MODERATORS
Because nobody will fund a huge production that's based on something that didn't do well. Are you nuts? Are you going to go up to people and ask for 50 million dollars or whatever and say we're going to take this thing sucked that nobody liked and we're going to redo it.
I mean, they've made how many Percy Jackson movies? Pretty sure no one likes any of them.
