Perseus
edit- "Just fix my body...and leave my soul to me."
Zeus
edit- "Your boy gave you strength. As did mine."
Hades
edit- "I am afraid, brother. Is that what you want me to say? I'm a god, and I'm afraid. When your precious humans die, at least their souls go to another place. When a god dies, it isn't death—it's just absence. It's nothing. It's Oblivion..." [whispers to self] "...it's Oblivion."
Andromeda
edit- "I'm sorry that you think being human is not enough. But we humans hope when there's no hope. And we believe when to believe is idiotic. But sometimes, in spite everything, we prevail."
Hephaestus
edit- "You are Perseus, son of Zeus. 'Release the Kraken,' all of that."
Agenor
edit- [smacks Perseus] Mutton head. Two days ago, I was trapped in a cell in a dungeon, admittedly, trying to escape— [to Andromeda] —unbecoming of the son of Poseidon— [back to Perseus] —but today I'm here, and I'm trying to save the universe. Jump in.
Dialogue
edit- Agenor: Don't give me the big speech.
- Perseus: Yeah, I wasn't planning to.
- Agenor: Helius! Come here, I've got a story to tell. Come and meet your Uncle Navigator. I'm Agenor.
- Helius: Helius. I've read that you are a great disappointment.
- Agenor: That's right. I am great.
- Helius: Dad, I'm actually looking forward to going home. I've decided, being a boring fisherman isn't that bad.
- Perseus: You know we can't go back home. [reluctantly offers him a sword] Take it. [as Helius hesitates] You're Helius. You're son of Perseus, the grandson of Zeus. [offers the sword again] Take it.
- Helius: [takes it, almost drops it] It's heavy.
- Perseus: Yeah, it is. Is it too much?
- Helius: [raises sword, looks at it; then quietly] No.
Quotes about Wrath of the Titans
edit- You get an idea of who the major players are, and then they spend a modest amount of time shouting laughable dialogue at one another while being all but forced off the screen by visual effects. ... I found myself wondering, just for the heck of it, how the movie might have played with a more traditional approach. You know. Literate, concise dialogue. ... You know, that kind of stuff.
