Sorry this video is so late. First there was an unforeseen delay, then I was sick for 2 weeks, then when I finally got it uploaded, it was copyright claimed and blocked. But at long last, it's finally public! Hope you guys like it. Also, are there any other mythology movies or shows you'd like me to review?
Can you review gods of Egypt
I love ur channel
And I believe the tv series will redeem the movie franchise
find a good reason the third Percy Jackson movie never came out
Omg yes. I love your take on mythology, specifically the hilarious way you express it. If you taught mythology like this to students, they'd ace any test or assignment.
Chiron: "children of big three are rare"
Zeus: are you sure about that?
I know i almost died when i first saw that in the movie
so many problems in greek mythology would be solved if Zeus didn't want to have have sex with everything that moves
It wouldn’t be surprised if half of New York were Zeus’ children
Rock with a crack in it
Zeus: 😎 i don't believe we've met
I forgot i made this comment haha
Greek myth summarized: Zeus couldn't keep it in his toga.
"Children of the big 3 are rare"
so did Zues just burn all the paternity tests in this universe?
My question is that why did the write make Percy piesdon's son thou? Seeing get has all the attributes of percus
@@maymay5600 i had a stroke reading that
@@BobBob-pj3qo hush, I was in a moment
As rare as people who are related to Genghis Khan!
@@maymay5600 idk man but I'd much rather read a book about some kid who is related to Poseidon then another young hero with attention problems that is also coincidentally Zeus' son.
“What the heck has Poseidon been doing for 5 days?!”
Poseidon:Finally I finished Breaking Bad, I guess I’ll go check on Percy now
Then after checking up on Percy he proceeded to watch season 2 and season 3 in the second movie
@@jojogacha974no he was watching Better Call Saul by then
Nah he was binging One Peice, still is. He hasn't finished it yet.
@@TheLeviathanYTI fully imagine him sitting on the edge of his seat hoping big mom drowns lmao
Nah he was binging on all off them then binges the entire Ninjago series
Once in school we had to write a report on this book and one kid got lazy, just watched this movie, and wrote is report in that. He failed so hard, it was hilarious.
Honestly thats just a smart move from the teacher lol
Same shit happened to me except I had watched the movie years before, I got a passin grade though
That’s what he gets
The last actual fantasy book I read in school was in 5th grade, and it was the Narnia books. I wish I was able to read anything fantasy again, since that is my favorite genre.
I did the same with The Outsiders in middle school XD I couldn't be bothered with the book so did my best to just watch and remember the movie XD
In my high school class, we had the complete opposite XD It was an English class and had to be the start of the year because it was very early on; I'm talking first weeks of September early. We were doing a whole like- week or two on Greek mythology. Making posters of certain Gods/Goddesses, reading excerpts from the myths and stories, so on; and the last day(s) of it, we were watching this movie. Now, I haven't read the books prior to seeing the movie so I absolutely do not mind this movie and it's a guilty pleasure of mine (Can't stand the second one). But we were given a 100-or-so-question packet to answer along with watching the movie. Teachers wanted to make sure students were paying attention because it wasn't a free period. I HAVE this movie on DVD and had seen it *so* many times before watching it in this class... I had the packet done within the first damn opening credits. I got to kick back and just *enjoy* a movie in class XD
“My mother is the goddess of wisdom and battle strategy you know what that means I always win” Yeah sure taking off your helmet during the battle is an excellent battle strategy
To paraphrase The Act Man, she needs to establish herself as a *STRONG FEMALE PROTAGONIST*
I cringe at almost ever line she says. She was so cool yet sweet in the books, what happened...
@@genericweeb3816 Disney and money unless this wasn’t made by Disney in which case it was just money
Agree that means she knows how to fight, you’re not the daughter of Nike, who is the Goddess of Victory. Now if she was daughter of the goddess of victory then that would make much more sense, but she just the daughter of Athena
Yeah that always makes me laugh
Persephone: "why? Because he's cruel and abusive!"
Are we talking about Hades or Zeus?
Probably Zeus
Yeah Zeus completely
@Josh Bennett Firdaus the movie logic is Soo bad
@Josh Bennett Firdaus Yeahhhhh no.
@Josh Bennett Firdaus u should really read the books. I just finished reading the battle of the labyrinth
Chris Columbus was a dangerous choice as director for this, because he was actually for aging up the Harry Potter characters as well. When they were first making that movie, he wanted them to all be 16 so they would be 'easier to direct'. It was only when JKR and the studio people put their foot down, and rightly so, that they gave up on that and just dealt with the children's acting by editing the heck out of the films to get what good bits of acting he could. Clearly he got his way with Percy Jackson, and it suffered so heavily for it.
@@katieburnswater7251 Yeah, the actor they picked for Percy, though not really suitable in looks, definitely has a lot of good acting skills.
@@robertgronewold3326what are you talking about? The actor they chose for Percy is very conveniently attractive. Dirty blond, nice smile, blah blah blah
@@bluejay9638 What has that got to do with the age of the actors?
@@robertgronewold3326 nothing, I'm talking about how you tried to claim looks didn't play a role when they definitely did in everyone's casting
@@bluejay9638 Riordan is one of the main producers and writers for the show. He was present during the casting process and picked young actors/actresses that best represented the personalities of his characters.
Riordan was quick to defend the upcoming show's diverse casting. He wanted to make sure that he was looking at his story with a fresh set of eyes with the emphasis of wanting it to speak to everyone. Not just a select group of people.
