Well good for you I guess.
I cringed so much at this movie.

And second, I enjoyed the movie. I certainly don't think it was the best, but it served its purpose. It was a mass-produced, prepackaged movie whose sole reason for existing was to entertain and not much else, and that's okay. I personally think there should be a bigger detachment in people's minds about a book and its movie. Yes, we all expect something from the movie, but I think we should also remember that there are numbers of people who went to go see it and hadn't even heard of the book. And just because your favorite book was turned into a bad movie does not mean it's the end of the world. Mediocrity is okay sometimes.
All in all, a decent movie, but a terrible adaptation. Just my two cents.

(Doesn't hurt that Logan Lerman was some seriously hot jail bait.)

(Anonymous) 2011-02-20 12:30 am (UTC)(link)I did like the book for how well the guy did his research but I couldn't read past the first one because the main characters annoyed me.

I can respect you for liking it and being honest, but I found it terrible. As a film it was just okay, not that good but not bad, it was entertaining enough and Kevin McKidd is damn sexy. As an adaptation, *cringes* it was really bad.
I liked The Lost Hero, but I was pretty disappointed with there being no Percy, too. However, I FUCKING LOVED LEO! I liked Piper and Jason enough, but I don't know...aside from the cool stuff, like Piper proving that Aphrodite's kids all aren't just pretty snobs or Jason being the son of a Roman god, they felt like recycled versions of Annabeth and Percy, both of whom I love, by the way. Leo, at times, kind of felt a bit like Grover, but I really appreciated that Riordan let us get into his mind of always feeling like the sidekick. I found his story the most interesting.

But I've been reading the books and I enjoy them. You're a cool guy for liking both after reading books first. :D
