Hey.  Today let’s talk about the PJO movie.  Yes I know what all the fandom (including me) says.  “That’s nothing like the book!  It is horrible!  We should punch the directors in the face!” (And on and on)…  Now I agree with all of you.  The book to movie is horrific!  (And yes we should punch the directors and script writers in the face.)  But I have to say that if it weren’t for the movie then, I wouldn’t know about Percy Jackson.  I hate to admit, but I was introduced to PJO through the movie.  (Now some of you may be thinking, “then you can’t be the biggest fan”, but trust me I am.)

  Now I would like to talk about one more thing in this post today.  Just a show of hands… Who else was changed, for the better, by PJO? (*My hand goes up*)  If I ever got to sit and talk to Uncle Rick I would thank him over and over again for the books.  If it weren’t for him then I still wouldn’t be able to except the fact that I have dyslexia.  I know that I can’t be the only one who Mr. Riordan has made an impression on. 

   I would love it if y’all took the time to talk about these two things.  I have always wanted to hear what other fans think about the movie (Even though I know what they have to say.  I would love to hear it directly for y’all…). And I would also like to hear how or if PJO and Mr. Riordan has effected/helped you in any way (Even if Uncle Rick just inspired you to write).  Well that’s all for now.
