It also tends to be true that the scenes from the books that are my absolute favorite are missing from the movies.Jonathon Arntsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17366218140886892757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888463531582700840.post-37174804098671492862010-02-15T13:32:59.417-08:002010-02-15T13:32:59.417-08:00@Trina: Yeah, not surprised. :) And way to use our...@Trina: Yeah, not surprised. :) And way to use our new nickname. :)<br /><br />@Jon: So I'm a lot like my sister (i.e., easily satisfied when it comes to movies). We'll have to see. I'll definitely post my thoughts, once I've seen the movie.

It was quite different from the book and they did take several liberties with the story. But overall, I thoroughly enjoyed it. :) Having said that, it's not amazing by any means and I'm pretty sure a lot of people will find it lame or disappointing so don't think since I love it that you or anyone else will. You above all people know that I generally like all movies I watch. And, because I have such a love for Percy and L-squared, I didn't nitpick as other people will. :)Trinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17471097156463892827noreply@blogger.com
