I thought it was a lot of fun and I loved the characters. Watching it if I was a huge fan of the books and series? Yeah, probably would hate it because it's extremely different. Even Rick Riordan doesn't like the movies. But, like you said, they use the material to make a good movie rather than a good adaptation. I do understand why fans of the books wouldn't enjoy them, with all the changes that are made. And I'd be one of those who get completely pissed off that they can't even get a characters hair colour right.Reviews from a Bookwormhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12694156080937232949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-53223315219530163722014-08-24T20:06:27.231+01:002014-08-24T20:06:27.231+01:00Are you going to watch the second film?Are you going to watch the second film?Lyn Kayehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10471867801089862828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-4167247339048318152014-08-23T12:28:00.657+01:002014-08-23T12:28:00.657+01:00It's definitely a film people aren't a hug...It's definitely a film people aren't a huge fan of, but I really enjoyed it :)Amanda Grayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04357839391966441808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-81996368441274994982014-08-23T12:27:19.340+01:002014-08-23T12:27:19.340+01:00I know!

And yes, she couldn've, it wouldn't made a huge difference for me, but hey, can't please everyone!

It was wildly different from the book, but like you said, it's kind of unwise to EVER compare books vs.movies. I kind of think of movies as fanfic and it helps me not fret so much about the major changes. I get why they made the characters older! It worked better for me, buuuut Annabeth COULD'VE JUST HAD BLONDE HAIR. *breathes deeply* Still, it was funny. Grover had some awesome lines!Caithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14954615708675952085noreply@blogger.com
