The cast is actually the right age. As the seasons goes on, it's gonna awesome to see Percy and other demigods grow up and develop. After all, It is a coming-of-age story to its core.
They changed some stuff but overall it's pretty accurate so I love this episode.
I'm just so happy they kept all the important scenes like the opening monologue being the first page of the book.
Disney butchered this masterpiece…🤦
Horrible show
We cannot fail to mention how the mother was portrayed... In the movie it looked like a victim and here in the series, a smart woman who has that despicable man in her hand.
I think I heard somewhere that in future episodes were gonna have flashbacks of younger Percy seeing how badly Gbe treated Sally. So it might be that she got stronger so her son wouldn't have to witnesses that anymore
@@arianaking3009that makes sense because if I remember correctly in the book Percy realized Gabe hits his mom when he’s not around. So sally for sure didn’t want Percy seeing all that
I don't like that, actually. [SPOILER ALERT]
She literally kills him in the end. If she's not a victim, then that's not justified.
@@erikperhs_ to be fair he might be shown to be as bad as he is in the book yet but he still controls where she goes by letting her use HIS car and he checks who she’s talking too by answering her phone. He also seemed ok with Percy getting expelled for attacking someone so who knows if that’s a hint that he’s ok with Percy doing something that he himself would do/has done. Remember Percy only realizes Gabe hits his mom until after his quest
Yeah if they do this then they may not do the whole Medusa head thing. I think that was like the funniest joke in the book. Just how sassy Percy was and how like he stood up and kinda made a fool out of the gods
Grover was always like this, I’m so glad they did this because it leaves room for development like in the books.
My favorite things about these adaptations are the details you can notice as a fan of the original material. Example: In the book, Sally works for a stars-and-stripes themed candy store, and Gabe had an argument with her one time about whether or not blue food exists, so she made it a point from then on to make all of Percy’s birthday cakes and food-related gifts blue. In the show, she gives Percy blue candy as a present, and just seeing that brought this indescribably dorky smile to my face.
some people are saying gabe isnt mean enough here, but i disagree. you dont have to be violently abusive or a mustache twirling villain to still be a shitty person
agreed, but there was no point where it felt like he was a danger to Percy or his mom. He's not really shown as abusive, just a freeloading loser.
@@blueskybelyr And that will definitely matter at the end of the book/season. One deserves what happens, the other, eh, not quite there...
@@blueskybelyr I can't say this from experience, but apparently it's accurate to real abusive people, it's not 100 percent all the time, most children don't know how bad it is until later.
@@philipgood5041 okay but this isn't a deep dive into the psychology of abusers. It's a kid's show where the 'evil stepdad' character has like 6 minutes of screentime. So far the character does not come across as threatening, just annoying. Percy's mom shut up his complaining in 10 seconds flat.
@@blueskybelyr it isn't the end of his scenes, this is only the first episode. We have yet to see him highjack the house, call Percy a criminal, threaten to hit sally or anything like that
lol nerfed?? In the book Grover literally fainted and had to be carried by Percy. At least he stayed conscious here.
The whole thing about Grover is that he tries his best but he's still shitty at his job 😂
@@erikperhs_ He's very endearing lol
I love that they kept the humor. The humor is like, one of the most iconic things from the books for me and I was so scared that they were gonna make it too serious or dark and I’m so glad that they kept the humor
Too Goofy? Nah, you just let that inner child die. All those moments of "I don't remember that in the books." Nah, it's there. The movies are shite. You're better off forgetting everything you know from them. They are nothing like the actual source material
I HAVE to point out how accurate they were when they used a common pen for Riptide. It is LITERALLY how Percy describes it in the books "maybe cost 90 cents at the store"
That kind of attention to detail is amazing, especially since I totally forgot about that and was envisioning a fountain pen, lol. Love your reaction!!!
And can we just say, SALLY JACKSON = BADASS
walker scobell is currently 14, but they filmed when he was 13!
percy jackson is 12 in the first season and first book
He’s perfect
People saying Gabe should be more outwardly abusive clearly haven't read the books in a while. Percy had NO IDEA that his mom is being physically abused until the end of the book, and he's not an idiot, so clearly Gabe was at least trying to keep up appearances when Percy was home (like 3 months of the year). Also abusive people usually don't broadcast the fact they're abusing someone to their family.
I’m 27 and very much enjoying the fact that the main character is 12, to me the age range reminds me of the first Harry Potter film. So it gives me nastalga there.
