Agreed. I was nine year old when they come out and begged my grandma to watch them with me. To make it short, I got two weeks house arrest because that movie let me curse like a sailor. I was just so pissed at this😂
I think one of the biggest trespasses is that they make Poseidon this perfect Dad that wants to be there for Percy but is forbidden. While he did visit Percy as a Baby Poseidon didn’t really care about Percy until after he becomes an important political piece for him
Agree! Especially since I think Book-Poseidon is even more complex than that. I don't think he only cares about Percy as a political piece. He does kinda love his children, but he just doesn't know and doesn't really care to be a good dad for them since they're just not really... important enough for him. You can see that in the way he acts around Percy but also around Tyson. He's kinda proud, he also has positive feelings for them going beyond them being political but he doesn't know how to handle this feeling at all and also kinda has so many other things on his plate that learning how to handle also is not really high on his priority list especially since he has like hundreds of children. And tbh: That feels way more realistic than Poseidon forgetting that he is a god because he has a child with a human.
@@Honeymuffinthis is exactly correct Poseidon is not the best father while I think he still does love Percy And it’s kinda stated he left to protect Percy he DEFINITELY thinks of Percy as a political piece I think Poseidon gets a little to much hate but it’s not like book Poseidon is a good person I mean a big theme of Greek myth is that the gods suck and in the movie they made up a dumb law about the gods not being aloud to see their kids yeah let’s just break the entire main theme of the story
You know what I just thought? When the show comes out you can do a reaction series to all the episodes. You are already a PJO fan so you pretty much will be able to judge the episodes at first view!!!! I'm so hyped for something that hasn't even come out yet😂😭😭
31:10 Yeah, they literally got it backwards with the general aesthetics of the gods. In the book, the gods on Olympus were all dressed in more modern style clothing, with Zeus wearing a business suit and Poseidon wearing stereotypical fishing clothes. Meanwhile Hades was dressed more like what Percy expected the gods to dress like, wearing silk robes (with tortured souls sewn in).
I remember when I was deep in the fandom back in like,, 2016 in middle school and that line was memed to death,,, I felt that rendition of the line on a spiritual level
I liked these movies until I read the books. Now I spend the entirety of both these movies going ‘wrong, wrong, that’s wrong, that’s wrong too’ until my husband goes ‘stop! Enjoy the movies for what they are’ Two seconds later, I go ‘that’s wrong!’
A big problem with the scene in Percy's family apartment is that with Percy being a grown man, presumably 17, he could actually throw hands with Gabe, a crux of the story was that with Percy being like 12 he was powerless to stop Gabe. But this Percy could deck Gabe, maybe start the movie with that and that's why he goes to the shoddy boarding school or something.
One of the many things which annoy me about the 1st movie is that no one explains WHY everyone thinks Percy is the thief. Why did Zeus immediately blame Poseidon, why not any of the other gods or creatures? It just baffles me.
Comparing TLT trio adaptations: Film Percy: Lemme just put headphones in cuz Im a cool teen Musical Percy: I swear that I’m a good kid - yea Percy that’s a good one Film Grover: Ohh look the Aphrodite girls time to be a ladies man Musical Grover: Ohh look a bunch of empty boxes! Film Annabeth: Let me just go kill everyone without using any stratagy, my cap or my knife. Musical Annabeth: You drool when you sleep You better wise up cuz I’ll rise up Bring on any challenge, and someday soon someone will notice me.
i think that if you watch the movies as their own individual thing, they're not that bad, but when you then compare them to the books, they're horrible.
I think the first movie fits this like it’s semi-competently made and has some cool moments. But that second movie??? Woof that’s just bad as a film from the flat characters to the contrived plot, to the unclimactic final “battle” just made me sad over all -10/10
Not exactly because even the mythology is wrong. It also goes to the stereotypes like Zeus being the main focus of the good guys and Hades the real bad guy, even though Hades is pretty much a better god and person than his brother. Persephone isn’t supposed to be there because it’s summer and she loves Hades, he treats her like a true queen, even though he actually had kids with another woman.
@@AshleeTayla13 I completely agree and understand no respect for the source material they contradict how the mist works in both films as well constantly
Considering the fact it was revealed that the first episode of the show opens with Percy reading/recounting the first few pages of the book for like 7 minutes straight, I already know the show is going to be infinitely better than these gods-forsaken movies.
I think they wrapped it all up with Kronos in SOM because they knew that they wouldn't be making another movie Happy holidays and happy new year Ashlee!
ahhh that does make sense! i have a memory of them talking about plans for the titans curse movie but it also makes a lot of sense that the studio would've asked them to wrap it up because they knew a third film was unlikely lmao. happy holidays!!!
I hate it how Percy sorry Perry knew Luke’s last name even though in the Sea of Monsters it’s told that Percy didn’t know Luke’s last name was Castellan but I guess Perry knows
Now that I know the musical exist I vastly prefer the musicals version of Grover. I've never actually finished the first books but I know enough to know that it's a more accurate depiction..
Yes, Hades in the book sent monsters after him because since it was already assumed he stole the bolt he figured Percy also stole his helm of invisibility
Sea of Monsters was written by the same guy who did the Green Lantern movie, and man it shows. Kronos is exactly like Green Lantern's Parallax: A CGI shit monster sealed away that the bad guy wants to revive.
I really enjoyed listening to you voice so many thoughts I’ve had about these movies ever since they came out. I watch these movies occasionally whenever I’ve been letting stress build up too much in order to complain about them and let off some steam.
Another gripe with this film that I literally COULD NOT ignore the first time I watched this film was the Hydra fight. The detail regarding the Hydra that I could not ignore was its middle head did NOT breathe fire. For those unfamiliar with the myth of Hercules and the Hydra, the reason Hercules had so much trouble with the middle head was because it was immortal: even after it was chopped off, it would still be alive, and still trying to kill you.
Fun fact capture the flag was one of my favorite games in pe class we even played it at night once looking back it really reminds me of the capture the flag scene in Percy Jackson we even had glow sticks.
