Percy Jackson Sea Of Monsters 2
There are five books in the Percy Jackson series, so far. The next installment is ??€Ë?The Sea Of Monsters??€â„? which sees Percy, Annabeth, and his half-brother Tyson the cyclopes sailing across a dangerous ocean to save the kidnapped Grover and retrieve the Golden Fleece (the only thing that can stop Camp Half-Blood being made vulnerable to an attack by the Titans). At the London press conference last week director Chris Columbus said ??€?“If we are successful enough, I??€â„?d love to make another film almost immediately with these guys. We had a wonderful time. I love the enthusiasm and lack of cynicism. I want to go back to work quickly.??€Â? And despite recent Spider-Man casting rumours, it doesn??€â„?t sound like star Logan Lerman is going anywhere either. ??€?“I??€â„?m invested into the whole series. I??€â„?m crazy about the story and crazy about the character, I??€â„?d love to do all the films.??€Â? The reaction to the first film has been mixed. Critics gave it a 49% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Casual members of the public seemed to half enjoy it. But many fans are angry. According to the feedback on this site and elsewhere, the book wasn??€â„?t just compressed (ala Harry Potter), it was ??€?“butchered??€Â?, its ??€?“heart taken out??€Â? with major plot re-routing, some characters altered beyond recognition, other key ones dropped entirely, etc. How this will affect repeat viewings and word of mouth we will have to see. Lightning Thief has made $31 million on its opening weekend in the US. Not terrible, but not spectacular either. Internationally it opened with $28 million, which is underwhelming. It cost around $95 million. As of today, it needs to hold on well domestically and internationally to become a hit. If it does, there will be more.
