As someone that read the books when they were releasing back in the day, though I cannot say this is a picture perfect page to screen adaptation it is doing exponentially better at seamlessly adapting than the films did, and I believe that is heavily due to the fact that the author is directly and heavily involved in the production of the series, thankfully! I’m not sure if it will be addressed in the show in the same way, but I believe the ADHD/dyslexia in the first book was tied into the fact that the Greek language was hard to read

I too had my introduction with the movie 🤢. I got three episodes into this and was enjoying it so much I went and found the audiobook (a little over 8hrs). There are changes, but without them I think the show would have been a mess of travel montages. They opt for more character drama instead which I feel works. Really beautiful show and solid acting all around. Look forward to sharing 😁

@liynne8 ай бұрын
i fully agree, the changes, albeit can annoy some people, its exactly the type that just potentially cant work in a live action adaptation, as you said, it would have been a trvel montage and with how short the book is, even less tension in the slower episodes and a case of "nothing much happens", even more so when the first book can be categorised as a lot of side quests.

I was REALLY disappointed when Brosnan didn’t return for the sequel. Wasn’t until a couple of years or so ago I found out he (supposedly) didn’t return because he felt the movie wasn’t faithful enough to the book (I think there’s also stories suggesting he just wasn’t asked back). Pretty sure they also had to recast the camp director aswell

The first couple of episodes caught my attention but to be honest, a few episodes later disappointed me in terms of quality. It started to feel “kids show” rushed but this weeks episode had the same quality as the first two so I’m feeling better about the series as a whole.

From an adaptation point with some of the changes, they lose the themes. Some of that characterization is just completely whack. And the stakes are pretty much non-existent compared to the books.

the adaptation is good, it's not a 1 to 1, and realistically when is an adaptation that? harry potter and lord of the rings movies have had massive chnages from the books. i'd say as a book reader the show keeps the characterization, heart, themes, teachings, and stories from the books, the locations and plot points, just various changes in between them for exposition, transition and drive of storylines. for me it's a good adaptation. also the kid actors just CRUSH this show, every single one, especially walker are acting their asses off.
@Drakoni238 ай бұрын
It's a great adaptation of the book. What stands out most to me is the cast, they are so well chosen and I like the acting a lot. To me it does have some pacing issues but I think that's because they constantly have to catch up anyone who doesn't know Greek Myhology. In the book you have time for that, in the show you want to trim down on exposition. And some of the dark scenes are waaay too dark. But it feels more like nitpicking. I really like the cinematography and creature designs. Overall job well done and enjoyable to watch ^_^

As someone who saw the movies like almost 10 years ago(and have read the books not so long ago) I did enjoy the first one although they weren't a good adaptations. And even if u look at it as something individual it still had some plot holes as well as they changed so many origin greek mythology aspects to fit into their narrative. The movie took some parts of the book and instead of elevating those they made it more flat and bland. Them aging up the characters was already ruining the whole general plot of the first five books and not only that the characters had no personality. If u look at it it really was a generic hollywood movie which is kinda sad to say because the books have so much layered meaning to things and its overall plot. The show on the other hand while adapting it ofc they made changes as well but they r good changes, they only elevate what the books had gave and made it smarter I feel like since the book was also written so long ago the author himself stated that he would like to fix some things. I think ur gonna enjoy it more and more as its gonna progress and see the world building when it comes to this adaptation. I wish there was more runtime for the episodes tho but given what they had i feel like they r doing an incredible job and the writing is sharp and smart.