So the tv show would be inevitably >>>the films
19:00 I mean in the books Sally also knew about the camp (I'm 90% sure), she just didn't want to let go of Percy just yet because he was her kid, so she took other measures. Which makes sense because at the point he finds out about monsters he's 12. Makes less sense to keep it from him if he's fucking 17
she did know about it. that's where she was driving to
Someone at the camp warned her about keeping Percy so close to her.
@@object-official
I thought they were going to Santa Monica- oh wait grover picks them up from there, so she DID know
I will say this, one of the few best things in the movies was the comedy, the sequel had Dionysus stating to Zeus, "The christians have a god who can do the opposite (turn water into wine) now that's a god"
I think that’s about the only good part. The only reason it’s good is because it’s something I could see him saying.
Mr. D said that to Chiron.
Nah Jesus is so boring. I’d rather worship a pantheon of 12 super-horny super beings over a hippie carpenter.
@@pastlife960 *pulls a whip out and chases shop keepers out a temple*
Literally the only positive thing I remember about the movie.
Luke’s betrayal in the book: Tricks Percy into coming into the woods with him, expresses disillusionment with Camp Half-Blood and the gods themselves, puts a scorpion on Percy, monologues pretty realistically about how he’s been let down time after time, then disappears like a badass and leaves Percy to die.
Luke’s betrayal in the movie: HAHA TWAS ME ALL ALONG *shoots lightning and makes big kaboom*
The book scene also came with such a badass line: "There's a new Golden Age coming. It's too bad you won't be here to see it, Percy." THEY DIDNT EVENT MENTION THAT IN THE MOVIE
I remember the first time I read that chapter when I was 12, I was absolutely shocked and felt personally betrayed. The books are great, even if they're hella inaccurate to the original myths
@@Megalomaniac_Trans_Lesbian the books aren't even that inaccurate, asides from giving demigods their parent's powers.
@@lorenzoromito7735 Uhhh, Poseidon being a good father and a good person all around ? Aphrodite being mild-mannered ? Artemis being nice and friendly ? The Olympians in general being either good people or morally neutralc? None of these things are even close to mythologically accurate. The gods of Olympus were either neutral but quick to curse or kill you for something silly (that'd be Dyonisus, Artemis, and even Athena who is not without blame), or downright full on evil by today's standards (Zeus, Poseidon, Apollo...). Basically, excluding a few titans such as Prometheus, Hades was the only divine being who was genuinely kind-hearted and helpful to mortals, as even his wife Persephone was more scary and violent than him Cx
@@Megalomaniac_Trans_Lesbian if the gods were good people I'm pretty sure the whole books' premise would be missing. The demigods like Luke had every reason in the world to be angry at them, so much that Percy had to make the gods swear on the Styx before expressing his wish, that basically was "yo, people you should improve your behaviour"
43:41 If it makes you feel better, Grover is actually 28 in the first book. It's explained as satyrs age slower than humans, so he still looks like a kid.
However, it’s exactly that, they age slower, like, half as fast. That not only do they physically age slower, but *mentally* as well. I’m fairly certain that it was stated that even though in those human years he was in his late 20’s or so, he was mentally, emotionally, and essentially about the same age as Percy, if not a couple years older, depending on how old he is.
28? I thought they said he was 50? Whatever, we know they didn't care anyways
@toxicdemon1315 Coach Hedge in The Heros of Olympus is in his late 40's early 50's. In Satyr he's 106
One thing i noticed, when persephone says "I've never had a satyr" that means that she sleeps around on hades but im 95% sure shes always been faithful even after hades slept with minthe
Yes she's not really a cheater, except one time. Just one affair
@@Emisop Adonis?! He’s a big fat jerk!
@@Emisopare we talking about zeus or am I forgetting someone else
It's even dumber given in the final book Persephone doesn't like Nico because he's a consultant reminder that Hades cheated on HER.
Except for maybe Adonis. A big MAAAAAAAYBE.
"does anybody realize that there are ways to make a female character really compelling without just ... she can kick everybody's butt?" THANK YOU for pointing this out
Its only worse if they do it yo a side character female character cuz most of the time they just relegate them to back up fighter and do to there own flawed power scaling it never comes up again as in the ladder of power scaling sych a character cant out shadow the MC, BBG, most other side characters and mentors, however they do get to beat grunts and bullies and problematic ass holes.... However so does the MC mentor side character's and BBG which then lowers them to not being that strong in actuality and just makes there scene of beating uo guys useless as do to power scaling so does everyone else
And Annabelle was that in the books she was very compelling and she even was a bit butt-kicky one of the things I really hated is they had her using a sword which she specifically doesn't ever use a sword it's a big character point and they completely removed her obsession with architecture.
Yet movies still haven't learned that lesson, and if you don't cheer for that all-powerful zero real struggle female character, you're sexist, because she's showing girl power ..... by having everything handed to her and removing any real struggles they may have.
@@alexwolfeboy showing girls they achieve anything!…
..so long as they are born naturally beautiful and athletic and also insanely smart and maybe have superpowers or something.
..giRLboSs!!?
@@KimKim-mt2bb and that’s why no one liked your comment
I’m convinced that the movie writers looked at the book, complained that there were no pictures, and then decided to do whatever they want. Also looking forwarded how you tear apart the second dumpster fire that is Sea of Monsters.
