Before we can dive into the Disney+ series, Micah & I must first endure the original movies based on the Percy Jackson book series. Join us on this young adult adventure as we encounter Greek gods such as Zeus, Poseidon, and David in this vaguely enjoyable attempt to repeat the success of Harry Potter!
Plot (via Wiki):
In The Lightning Thief, Zeus accuses Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman), the demigod son of Poseidon, of stealing his master lightning bolt. Percy, initially unaware of his identity, must return the bolt to Mount Olympus within two weeks to avoid war among the gods. Percy, a 16-year-old with dyslexia and ADHD, is attacked by a Fury disguised as his teacher and embarks on a journey to Camp Half-Blood, a hidden camp for demigods. Alongside his protector Grover (Brandon T. Jackson) and fellow demigod Annabeth (Alexandra Daddario), Percy discovers his powers, heritage, and embarks on a quest to the Underworld to rescue his abducted mother.
Percy, armed with a magical sword and aided by allies, decapitates Medusa, retrieves pearls from various locations, and races against time to prevent a war among the gods. In the Underworld, Percy confronts Hades, who reveals that Luke, a fellow demigod, was the true thief. A battle ensues, and Percy ultimately defeats Luke, returns the lightning bolt to Zeus, and reconciles with his father Poseidon. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover continue their training at Camp Half-Blood after averting the impending conflict among the gods.
In Sea of Monsters, Percy Jackson, supported by his friends Annabeth and Grover, faces challenges at Camp Half-Blood. Thalia, sacrificed and turned into a protective tree, is poisoned by Luke, threatening the camp's safety. A prophecy suggests Percy may save or destroy Olympus. Annabeth and Grover propose a quest for the Golden Fleece to heal Thalia's tree. Despite Mr. D choosing Clarisse for the quest, Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and Tyson embark on their own. They learn of Luke's plan to revive Kronos and destroy Olympus using the Fleece.
After a series of challenges, including facing Charybdis and rescuing Grover from Polyphemus's lair, Percy confronts Luke. In a battle, Tyson saves Percy, revealing his status as Poseidon's son. Kronos is defeated, with Luke consumed, and Annabeth dies but is resurrected by the Fleece. Clarisse places the Fleece on Thalia's tree, reviving Thalia and preserving the camp's safety. Percy realizes Thalia, a child of Zeus, may be the one referred to in the Olympus prophecy.

Fun fact; the author of the books hated the movie so much that he posted the letter that he sent to the studios on his blog. He begged the studio to fix the script, even offering to rewrite the entire thing himself for free. He basically had no involvement with the movies which is why he's on of the main producers on the new show
that is rough
Funny that the show is even worse than the movies lol
@@drstrangelove307Bold, comically wrong take.
@@MolemanSAno, strange is correct. The series is not even funny bad it’s just horrible. That fight against ares lmfao just no.
Awful tv series dude lol@MolemanSA
I worked on the 2nd Percy Jackson film as one of the demigods... I was also 1 of the 6 out of 200 hired actors who actually read the books and knew what was going on. That production was a fever dream
jesus
YOU GOTTA TELL US MORE
No, I don't think Jesus is a Greek god @@PrettyMuchIt
@@TheOther-Dude Constantine would like to politely disagree 😇
@@apetit8687 what part do you want to know more about? Maybe how Stanley Tucci literally didn't give a flying F and we wrapped at 3 am instead of 8pm cause he kept forgetting his lines?
Or my wonderful time being right next to Anthony steward head, (Giles from Buffy) and he spoiled his death scene for Merlin cause I was still on season 4 and they were already done season 7. Only an actor can enthusiastically talk about a scene they have never seen while raging on the inside
So iconic of them to use the iPod case to look at Medusa in the reflection; it’s sooo 2010 that it hurts
Unrealistic that the ipod case wasn't scuffed to hell though. :p
Or it’s just product placement
So basically as dated as the original books?