Percy Jackson books were actually very silly but also had its serious moments.
I wouldn’t call it silly rather a dark world covered with humor. When you look at it not from Percy’s pov it is pretty messed up.
Yeah, I watched both episodes and the humor is not there. It is almost taking itself too seriously, like how studios would try to ground properties in reality. I know we have "the normal world" vs "the magical world" but how it is visually presented doesn't sit right with me.@@Kbax3614
Dude Percy literally flossed midway through episode 2 - Blake
@@Kbax3614 that’s why I said it had some serious moments in it.
I actually didn't see it. LOL@@RaggedyPack
Rick riordan said walkers voice was perfect for percy
Percy is 12 in the first book his age is correct for the books. It wasn't done to appeal to kids these days, it was because that's how old the character is. Logan Lerman played a 16 year old Percy because Hollywood made the terrible decision to age him up so they could do the romance sooner. I love Logan. But not as Percy when he first starts out. He's perfect for an older teenage Percy, like 16-18, the Percy we see in the second series. But not Percy for the first few books where he's a kid. It's not till the last book of the first series that he turns 16 so for the entire first series of books, Logan was too old to play Percy.
I loved the first two episodes. I’m looking forward to seeing your reaction to episode 2. The art during the credits reminds me of a Diego Rivera mural.
Has anyone noticed Sally saying she going to "Di Angelo's" for sandwiches?!?!?!?! 😭
👀
One thing to remember, Grover’s species ages a lot slower than humans. Although he’s 24, he has the mind of someone around Percy’s age.
Ain’t no way bro is complaining that the show is actually book accurate lmfao
right lmao, also I think they may be conflating the movies and books, which is understandable, but c'mon! Rick Riordan is actually working on this one, he HATED the movies and begged them not to release them as the script was, and even pointed out hating they aged up the characters (which, same)
igli only remembering the gabe detail is so funny idk why LMAO it's so random.
I’ve been a fan of the books for over a decade now. After this series being overlooked, mocked, and constantly being compared to Harry Potter, to see my fav reacting channels reacting to one of my favorite franchises and giving it the respect and love it deserved warms my heart.
If Fox didn’t botch the movies I think this series would be in the same tier as Harry Potter. But I’m glad now is it’s time to shine! - Blake
I think the second episode is great so keep watching guys and I hope it gets better. I need to reread the books. Even as an adult I think it’s a fun series to read.
I will definitely be doing a re read soon - Blake
A reminder for Blake, SPOILER!
The minotaur didn't kill Sally, she was transported to the underworld because Hades took her as a hostage
Grover is 24 but he age slower than demigods.
The first movie was completely different from the books. The only thing that was really from the books that they got right was the Casino hotel That they get stuck in And maybe Medusa. Besides that, there was nothing in the first movie that I could remember that was actually in the first book. And as I recall, they don't end up facing the Hydra until the sea of monsters. And they need a Clarissa's iron clad to blow it up if I Remember correctly. So far. I am living for this series. The first 2 episodes were great.
nah, they got the casino wrong in the movies too - the lotus flower cookies? Nah, it was the place itself that was addictive
💀 this show is show accurate im actually shocked lol
After reading the first book, I did watch the movie immediately and I agree to a certain point that the actor in the movie was good but I think that similar to HP, age does matter when it comes to casting for Percy Jackson.
I actually love seeing people who haven’t read the source material react to show adaptions! So I’m very excited for this!
Walker is Literally Percy
As a huge fan of the Riordan books im happy af with these two episodes
THEY WERE PERFECT
Especially the second epiosde i jus found the editing a lil goofy
The first movie changed too much as well. Just the fact that the actors were way too old for it to make sense to make 5 or more movies. This TV series seems to be so much better I'm really enjoying it so far.
Percy is 12yo. Walker was 13yo during filming.
And the books are extremely goofy. These are middle grade books.
right?? A mortal throwing a PLASTIC HAIRBRUSH at a TITAN is ridiculously iconic lmao
Dude on the left said he read the books and yet doesnt remember pivotal book scenes
"Are you saying there's gonna be a Percy Jackson Fortnite collab?" Maybe not officially, but earlier today I caught a Twitch stream of Walker Scobell and Brady Noon playing Fortnite together.
Almost 8 min in and be nice to Igli!! That was a cute thing to remember. I read the books too but it’s been sooooo long I forgot most of the details but this show is so much different than the first movie was.