Exist a comic book about Percy Jackson if they didn't liked a book without pictures they could read that book but they thought "Who is Rick Riordan? My intelect surpasses him!"
Sea of Monsters was even worse because Grover never got kidnapped.
I literally quit that movie after like 10 min. Just alone for how they butchered poor Tyson.

Hades being a disgruntled, overworked manager of the underworld with "inlaw" problems instead of the devil was one of my favorite parts... but hey, we couldn't even have a wise Wise Girl
And it's also specifically said that Persephone is extremely loyal to Hades in the book series she does actually enjoy her time and hell that in Hades with him and the reason the thing that gets him out of the underworld is a pearl specifically a pearl is because it was given to him by his father Poseidon.

Oop
He went on a rant about how Sally could have sent him to camp since she apparently knew about it at 19:13 , but Sally actually knew about it in the books too. I don’t have the text in front of me, but I’m pretty sure she said something about not wanting to send him to camp because she was afraid they’d keep him year round and she wanted to keep him with her.
Indeed so; She loved Percy fiercely and even kept the name Jackson out of spite towards Gabe. She even managed to kill a Laistrygonian and assured Percy she'd be fine and it was up to him to stop Kronos.
Which makes sense in the books since anyone would be protective of their 12 year old child. A mother is still protective of a 17 year old but not in the sane ways. Not like in the movie
Yeah, they warned her that it was dangerous.
Having recently listened to the Lighting Thief musical it's remarkable how much more loyal to book it is to the book despite having a similar runtime. It's not a one to one adaptation by any means, it's very condensed. But it understands that for all the talk of gods and monsters, it's a story about kids with a lot of real life issues exploring the drawbacks and benefits of them in a fantastical setting. You get cool powers because your parent is a god, but because of that your parent can't be a parent because they're off busy controlling the weather, like a real life parent busy with their job. This movie keeps the power fantasy without adding the nuances that make it relatable.
Fun fact: Even though Peter of the movie didn’t give a crap, Percy actually says in the first book that Chiron was the only teacher whose class he payed attention to because he liked Chiron’s way of teaching.
_“You wouldn’t think he’d be cool, but he told stories and jokes and let us play games in class. He also had this awesome collection of Roman armour and weapons, so he was the only teacher whose class didn’t put me to sleep.”_
bc chiron was used to teaching the adhd fueled demigod teenagers in camp half blood lol
Gee it’s as if the writers only read the Wikipedia synopsis and not the book
I can't blame him for liking him.
Which is ironic since he doesn’t seem impressed in the film.
The minute I saw percy with his freaking headphones in, I knew we had a big ol problem.
I hated how in the movie they said Hades wanted a war. In the books, Hades DIDN'T want a war because the underworld was getting extremely full. He didn’t want any more dead people. And he complained about how he used to be a rich god, but then he had to spend all his money on things like paying people and upgrading the underworld. It completely took away from Hades' backstory and I really disliked that. They made him evil in the movie, but in the book he was really just misunderstood.
Hollywood has an agenda against Hades
As usual, taking care of things better than his brothers
What movie?
hollywood is obsessed with making hades the devil.
@@abiean222it’s because they always feel the need to bring christianity into everything and draw parallels between greek mythology and christianity where none exist. that’s why they keep referring to the underworld as hell in the movie and clearly wanted hades (in his first appearance at least) to resemble satan lol
I'm just starting reading the books (I'm reading Titan's curse now) and I grew up with the movies, so they were very good to me at that time. But now, I'm seeing why everybody hates it lol it's still somewhat appealing for me cause was my first contact with the story but the more I read the more I prefer the books.
PS: the pearls really exist but is POSEIDON'S pearls, not Persephone's, that's a thing I was wondering for a long time in the movie "why Persephone would have pearls? Wtf? Why not flowers or else?"
You say you grew up with the movies, but there are none. I think you were just daydreaming.
@@united_europe They are; They're properly called Petrova Johanssen.
PS I feel the Petrova Johanssen films are different enough from Percy Jackson that they can be enjoyed in their own right(something easier with the first film.)
Calling them the Seeds of Persephone would make much more sense.
I actually think Percy didn’t get powered up from running through the water because it didn’t directly touch his skin. If you see, he only gets healed starting from his hand, not his covered up forearm, which is slightly in the water.
Good theory but at the end of the day let’s not try and think this movie did something for a reason
Percys reaction to his moms death in this movie is literally just the embodiment of, “it is what it is.”
Speaking of death. I always wondered why Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades even made the Pact of 3. I mean yea it was to prevent any powerful children from being used by the enemy, BUT it’s not like they even kept their promise anyhow.
@@geomania8533
I mean, Poseidon and Zeus in Greek Myth often made pacts like that and broke it. And Hades technically never broke the pact at all
I think he was trying to keep it together for Grover's sake.
Percys is a big fan of Ivan Drago.
"If he dies, he dies"
@@geomania8533 Reading the books to the very end (book 5. Last Olympian) would tell you why.
There was a prophecy saying- fuck this. I'll just tell you the prophecy, memorized most of them anyways.
*"A halfblood of the eldest gods, will reach sixteen against all odds.
And see the world in endless sleep.
The heroes soul, curse blade shall reap.
A single choice shall end his days,
Olympus to preserve or raze"*
Yeah.... It's pretty self explanatory.
How did he find a Percy Jackson movie, there isn’t one.
In before people don't get the joke
Same
There is no Percy Jackson movie in Ba Sing Se
@@ValhallaAMV ah so ba sing se really IS a utopia! All hail Long Feng...i mean the Earth king of course....
