Long ago, in the far away landof ancient Greece...
:00:21
there was a golden ageof powerful gods...
:00:24
and extraordinary heroes.
:00:26
And the greatest and strongestof all these heroes...
:00:29
was the mighty Hercules.
:00:32
But what is the measureof a true hero?
:00:35
That is what our story is...
:00:37
Will you listen to him?
:00:39
He's makin' the story soundlike some Greek tragedy.
:00:41
Lighten up, dude.
:00:43
We'll take itfrom here, darling.
:00:45
You go, girl.
:00:48
We are the Muses...
:00:51
goddesses of the artsand proclaimers of heroes.
:00:54
Heroes like Hercules.
:00:56
Honey, you mean "Hunk-ules."
:00:58
I'd like to make some sweetmusic with him...
:01:00
Our story actually begins...
:01:03
long before Hercules,many eons ago
:01:09
Back when the world was new
:01:11
The planet Earth wasdown on its luck
:01:14
And everywhere gigantic brutescalled Titans ran amok
:01:20
It was a nasty place
:01:23
There was a messwherever you stepped
:01:26
Where chaos reigned
:01:27
and the earthquakes andvolcanos never slept
:01:30
Say it, girlfriend!
:01:32
And then along came Zeus
:01:34
- He hurled his thunderbolt- He zapped
:01:36
Locked those suckers in a vault
:01:38
They're trapped
:01:40
And on his own,stopped chaos in its tracks
:01:43
And that's the gospel truth
:01:45
The guy was too "Type A"to just relax
:01:49
And that'sthe world's first dish
:01:51
Yeah, baby.
:01:52
Zeus tamed the globewhile still in his youth
:01:55
Though, honey,it may seem impossible
:01:58
That's the gospel truth
