#translating stuff from book to screen wont always work perfectly

[anaklusmosriptide]

Seeing the crit of the pjo show makes me a little glad that I haven't watched it but I do know eventually I want to give it a chance. What mainly worries me is the pacing tbh and some of the important details that Rick claimed "doesn't matter" like them missing the summer solstice deadline. No hate AT ALL to the actors just everything on the technical side is what's causing me and other people to side eye the series

#pjo show crit #love and light to the actors theyre just doing the best they can with the questionable changes from book to script rick and others made #i get theres never going to be a 100% true to the book adaptation #translating stuff from book to screen wont always work perfectly #say what you want about the movies but at least they got silly with it and i respect them for that #< bringing this tag back cause i heard the kids in this series hardly get to be sillay :( #theyre 12 on a road trip let them have fun on this quest #also hate how they figure shit out immediately #like once again they're 12. be as smart as you want you dont always pick up shit immediately at 12 #also does the mist even exist in the show??? #cause the mist is pretty important 🤨 #ocean rambles
