Even if you didn't like the first one, give this one a chance, it will be much better than the first one waaaay more loyal to the book

 

Pleez folks, I REALLY wanna c the whole series turned into movies, spread the word, etc. would be greatly appreciated!  

 

Just imagine how you would feel in Kingdom Hearts' place, and ask urselves, what would Aqua n Sora do?

  • How is this a petition? A petition is trying to cause a change, not telling people to watch a movie. Also, who the heck has the money to go watch one movie that many times in one month? And what if pe

  • No. This is nonsense. Why don't you wait until Home DVD/Blu-Ray release so YOU could watch it multiple times?

  • It's up to the viewer, if the film interests them then they will view it. It's nice that you want a movie to do well but a petition is too help a cause, watching a movie isn't a cause it's a choice of

They sure did! :)

Just watched the trailer a second time, paying more attention.

 

Yeah it's gonna be a piece of shit, probably. It looks like it's making an honest effort to fix the damage of the first film, which is good, but while simultaneously wrecking the second book... I guess you have to break something to fix something else. Kinda like covering up shit with another pile of shit... yeah, the other pile of shit is gone now, but now you just have more shit to deal with.

 

Granted, some things do look good... Annabeths hair is nice... Percy's hair has been destroyed... is it not supposed to be long? Why did they cut it short? Really? Why?

Tyson looks terrible. The fates themselves look pretty good, but it looks like the Taxi sequence is just gonna be pure crap. Apparently a chariot race was to tame.

 

The oracle, what little we see of her, looks nice. The voice itself is perfect, but her dialogue is shit. She's supposed to speak in prophecies, not carry on a conversation... the voice actress did a Quarian in Mass Effect though so that's awesome.

 

Nathan Fillion as the actor for Hermes is a pretty good choice. But only on the merit that it's Nathan effing Fillion. He could be playing Percy and I wouldn't care. But no, he isn't like how I pictured him in the book. Also, it doesn't look like he's going to help Percy solo like he did in the book, but rather help the trio after they have already left the camp, which is wrong.

 

It would appear that the entire plot point with Grover and the cyclops has been dropped, and it's based solely on the Golden Fleece. Not quite sure how I feel about that... Grovers search for Pan was a pretty important point for Grovers development, BUT it didn't have any impact on the main narrative, so it being trashed is actually something I can justify, and am okay with. Go figure.

 

Jury is still out on whether Circe is gonna show up... if she doesn't, then they've trashed a big part of Reyna's development if they ever get so far as to make a Heroes of Olympus series. I know that's thinking way to far ahead, but hey... I did want to see Percy turned into a guinea pig on film though... sad face.

 

But the Kronos plot point looks to be fixed, which is good. The Luke plot point seems to be fixed, which is good. Annabeth is blonde, good.

 

But yeah. It's gonna suck the big one.

 

Maybe I'll be wrong though, maybe it will be awesome. Doubt it, but hey, optimism yayyyy

What is ur problem? I mean its good to have opinions and all of that, but why be so negative and ruin it for other people? Keep an open mind, don't extort to negativity saying its gonna be shit, when i can guarantee you, having seen the movie in rough form myself, that it is not! Just give it a chance relax and keep ur optimism. You do no that by talking about it being shit, you sound like an idiot right? I knew this (excuse my language but he deserves it, if u only knew him) fat firetrucker in high school who always kept complaining about how movies n such were a "pile of dog shit"; all this negativity being spoiled and complaining, and guess what? He failed grade 12, and is currently going nowhere doing nothing with his life, even though he said he "found Jesus", he still went around being an ass and complaining and manipulating people 

 

So I guess my moral is, stay in the light and be positive, keep your opinions, but DO NOT ruin them for others, and just stay true to yourself, but do not rain on anybody else's parade. Why be negative when you can be positive

I'll say whatever I please about the film. If you wanna go and be optimistic, that's fine. Not once in the post did I say that you guys were wrong for being optimistic. So shut up, because I'm stating my opinion, and if it "Ruins the film for you" then that's your fault for being ridiculously impressionable.

I respect and honour u for going by ur own opinion, however, You do realize that by calling it shit, you sound like a smart ass or a stupid bum right? I mean why do you wanna think that way? Does our World have not too much darkness and negativity in it to think about things like this? I am aware that I am senesitive and impressionable, however, for some people, movies like this may be ALL or close to all that they have left to remind them of childhood etc. But, for a more specific reason towards you, you know more negativity just brings more and more to it in your life, right?  

I'm gonna jump in right here. What I'm seeing doesn't look like it will end up going anywhere. I am not going to delete your guys' posts, but please try to be respectful. End this argument quickly and move on. Both of you have different opinions, and that is fine. You are free to share your opinions and even argue your points, but please do so in a non-inflammatory way.

Ya go ahead friend, its ok. I don't mean to be so inflammatory its just, as per a pun on our beloved series we discuess right here, I am merely pointing out how its good, despite having an opinion to be open minded. Its just a movie, mind you, but still respect those that do like it, it'll also make you feel better as a person. But go ahead, i don't care if you delete it

The most legit part of this is the effect they used for Thalia turning into a tree. (Unless it's in reverse, and it's actually her reverting from tree form.) I mean, that's firetrucking awesome looking. Hermes looks to be legit, but Nathan Fillion has that effect... I am disappointed that they pulled the 50 story robot card for S.O.M, since that was kind of Titans Curse thing. I mean it's not like that's what killed an important character in a major turning point or anything. That last seen with the slow motion Anaklusmos transformation... I am split down the middle. One part thinks it's awesome, the other thinks that it takes away a bit of the mystery of Riptide, seeing a detailed transformation like that. Makes it seem mechanical, not magical, and me no likey that part of it.

Reviews for Sea of Monsters have become very postive indeed. According to twitter reactions, within the first 30 minutes it easily sets up the story and makes up for the first film in a great way! Its a great action adventure and fans of the book will be VERY pleased! 

Any news on when it's actually coming to theaters yet? I'm hoping it really does make up for the first movie's mistakes...

That's good to hear. I love the books. I was very disappointed with the last movie.

here's a hint if you like the book dont watch the movies they are nothing alike the harry potter movies are a great exzsample

Aug 7 Spread the word 

I wonder why they didn't add the "and the Olympians" part in the title...

Have you even seen the trailer for Sea of Monsters? It looks pretty faithful to the book and the director seemed to have done a very good job of fixing the mistakes made in the first film for the second one.

I'm so excited it's getting good reviews I can't wait for the movie!! It's good to know that they haven't butchered it like they did before. I can't wait to see Tyson he's such a cutie