Oh thank god they didn’t make them in your universe, I come from a time line where there’s a movie for every book including hero’s of Olympus and because of this ww7 has just started
Hades and Persephone are my favorite figures in Greek Mythology. But while I watched these movies as a kid and like them, infact they were my intro into Greek Mythology. Now I don't really care for them to much. And it really grinds my gears to see Hades portrayed as nothing more than a Satan type character.
Some note while Hade's reaction to finding the lightning bolt was under done. I actully found Persephone's reaction to be kinda funny simply due to how obserdly cartoonishly evil it was.
Annabeth was by Percy's side while he was healing because she would only get a quest by a new half-blood, and she was hoping percy would be the one to bring her on a quest.
TMG: I *love* the Percy Jackson series.

The fact that the kid playing Percy went on to play the extremely emotional scenes in Perks of Being a Wallflower shows the lack of direction and poor writing, not the lack of acting skills
Ik it's sad
You are 100% right about that. I totally forgot that was the same kid til I saw your comment
Yes frrrr
He’s such a good actor and this movie really didn’t allow him to showcase his skill :/
Plus it’s the directed of Harry Potter
I think he likes Harry Potter better
His reaction to his mom getting vaporized still cracks me up so bad, I cannot believe that was the take they went with
Imagine the only reason percy was this old is the director got fed up with working with children in Harry Potter.
He actually wanted the cast of harry potter to be 16, but JKR didn’t let him.
Imagine that, children are a nightmare to work with and a director didn't want to deal with the headaches.
@@hernehaugen6878 I know but maybe pick a director who's a friend to children to direct a film with kid heroes?
@@jeffreygao3956 Yeah, except in Hollywood, "friend to children" is a suspicious phrase. Reeks of Epstein.

Luke: "My dad is a jerk, I never met him."
Also Luke: "I broke into my father's house."
In the books:
Percy: "Have you ever met your dad?"
Luke: "Yeah, once."
It really makes a world of difference.
kik
You can break into someone's house without meeting someone, but it still is a bad change
@@RandomPerson0646 yeah but how would he know where his house is
@@Adam-wy7mjProbably because it is the big temple with all the Hermes symbols on it.
Actually, there is a reason Riptide is a capped pen! In House of Hades, Annabeth figures out how if you cap it a certain way, you can write with Riptide, which was really important since she and Percy needed to get a message to camp
Good to know I'm not the only one who noticed it
It also works as Percy taking the blade out of it's sheath, a thing meant to protect the blade, like the illusion protects Riptide by hiding it's presence.
@@naomilanders9381 I never thought of it like that ovo
I was gonna say that but I’m not too sure if Riordan thought that far ahead
@@naomilanders9381 not just that, but also as a way to sheath it back into its mist form disguise. In the movie, its as krimson put it “a clicky top of doom”. Sure, you can click it and somehow not lose your finger to it growing apparently, but in neither movie does there ever show a scene of how he shrinks it. It just does it on its own.
And on top of that, the pen is supposed to be linked to him and return to him after a certain time no matter how far unless magic. None of that is in the movies
Demigod rule number one: no using electronics because they attract monsters. *Calls luke to figure out some shoes* "oh no a hydra I totally didn't think that was going to happen"
He has a whole video game setup
It is horrible
Luke: *playing CoD* pretty sweet right?
The only reason I prefer the pen cap to clicking the pen is because of how it pays off in the House of Hades XD
Annabeth: "I'm the daughter of the goddess of wisdom and battle strategies". Proceeds to take off her helmet, a armour piece guardian one of the most vital areas of the body, right before she starts fighting.
Also, if Percy had been the one to fly up to get the pearl, and around during the hydra fight, in the book, Zeus would have sent him smacking down towards the earth/ground again within seconds.
And I really liked that Riordan didn't just jump to making Hades the bad guy, based on the one fact that he's the god of the underworld. That doesn't automatically make him evil, and it was so refreshing to see, expecially since Hades is actually easily one of the most liked characters in the panteon (expecially between him and his brothers).
an anime character once said "just because your the devil doesn't automatically make you a bad guy"
She learned with Shiryu how to not use her armor
Riordan wrote Hades and Anubis really cool in his books. I can tell he likes the Underworld and moon gods a lot.
@Shavar Campbell783 True, but in his defense I'd say that that matches more with his personality already (based on the stories we have), ulike the personality Hades has in the stories, which gets turned 160 degreees around for the sake of some of the stories people make.
@Shavar Campbell783 I didn't know he was the father of the amazon's, so if that comes up it's in one of the chapters/books I haven't gotten too yet. I also don't remember much about Clarisse (bits and pieces from random scenes), so I don't know what her and Ares relationship was like.
I like how in the books Percy’s mom is like a goddes to him,and was one of the only things that made him happy,his reaction to her being dead in the movie is “dang that’s a unfortunate”
Percy in the books: crying and trying to reunite with his mother in the underworld
Percy in the movie: Damn, that’s sad. anyways back to talking about me
It's like something trying to mimic human emotions.
What movie?
*shut up*
Yeah, the fact that he tries to use the Quest -to get back the Lightning Bolt- to get his mother back, is in my opinion really important. While he wants to help, it is far more important for him to get his mother back.
And by the time they are at the underworld and Percy has the chance, he instead does the right thing and can do nothing but hope that Hades brings his mother back after everything is resolved.
