Love love love his stop motion monsters. Glad to see someone out there on the inner-webs made a list of his top 11 picks:

My first Harryhausen experience was Clash of the Titans. Medusa scared the piss out of me.

I can't wait until Davis is old enough to watch those classic flicks - Jason and the Argonauts, Golden Voyage of Snibad, Seventh Voyage of Sinbad, and yes, Clash of the Titans.

That will be tricky. I tried that with my son and while he could appreciate stop/motion he was used to so much quicker editing/pacing he found Clash a little boring. But not as boring as E.T. at least.

I'm waiting for when I can sit around on a Saturday afternoon with my nieces and watch Godzilla movies.

The Sinbad series and Clash of the Titans were a staple of my childhood. I would drop whatever I was doing and sit my chubby ass down in front of the tv mesmerized.
