I can’t WAIT for Nico! Very excited for him, ever since I joined the PJO community I just immediately had Nico as my favorite and it still hasn’t changed since. I’m also excited for the sneaky stuff for Nico, Bianca, and other characters possibly on here just like season 1 showed! 👀
I have one requirement about Thalia’s casting. She and Jason’s future actor must have the same eyes. It is the one visual queue that they are related. It is the PJO version of “your mother’s eyes.” It is how Thalia recognizes him. I don’t care about what that color is, just matching eyes.
Only 5 more years till we get a confirmation for a Heroes of Olympus series. Can't wait! Seasons 2-5 of PJO are gonna be great too, but i'll require the elevated trauma of the next book series later.
I Just Realised Something And I Have To Say It: If The Movies Didn’t Exist And If Rick Wasn’t Involved This Show Wouldn’t Nearly Be As High Regarded As It Is
To be honest the show has a lot of flaws and changes about as much as the movies did. Like you said, if Rick wasn't involved, people would say it was as bad as the movies
@@irotr53no i disagree. while it did have some changes, it was much better than the movie and much more faithful to the books. Also, the movie the lightning thief on its own without the book is a horrible movie. it’s too fast paced and it makes no sense. with the book, it’s even worse. but the show, if it existed without the books it’s still on its own a really good show and super entertaining especially to people who HAVENT read the books. Sure, if you did, you’ll notice some changes, but they’re absolutely not as bad as the movie
I loved season 1 but from this information, I really think the people working on the show, specifically Rick Riordan, have seen some of people’s criticisms of the first season and I think this season is gonna be better! Fingers crossed for this new executive producer because episode eight WAS really good!
I think they would skip that as the cast for both characters would not be seen again until HOO. With each season taking almost 2 years to produce, they will be much older to take roles. At best, the show would just do what they did with Nico and Bianca by mentioning their name only.
I liked the show and I love the books but the portrayal of Hades and the pacing just weren't good. Hope they will learn from their mistakes bc if I have to imagine Nico being the son of the show Hades is just- not good
Just clicked on the video, I'm curious as to whom they're going to cast as Tyson. Edit: I realised you are too, so I'm looking forward to the next update video that you post especially since I didn't realise there was some updates from Rick, I've been a bit out of touch. 😂 Another edit: I felt the exact same hysteria and spiralling from the books update like you did and I am not ashamed to admit it.
Me ok so now I’m waiting for Wednesday season two Stranger Things season five and Percy Jackson season two also I haven’t heard anything about the hp series that’s going on HBO but I know that one is gonna take forever
In my opinion they should just make an animated series. That way they could easily make the characters look more accurate, they could make the powers and monsters look sick. Overall I just think that we need a series that should be almost 1 to 1 to the books and make it look accurate. Alongside hopefully no controversies, no dumb race swapping, no changing the plot or character personalities. Just a 1to1
When I heard of Lance Reddic's death, I got Burning maze flashbacks. And then I saw in this interview that the crew couldn't ever process it at first, lets just say that didn't help unseeing the paralells.
Well I don't consider season 1 as a faithful adaptation of the book. Faithful means one to one page to screen and it wasn't. The season wasn't bad but it was a mediocre 5/10 in my book. I hope they get better with season 2, waiting for the Hydra, Polypemus and my man Tyson. I am glad we will get more Clarisse, despite not being buff Dior is successful in passing the character to me in maybe 2 minutes of screen time. I hope they will do justice to my favorite character from the book in the future- Annabeth Chase. The actors are great the direction they are getting is👎
Well I will admit that it isn’t completely accurate but no adaptation really is. It’s hard to take a book like Percy Jackson and make it a show or movie (the movie said a lot about that). Like Grover seems a near impossible person to make into a living thing with emotions so I didn’t hate on him much for the book or the movie. However, there is definitely a wrong way to make Annabeth (as seen in the movies) I think they did really well on Annabeth for this season. She had a couple moments where I was a little iffy but overall I loved her character
@@ZoeNightshade_HunterOfArtemis I understand of course that making perfectly accurate it's hard. However the books are so good, which is why I was hoping for an equal show in quality/better. In terms of the trio all together, they are not together enough on screen (keep splitting up) and the dynamic they have in interviews is far better than their dynamic on set. When it comes to Annabeth, she doesn't say how much she loves architecture (or maybe I missed that). She is not sassy/bossy enough. She is also able to fight Luke which she never does in the books. The movies were a crime against any character.
@@eranshachar9954 I do agree that they were split up a lot and the cast in interviews is so much fun to watch!! The architecture thing wasn’t huge in the first book but it was there and wasn’t rlly talked about in the show. I thought she was pretty sassy but that could just be me 🤷♀️. And I think she could probably fight Luke since she’s the daughter of the goddess of strategical war 🤷♀️🤷♀️ Yes those movies were such a crime 😂😂 those were federal offenses
@@berengustav7714 This is a show. Granted they are supposed to have more time to be accurate. Sure I know 100 % accuracy can never be, but so far season 1 for me was mediocre and not so much better than the movies (excluding few good moments).
@@Unclaimeddemigod Omg I luv ur videos! Ur always so honest and respectful and someone who's vids I look forward to watching to. Big fan! And yes, I literally abused my eyes looking for them in season 1. I hope I get some casting news regarding them.
@Unclaimed demigod It's pronuced T-H-A-L-I-A not T-A-L-I-A according to Rick Riordan, the author of the PJO book series. Stop pronouncing it the wrong way from the PJO DOA Movies.