It's okay cause that time was peak
"Move him to the camp."
"Oh, I don't like that."
when you ask "Was this in the book." every time the answer in no for the movies
Well the part about the mist was... Just in a different way
well, the mist is, just different
Imagine if in the Harry Potter movies, they make Hogwarts a college so they could age up the kids. Hermione is described as the smartest girl in the school but she never does anything to show that. They make Ron into some confident ladies man with bad jokes. They don’t have Snape or Draco in the first movie. Quarrell is actually working by himself and Voldemort isn’t even mentioned in the film. They take a small plot point of the first book and decide to revolve the whole movie around it.
In the sequel, they try to shoe horn in Draco and Snape like they have always been here. Same thing with Voldemort. Voldemort comes back during the second movie and instead of the special power Harry has being the love he has for his friends, he instead has a very special wand that can kill Voldemort. Why? No reason. It just can. Harry kills Voldemort, in the second movie, and the movie ends with sequel bait like there are any stakes left. Harry already beat Voldemort. Very easily too.
That’s basically what the Percy Jackson movies are
This is so hilarous. LMFAOOO
Yeah that about sums it up. If you know nothing about the books, the first movie is passable, but the second one really just goes so off the rails it’s not enjoyable for anyone
DUDEE you framed it perfectly
Thank God that didn't happen.
Beautifully accurate comparison 😂😂😂
Eric's ironclad certainty that the statue of David has ANYTHING to do with Greece is admirable if nothing else.
ironclad comment
@@narwhalboss5226 ironclad ironclad
well actually ☝️🤓 Michelangelo was likely inspired by Doryphoros, a Classical Greek sculpture, when making David
fun fact: the author of the books hates these movies so much that he's publicly released emails he wrote to the studio asking them in no uncertain terms to reconsider the decisions they were making during production
jesus
And then he produced a garbage fire of a series
@logandelaharpe6362 Yeah somehow these movies ended up being more enjoyable anyway. It sucks, I grew up reading these books and they're 2 for 2 on bad onscreen adaptations. Lol
Speaking for book fans, we don’t hate the casino scene. In fact, it’s the only part we love!
Haven’t seen the movies in years, but I remember thoroughly liking the first movie and thoroughly hating the second
vouch
"Love"
As someone who didn't read the books, I thought the first movie was overall decent.
Speak for yourself. This ruined my childhood. Was a big “ 🖕 grow up nerd”
“Who’s the Greek god of gaming?” “Ninja” made me laugh so hard 🤣
If they said youtube then it would have to be markiplier
“directed by indigenous peoples day, thank you” is an underrated joke
We truly feel seen on this channel 🪶🦅
Poor Chris Columbus, he also Directed Harry Potter, which is amazing. Unfortunately this wasn't.
lmfao
@@chinito398Potter isn't good but it isn't his fault. JK Rowling is just a holoucaust denying biggot and a plagerizer with less than zero immagination.
@@chinito398 I keep wondering how he did great with the two Potter films he made and how he fucked up the Percy Jackson movies. Like, what happened?
"The world you know is not universal" that genuinely made me pause the video and laugh then cry,
What does it mean for me then if I understood exactly what Eric was talking about? 😂😂
It means we live in Eric's world 😌@EpicAngelzz
i JUST got to this part, and i was so taken aback, i had to go to the comments and do the same thing
Universal…… Studios?
I knew it though!
I will always remember The Lightning Thief being the last movie I watched in the theatres with my dad before he died. I hated it, he thought it was alright.
Damn.
I had the same experience, only difference is the movie we saw was Ender's Game.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
@@susanritchie2394And I’m so sorry for yours, as well
I'm sorry for your loss.
I honest to God almost burst into tears laughing when Micah said "he's about to sing 'This is Me'" about the cyclops, the PMI universe is so rich.
