Looking for recent fantasy action movie

I'm looking for a recent fantasy action movie released sometime between 2014-17 of which I saw the trailer a few weeks ago. It looked a lot like 300 (2007), Immortals (2011), and Wrath of the Titans (2012) and was also based on either Greco-Roman or Egyptian mythology. It could be that it was a Sony Entertainments release, but I'm not sure. From the trailer, I vividly remember a scene where a deity was rapidly approaching two mortals by flight, and when one mortal asks the other why he is running away, he's answered something like, "It's always been wise for us mortals not to meddle in the affairs of the immortals!" --2003:71:4E6A:C933:D185:4265:A8A5:D9D6 (talk) 12:01, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

"The cabin in the woods" original language

I'm watching the film "The cabin in the woods." The actors' voices all seem to be dubbed into English, although I see nothing about it having been filmed in some non-English speaking country. It does not look like just some slight lack of synchronism of sound and picture. Actors are from the US, Australia and New Zealand. Could it be like the "Lone Ranger" film where star Klinton Spilsbury's voice was overdubbed with a more impressive voice? Edison (talk) 19:29, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

I just checked my DVD copy, and the voices sync perfectly (no sign of even ADR). -- Finlay McWalterᚠTalk 19:32, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

I'm watching on the SyFy channel. and it looks like they have "cleaned up" some of the language to remove obscenities or references to sex. They might have overdubbed some scenes for broadcast. Edison (talk) 19:55, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

SyFy is a basic cable (non-premium) station, yes? They likely are doing just as you say. When I had cable, this always bothered me about James Bond movies that were shown on TBS. Always made me wonder what else they cut out. Dismas|^(talk) 22:12, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
