Movies are strange things...
Awesome title = sucky movie
Sucky title = awesome movie
Somewhere, a movie executive needs to be turned over and spanked.
Just caught Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. If that isn't an awkard title, I don't know what is. Sort of like Shark Boy & Lava Girl, which I didn't see, thank goodness.
But in this case, great movie! The kids weren't really kiddy, the villians were a hoot, Hades the god of the underworld looked like a rocker, and the movie didn't take itself all THAT seriously. Great storyline, enjoyable characters, decent pace, and boy.... centuars never looked sexier.... Makes me want to go read up on Greek mythology again. lol Why? Because next up is Clash of the Titans in March.
Now where are my books at? :)

Had the same thought when I saw Percy i.e. need to get Greek mythology books from library. Must catch Clash of Titans next!!!
Opps.
Sorry Mags, I didn't realise you'd posted a rare comment!
But Oh. My. God.
Clash of the Titans is a MUST SEE!
