Jason of the Argonauts is my favorite fantasy film, and the scenes on Talos's island are my favorites.<BR/><BR/>2.

Needless to say, he was never beaten.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-14920083456964868662009-01-11T11:18:00.000-06:002009-01-11T11:18:00.000-06:00"Triple iron golem" always put me in mind of Geryo..."Triple iron golem" always put me in mind of Geryon the three-bodied ogre cowherd (the six-armed, three-headed brute was the cover boy on my old UK edition of Roger Lancelyn Green's "Tales of the Greek Heroes").<BR/><BR/>The multi-faced, multi-armed monstrosity take seems right.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04072272223837426211noreply@blogger.com