Yay so happy you are covering this! ❤❤❤
interesting to see book readers and non book readers watch this!
Lol Disney doesn't lie about the date. It's just that Time Zones exist. 😂
Just found your channel, excited to watch this show along with y’all! Thanks for reacting to it!!
Still i think there are somethings that could lead to changes from the book a lot like
1.Sally is not portrayed as a victim like in the books and (2.) Gabe is shown as a better person than in the books... Makes her sacrifice less difficult in the eyes of the viewers.
3. Sally not teaching Percy how to defend against the minotaur
4. A good change but can we PLEASE take Sally saying "Not all monsters are bad" in a way of the show overshadowing Bob the Titan
4. "Not all monsters are bad" aka...TYSON!
@@arianaking3009 Oh YEAHHH I FORGOT THATS EVEN BETTER
@@arianaking3009 or also chiron, argus, grover n pretty much all th other satyrs n all th nymphs that are alw seen inside th camp. Now that i think hb it in th books some harpies 2, who are usually considered evil monsters, work in th camp kitchens
@@Gradestar10 The harpies DO threaten to eat Percy, if I remember correctly...
We should feel bad for monsters,they don't get an afterlife,they constantly respawn in a Hellhole.
9:49: Automaton
and the game is mythomagic :)
What a shame man the action and loss really picks up after the titans curse
Battle of the Labyrinth has great action and crazy moral conundrum
And OMFG THE LAST OLYMPIAN? so good man the siege of Manhattan so great
Let's go!! I'm so excited! I've read them and saw the two films which we know were subpar! I love Greek mythology too and these just upped it!! My bff even wrote her own version a book back in highschool and I read it!! ❤🎉
the first movie of percy from the get go they changed the main key factor of the story which is their age! i dont wanna spoil anything to those who havent read it but the age has something to do with the story! so the movie turning casts into 17 years old already killed the whole franchise
You don’t like the voice of the actor who plays Percy duuuuude he’s 12 lol of course his voice sounds like that. And don’t get me wrong I freaking love Logan Lerman but hey maybe if they would’ve grabbed Logan when he was 12 and then started Percy it’d be a better fit but again as much as we love Logan Percy’s character is 12 in the first book just like with Harry Potter it’s a coming of age we get to watch him grow up into this great young man.
Awesome reaction of my favorite episode of Percy Jackson And The Olympians!!!!!😊😊😊😊
The fornite comments are funny when you watch the second episode 😂
I just watched the first 3 episodes and oh man so good
Alright, I know this should be about this show, but I can't ignore the fact that Blake said, "oh, I forgot, none of you have seen the MCU." Bro... if you guys (my newly favorite reactors, mind you) react to the MCU (my favorite movies), I'd shit myself on the spot
I love the series it is so good
@Blake there are MANY more books I wonder if you read
Firestarter - Aztec/Maya mythos
Aru Shah - Indian mythos
Tristan Strong - African mythos
None of the above unfortunately. Who is the author? - Blake
YES
Oh so I’m older than you guys cuz I was a sophomore in high school when the first one came out. I thought you were all older than me. Lol And yeah I read all the books loved it and I was like oh shit this I think is better than Harry Potter and ik that’s blasphemous. lol I mean I even have a tattoo of the Slytherin snake. So but I was like oh my god this series is so fucking good. I was so pissed when they did the movies dirty. I was like this is literally neck and neck with Harry Potter. But I didn’t like comparing them cuz it hurt my heart but I’d say there’s way more action and adventure in this which makes this series so fun and keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time. Harry Potter is more dramatic and slower paced which is fine. It just depends on peoples preferences but I love them both sooooo much. So I hope they finally do this justice. I’m praying crossing my fingers. I’m also thinking of reading the whole series again. Cuz I own only some of the books. And I’ve only read Percy Jackson and Harry books all the way through only once. But I freaking love Greek&Roman Mythology too. And this made me fall even more so in love. ❤❤❤
I was obsessed with Harry Potter growing up, and then Percy Jackson came along and joined that place in my heart. Now, as an adult writer, I can confidently say the Percy Jackson series is far better written, but no shade to anyone who prefers the former. And hey, at least the author of PJ is a genuinely good and progressive guy, meanwhile JKR is.... despicable. Heartbreaking to find out, but makes sense in hindsight. PJO deserved SO much more attention and the movies killed that potential for mainstream audiences to get into the books. I'm so SO thrilled Rick gets to write/direct this show to finally make his story come alive in his vision :D
IM HERE

Walker is great.
