We recently saw the new Clash of the Titans. It mostly seemed like many scenes had been filmed and then ended up on the cutting room floor- especially of our two hunters who inserted themselves into the traveling party, got Perseus his shield, and the disappeared again, except for a brief cameo at the end. They ended up simply confusing us more than anything else, as we tried to keep track of who was who.
Then there were the random desert guys, who also appeared briefly and then left the party. I am still not certain what their purpose was.
