I agree. But how do you know that they're not at least as popular as the others? Wait. I think I have an answer. The Percy Jackson movies sucked. But the Hunger Games and the Harry Potter movies have followed the books as best as they could, and that's what makes them more popular is good movies too. Make the Percy Jackson movies follow the books as close as possible, and maybe they will be at least, if not more, popular than the Hunger Games and Harry Potter. I mean, that's how you can get more interest in books, right? You make it a movie, you liked the movie, and you want to read the book too.
