Not sure about this, I've read some worrying things about the storyline changes and such, but the teaser trailer looks very cool.

What have you heard? I've heard nothing but then you always know before me! This looks cool and may help with the process of waiting for Harry.

Well, for one thing it's Chris Columbus directing but that was a small worry at first. I did like a lot of the casting (unknowns for our main characters and big names for the gods and such), but then I read that they were casting Persephone - who doesn't show up in the first book at all - and the article referred to her as a "human that Hades had kidnapped" and it inferred that would be part of the plotline of the movie.

Also, Columbus confirmed that he's changing some things around - the incident in my icon, for instance, won't be happening. Instead they're going to have a run-in with a hydra. So, I have reservations but I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt at this point because that trailer looks very cool. :)

Don't you just hate it when they change a perfectly good story for no reason? I hope this movie is good. I like the series!