*finger snap* oh nards. That's- that's really annoying. You darn Hades
21:26. My moms the goddess of wisdom, it gives me the power to announce my presence without disarming or detaining my opponent and then IMMEDIATELY take off my helmet before fighting him .
Seriously why did she take off the helmet??? It hurts so much to see .
My biggest problem with Grover in the movies (that very much don’t exist) is that they made the character black so they could say, “look, diversity!” while relegating him to the stereotypical black sidekick trope of “funny black guy who quips and says one liners and not much else.”Essentially they tried to “improve the story by adding diversity and instead ruined it with their own biases cause gods forbid a black character have their own plot development! Black Grover would have been such a cool thing and made sense since Grover’s defining feature is curly hair.
Annabeth is ruined by trying to combine her into two characters, herself and Clarrise.
One obvious sign we should have all seen that they didn't read the book, they changed Mrs Dodds from a maths teacher to an English teacher.
Those of you who haven't read the books might be wondering why this is important. The title of the very first chapter is "I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher"
*pre algebra
Just clarify
@@thatonepercyjacksonfan4786I'm English mate, and as a result, I have a European copy of the book. And my copy says the title I listed above. I actually went and checked before writing the comment to be sure I wrote the exact title.
The only reason I can think that they changed it is so that they could establish Percy's dyslexia, but it's not like they couldn't have done that a different way with a little thought.
Also, it denys the fact that math's teachers are universally evil. 😂
Okay. But that's still largely unimportant to the point that there's no reason to care.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 Of course it is, it's a really minor detail in the grand scheme of things. But it just showed how little they cared about the book as that's a pretty memorable title for a first chapter
"The source material is successful because it's good. So why don't you take what's good and put it on the screen." FOR REAL MAN. So many adaptations failed because they can't get this into their heads.
Accuracy isnt the only problem. The last airbender was basically 1to1 accurate but they completely missed the emotional beats and character development. I feel because of the way this was directed it coulda been one to one and still horrible bc it jus misses the beats in some places
Still applies as personality is part of the good things

So Percy went through this entire this to save his mom only to leave her behind at the end.
Sounds legit.

Movie Annabeth was weird. Book Annabeth was all about proving herself worthy of being a child of Athena. She doesn't take it for granted, at all.
And she isn’t even blonde!
That’s because this Annabeth is literally Clarisse. Literally. And when people didn’t like that and the actors’ chemistry together, the filmmakers said, “let’s find another actress, separate the Annabeth and Clarisse fusion that we made, and make Percy and Clarisse flirt the entire second movie”.
It’s because they wanted the rivals dynamic, but didn’t know how to get it done with Annabeth’s legit character.
Also, she put the flag like *one meter from the water.* You know, the boundary that the flag has to cross to win? Daughter of Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and Battle Strategy, ladies and gentlemen.
Can we just appreciate how 12-YEAR-OLD Percy gets through the first book successfully, being smart, sassy, heroic, and not being told, like, anything and figuring stuff out. While a 17-YEAR-OLD Percy had all his victories handed to him, no sense of humor, and had to get the major plot points TOLD to him by Daddy. Love how a middle-schooler is better suited for questing than the almost colleg-age kid.
Edit: Wow, I've never gotten so many likes before! Thanks for 101 😊
They also sucked all of the awkwardness and sincerity out of Percy. That was what made him a hero. He accomplished incredible things but at the end of the day he felt like an actual 12-year old with a good heart, and a lot of courage. Movie Percy's eyerolling and cynicism hurts me on a physical level.
294 now lol
You mean 17 year old from the books? All the versions of him that are featured while he’s in college aren’t centered around him, so of course it seems a little easy
@@infallis In the movie, Percy is 17. And much less capable than 12-year-old book Percy.
@@miyannapittman5580 yeah but it’s not like this movie existed anyway…..
I love the "Trials of Apollo" book you are holding in the end! :)
I've always felt that the reason Annabeth is the way she is in this movie is because the writers decided to effectively fuse her with Clarise (and then they apparently defuse in the second movie and they act like Clarise was there the whole time, which I feel even more conflicted about)
I thought she was Claire’s the first time I watched it💀
I thought she was Clarisse for a little the first time I watched it lol
I’ve only watched the movies (but I’m planning to read it) and watching the second movie was extremely confusing because of that
Yeah and Clarisse was one of my fav characters :,)
yeah clarisse is there but so is character assanination
I find it hilarious that hermes has a son named Luke. With his winged shoes he is a real sky walker
THis is underrated
Comedy
Thalia (the muse of comedy) approves this
I never thought of that
😂😂
13:10 Percy acted like losing his mother was a inconvinience 😭😭😭
That fisherman reminds me of the homeless guy who saw Percy and co. Land with zeus’ “metal angels from mars”
I love how in Rick Riordan’s later books he takes so many shits on movie adaptations it’s super hilarious probably my favorite was when he revealed the myth accurate Thor and he was like “fuckin Hollywood makes everyone think I look like Chris Hemsworth”
hehehehe....
that's cool.
I liked it too, my only problem was, despite that, he still inaccurately portrayed the Jotnar as giants.
same with when he revealed heracles, he had a similar reaction
@@Lupinemancer87 When did he show jotun as giants? From my memory they were just able to mess with reality pretty well, meaning they can appear giant but only if they want to.
@@FlyingPenguin196 They are being mentioned as giants, even the last pages which has some info about the myths, mentions them as such.
