Today we have the final trailer, four clips and twelve posters for the trippy fantasy epic "Gods of Egypt".
The movie has been slammed by critics, which was actually to be expected if you've watched any of the trailers. Reviewers say that it's so bad it's not even good. The movie is apparently so abysmally bad that Rottentomatoes.com actually wrote a poetic riff on Percy Bysshe Shelley's sonnet "Ozymandias" instead of their usual prosaic Critical Consensus: Look on Gods of Egypt, ye filmgoers, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay of this colossal wreck, boundless and bare. The lone and level sands stretch far away. (Apologies to Shelley.)" Yup, I guess that's pretty freakin' bad.
Directed by Alex Proyas ("The Crow"), the film stars Brenton Thwaites, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Gerard Butler, Courtney Eaton, Abbey Lee, Geoffrey Rush, Rufus Sewell, Elodie Yung and Chadwick Boseman.
"Gods of Egypt" opens in theaters on February 26th, 2016.
Check out the trailer, clips and posters after the jump.

Official Synopsis
"Magic, monsters, gods and madness reign throughout the palaces and pyramids of the Nile River Valley in this action-adventure inspired by the classic mythology of Egypt. With the survival of mankind hanging in the balance, an unexpected hero takes a thrilling journey to save the world and rescue his true love. Set (Gerard Butler), the merciless god of darkness, has usurped Egypt’s throne, plunging the once peaceful and prosperous empire into chaos and conflict. With only a handful of heroic rebels opposing Set’s savage rule, Bek (Brenton Thwaites), a bold and defiant mortal, enlists the aid of powerful god Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) in an unlikely alliance against the evil overlord. As their breathtaking battle against Set and his henchmen take them into the afterlife and across the heavens, both god and mortal must pass tests of courage and sacrifice if they hope to prevail in the spectacular final confrontation."