Hearing you groan in agony at the absolute DISASTER that they made of a beloved book series. After watching the first movie when it came out, I was so disgusted and disappointed I noped out so hard... Praying that the tv show does the books justice... 🤞🤞
The only good thing about these movies is that they lead me to the books although once i did i could never go back the books are just so funny and engaging i had to buy the entire series including the Heros of Olympus and Apollo's quest
When I watched this as a young kid without having read the books, I genuinely thought Annabeth was a different character in each film. Because of how different Alexandra Daddario looks with blonde vs dark hair
I’ve already water the lightning theif movie, and I just finished the sea of monsters book, so now I need to go watch my movie. My plan is to have fun insulting the movies, and then use the knowledge of how bad it could get to truly appreciate the series
Even pretending that the books don't even exist (don't ever do that), this movie doesn’t even work well as a movie. Even the frickin author actually said that!
I've always hated Grover asking for Nectar in the drinks. If this was book accurate, Annabeth and Percy would be the only two out of the four that could drink it. Because it would kill Grover and Tyson.
I watched the movie then read the books because I wanted to get into percy Jackson and I didn't want to wait till the books came. And the first time I watched the movie I got bored of it like halfway through the movie but kept watching because I wanted to finish it.
When this movie first came out I enjoyed it being someone who never read the books. Now that I'm older while I don't hate it as much as others I can understand why fans of the books hate it. I am actually looking forward to seeing the disney plus show since I've heard people say it looks good judging by the trailers.
“This movie isn’t that bad in being a baby about it” no it is that bad even if this wasn’t based on the books it would be a horrible sequel to the first movie and a bad movie all together
Ashlee Tayla, you look exactly like Annabeth Chase from the books. You have the same blonde hair, blue eyes, and the same voice I imagined Annabeth to have (starting from the third book, rather than the first). I wonder, why aren't you chosen to play her in the Disney Plus show?
Watching your video just now is when I realised that I haven't seen the 2nd half of the sea of monsters. I think I must have given up half way through in the past.
There's so much missed from the books like hos meeting with luke when he's put in the hermes cabin till poesidon claims him. They missed so much from the books like annabeths... less than great first impression, the fight with ares in the end. And just so much
Medusa talking about how Percy should want to look at her to not be a pawn of the gods makes sense for her character too, not just Percy. Medusa was sorely mistreated by the gods. Poseidon should have been the one to face blame for what he did but Medusa is the one that was cursed.
so i havent read the books, only watched the movie and the series or at least what is has so far, so uhhh ik the books are better but like how much worse are the movies, just so ik what to expect when reading the books
Hands down my BIGGEST beef with this film is how they BUTCHER the relationship between Hades and Persephone. Yes, he did kidnap her in order to marry her, but he was NOT abusive towards her. The reason she fell in love with him was because even though he abducted her, he treated her like an absolute gentleman and behaved towards her in a way that was the exact OPPOSITE of how her mother Demeter told her men would behave towards her.
It hurts to know that hese films exist and how Rick was disrepected. He even posted on his website the emails and discussions he had with the writers and filmakers showing how they ignored his wishes
Joe Pantoliano was the only good casting choice in this movie, and the only book accurate charcater Edit: and Jake Abel, I think he looked like Luke, wasn’t written well but was cast well Edit: 26:10 I never even knew there was an explicit version and I’ve only just now realized that it switches to that
I got introduced to the series through the movies so I am nostalgic for it but they are horrible adaptations but my head canon was they was another sea god seeing Poesdion .
38:58 Annabeth actually does say something similar in the books, but at least for her, it makes sense she would be distrustful of cyclopes with her history. Percy has no excuse.
I honestly think that the reason people hate the movies is because there too original. But in my opinion: if the movies were their own thing then people might like it, but personally to me, as someone who saw the movies as a kid with my cousin, read the books with my mom, rewatched the movies with my mom, watched the show with my mom, and stopped to think about it: they're Not GOD AWFUL, but they're too original and I think thats why people hate the movies. (Edit): now that I think about again, to shorten my comment I'll just say that: the movies ARE GOOD, it's just the plots that people don't like.
I’m a book reader and the problem with the movies is that they are really bad to watch. They feel rushed, CGI is terrible for a 2010ish movie. Also in the second movie, we see the “Sea of Monsters” for like a couple of SECONDS.
The best part of this video was Ash referencing dead meat, cuz I guess this is kind of a horror movie from a certain point of view, now let's get to the numbers of how many brain cells ash lost
These movies weren't just an insult to the books, it was physically painful to watch them.
💯%
Agreed. I was nine year old when they come out and begged my grandma to watch them with me.
To make it short, I got two weeks house arrest because that movie let me curse like a sailor. I was just so pissed at this😂
To be fair, it's only painful if you haven't read the books
@@ericstorm6582it’s painful especially when you read the books
Nah I loved them as a kid and I read all the books before watching u just a stickler for accuracy
I think one of the biggest trespasses is that they make Poseidon this perfect Dad that wants to be there for Percy but is forbidden. While he did visit Percy as a Baby Poseidon didn’t really care about Percy until after he becomes an important political piece for him
this is SUCH a good point oh my god
Agree! Especially since I think Book-Poseidon is even more complex than that. I don't think he only cares about Percy as a political piece. He does kinda love his children, but he just doesn't know and doesn't really care to be a good dad for them since they're just not really... important enough for him.
You can see that in the way he acts around Percy but also around Tyson. He's kinda proud, he also has positive feelings for them going beyond them being political but he doesn't know how to handle this feeling at all and also kinda has so many other things on his plate that learning how to handle also is not really high on his priority list especially since he has like hundreds of children.
And tbh: That feels way more realistic than Poseidon forgetting that he is a god because he has a child with a human.