The whole "cruel and abusive" part in the movie with Hades pissed me off, even in the books Hades loved and adored his wife.
She was talking about Zeus
@@BaulFoodmanedits no she wasn't. Apparently you have to rewatch the movie, she even struck Jade's with the masterbolt, Zeus is her father. She wasn't talking about Hades.

28:15 Why would the Gods obey this law? When did they EVER obey a law?
Poseidon even breaks this law multiple times.
To be fair, there was a weird law in the books too. It was just a different law.
From around the 1950s, the Big Three are not allowed to have children with mortals.
Zeus broke it twice.
Poseidon broke it once.
Hades did _not_ break it.
@@amnabatool7946 Well, you answered yourself. They were born before the oath was made, so they are not an instance of the oath being broken.
And Hades even kept the spirit of the oath. He put the surviving two in stasis in the Lotus Casino until the oath was so thoroughly broken by his brothers that they had no right to complain.
@@frantisekvrana3902 yea sorry it was 11 pm when i wrote that comment and i was sleepy
"The source material is successful because it's good! Why don't you take what's good and put it on the screen, instead of replacing it with stuff we are tired off?"
That is such an accurate take on modern films (2010 onward). These films and lately TV shows almost all start with a very successful series of books, comics or video games, which are famous because they're unique, different, risky...then studios decide "Too unique, more conformity", "Too different, people will be confused", "Too risky, we won't make a 20x profit"...which is funny because they replace everything unique with every cliche people outside the US like myself get a laugh out of guessing in mediocre films.
It's also hilarious that in making the film safer, more broadly appealing, it loses 90% of the profits it would've had because...well, we saw this film 5, 10, 20, 40 years ago, nothing's changed except the effects when you rely on cliches.
Serious, tell me a major difference between Percy and Perseus besides one being older, one having winged shoes instead of pegasus, the different fathers and being a stubborn dick at times? (Percy Jackson and Clash of the Titans). They also both get a mystical sword that folds neatly into just a handle/a pen, a badass shield of some sort, a means of flight, their parents get attacked (Percy's mom and Perseus' adopted family).
Yet where was that issue with Superman: Red Son? It’s not the most accurate adaptation or the most expensive adaptation of Superman: Red Son but it’s still good.
The one thing that irritated me was the fact that they act like the Mist doesn't even exist. Like that fisherman should not see Poseidon and the cleaning lady should not have seen Medusa's head
Well to be fair it just makes it look like something else that does not mean that the thing that makes it look like I won’t be scary
They fuck up the mist even worse in the next movie. Honestly, it probably would have been better if they just ignored it like they did in the first movie. Not a whole lot better, but maybe, like, 1% better.
@@alexjewett7455 They made the mist just a parfume
@@alpborakirte801 and in a later scene they showed the mist working like it does in the book. Which opens up a plot hole the size of Alaska.

Daughter of the goddess of wisdom and battle strategy
Procedes to take off helmet before fight
You're about to hit 1,000,000. I suggest Immortals and maybe The Odyssey, a 1997 mini-series about Odysseus' journey home.
"My mother is the goddess of wisdom and strategy"
Takes off the most fucking important piece of her equipment.
Guess she didn't get the wisdom gene
Recessive genes??
Dumb is dominant after all
…in the movie I mean. 👀
Helmets are important in a battle.
And just a few minutes before Luke even demands where Percy's helmet was.
Acts more like Ares kid than the other one.
There are exactly two good things this movie did:
1. Introduce the name of a great book series to people who didn't know that they existed.
2. Show future adaptors of this series what not to do.
Honestly, Logan Lerman would've been a good Percy Jackson had he been cast for The Titan's Curse onwards.
@@jeffreygao3956r potentially playing Percy in a Heroes of Olympus series? That’d be cool.
Second Percy Jackson movie: ima ignore the second part.
@@jeffreygao3956true. He’s definitely a good casting choice at least looks wise.
@@jeffreygao3956 With the new cast, Riordan feels that everyone involved is "perfect," even if they don't look exactly like how they might have been written in the original books. With Scobell, Riordan noted, "Did I care that his hair is a different color than what is described in the book? Not at all. He just felt like Percy.” With Simhadri's Grover, Riordan similarly added, "Does he look exactly like I describe him in the book? No. That doesn’t matter."
"Leah impressed me from the moment I met her. She has that sort of steel that makes her a leader, but there’s a bit of vulnerability to her," the author went on to say about Jeffries. “Now, again, does she look like Annabeth looks in the books? No. Was that important to me? No. If anything, it was a massive benefit to broaden the cast in terms of representation.”
Now I'm gonna dig out my percy jackson books and spend the next 3 days falling back into that rabbit hole
45:50 “Oh look Like has his scar now” I thought that he said sword for a minute, which is also a part of the books the movie cuts out. In the books Luke has a sword made of steel and the fantasy metal Celestial bronze so it can hurt both humans and monsters, whereas the other sword are only made of celestial bronze to only hurt monsters
Some gods doesn't talk to their children because they generally don't care, Ares for example he mostly talks to clarisse down and just speak to her to get her down, Poseidon can't because it's implied he actually is mostly busy with it's kingdom and you know it's second family stuff and most of them doesn't know because for them is like "ohh you are my son... hehehe crap"
maybe Zues doesn't hang out with his kids cuz, y'know. He has SO many kids
@@Jay_Games4409 that's another factor
@@Jay_Games4409 not in percy jackson. He also made the oath so he only had... 2. Hades is the only one who kept the oath tho he did refuse to murder his 2 children that already existed... he just made sure they didn't age.
