Can someone please explain to me why there's a sudden influx of people saying that the Percy Jackson movies were good? The characters in the films were SO out of character! Like, that is NOT the trio we love. That is the good will trio. Grover was the character that was most of character, at least that's what I noticed, followed by Annabeth. Percy was kind-of a prick and was selfish. His reasoning to going on Clarisse's quest in the SOM movie was to go on it because he's the "chosen on." Grover doesn't get kidnapped until later on, and Tyson is also out of character. They straight up cut Sally out of the second film and had Percy choose to live at camp, for whatever reason. In the movies, Annabeth was so useless. She just stood there doing NOTHING. If she was cut out of the movies entirely, the movie wouldn't be affected that's how insignificant she was in the movies. If anything, she was a damsel in distress. She wasn't the one planning shit out like the books, that was all Percy, especially in Sea of Monsters(movie). In the SOM film, Annabeth literally tries to open the 4 winds thermos for whatever reason, despite supposedly being smart? And then Hermes had to tell her not to use the magic masking tape inside the warehouse. The movies dumbed her down. We barely even had Percabeth moments in the movies, too. So she's literally just there. OH and Percy is stupidly overpowered in the movies. Yeah, it can be argued that Percy was also overpowered in the books, but he at least he trained in the books while in the movies he's just powerful. I already had low expectations for these films when I watched them last night, but the movie was WORSE than I originally thought, I doubt that the movies would have even been "good" if they were a stand alone series instead of an adaption. The movies were edgy and inconsistent with each other. The sudden design changes in the second film caught me off guard. This is JUST the tip of the iceberg. I have an 11 page google doc of all the inaccurate scenes in these trashy film, plus just scenes that make no sense at all. What even led to the directors and writers taking this direction for the Percy Jackson series? Did they even read a fraction of the source material?(the answer is no.)

I’m not gonna lie , I hate the Percy Jackson movies. They are awful, and even by themselves they’re awful. There’s no iconic scenes for me. Not “this is a pen” or the poker face scene. It was all genuinely bad even as a stand alone.

This sudden influx of people acting like the movies were any bit good or “iconic” is a wee bit weird ngl

i just really want to know why Luke has a full on gaming set up in his tent(???) in the lighting thief movie. Like, I get it, hermes kids smuggle shit into camp, but how did Luke smuggle in TWO pretty big TVs, like two computer monitors, and a home console into his tent(??) without Chiron or Mr. D noticing. He doesn't even play his video game with headphones on! This movie has me so confused guys

If the Percy Jackson series does end up getting all five seasons, then one thing I hope to see in season 5 is to see Clarisse scream again, but this time louder with more emotion seconds after Silena dies in her arms. Bonus points of Clarisse screams Silena's name!

more riordanverse head-canons!

Frank HATES physical touch. He's okay with handshakes, hugs from Hazel, and the occasinol hug from one of the seven, but other than that he DESPISES physical touch.

Piper and Leo watch Lolirock together and sing the songs together

Nico and Will have matching tattoos on their wrists (and got in trouble with Mr. D and Chiron for getting said tattoos. Will gets a skull tattoo and Nico gets a sun tattoo.)

Personally, I always found it odd that Annabeth and Percy got out of Tartarus with basically no physical injuries. I mean yeah, they got (more) trauma but tartarus is very dangerous... so... I headcanon that Percy lost his right lower leg(like two or three inchesbelow his knee) and that Annabeth lost her left arm(like two or three inches under her elbow) while they were in tartarus.

Either after Leo returned to CHB or at the Waystation, Leo created Percy and Annabeth prosthetics for them. (bonus, the prosthetics are cool as hell)

Percy and Annabeth have matching tattoos on their left arms(i.e Percy has "wise girl" with an owl tattoo and Annabeth has "seaweed brain" with a trident tattoo)

Piper and Leo will gossip together because they are the bestest of friends. Change my mind, (you can't)

Piper McLean Fanart + Headcanons!

Piper likes to paint her nails, but when she gets anxious she picks the nail polish off her nails, leaving the nail polish on her nails chipped

She taught the 7 + Reyna, Nico, and Will how to surf

Piper loves to watch horror movies with Jason and Leo(even though Jason isn't a fan of horror movies and Leo screams at everything, but Leo loves horror movies)

She enjoys skateboarding. Percy taught her how to skateboard as a "thank you" for teaching him how to surf

Piper, Annabeth, and Hazel have "girl nights out" at least once a week if neither of them are busy. It's usually Piper who pays for everything

riordanverse head-canons!

Some riordanverse (heroes of olympus, magnus chase, percy jackson, etc...) head-canons that have been living in my head rent free -Leo loves Garfield. Piper loves Hello Kitty. -Hearthstone is really expressive when signing but the moment he stops signing, like the VERY second he stops signing, he goes expressionless like how he is described in the books. *ASL is a visual language. A big part of ASL is facial expressions, it's what differentiates similar signs from each other. I always found it odd that Hearth stayed "emotionless" when signing because, presumably, is fluent in ASL as he's deaf. -Jason has low blood pressure, which is why he faints often. He gets diasogned with low blood pressure by Asclepius when Asclepius gave him glasses.

I'm re-reading the lighting thief and as I read I remembered that Ares helped Luke in starting the Second Titan vs God War. It was never revealed if Ares was punished or not, which to me makes it seem like Ares was never punished which is weird to me because Apollo in Heroes of Olympus, at the bare bones, did the same thing as Ares and he pretty much got exiled from Olympus, leading into Trials of Apollo. Dionysus' got punished for getting with one of Zeus' favorite nymphs. In Greek mythology and just judging by the personalities Rick wrote for the Olympians, Ares is far from Zeus' favorite child and it seems like, to me at least, that Zeus would find any reason to punish Ares. So why, at least by the information I found, wasn't Ares punished for helping Luke starting the Second Titan vs God War?
