"I'm happy the films are appreciated today, but when they were made, fantasy movies just weren't very popular. They were considered B pictures," Harryhausen says. "We had to do things like use stock footage from other movies to cut corners. In the beginning, we couldn't afford a composer. We couldn't even afford color."And now, Ray, for reasons entirely not your fault, we have nothing but corner-embellishing, lavishly-scored, full-color B PICTURES.