At least Poseidon cares about Percy. Zeus only cares about himself, not Thalia or Jason. (RIP Blonde superman)
@@omalleycaboose5937 ok but the children before the oath are negligenciated
20:00 Helping people is also literally Percy's fatal flaw. Having him act like he doesn't care makes him not Percy
I completely agree in fact it gets him and his friends in the trouble throughout the series it's not until camp Half-Blood meets the other camp I can't remember the name of right now and they go in their epic adventure that he finally learns to start letting other people help him.
@@squirrel8185 Camp Jupiter.
Wasn't his fatal flaw his loyalty to friends? Or maybe I just read too much fanfic.
@@eveakane6563 yeah athena tells him he would sacrifice the world for a friend
@@LycanLucian Wasn’t it Camp New Rome?
This movie has such an incredible cast it’s sad to see the waste. Pierce Brosnan, Sean Bean, Logan Lerman. They’re all amazing
Something that I love is that Perseus (who was given flying shoes from Hermes) and Luke (who is the son of Hermes) gave Percy (who is named after Perseus) flying shoes
Hades?! Abusive!?
Hades loved Persephone, he literally said in the myth “I will raise all the gold and gems under the earth for you, if Demeter tries to get you back I will break the ancient laws and reanimate all the old soldiers of Greece and Rome to fight for you!” YOUR TELLING ME THAT MAN WAS ABUSIVE!?!?!!
Maybe a little possessive
@@theleviathan3902 THAT I can believe, but there is more than just the usual toxic masculinity. They are Gods. To disrespect them is literally blasphemy. If you don't respect the Dread Persephone, you are not only disrespecting her as her own woman and his wife, but also as a Goddess.
That army would win against any modern army as technically hades can raise all the dead soldiers for his army and train everybody else to fight in the army, when one of his soldiers die he resseruct that soldier and when an enemy soldier dies(aka basically immortal), boom new soldier for his army. There is no way to defeat that without the help of some powerful magic that I bet only the primordial Greek God Chaos(or if other extremely powerful gods from different religions exist in that universe like the Christian/Jewish/Muslim God(who BTW are the same person)) has can defeat that.
Well he did abduct her
@@theleviathan3902
That is true but tbf so was Demeter. She wouldn't let anyone marry her daughter and practually sheltered her
And in some versions she made Persephone dress as a little girl and hid her away on the island.
40:00 I also loved how in the books they say they thought Hades would want a war to expand his domain and then he immediately replies it’s already a nightmare to manage and calls out the cliche. Perfect subversion of the expectations.
Yeah exactly! Hades is literally just minding his own business and doing the job that he literally got saddled with.
He might not like it but he cares about his job and wants to do it the right way. He doesn't want chaos and disorder even more than they're already is.
Hades is literally just over here doing his own thing and minding his own business and not causing problems and he doesn't WANT problems either!
Hades is literally the most normal out of all of his brothers and sisters
@@EmmyJeanBeanand considering that this is Greek Mythology we're talking about, that says a LOT.
@@EmmyJeanBeanHe is though.
In the underworld, he couldn't f**I everything female he saw (unlike someone with lightning I could mention), and so was pretty normal.
He then got lonely and tried to make Persophone love him. He may have kidnapped her, but she still sort of enjoyed her time in the underworld, even after she was required to go there.
Hades is just very misunderstood, and probably a just nice guy with a crappy job
@@isaiaholaru5013 The goofygods comics make Hades very relatable, if a bit cartoonishly so.
I mean imagine you having to govern and manage a good few billion spuls a day
Like not even like a king where you delegate that shit away but actually govern them like say a manager of a hotel
It's pure hell, like i imagine if given the option Hades woukd jump into tartsrus if ut ment a vacation from it for a week
14:20 i mean if i knew my mother or dad was a God a very POWERFUL God i’d either pass out or take a quick 1 min to process everything
If the Percy Jackson movies back then were so good, we could've been watching the Kane siblings or Magnus Chase by now
"It's exceedingly rare for a child to be born of the big three". Clearly who ever wrote this line has never heard of Zeus
I think people who aren't a child of zues IS MORE RARE!
Zeus has cheated on Hera so many times I don’t think Zeus can keep track
Poseidon's no slouch, either.
@@sarateed1910 wait, he kept track at one point?
To be fair, he must've meant AFTER the whole oath thing. If not, yeah Zeus has a...reputation so to speak.
Funnily enough, the only reason I began reading the Percy Jackson books was because my mum wouldn't let me watch the movie until I did- she's really big on reading the books before watching any adaptations, with all series'.
It was kinda funny how disappointed I was watching this film afterwards, as by that point I was in love with the series. 😂
"she's really big on reading the books before watching any adaptations, with all series'" that's a terrible idea
@@eternallucifer7709 Why so? I personally think it's a good idea. You get to experience the story with your own imagination first, before getting someone else's take on it.
@@izzisart because the movies are always going to be worst and you will never be capable of truly enjoying them, because your expectations are already way to high. Basically, you won't be able to appreciate adaptations altogether
To me, it was the opposate.
When i was 11 i think, watched the movies with my older brother, then a few months later when i had found the book "the Lightning thief" and seen on the cover the same as the movie which i liked, i tried.
