      Ive seen some channels like one called "the anti-woke reviewer" complain about how the cast is bad and how they made a mistake making Annabeth black and I mean you can tell by their username why they would say dumb stuff like that. And whats worse is they post videos hating on the show to make rage bait and get their like minded followers some of them being fans of the book who hate the cast. Ive seen them getting so triggered from this show its kind of funny especially when everybody else loves the show.

    I think Walker is pretty perfect for the role, as are several others, but I as good as I think this show is, there are so disappointments about it that I don't like- Soem of the wierd changes to the scenes, some cutting of certain events, and a few casting choices I really don't like. But beyond that, it's a good show.

    Annabeth is doing fine as an overall, but it is alittle offputting to see a blonde hair blue/gray eyed book character be portrayed by her. Aside from that im happy with the way shes playing annabeth well. all those years of reading the books i had a pretty solid idea of how i imagined Annabeth looking off descriptions in the novels

      Well said. Leah can't help not looking like Annabeth. So it's nothing against her. But we all had an image of Annabeth in our heads. And I am always scared they will use a race-swap as an opportunity to politicize a narrative.

      Yep. Most book authors involved with film adaptations will concede teeny changes, like eye color, but what I don't like about Rick's choice is that he took the time to create appearances for them in the books, and then he tells us "appearance doesn't matter". He's acting like it's our fault for reading his books and believing him when he described his characters. What gremlins we are to think the characters from his books should look like how he said they looked in his books 🙄. It's unprofessional at the very least.

Its unprofessional because the book author both wrote the book character descriptions and is also making the show, which makes his characters shape-shifters since they differ. Both versions are canonically correct, but they differ. Wtf are we supposed to do with that? Unprofessional. Plain and simple.

    Granted the book described Percy as having black hair, I appreciated the change. Walker did a great job. Not a perfect adaptation, but I enjoyed it. As much as I liked Finn Wolfhard in It, Ghostbusters, and Stranger Things, and more independent movies, I think being in this would have been too many big roles. He would probably have been good in it, but too recognizable from his other roles. Still, I could be wrong, but that is my initial thought.
