And Percy figured out that Poseidon was his dad just by looking around the cabin. In the book, there is a blue holographic symbol thingy of a trident.


Sabzzy123 so stupid, these people no nothing of Greek mythology and insult us by portraying it as such to the public

Abby If you only saw the movie and didn't read the books then it was a good movie. Though I totally agree, Hollywood totally messed with it. there was N0 mention of kronos, so the movie series has already failed. Anyone else notice that?

I agree! Directors always leave out the important details. And did anyone notice the ages of the characters? Percy is 13, but looked 16 in the movie. So disappointed.


Stefanie Câmara Manoel k i think we all agree that they made so many mistakes that, im surprised that his name wuz percy in the movie!

Alexia Ikr? At least they had enough decency to keep the right names.

Mia I hated the movie and loved the book!


message 184: by Alexia (new) - rated it 5 stars

Alexia Annabeth didn't even seem to have the right personality. She seemed too calm. In the book, she seemed more aggressive. You know what I mean? Wrong personality.


Wrothmonk I once tried to make a list of everything they got wrong in the movie. I threw out that idea out when I reached 200 and made a list of what they DIDNT get wrong. The list only have around 15 items. All and all I'm surprised the movie got above one star.

me or the people that are making it? if it was me, sorry, but i figured it was better for you to know now instead of in a year, so you have some time to mourn, organize riots, plea send threats to the producers, and so on.