It's only he's second or 3rd thing he's acted in.
I love how Blake nearly always manages to start every vid with a random 2 minute rant 😂😂
Its sort of my thing - Blake
I think I prefer to share my opinion as if I was the Lamb and the Wolf from "League of Legends", for creative purposes:
-Are you there dear Wolf ?
-I am, little Lamb. Which of the half-breed is our target this time ?
-How does the boy who attacked the monster look like ?
-Blond.
-That is the target.
-Doesn't look like much. He'll meet you. Boring prey !
-I lamment your disappointment dear Wolf. But neither Thanatos nor his sisters are meant to reap him. The void that is chaos will come for this version of the Pantheon too. His soul is not meant to be collected by them, otherwise he falls with everyone else.
-...I hope at least the son of the lesser one is more entertaining !
-Those who resist their Fates usually are dear Wolf.
20:27 That's your problem then because that's exactly what happened in the book.
Just found you guys and already hooked. But why is Zlatan Ibrahimovich doing a Percy Jackson reaction?😂
The resemblance is uncanny 😂 -Corey
Vem ska vara Zlatan här? 😅
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
22:43 I agree! I personally do think it’s a bit childish, and if it had been made 6-8 years ago, I’m sure my opinion would be different. Despite that, I’m really loving it so far. Many lines said were straight from the book, and they even showed the Pegasus in the first ep. It gives me a lotttt of hope for this series.
I also really really loved Logan Lerman as Percy Jackson, I thought he was amazing for the role and seemed very genuine. Kid Percy I feel misses some tones in his lines that should be there. It just really sucks that the movies went so wrong, so we never got more of Logan’s Percy. Sometimes I wish the movies had never been made purely so that I’d have nothing to compare this series to. I just am so cautious of loving this series, the movies hurt with how jumbled they were, and I don’t want to love this show and it not be renewed.
Anywho. I’m so sorry for the essay. Just wanted to share my thoughts! I loved the video, thanks again for posting it!!
They cut so much from both movies and changed the second one I wanted to scream. The books are so good the people that worked on the movies should never touch movies or shows adapted from books. Same goes for the Inheritance series by Christopher Paolini. Those books were fantastic, and the movie cut and changed a lot that the fans had the same reaction to Percy Jackson movies. While I normally would recommend watching a movie to make your opinion on it not in this case. Just read/listen to the books and forgo the movie Eragon.
Spoiler it couldn’t have been avoided. Cough certain god had other plans 😊
What kind of tv show choice is this? lol
A good choice duhhh cause I’ll be tuning in.
@@betteryourlife865 that's OK, enjoy what you like but it's way too kiddie for me
@@johnnyskinwalker4095 Honestly I get why you think it’s kiddie because at the start of the series Percy is 11 😭. I’d say keep watching because it will get a lot more mature as Percy ages and if they ever get to Hero’s of Olympus saga it’ll be quite mature.
@@johnnyskinwalker4095I mean it is a kid view point show but a lot of us older people read these books or watched the movies. It’s okay to enjoy things in your life if that’s something you want to see in action.
I mean Percy is 12 in the beginning lol is like dismissing Harry Potter because of the first two movies/books
So damn cringe, unbelievable. The hell with those amateur casting, their acting was just so bad, especially the three main ones. I can't even finish the half episode. I'm just gonna reread the books
What!? Lol
I guess people are allowed to just be wrong but I feel like you just wanted to hate this bc the actors are literally the characters and I say this as someone who just finished rereading lightning thief and am halfway through rereading sea of monsters
@@kayleighjones7669ikr! The sass is immaculate, I have no complaints
"amateur" they're children
I couldn’t even get through the second episode, way too many inaccuracies and the only characters who look anything like how they are described in the books are Percy and sally. The entire reason the movies failed is because they tried way too hard to be relevant to pop culture and changed so much that they were unrecognizable from the books. They’re doing the SAME THING AGAIN. I gave up on the entire series halfway through episode 2, the clunky dialogue and terrible animation also make it nearly impossible to watch.
Womp Womp
No one gaf cuz guess who approved and choose the direction for the series 😭😭😭
@@Itsupimupim crying these people think they know these books better than the actual author
@@Itsupimup Well screw Rick and his empty promise of a FAITHFUL adaptation.
Well, if you want accuracy, you should be complaining about Percy too. He's supposed to have black hair and tan skin, but of course you would never complain about a white, blond kid with blue eyes right?
