the marketing for percy jackson season 2 is INSANE. i feel like i havent seen disney market something this much in so long, am i the only one?
we got water billboards, entire phineas and ferb animated shorts, trailers before wicked for good, all kinds of influencers invited to the premiere etc etc. disney definitely looked at their numbers and are treating it like their only child that is keeping them afloat right now.
i have like zero idea how good s2 will be, but at this point there is no doubt in my mind we will get seasons 4 and 5 greenlit and that the show will only get bigger as it goes on. so i feel like i have a lot of reasons to hold out hope 🤞
when i started project hail mary i expected there to be so much language because i know the martian is like that - only for it to be what seems like an intentional joke that ryland says stuff like “gosh darn” and “dang it”.
i like to think andy weir got a comment about not being able to write a good story without language and decided to clap back with a hell of a wholesome good book.
never say never but all this talk of the “next” hunger games book seems very futile to me.
suzanne made it clear she never planned to write tbosas and even said that she would never write haymitch’s games. she felt inspired and called up francis lawrence asking if her book would make a good sotr movie. she’s an author who actually takes time to write her books and write when she has something to say. she also keeps her life very very private which i very much respect.
she’ll probably end up releasing another thg book or two before she dies to be honest, but i doubt one’s even written or planned right now. not to be that person because i enjoy the books as well, but i doubt she’d like us betting on who the next book will be about or waiting expectantly for it to be announced, seeing as that seems fairly counterintuitive to her message. especially seeing as she has, you know, made it clear we should expect nothing from her. thats the way art is made - with care and intention.
i saw a youtube comment today that changed the way i see everlark. it said something about katniss falling in love with peeta in catching fire, and not before.
katniss was young and not thinking about romance in the first games (and onward really, which is true). to her, her and peeta was an act in the first games, ofc, which is much more evident in the books bc its told from first person pov. to peeta, it was sort of real even when he tried to convince himself it wasn’t. she always loved gale in a special way and probably would have ended up marrying him wnd starting a small simple life in 12, but after she volunteers for prim, she is different person and they are no longer on the same wavelength. gale doesn’t understand her anymore, which is clear when he constantly grills her about the act with peeta.
but she falls in love with peeta in catching fire once she realizes how much he understands her and how much she needs him. she’s sleeping in the same bed as him, feeling the need to protect him from the games because they’ve been through a lot together and she has a very selfless attitude. but we all know that moment in the arena when finnick has just saved peeta and has that very interesting look on his face - he’s just realized how much it has evolved to be real too, when previously he taunted katniss for how fake the romance seemed.
i just never considered that katniss didn’t fall in love with peeta until catching fire (specifically after from the favorite colors conversation onward) - and now it makes a lot of things clear. those two kisses (after peeta is resuscitated and the iconic on the beach) are 100% real to both of them. i was always confused about whether the beach one was but the beauty of the scene reflects the deep beauty of the moment.
how ironic that snow commands her to make him believe the act is real - and it ends up actually becoming real from then on. thats the only W I will EVER give snow is that he kinda made everlark happen (by way of trauma bonding through the trauma he gives them, though)
just another reason to love catching fire - the best book/movie ever really.
the youtube comment in question that prompted this deep inner reflection on everlark so thanks to anja3321

i really respect that we as a society are all “team edward or team jacob” “team jeremiah or team conrad” but have collectively decided there is no “team peeta or team gale.” there is just peeta. it was always peeta.
mustang is an annabeth chase variant. i will not be elaborating further.

Met Marissa Meyer today and found out a few things
TLC adaptation is gonna be a trilogy, she has a zoom call after book tour and she’s fairly certain the next step is casting
(small but still said) she said that YES. Maggie is Evie (take that fan wiki)
nova was the hardest character for her to write of all time. Apparently MM had to do a crap ton of research on people/ groups with similar ideals to be able to write her (and did an AMAZING job :D)
She has a few books planned before the sequel series (all of which take place in the same universe as the house safir and gilded)*
maggie and max are confirmed love interests (don’t worry @mikodrawnnarratives, fanon will still be there)
And last, but certainly not least, the renegades sequel is planed to be a duel pov with Maggie and max* (sadly no *planned* chapters from nova or Adrian, but they will def be there)
*working on posting a video for her saying these two things
Howwww are the lunar chronicles movies gonna be a trilogy??
I’m so intrigued as to how that’ll happen since there’s, yk, FOUR BOOKS. I guess I can see them intertwining Cinder and Scarlet together since those plotlines are fairly simple and contained compared to the others.
I’m just so so intrigued as to how these movies will turn out seeing as the fandom is kinda dead. Will it be “accurate” or kinda a new take? Will it bring in a wave of new fans? What does TLC in animation even look like? How will it be received in this day and age? Food for thought

I agree with you in that I dont want them to go overboard with percabeth too soon. Not only cause I really like slowburns and they need to be on the backburner for a while to be great. But also because their relationship in the books was kind of a suprise. And until like the middle of tlo it was a real possibility percy would end up with Rachel instead and I liked that. It makes it seem more real and fun. But if they keep all of the percabeth from the books and add in new stuff its gonna be so obvious.
For sure, I love the tv show but I do admit I am worried about Percabeth.
The weird thing about the books is that when you look at some of the iconic “percabeth moments” out of context it makes it seem so obvious! (the cheek kiss, the middle school dance in ttc, annabeth’s jealousy of rachel) But we’ve forgotten that when you read the books it FEELS so much like a surprise because all of that along the way just felt like your average run of the mill middle school tween awkwardness with girls - not foreshadowing that annabeth was gonna be his love interest. It’s so masterfully subtle somehow.
Percy wasn’t worrying about any kind of romance for a long time and neither were the readers (everyone’s in middle school for pete’s sake we thought romance was icky) but Rick made the slow burn subtle enough to pay off at the end of the series and its so amazingly PERFECT. THAT is why percabeth is so loved guys!!
I fear that the tv show won’t understand that and it will feel heavy-handed because they’re worried viewers will click off if there’s no romance until tje fourth season. I understand to an extent how tv show writers have to put other things into consideration but I think it’s so much more worth it for the payoff of the final product.

Percabeth is not as great as it is just because its a slow burn (which the tv show is by no means eradicating) - it’s special because it’s subtle and shines in the background of the overall story.
But I guess we’ll have to wait and see!!
