my sister and i are talking about how different the pjo series and the one piece adaptation felt in terms of being familiar with the source material, and because pjo was a middle school grade book, i feel like if they waited just a few more years, they could’ve had a crew of people who actually grew up with the books :(

#like you know what i mean?#im 23 and i just entired the workforce but i read pjo in 4th grade and as someone who wants to work in film #i just feel like they really missed out on a crew of fans who are passionate to make this the best thing ever #rather than rick and disney getting big shots who—im not doubting they did their research—but just #they dont have the nostalgia of enjoying the books #kinda like the harry potter franchise too bc as it got bigger and EVERYONE read the books #the film crew were passionate about making it as close to the source material as possible #which is what you can say about the one piece crew #bc if you watch the behind the scenes; most of the crew loves one piece #pjo crit #it’s such a missed opportunity:(