I feel so validated, my strongest opinion on these movies is that they ooze black eyed peas
I gotta feeling is about to start playing at any moment
this is such a vivid statement
Thank you for abstractly explaining what annoyed me SO MUCH about these movies as a kid
a movie being black eyed peas coded is just every early 2010s kids movie.
Why does this genuinely make so much sense
And just like that one M. Night Shyamalan movie adaptation we don't talk about, us fans also don't recognize these movies for the same reasons lol
ah, i see...
wrong
Are you taking about something that came in 2010 now being made into a show on Netflix
@@masonpierce3086The Lightning Thief is older than you, buddy
@@manbatmiso No it isn't buddy. Love how you racists always resort to stupid child insult because you can't deny your racism.
"borderline unwatchable" is so accurate im dead
“Uh yeah. I’m thinkin I’m the son of Poseidon” 😂😂😂😂😂
As a book fan who doesn't mind shitty films, i loved the first and haven't even seen the second one fully and probably never will. But i do declare that the casino scene, whether people hate the movie or not, is the best scene hands down
I have a confession. This movie came out when I was in middle school and we were learning about Greek Myths at this time. I had ZERO idea about the books (I read them later thus being why I regret my actions) but I thought Logan Lerman was hot so I convinced my teachers to take the whole seventh grade class to see this movie. I apologize to NO ONE I HATE ALL OF YOU!!! Great commentary track!
😭😭😭
Logan ate but I think we can all agree on that. However, Walker kinda cooked him cuz that kid be saying a million words with his eyes alone. It’s insane
I love Logan as Percy!!! He just needed to be like… much younger 😂😅
Any of the kids who actually read the books were probably melting in their seat
The John Mulaney impression was too good 😂
So its not touched on in the movie at all but the reason the big 3 "Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades" can't have any more kids is because last time they did WWII happened. Hades' sons were all the Axis powers leaders and Zeus' and Poseidon's were the Allied leaders. This is 100% something that is said in the Books.
Oh… unfortunate choice in partners. O-0
That's fucking wild
@@mechanomics2649 it gets more wild cause it wasn't even Hades that was their father, well it was. But he was in his Pluto the Roman god of death form at the time and Pluto is described as looking a lot like Hitler, by a character.
@@wil2560nah Hades's first description in the LT likened him to Hitler (but also Napoleon so it was a little less specific)
@@ianbrudnakvoss3126 that's Hades though. I'm pretty sure in Son of Neptune in the Heroes of Olympus series when he's Pluto he's likened to Hitler. Just double checked it was on Son of Neptune, and it's Hazel who says Pluto looks similar to Hitler. However it seems Rick Riordan has now said Hitler is in no certain terms a Demigod. So just a coincidence it seems.
“Luke or Will” crazy mixup to make if you’ve read the books 💀
😂😭🤣😭
Fr will going crazy rn 🤣
Will Solace: ?????
One's a psycho killer, the other dates a borderline psycho killer
Lmao true
I don’t like Hollywood productions that hire adult actors to play high school ages. They never look those ages and it creeps me out to see adults being youths. Spend three times the money and use an age-accurate cast.
at least they got that right in the disney+ series!
Growing up I used to think "Americans look old way faster than New Zealand kids"
🍫🌧
Wasnt he 17 when he played this?
@@CheerUp2 i wasnt expecting this to be true but yeah 17 for filming
I love when Chiron is explaining the big 3 in the museum and for Zeus and Poseidon the camera pans to sculptures of them but for Hades there's just a small painting on a pot. Poor dolt
That honestly feels so fitting given his character in the books
why does hollywood keep giving these things to directors that refuse to read the source material? Like what's that about?
Worst part is, Rick (the author) was never included in the entirety of the process of both movies. He hates these movies and doesn’t like to acknowledge them.