"I don't know why that had to change" is my reaction to almost every part of this film 😂

Oh my god- *insert exasperated sigh*
oh of couRSE he is. i have so many questions for everyone involved with casting these movies holy shit
‘Selfish…. They only care about themselves’ yeah that’s usually what selfish entails 😂
IM CRYING i didn’t even pick up on this BUT THATS SO FUNNY
@@AshleeTayla13 Luke is just a compilation of really awkward shit he says 😂😂😂 (relatable)
The monotone reciting of the "strong feelings" scene is hysterical. I'm sorry you've put yourself through enough hell to have it memorized though

The book series helped me get away from all of the drama and expectation in the world and in society. I hope that the TV series does the same for me.
I watched the Lightning Thief when I was 10, and I had liked it, but when I read the book after, I questioned why the movie got EVERYTHING wrong
Yep, exactly the same for me. Now me and the friend who got me to read them are hyped for the TV show. I hope its a good as the trailer!
@@shibadawn I just watched the trailer of the first episode and it is really good, and the author gets to be a part of the TV series.

Also they made Hades into the quintessential bad guy yet again.
Eventhough it was the exact opposite situation in the book!!
@@meghnagoel6766 right? I love Hades in the books. He has layers, you feel sympathetic towards him, and the movie version was just a let down.
@@juliab.6592 Exactly I just haaate how they acted like Hades is the Greek equivalent to Satan and made him abusive towards Persephone
@@meghnagoel6766Not only the bad guy, but also the stereotypical figure of the demon just because he lives in the underworld. 😒😒😒
Of all the mischaracterization, the bastardization of Hades hurts the most for me.

It's wild that people are trying to pretend the movies are good purely because they despise that they made Annabeth black.
I honestly don’t care if Annabeth is black or whatever. The TV Shows is just way more loyale to the book compared to that piece of crap of a movie.

This is going to be amazing you are going to hate this so much
Hey it’s ok, most of us hate the movies like me!
I honestly think that the reason people hate the movies is because there too original. But in my opinion: if the movies were their own thing then people might like it, but personally to me, as someone who saw the movies as a kid with my cousin, read the books with my mom, rewatched the movies with my mom, watched the show with my mom, and stopped to think about it: they're Not GOD AWFUL, but they're too original and I think thats why people hate the movies.
(Edit): now that I think about again, to shorten my comment I'll just say that: the movies ARE GOOD, it's just the plots that people don't like.
I’m a book reader and the problem with the movies is that they are really bad to watch. They feel rushed, CGI is terrible for a 2010ish movie.
Also in the second movie, we see the “Sea of Monsters” for like a couple of SECONDS.
@@riot9179 well ok you got a point. But still. 😕
Is it a school night? Yes. Am I watching this anyways? Y e s.
Hahahahah I dont understand why Luke come back fully formed after kronos ate him wtf😂😂
The best part of this video was Ash referencing dead meat, cuz I guess this is kind of a horror movie from a certain point of view, now let's get to the numbers of how many brain cells ash lost
okay wait, did you unknowingly reference the sunken place? bc the mom in this movie is the mom in get out!! 👀
Can you upload a video of the Lotus Casino scene where you say Annabeth's lines? I would enjoy that!
i hope u end up visiting the new show. everything u complained about in this is fixed in the show it’s really funny 💀
You know what I just realized? Was Nancy even in this movie at all? She wasn’t a big character, but in the beginning she was pretty big
Please do a reenactment of the Lotus Casino scene ❤
