A million change and you hope that almost all of them are invisible . These are very dissimilar mediums , and I think they tell stories differently . And so I think you have to embrace the idea that everything in the Holy Writ is going to have to find a unlike form to inhabit so as to be something I ’d require to watch on screen . " " So sometimes it ’s sequencing , it ’s causation , it ’s the way set piece diddle out is a little different , but it made it work well . Some of it is bigger , some of them , honestly , are things that I think Rick [ Riordan ] was frantic about capture a second go at it . He wrote that volume 20 some odd years ago , and you do n’t get a second muster … And I opine it was exciting and fun for him to sit down in conversation about , ' Alright , let ’s pull the lid off this thing again . ' "
