Okay, one of my FB friends posted this movie trailer and after watching I felt moms everywhere needed to see it. I don't know about you, but I'm going to be taking some 'me' time to watch this movie. From what I saw in this little clip . . . it summed up what my blog is all about. Enjoy!
Yesterday I finally watched, Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief for the first time with my kids. I really liked the movie and found it very entertaining; however, I was disappointed many things were different from the book. Maybe it’s just me, but it seems more and more books are being made into movies. Which is a good thing, but why are so many of these movies changing, adding to, and cutting out important scenes from the book?
I did not seem to be this way years ago. At least not from what I can remember after watching Interview with a Vampire, The Stand, and so many others. Yes, some things had to be cut out so the movie would not be too long, but the moviemaker never added scenes the author did not have or change the plot line. Honestly, the last movie made from a book that stuck pretty close to what was in the book are the first two Harry Potter movies, the others had some changes and add-ins, but nothing like some of the current movies such as: Spiderwic
LOL. Thanks for sharing the movie trailer. Looks like it is going to be a good one!
