[Hannibal Smith]

I myself am torn for wanna see Wolfman but my friend wants to See this so i'll likely see PJ first and maybe see Wolfman next week or the week after.

That sounds like a good bet. Nothing is coming out until March with Alice in Wonderland(and that may not even be good).

I have two feelings about this? One, it's going to flop big. Two, it's going to make a considerable amount of money. It could go either way.

Whenever you flip a coin with somebody you always say, "heads I win, tails you lose", don't you?

There is only 3 films i wanna see before iron man 2 and thats Kick Ass. Season Of The Witch and Alice In Wonderland. After then Wolfman and PJ anyways.

The reviews I have read so far are very positive!
Here's a detailed one.

The CGI used to create these snakes is absolutely fantastic with the multitude of snakes attached to her having their own personality yet still being in touch with and linked to Medusa’s thoughts and persona. Massive credit to the guys who created the special effects for this movie because they are simply brilliant.

And from another review:

Uma Thurman as Medusa, the gorgon with a coiffure of writhing snakes and stone-inducing hypnotic gaze is one of the highlights of this bewitching fantasy that juxtaposes Greek Mythology with contemporary American culture.

After this medicore posters of Uma's Medusa, I am very happy that she turns out to be very cool

mediocre?... they were terrible!... photoshopped by a 5th grader

I liked the Clip with the guy who Plays Hades.

As do I, this is still my favourite clip so far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlny40OnbYs

during Star Wars time PG was a little different.
And The Incredibles was rare...a PG film that's actually geared more towards adults than kids.

But for this one...the core characters are all "kids". which makes a big difference to me.

But when the original STAR WARS films were rereleased several years ago, and the first 2 prequel movies were released, they all were still rated PG. Also, the 2nd FANTASTIC FOUR 2,ERAGON,and the DRAGONBALL movie were all rated PG.

Luke looks like one of the Weasley's

 

[Hannibal Smith]

Well if this is half as good as HP 1 or 2 id be more then entertained seeing it.

 

[Heretic]

Im thoroughly entertained by watching the female lead's Yellow Pages commercial...so I'm sure I'll like it well enough. The closer it gets to release, the more I think it'll be a Netflix for me though.

 

[Fanticon]

my gf is taking her younger brother to see this on Friday...I'm gonna go with them because I actually think it looks good and I loved Chris C's HP adaptations...but more importantly the full Last Airbender trailer is going to be attached so thats definitely a plus for me. But PJ still looks pretty good regardless.

 

[CrypticOne]

Reading the book right now. Hopefully I'm done by Friday. Pretty good.

garrr...I keep debating this movie. I won't want to waste free movie tickets on something that's going to end up being so kid friendly that it alienates adults.

I saw Aliens in the Attic because I figured it'd be adult friendly...you know, something like Batteries Not Included. But it turned out to be nothing more than a super dumbed down kid film.

That's the only thing holding me back...can't decide! ARGH!

 

[Hannibal Smith]

Its not hard to figure out what this film is aimed at. Its the Harry Potter teen audience but thank god not the Twilighters. I expect some fun not an adult intended film. There Wolfman for adults so will balance myself out that day with the kid in me and the adult cravings.

 

[GhostPoet]

As long as they are not all "We have to save the ADULTS!" then I'm totally cool with it. :P

 

[Hannibal Smith]

From what i gather its to stop a war i believe. I saw one cool clip with the Minotaur scene on yahoo movies.

 

[Tony Stark]

I'm looking forward to this one. The only potential problem I see is the movie, from what I've seen in the clips and trailers, takes alot of liberties with the book.

There does look to be some great scenes though, like the Hades one as some of you mentioned.

 

[Xerxész]

From what i gather its to stop a war i believe. I saw one cool clip with the Minotaur scene on yahoo movies.

What? Is the Minotaur in this Percy Jackson film?

 

[Orb]

What? Is the Minotaur in this Percy Jackson film?

Yes it is.

In case of being Kid friendly, yes this supposed to be enjoyed by both adults and kids. But that may soon change when it reaches the third book, thats when things get more serious.
