" @Marshal Victory said:" @Jotham said:Yeah, but most of the time the company selling the thing is trying to compare it to Harry Potter. For instance, in that Percy Jackson trailer they make a big deal about how the director also did two Potter movies (or something like that). "" @Marshal Victory said:Well sorta .But mostly sick of critics comparing any thng to Harry Potter. Neil Gaimen is much nicer than i would have been over Books of magic an What is borrowed in Harry Potter.Critics will Hate this since they cant compare it to harry potter.They will hate it cause its not spider man ,They will hate it because its not what they can pigon hole with out showing how they review things....Mostly by comparison than a honest look at what it is . "" Oh yeah critics are gona hate this movie something fierce.Least the ignorant holier-than-tho critics wount claim its a Harry Potter rip off . "Are you talking about that "Percy Jackson" movie? About the Kick-Ass trailer: looks great, can't wait. "
Of the trailers i have seen for percy jackson i didnt see from the director of.or least it wasnt something that stuck out to me.Their is a movie reviewer who gripes about this very thing of comparing movies an loosing the movie in the comparison.Now hes as bad for this as any one but his points on this was valid.
Today reviewers just crunch it down to the smallest posible review by comparison.Movie one meets movie two an doesnt equal movie three sort of reviews.At least Kick ass will not be compaired to Harry Potter.
Im doubting huge box office to.R rated movies rarely have huge box office returns.I will buy the dvd an or the directors cut when their avaliable tho.
