Now let’s get into it, there’s a lot to unpack here. I’m not touching the train wreck that is Sea of Monsters.
#THE LIGHTNING THIEF MOVIE MOVIE#
If you’re interested in watching the movie and reading my comments along with it, I’ve left timestamps at the end of each section that correspond to the scenes on Disney+.ĭisclaimer #3: This is only a review for the first movie. When was the last time any of you even watched The Lightning Thief ? If it’s been more than six months, I don’t want to hear it.ĭisclaimer #2: This is a deep dive into the nuances of The Lightning Thief so if you’ve never heard of Percy Jackson and want to know the full story, just look up the synopsis on wiki or read the book. And unfortunately, Riordan should have known when he used a publishing house to finish his books that he lost some of the rights to his characters when it comes to adaptations. It’s part of the movie writing and adaptation process. It sucks to have a story you spent years crafting a perfecting be disregarded for the ideals of some big movie execs. It’s incredibly frustrating to have something so personal to you be changed from your original vision. I don’t really care what Rick Riordan says he’s a grown man that has better things to do than complain about something that’s so stupidly mediocre and also 12 years old at this point.ĭisclaimer #1: As a creative and aspiring author/screenwriter, I get it.
Let’s see if I can close the can of worms I just opened.
