Jacoby746 Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 You haven't even read the first one? Nope. Didn't see the book 2 on the side.I got it in 4th grade and I didn't read it until 7th grade last last year. And I never bothered to buy the book.

Phantom Roxas Posted August 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 I highly doubt that. It's existence would only increase the popularity of the books, which are undoubtedly better than the movie will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 I fear this movie will be as bad as the Eragon film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milk-Chan Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 It is a great series, I highly recommend reading it. I have not finished it, but from what I have read, it is a really great series that will keep you hooked.Hope the movie is good! By the way, I hope it doesn't end up like Twilight, where people who liked the movie claim to be fans just 'cause they liked the movie. ( I hate Twilight btw ).

Phantom Roxas Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Well, Twilight is admittedly a very popular and apparently faithful adaptation. As much as I really hate to say it, I want this movie to at least reach that level of popularity and accuracy. Sadly, it will only be at Eragon level.

Poseidon© Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Epic Series is Epic. I have to agree with PR, maybe it will turn out like Eragon. But then again, Chris Columbus is going to direct it (directer of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest King of Games Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 My big brother is working on the film, (along with the 100+ people with the exact same job, but still...) I regretably have not read the series, but now i really want to. Great special effects from what ive seen, but thats the same reaction i had to Eragon at first, and that was the only good thing about that movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Supreme Gamesmaster Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I fear this movie will be as bad as the Eragon film.That would have to be a rather spectacular failure on Columbus-san's part; Eragon was a horrendous half-adaptation of a book that wasn't nearly as good as Lightning Thief pre-adaptation.

Phantom Roxas Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Considering the fact that Columbus didn't work on Eragon and instead worked on the first three Harry Potter films, this may not be as bad, but I'm placing the success of this film on the shoulders of Brandon T. Jackson and Alexandra Daddario, since it will be impossible for them to get Grover and Annabeth right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 The books sound familiar to me, but what're they about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver The Hedgehog Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 They are about about how goes to this camp, called Camp Half-Blood that trains the Son/Dauters of the Ancient Greek Gods then Percy (the main character) Has to stop the evil lord (Whatshisname) or the world is destroyed.

Frozen Judgment Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I loved the percy jackson books. I think it's good that they're making a movie. They could've picked a better cast though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
