turkey dinosaur extinction event part 2: finish him!!
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.

“It was a logical ruse!”

Mic has vocal stims and that's what his whistling, "YEAAAHHH" and peppered english phrases are. But when he was 24 he accidentally picked up a vocal stim that was a perfect impression of Aizawa's "logical ruse" line and it scared the shit out of some other heroes when he first started doing it because they thought Eraserhead was just.

i got ben and jerrys fudge brownie instead and i ran into a little girl and she just looked at me and i waved and walked away as she was blocking the way and she started crying
also bens and jerrys is cheaper with better flavours, and i also got a crème egg as it was cheaper :)

i feel like there’s a metaphor somewhere here.
