Twitter is for people to post their unwarranted thoughts and argue about it

Yoon Ji Hoo is an autistic introvert who doesn't mind being less social and coming across as odd whereas Gu Jun Pyo is an extroverted autist who gets very easily frustrated that social interactions don't go as planned change my mind

This is what I'm saying!!! I am of course such a "this is what actually happened in the books" kind of person but the rewritten script offers so much depth and genuinely feels like a part of the book, an extension, like a secret layer to the characters we didn't get to feel before!!!!

I kept thinking about how more serious sarcastic, and emotionally in touch TV percy is compared to book percy, but in truth, Book Percy and TV Percy are the same!! TV Percy was just able to get the words out about his fear of abandonment more clearly, and Book Percy shrugged it off, trying to hide behind his goofiness. Book Percy has all those difficult, scared, and unsure feelings, and Scobell made them FEEL real. And TV Percy OF COURSE has the goofy, sassy, sarcastic side.

And also TV Grover delivers his character imo more heart-wrenching than Book Grover, did but it's not that Book Grover WOULDNT say those things, it's more like TV adaptations are MEANT to paint the world more vividly.

Someone said they're imagining Rick is writing the TV series like how he would write the books if he was rewriting the books now, and I think thats true and such a beautiful way to imagine the growth and depth and dynamics of PEOPLE and LIFE of the characters he made. TV adaptations when done well are MEANT to be colouring the things you imagine and dream and intensely visualise. It's what makes a good adaptation.

Ok. I’m still trying to gather my thoughts and settle my hyperfixation after episode 3 of the Percy Jackson show, but one of my conclusions is that this is one of very few adaptations that actually understands the term ‘adaptation’ and furthermore what makes one successful.

On a fundamental level, understanding and respecting the source material is a must. You need to not just know the bullet points of the story, but you need to know the ‘why’s’- why does this story need to be heard, why do people like it, why does it stand out from the others in it’s genre, etc.

Second, you need to deconstruct the source material and piece it back together in a way that makes sense for the new format. Copy-pasting almost never works, since there will inevitably be discrepancies between the readers’ imagination and the adaptation that can distract from immersion.

Third, you need to provide something new. Why does this story deserve to be told in a different format? What can this add to the original themes of a story? What can we change to make the message come across more on screen? Will this dialogue really be as funny when it’s said out loud?

We’ve seen a lot of terrible “adaptations” of animation and books and musicals into movies/tv shows, and I think even among the better ones there is a dissonance between the desire to stay faithful to the source and the desire to make a good adaptation, with whatever changes that may necessitate.

I think while we’ve watched the casting of this series, the hints here and there, and final the premiere with bated breath, they’ve been playing the long game. They cast Walker as Percy before he was in the Adam Project. Many people expressed…unsavory…feelings when Leah was cast as Annabeth, but those of us that trusted the team behind this project- including the author himself- did our best to welcome her and were repaid tenfold with her performance in this episode particularly.

Most of the scenes in this episode were not at all how I imagined them in the book, but I adored it. They took what they were given and expanded on it. They created a mini-arc for the trio learning to trust each other. They gave Medusa a labyrinthine lair. Annabeth is a 12 year old walking into a convenience store for the first time in 6+ years with $200 in her pocket, of course she’s gonna buy as much as she can carry.

The love and care and artistry that went into this single episode brings me so much joy and gives me so much hope. Like I was already excited for a faithful adaptation, but seeing these characters come to life on screen, once you see their chemistry with each other and how they speak and push and pull at each other’s emotions, it has never been more clear to me the amount of care and foresight that went into this show.

Rick said that these kids are the characters he created and for like 2 years I’ve trusted that that was true, but today it was proven beyond the shadow of a doubt.

I am just…in awe.

This is the guy who will ask THE GOD OF WAR if he’s scared to fight him, hold up the sky, fall into Tartarus, save Olympus AND defeat the monsters it takes the other hero’s years to defeat

i think probably at least on a personal level the driving force behind the desire to be cursed demonically kidnapped and eternally forced into a sexual servitude that erodes my very essence by a demonic entity immune to my pleas or even my basic comprehension is more than anything a labor-avoidant fantasy based both in the desire to remove the toil of work and the inability to conceptualize a whole and intact self which does not work, necessitating the theoretical destruction of the soul in order to reckon the removal of obligation with the continued existence of (even torturous and inescapable) pleasure (see Max Weber, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism: a Classic Study of the Fundamental Relationships Between Religion and the Economic and Social Life in Modern Culture, trans. Talcott Parsons (London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd., 1930)). however the horns are at least in part also a factor

Actually Captain Jack Harkness is SO important. During a time when we couldn't get a single queer on screen in most shows and even those few we did get ended up dead 90% of the time, he was not only openly bisexual, he was openly bisexual and LITERALLY unable to die.

Kanej is the biggest proof that the reason I only ever read queer romance isn’t bc I don’t like straight people/romance, it’s just that queer authors usually do a better job at creating a relationship without falling into shitty dynamics. Bardugo did that with them, too

Shoutout to AuDHD kids who were told to just "be who you are" but then when you were, you got told "no not like that".

The fandom collectively sort of agreed that Zelda was a bad cook without a lot of evidence

That was until Age of Calamity came along and actually proved the fandom right!

However, there is a side quest in Tears of the Kingdom that implies she can cook actually

And the only reasonable explanation to this is that Link taught her, obviously

-the fact that they've just found each other and now the whole world's falling apart🥺