I’ve thought about this a lot and usually money comes first before logic so we get Interference all over the place
Pretty funny that hell is located in Hollywood as in the movie
They think "we're making a movie" instead of "we're adapting this into a movie"
I cannot tell you how much I love this and eric sounding like he's taking his last wheezing breath everytime he laughs
"the mist" is a thing in the books but it is NOT a bottle of perfume 😭 if i remember correctly it's just sort of a thing that happens automatically to explain why mortals can't see all the magic shit going on, it's almost exactly the same mechanic as the one in Harry Potter. They also crammed the final 4 books into the second movie, which is partially why it's so much worse than the first but they also just completely phoned it in.
HP really got lucky having a good adaptation the first try cause we got stuck with this nonsense for over 10 years
Of all the bad adaptions I’d like to point out that Peter Jackson here was still a Demi-god, Ong was still the Avatar, and white goku was still a monkey. Artemis fowl on the other hand was not a criminal and it angers me so much that they fucked that up
yuuup
Eragon fans where literally everything was wrong 💀
@@Fluffy6555 was Eragon still a dragon rider tho
Peter Jackson 😭
Peter Jackson is killing me, that’s what I’m calling this adaptation now 😭
I'm convinced if they'd waited for Logan Lerman's hair to grow back the sequel would have worked.
AMEN
As someone with aspergers that joke KILLED me 😂
Literally was scrolling thru the comment section to find another who relates 😭
The mist automatically covers tysons eyes
percy looks at tysons feet for an entire portion of the entire book
I understood the Confederate Ghosts reference, don't worry Eric
PHEW
i love how he asked "are the childeren real" as if they rest of the greek gods and mosnters are true stories😂
Eric saying "this has gotta be the part the fans like the least" at the sequence most fans seemed to enjoy the most (Vegas) is a prime PMI interaction
Mr Bruner turning out to be Achilles would’ve been the sickest plot twist and just the idea of it blows the centaur thing out of the water.
Well Chiron is a real figure in mythology who trained heroes including Achilles
@@purplebunn It’s logical, albeit predictable to those who know Greek myth.
@@loganhurley4764 Which is why it's the reality and not Achilles 💀
"You have to understand that the world you know isn't universal" really resonated with me for some reason
The John Mulaney impression took me so off guard holy shit LOL
I was drinking something and so nearly spit it out at that scene 😂
edward bulwer lytton wrote the line "the pen is mightier than the sword" for a play published 185 years ago
“The confederate ghosts! These are Hardin Scott’s dreams in After!”
Never change, Eric
Eric: Dude Sea of Monsters sucks
"Polyphemus lives in an *amusement park* "
Eric: Yeah, I'm thinking this movie's a 10/10
💯
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: Alexandra Daddario does her best acting while playing completely unhinged and violent women, because her eyes really do sell that.
This role? Not well suited. At all. A very bad casting call tbh.
Its because in the first movie they gave her clarris personality she is Annabeth in name only then they back tracked in the second movie gave her the blonde hair and Annabeths wisdom sort of
I truly think she's too pretty in the role. If Annabeth really looked like that she'd get a different type of attention from people, but in the books she kind of commands a room with her intellect and authoritativeness
but she's pretty!
Not to mention they look like siblings in tlt 💀
@@ot7biasedmashupsYeah this is my biggest problem, it's the way they both have the same shade of hair and the same shade of blue eyes and the same exact heavy eyebrows
The casino is the most iconic scene. Imagine tripping balls in Vegas with your buds while poker face plays in the background!!!
Percy Jackson was so popular in my middle school that we organized an out of school trip, with most of the kids and one of our teachers who was a big fan of the books. We all made Camp Half-Blood shirts and were super excited about it.
The disappointment across the whole theater was palpable. Like, the amount of stuff they changed, added, or ignored was wild to me, especially since the last book in the series had come out by this point. I'm not gonna bore you with everything they changed just know that Percy Jackson fans tend to hate both of these films
As a long time book fan, the most frustrating part about the TERRIBLE second movie is that they fucked up and skipped so many scenes, important moments and characters in the FIRST MOVIE and tried to force in the “correct” changes. Spoilers ahead!!
