some of the film posters adorned on the tube escalators and thought, what the fraggle rock is this? You think you can do better?