And now i have been a fan for 8 years.
@@eternallucifer7709 I won't be able to appreciate adaptations because I read the source material first? I don't quite follow- often it gives me greater appreciation for the adaptation if it's done well, and if it's not, then I'm glad I experienced the better version. But it's just my opinion, you do what works for you.

Me: Do you mean Hades children are very rare? Since Zeus and Poseidon had so many kids it was difficult beside a few kids to know which one they belong to.
But in the story line of this stuff the made a deal to have no kids
@@BaulFoodmanedits I know I read the books but I meant that overall in myths and legends
@@hiroshock smh 🤦♀️
Also why the HADES did they make Persephone hate her husband!? They're literally one of the if not only healthy relationship in mythology. I wouldn't be surprised if they actually made Hera love Zeus and vise versa if they continued
@Ryuu Draco They probably wanted to keep Hades is evil trope alive.
10:21 THIS IS A PEN THIS IS A PENN
that persephone/grover moment made me think HOW IS THIS A KIDS MOVIE
"Ha ha, beastiality is funny. Oh who am I kidding, it's probably the most mythologically accurate thing in this movie."
I couldn't suppress a laugh there.

Perry Jonas and the electricity nabber
That one scene where Poseidon visits Percy and then a train comes and he disappears….. didn’t Dumbledore do that in the Half Blood Prince
The change of the pen actually does kill Percy and Annabeth, because in the house of Hades, Percy and Annabeth are stuck in Tartarus and they have to use the actual pen riptide by putting the cap on the other end And cooking it won’t look like that and they had to use the payment in order to leave the camp that they’re OK so without the camp, they wouldn’t die so they would be stuck in Tartarus and ultimately died so the change of the pen
In a live action setting, there won't be an oppertunity to do that kind of extended universe. If the universe were animated, then sure.
But then again the Percy Jackson show dose show this Chang of a pen
But fair point I like the way you think
When I first saw Annabeth in the movie I thought she was supposed to be Clarisse except she didn't look anything like Clarisse was described either. So I was like, that's an underwhelming Clarisse and then it was Annabeth and it was somehow worse. Then later on when they introduce Clarrise they fuck up her character design too.
I thought she was clarisse too! And I wached the second movie first (Annabeth had blond hair there) so I was even more sure. I was even sure they made her daughter of Athena. I just couldn't accept it was Annabeth
Can anyone pls tell me is percy Jackson comic is different than percy Jackson book or they have the same stories and which one should I read or they are only books no comic

@@ognicho2333 thanks a lot 😊
Yeah it seems like they were trying to merge Annabeth and Clarisse’s characters in the first movie. Which is lame
Also, Hades and Persephone had the healthiest relationship out of all the Greek gods, he treated Persephone with kindness, she was only allowed to visit him in winter.
Aside from Eros and Psyche.
@@sevenrings9450 yeah those guys had a great relationship. Couldn't even be ruined by Aphrodite's antics.
@@sevenrings9450 I remember reading the Percy Jackson and the Greek Heroes book, and it was like ' two happy endings in a row, move on to Phaethon '.
The biggest nail in this coffin (and trust me, they'res more nails than wood at this point) is the fact that they removed the entire concept of the gods claiming their children. The REASON Luke was so upset about the gods was that they wouldn't claim their children, paired with the fact that any unclaimed children are automatically housed at the Hermes cabin (Luke's godly parent) and it's very small and cramped. (That and there's a few other reasons I won't get into as their spoilers for later books) This bugs me because Percy's request when he gets to Olympus wasn't to bring back Grover but rather for the gods to start being more involved and actually claim their children. This has a ripple effect later on as more kids are finally finding out who their godly parent is, and Camp Half-Blood is full of demi-gods of both major gods (i.e Athena, Ares ect.) And minor gods (i.e Janus, God of Doors and Hypnos, God of Sleep)
If Grover had just said, "Yea I'm the protector. I'm gonna protect my jacket, can have this old hoodie."

8:59 I feel like they added Percy not paying attention in the movie to emphasize his ADHD. But even that doesn't justify the change because hyperfixation (also known as "extreme productivity") is a legitimate symptom of ADHD. There can be one or more things that someone with ADHD can focus on and absorb if it interests them. And I'm sure Rick Riordan knew that, because Percy in the books is constantly shown to lack interest/focus in many subjects except for the one he hyperfixates on: Greek mythology.
Yea I am pretty sure his son had ADHD and dyslexia and that was why he created the story cause he would readthe books to him but I may be completely wrong
He also has dislexia

The thing I hated most about this movie is definitely the misunderstanding of hades. Especially how they made him abusive to Persephone which is completely inaccurate to the book and mythology. Hades actually loved Persephone and Persephone grew to love hades. Because he proved to her he was a good kind, loving man. She actually loved her time spent in hades and never wanted to leave but knew she had to. So definitely some major inaccuracies
It's not even that I hate about this movie, it's the way they made him look. In the movie, they just made him look so weirdly casual, ungodly. In comparison, in the book, one of Percy's first thoughts is that Hades is the first god he's met that actually looks godly.

If you're gonna make the Hydra draconic, do not give it legs. Or wings, for that matter, but at the very least do not give it legs. Winged legless dragons exist, they're called amphitheres, and they are very cool.
Edit: I don't know I forgot about Wyrms. Wingless, legless dragons which actually make more sense than amphitheres, since amphitheres usually have feathers, while wyrms are scaled.