Spoilers coming now:
-Clarisse is a major character that should’ve been in the first movie but they decided to take her character completely out and blend it with Annabeth which is why she was kinda extra bitchy. The second book NEEDS Clarisse and she becomes a main character in it.
-Tyson and Percy are supposed to be half brothers but Tyson is half monster and half god (these types of monsters have their own category). That’s why everyone was treating him weirdly in the beginning and throughout the movie.
-Tyson and Percy’s brotherly bond is explored in the book and actually so IMPORTANT in later books but the movie butchered that.
-Ares the god of War is a main antagonist in the first movie and causes problems for Percy. Which is explored more in the second book because Clarisse is the DAUGHTER of ARES.
-THE MIST ISN’T A DAMN SPRAY BOTTLE AND THE WRITERS FOR THE MOVIE MADE IT STUPID!! The mist is a supernatural force controlled by the goddess Hecate that twists a mortal's sight from seeing monsters, gods, Titans, and other supernatural occurrences by replacing them with things the mortal mind knows about and can comprehend. (Riordan Wiki)
Those are the main issues that come to mind for the second movie. That makes it so unbearable to watch. I could forgive the first movie as a mistake but for them to make the second movie with the intention to continue the series had me seeing red as a teenager. The tv series is already a bajillion times better and I haven’t finished it yet.
You're gonna have to remind me what Tyson did after the 2nd book, cause I swear he was useless
@@Fluffy6555 I wouldn’t say he’s useless but his role is minor in the third and fourth book. I know in the third book there’s drama with him being at camp because he’s half monster and that causes tension within the camp. That is the easiest way I can explain that without ruining it for new people lol.
In the fourth book I believe he still has a smaller role but he does help with the quest in a big way. And then it’s all hands on deck for the fifth book lol. Everybody and they mama’s were being brought out for that wonderful book. (If you get what I mean with the special mom appearance then you’re a real one 🥹🫶🏽)
@@Dij7897everyone and their mommas sandwiches comin out 🫡
O
@kokopium8003 thank you for explaining this!! I didn’t want to talk too much about Tyson because I was worried about spoiling him in the rest of the books. But you explained this perfectly!!
I loved Tyson in the books! And watching him and Percy become good friends and brothers made my heart melt 😭 I think he’s a great supporting character in the rest of the series.
I agree that adding in new characters in each book can be confusing but I also liked it because (from what I can remember at least) none of them were useless and came back into the plot one way or another. It does make it harder if you don’t intend on reading the other books in the spin off series (highly recommend because they’re FUCKING FANTASTIC) then you’ll for sure get that feeling of “okay…. Why were they so important if they’re gone now??”
Tyson was disrespected in the movie and I can’t forgive that. I’m praying that if they stick with Rick’s plan, each season will represent each book in order to let the characters breathe and explore the plots better 🙏🏽
This being dropped the day the season finale of the show airs is divine timing
Especially since people are posting the movie was better than the show. Haha.
youd be pleased to know that the can of mist isnt in the books, while there is a magical effect called the mist that makes mythical creatures and powers look normal, they actually did give tyson big visor sun glasses
PHEW
The amount of whiplash I got upon hearing the words "Cirque Du Freak." I loved the book/manga series so much and the movie....just...it was there. But seeing Josh Hutcherson as Steve was kinda funny.
Wait...theres a Cirque du Freak *MANGA*?
'Frantic keyboard clacking and the sound of a wallet opening'
oh my gosh, I had easier access to the manga than the books that it's all I think about when I think about the Darren Shan saga. I spent a long time wishing Demonata also got a manga because I really wanted to see some horrifying visuals. Alas, it's a blessing to have a manga for Cirque du Freak's at all
Eric screaming about Harden in After is fucking incredible
"Medusas greatest weakness, someone with Asperger's" 😂 bro im dead
I loved you co-host on this one. The others are fun too but this guy matches your energy perfectly. Great video as always.
