^Well kinda.... the love triangle has kind of taken dominance over the series, which I'm not hugely excited about...but I think what she's saying is that if Disney gets rights to it, most of the story will be romantic.

But I think that making a movie of this right now has a few flaws (please don't take offense):

1. '''It's not popular enough. This is the saddest and biggest issue--not enough people would recognize the movie and buy it, so if it did '''become a movie, they would have a low budget and the much-needed CGI and special effects would be cheap, which brings me to my next point....

2. There are too many things that can't really be expressed visually. Mind readings and telepathy take a huge role in the series, and that would be really hard to recreate visually, especially with a low budget.

3. The series isn't over yet.  Usually in movies (like HP for instance) they draw parallels and add foreshadowing based off of the later books, in the earlier movies. Especially since KOTLC isn't over, and won't be for at least 3 years, it wouldn't work to make a movie now.

4. '''The characters. '''If they were going to make a movie out of this, they would need good actors--especially for Keefe, Tam, and Sophie. The last thing we would want is for Sophie's movie counterpart to have blue eyes and brown hair *cough cough* PERCY JACKSON *cough cough*. WHAT IF KEEFE WASN'T PORTRAYED RIGHT? What if Keefe wasn't likeable in the series, and Tam wasn't snarky, and Linh wasn't a cinnamon roll? WHAT IF SOPHIE WASN'T OBLIVIOUS ROMANTICALLY IN THE SERIES? Too many things could go wrong, and the last thing KOTLC needs is a PJO-class movie fail.

Basically, if they were able to make an accurate, well-funded, interesting movie, I'd be sold. But right now, the possibility for that is looking pretty bleak.
