I'm pretty sure there's no Thalia and Clarrise is Percy's friend. -_-


Brandon 1) it was a boarding school not a high school
2) they didnt pass the law that no god can see the kids because of percy
3)Chiron didnt give him riptide
4) posiedon didnt build a personal cabin for percy
5)i dont remember the minotaur killing his mother
6)did they drive cars in the books?
7)they never show the friendship of annabeth and luke
8)they didnt even bother with the miner details like the nymphs, oracle, camp t-shirts, cabins not tents,

1) ........ Percy cant be that old.... honestly .. he ll be more mature if he's big ... the entire movie was spoilt !! ... and i thought he didn't have a phone .. let alone an iPhone !! ??

2) .... Percy was listening to Chiron in the museum ... HE WASN'T LISTENING TO MUSIC !! ...........

3) .. Percy met annabeth in the farm house .. he didnt watch her sword fight .... p.s did you notice that her 'knife' was a tad bit longer and she was 'sword fighting' ???.....in capture the flag annabeth was the leader ! and she was with Percy .... the annabeth sucked in the movie !!! so did the rest

4) the casino part .... WOAH just WOAH i mean it wasn't a casino ... it was a hotel ... and they didn't eat flowers or play roulette in the book ... they played games ......(this is why big Percy ruined the movie ) .. it was all tooo quick and spoilt

5)... in Medusa's place ...... what happened to the eating part ... where they go and eat food ....and talk to her ..???? that part just disappeared !! ...

6) THE MAIN PART OF THE MOVIE WAS TO go to Hades ...INSTEAD! ... they went searching for pearls .. where else in the book Percy gets it for free .. and what happened to the part Percy falls in to Mississippi ??? ............i seriously doubt the director read the book ... i heard he was going to direct harry potter movie .. thank god he didnt !!


Hannah EVERYTHING!
Besides Percy's beautiful face. They got that :-)

Thank you for pointing that out. People we don't meet Kronos till The Battle of the Labyrinth or The Last Olympian. Also did they have the name calling such as Wise girl and Seaweed Brain. I haven't seen the first movie. A friend warned me away, good advice it seems.

Nateinnator I don't even understand why they made this movie like this it should have been way better. this movie is not one that I will remember. I will remember the book but NOT the movie.
