pleaaase?
Okay hear me out here.
The Percy Jackson movies are good.
Now I do have an explanation for this.
They’re good - ignoring the books. Like, if you take them away from being the stories of the books.
Like how they do Grover! I love Grover in the movies so much. I can’t lie, in the first movie, with the Hydra I think it was, all I could think of was that “OH SHIT! OH SHIT!” meme because that is so something Grover would do.
Now, I’ve just been watching them, I’m just starting Sea of Monsters right now, as I can’t wait for the series and can’t read the books right now, and I needed SOMETHING. I can’t really remember the movie too well, so I’m mainly talking about Lightning Thief in this post.
Just one thing that REALLY annoys me, regardless of the story, is when Percy and Luke are fighting, and Percy is about to be beat, so he uses the water from the water thingies to attack Luke.
That could have KILLED Luke, he was holding the embodiment of fucking lightning. Electrified water is very very dangerous, could have very easily killed Luke. Percy was being extremely reckless.
Also just the things that they miss out, like the Laestrygonians at the start of Sea of Monsters and Clarisse in Lightning Thief, and Tantalus in Sea of Monsters again. All these little things, would make it so much better. I understand that they didn’t have the time as it’s a movie, but at least Tantalus would have added to the movie so much if done well.
(Also random side note, I always imagined Clarisse as rather bulky, not a skinny little thing like in the movies.)
As amazing as the series looks, and it does look amazing, I think they should re-make the movies too. I don’t even care if they aren’t completely book accurate at this point, just make them a little bit better here and there, and they’d be amazing.
Thank you for your time.

PLS my computer has led lights attached that turn on whenever it turns on and a rainbow keyboard and mouse and sometimes it just turns on in the night and it’s SO BRIGHT
My laptop ran an update while I was sleeping last night which would've been fine except that the fan pad it sits on has rgb lights that fire up whenever the the computer first powers on, so in the middle of the night my computer finished its restart sequence and this happened:

All of the Palestinians that I've been speaking to on Tumblr, whose posts we've reblogged, who are asking for donations, this is what they're living right now:
This is Rafah, the 'safe zone' they were displaced to.