15:17 in the books, “the mist” is the veil existing between the gods and the human world, so regular people aren’t able to see monsters or any kind of magic that the demigods can. idk why they decided the spray bottle was the best way to convey that in the movie lol
“I feel like fans hate this part” the casino being the best and most important part of the movie
One of the biggest issues of the second one (other than the fact that it was an obvious cash grab) was the fact that they took the main villain of a 5 book series (Chronos) and made him the big bad of the second movie, so they literally had no choice but to end it on the second one.
The first one was done with a half-finished script, and considering how different different versions of myths could be, could remotely be a different telling.
Riordan didn't have anything to do with the movies. He's directly involved in the Disney+ series (which some people hate because they change some of the characters' appearances).
12:18 i preferred the reveal in the book. After the quest is over and the story feesl like its done, luke invites percy out to practice in the camps forest. He and percy have some deep talk, and then he reveals how he is working with the lord of titans, and lets a scorpion attack Percy. It was done so quick and fast it gave ne whiplash as i read it
15:42 the weirdest part about the second book, is that percy isn't even given the quest, he practically highjacks it as the others leave
Eric, just hearing you mention Cirque du Freak warms my heart. Those books were such a big part of my childhood and I have never met someone who even knows what I’m talking about when I mention it. You make me feel seen 😢
He talks about them ALL the time. He truly loves that series too
“This is a pen!” And the casino scene are the only good things the movie gave us (as a book fan)
As a book fan when I watched the first movie I thought "How could this be any worse?" And then the second movie said, "this is how"
Eric thinking the casino scene wasnt well received by fans and not realizing it was in fact The PEAK of the movie is hilarious
Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief holds a very special place in my heart. It's the first time I ever walked out of a movie cause it sucked so bad.
I never realized that Percy Jackson and the lightning thief beginning was so visually dark. I had to put on my brightness for once lol ❤
Sammme
The worst part of this is that Pierce Brosnan AND UMA FUCKING THURMAN ARE IN THE FIRST MOVIE
plot twist everyone at camp is staring at the cyclops because of his hair and not his eye
As someone that has been born and raised in the Los Angeles area, can confirm Burbank is literal hell 💀
I hope every Percy Jackson fan adopts the term “Perce-head” now
I hate how the "Hades = Lucifer" trend started when Disney made Hades the bad guy. Then Hollywood saw that idea and thought "Hades is a bad guy cuz he lives in a world similar to that of hell". YOU IDIOTS!! HADES AND LUCIFER ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ENTITIES THAT LIVE IN COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DOMAINS. Underworld has 3 sections; one of the blessed, one for the in-between and one for the wicked (Tartarus). Hell on the other hand is a place for those that disrespected God's will and it's full of suffering and torment. Plus, Hades is just doing his job, keeping the souls of the Underworld in check as they head for the sections they were signed to go (He's kinda like Death but in a Godly manner) but Lucifer on the other hand, he does not care about the souls they go down there for he enjoys their suffering and torment.
just finished bawling my eyes out to your station eleven tracks so i needed this
😭
OMG that was such a rough one to get through! That was my third viewing and the emotions hit just as hard, maybe even harder with his reaction!
I was watching when I was 15 and I’m 26 now. So glad to still see you around
Weirdly enough, the Lotus Hotel/Poker Face scene is the one where people who despise the movie will throw up their hands and go "well fuck it, this is so off the wall, at least this bit is fun by going full drug trip."
"for all we know that was like a kid at the camp that was half pig"....well that might have actually been a reference to the Greek Odyssey with Cercei who turned a bunch of sailors, villagers and soldiers into pigs, some are eaten, some escape the fate.
in the books the final boss of the series is built up through 5 books in the movies they use the final boss in the second movie and then leave you on a cliff hanger
Ngl when I was younger I thought Logan Lerman, Dylan O'Brien, Jeremy Shada, Josh Hutcherson, and Aaron Taylor Johnson were all the same person.
