PJO-fan confession
I don’t like the Percy Jackson movies. I hate them completely. The writing sucks, the acting , for the most part, sucks, it lacks any soul or identity, and it is absolutely nothing like the books.
...But the thing is, if it weren’t for those stupid movies, I would’ve never have tried picking up the books.
I would’ve never been curious enough to pick them up and give them a read. And because of that dumbass first movie, i was able to read the first book out of interest and see how the books were far better than the movies. I was able to realize what I was missing out on and become a full-on Percy Jackson fanboy.
I know that they’re stupid. They really are! But for people like me, a generation that was introduced to the books through the movie, they were the Mrs. Dodds that horrifically dragged me into the world and inadvertently set me on a path to the real Camp Halfblood of the books, the beginning of a quest that no monster or crappy adaptation can pull me out of.
