Hi my fellow demigods!! Okay so we’re doing this, it’s time to watch the first Percy Jackson movie after reading the books for the first time earlier this year 🔱 This movie was UHHH something! Thank you to everyone who warned me that it wasn’t going to be entirely book accurate, I’m sorry I didn’t heed your warnings but also not sorry because this was quite the experience. Hopefully the Percy Jackson show will do the books more justice, but for now I’m just going to appreciate Logan Lerman and ignore everything else! Let me know your thoughts on the movie in the comments, I’m curious to hear if people liked it!

Trust me,when I first read the books I was trying to find a new series to read and I got so many suggestions to read Percy Jackson then I saw that the books had movies and I was like people say the books are WAY better then the adaptations of any movie or series so I read all of the books first and then i thought about the movies and I was really really excited so I got my mom and we watched the movie together and the entire time I was complaining and I was angry and annoyed and I couldn’t even stand to watch it but I powered through thinking that it might get better but it got worse man.For unlucky me I watch the entire first movie and I was complaining to my mom about it and then complained to my friends about it and suggested to NEVER watch the movies.I really tried to separate the movies from the books but couldn’t I was really hyped about those movies and got completely disappointed when I watch the first one.Cause I LOVE Percy Jackson and it hurts my heart that the movies take away the meaning of the books.Im not complaining about the actors because they were doing what they were supposed to do I’m complaining about the material that the script writers and the directors decided to do.Sorry that I got on a rant

The difference between the Harry Potter movies and the Percy Jackson movies is with Harry Potter JK Rowling was involved from beginning to end, where they cut out Rick Riordan for Percy Jackson, he even volunteered to help them to make sure it turned out right and they turned him down

@rzuue 5 ай бұрын

I heard this actually happens pretty often when books (or similar stuff) are adapted. The directors and boards already don't value script writers a lot and they tend to look down on authors just the same or sometimes even worse. Which is so stupid, because if the author hadn't written a great book and wasn't a good story teller they wouldn't even have anything to adapt.

That’s one of the reasons I really like Luke, cause it is incredibly true to real life. Plenty of terrible people are charming and nice at first, but then they have hidden motives or a nasty side to their personality they don’t show you till way later. Him being so nice, and then betraying Percy, felt so real.

And as a hole, I have minor nit picks, but this show does things right, way more then wrong, especially if you also compare it to the movies. It even has changes I really like, like Eddie not being friends with Gabe in this version. But that might just be because I like the line: “I’m the one going out, you’re going in. I should apologize to you.” I’m optimistic about this, and looking forward to the next episode.

I remember ranting so hard and long to my friends and family (the autism kicked in hard over the differences between the two) and I’ve never been able to enjoy the movies since.

Even Luke in the musical, it was kinda hinted that he hated the gods but he was such a nice and caring person just UGH

@hiraeth.42 5 ай бұрын

oh no. She has felt real sadness and anger.... there is no cure Edit: can we bring attention to the fact that even the movie on its own doesn't make sense? Like, if there is rule that the Gods can't interact with their children... why is Luke so angry? It isn't Hermes' fault! He says "oh yeah the gods don't care about us" but when have they ever shown they do not care about their kids? The musical was so much better....

I hadn't read the books when I watched the first movie, but I liked it *gasp*, and that prompted me to read the book, I've pretty much read all of Uncle Rick's books since then

I have read the books (loved them) and seen the movies and the movies are for some reason two of my favorite movies ever. I also think that the fact they look older in the movies are super nice. Its the one thing i dont like about the books. Like there's no way a 12yr old did that stuff in the book but in the movies even tho they are supposed to be that age they atleast look 16-17 which fits more.

I love the Lord of the Rings movies! I do think they are a good adaptation and that it keeps the spirit. But I would’ve love certain scenes in the movies that didn’t get added. Same as the Percy Jackson show there are a few scenes that I was disappointed that wasn’t in them. But that is what comes with adaptations nothing is going to be perfect with them. Plus I always have the books to go back to and I have my ✨ imagination ✨ and fan-art/fan-videos of to see scenes and moments I wanted to see.

I would love to see your reaction to the Disney+ Percy Jackson show (i liked the 1st 2 episodes very much). Also I am curious as to how you will react to the 2nd movie if u "liked" the 1st one this much 😅

The second movie is even more terrible. It craps on the entire climax of the 5 books instead of just the one it was 'supposedly' adapting. You should watch it 😈 even if only to share the trauma and truly understand why we were so scared for the new adaptation!

@satoshirei4242 5 ай бұрын

I remember reading the Lightning Thief as part of my library’s teen council and barely looking back. When I finally saw the movie, on the other hand, my response was to go back to the book to compare-contrast, leading to me becoming hooked and reborn as a fanboy. So thank you movie, as bad as you were, you opened my eyes for the first time in my life to what I could not see before. #PercyJForever!

One of my biggest pet peeves from this movie (besides that it's bad, haha) is how they get to the underworld and are surprised they can only take 3 people with them and need to leave someone, even though they already knew the function of the pearls and gathered 3. It would've been so easy to resolve that, even when the movie stays largely the same, when you let Luke give them another pearl and make that pearl fall in a pit in the underworld or something like that. It's just so weird to have that scene - a really powerful, touching scene in the book - when they knew beforehand how the pearls work and are definitely old enough to count to four.

To answer your on screen text question, no the second movie is not good. However, now that you've already committed to the first one, you might as well watch the second too. If nothing else than for the "HEY. Don't walk on my roof." Line, which is one of the few good things to come out of these movies lol

I watched this before reading the book and while it wasn't bad, I wasn't blown away by it either. I never saw the second movie. Read the books several years later and enjoyed them a lot more.
