Why must some people care whether this movie is not accurate, the 'remake' may be critically panned despite being historically accurate. Everyone should enjoy this classic movie.
Settle down nerds.... I remember seeing this over an over as a little kid, fed my imagination greatly. The scene with the witches on the ship was terrifying at the the time. Classic fantasy film, good for kids 6 to 11 years perhaps.
Didn't even know about this movie until I saw the remake trailer... and yet this version still looks way more enjoyable. Though that's probably because it all seems to take place in broad daylight as opposed to the grim "edgy" atmosphere seen in the new one. That, and, well, Harryhausen.
stupid. the new one is going to be better because the technology is better. don't be dumb people this is probably just a 2 hour long sleeping pill compared to today's standards.
@darklink5678 and if youre not a needy label fascist baby with nothing better to do, you could go to almost any mainstream store and, if they dont have a billion columns for every possible genre, you will more often than not find fantasy lumped in with, or as a sub-genre of, sci-fi, often by the promoters of the actual film, AS WAS DONE IN THIS CASE AT THE TIME IF YOU LOOK UP ADS--so get off your soapbox and go back to talking about arrows in the knee on the Skyrim forums or whatever you do

And Ray Harryhausen did not do the stop-motion for this, it was some other guys.

The new one is more accurate of the tale of of the Giant Killer. This sugar coated and does not capture the brutality of pre and feudal England.
This tale is more for history and myth nerds.

SEE the film's protagonist hit right in the face with a bucket of water, causing him to stumble into the ocean! 2:03

THIS is the Jack the Giant Killer I know. The only one I will acknowledge! My soul died a little when I saw the trailer for the remake. What rubbish.

@bethiemw How pathetic; choosing to completely ignore the remake based on one trailer. It might be better for all you know.

The 2012 version is not a remake this is a deep mythological lore and this film really did not do it justice.
The lore is very violent and brutal this film did not capture this.
