Clash of the Titans

1) Who are the Titans?
- The males were OceanusHyperionCoeusCronusCrius and Iapetus and the females were MnemosyneTethysTheia,PhoebeRhea and Themis.
2) Are the any interesting motifs you see frequently appearing (Eg. Lightning bolts)? How do you interpret their meaning? Can you name a modern version, of this motif, used today?
The atonal sound design for Medusa, who has no real theme but instead a motif of plucked strings and rattles. Also, the wrath of the Gods is a motif as well.
3) Is your Greek character in the movie? If so, does the film's interpretation match your research?
- No, my Greek character is not in the movie. And it doesn't really match my research.
5) Are any of the characters, in the movie, related (Eg. a mother or father, wife or husband, brother or sister) to your Greek myth? If so, how?
- Yes, Zeus. Zeus ordered Hephaestus to mold her out of earth. Hermes gave Pandora a shameful mind and deceitful nature, the power of speech, adorned her with a garland crown and the name Pandora.
6) Is their a constellation of stars named after your Greek character?
- There are no constellation of star named after my Greek character Pandora.
7) How is Medusa killed? Does your Greek character have a weakness?
Draco sacrificed himself by distracting the injured Medusa, so that Perseus could cut her head off her neck. My Greek chracter's weakness is her curiosity, she couldn't control it and open the box that wasn't supposed to be opened and let the creatures/evils come out.