Frankenstein’s Monster referenced.
Glad to see Eric is still thinking about C.U.M.
always got C.U.M. on the mind
"Monstrel show". Round of applause for that, Eric! 😂
as a bilingual person with dyslexia, i think the greek thing is pretty possible
Eric and I have always been kindred souls when it comes to Cirque du Freak. It deserved the Harry Potter treatment.
100000%
I had a moment of panic thinking something happened in recent months and I was completely unaware. Glad to know we were just talking about the Peter Johnson movies. Also the only thing uncle Rick approves of from this movie is the end scene with smelly Gabe and the medusa head
Poker face at the lotus casino is actually everyone’s favorite scene lmao
I'm so sad they didn't have the part where we meet Nathan Fillion in it
why was micah’s john mulaney impression so good LOL
unfortunately, the casino scene was the movies last hail mary
"look out cause here EYE come" never change Eric lol
That John mulaney impression was spot on
I was such a Percy Jackson kid as a child that I now study classics at Oxford lmao, the books literally changed the trajectory of my life and I was SO angry about these films as a kid
The mist is in the book….but not like that lmao. “The mist” refers to a magical power that shrouds mortals from being able to perceive monsters. It’s not a physical thing. Some Demigods are able to use the mist to warp mortals vision. So it’s not like they need to spray him with “the mist” the mist just kinda does its thing by itself
the world you know isn't universal goes hard af
When the guy comes in to yell at the teacher creature, it felt like a DnD campaign. Also the satyr fitting goat legs into a human leg disguise is just something best not thought too closely about. Even more DnD to disguise yourself as a different creature to live in other worlds.
6:11 I don’t know if I’ve ever laughed as hard as I did at Micah’s reverse piss your pants noises
My mouth fell open at the confederate soldier part! I felt your excitement in that reoccurring reference. 😂
THE FASTEST I HAVE EVER CLICKED ON A PMI VIDEO BLESS YOU ERIC 😭❤️
Edit: thanks for the Burbank shoutout yeah it’s hell 🥲
Percy Jackson is just a mix of Harry Potter, Hunger Games and X-men
WAIT THIS VIDEO IS THE FIRST TIME i PUT TOGETHER NOCTURNALLY/KNOCKTURN ALLEY why
🤯
I need y'all to know about the musical adaptation The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical. The full album is on Spotify and UA-cam and it's honestly such a good adaptation of the first book and the music is so good.
0:36 Honestly most of the greek statues have really little dongs. Probably reflecting the region's average at that time. I suspect the one your are referring to was one of Heracles. Actually, a god known for incredible dongage is Pan, god of the wilds. Lots of his statues and has serious heft in the right places
Actually, big ding dong was a sign of being a brute or a small-minded person will you so that size was actually the peak of mans parts, as strange as that is compared to today's standards, so no that was not the average size back then it was just the size you would want to havw back then 😅
I read all the books as they came out and still can't fathom how BAD EVERYTHING IS.
Kronos doesn't even get resurrected unti the later books either 4 or 5 and even then he's not some manifested demon he literally inhabits Lukes body. But hey at least they tied in Tallia at the end for that imaginary third movie.
“Fans probably hate this part” (the best part of the movie)
as a certified perce head, yes we hate these movies
I think they knew there wasn’t gonna be a third movie so they tried to combine elements of multiple books in the second film and it just doesn’t work because they miss so much trying to rush it. I’m glad they’re doing a tv show for the next generation, I hope it does better 😅
Btw In Greek Myth Hermes and Athena were born from Zeus so they would be siblings. Which would make Anabeth and Luke cousins….Anabeth likes Luke…
Gosh not that cyclops prediction during the Medusa scene
