Logan Lerman and Brandon T. Jackson:
These could be great movies. I don't have all that much faith in Chris Columbus, but we'll see.

I love these books and cannot wait for the movie!
Posted by: Betsy | 03 March 2009 at 01:00 PM
Oooh, they actually look good! Especially Percy.

Good casting, but then Columbus cast Harry Potter well, too. But then he killed the book. Killed it. Granted, there wasn't a whole lot there, but still. The first two movies are horrible. (The movies didn't get remotely good until Prizoner of Azkaban.)
Why, oh, why, couldn't they have gotten someone different for Percy Jackson?
Sigh.

Yes, I think the faces are right for the characters. Can't wait for the last book to come out.

Awww, Grover is just adorable! These books really are begging to be made into movies. I'm excited.

WHAT THE HELL!!!!! 007 IS PLAYING CHIRON???
Posted by: JZ | 08 May 2009 at 11:43 PM
okay i'm seriously not racist, but in the book Rick Riordan wrote that has the pictures of Grover, Anabeth, and Percy, Grover is white not black. so i'm just saying they're doing a pretty crappy job of having actors that actually look like the characters from the book.
Posted by: JZ | 10 May 2009 at 10:24 PM
Seriously Grover was described as a white nerdy kid! I hate watching movies that are based off books. Usualy they ruin the books.
Posted by: ?? | 05 August 2009 at 11:53 PM
i didnt think was black either but in one of the books something said he was and i was like ...what....oh ..ok
Posted by: ?????? | 17 September 2009 at 09:17 AM

Um, I don't think this movie will be good just like they failed the Cirque du freak and others.
Posted by: Haley | 21 January 2010 at 08:53 PM
"Ohmygosh. Grover ain't black!"
"Annabeth ain't blond!"
"Cry cry whine whine!"
Would you people shut the fuck up?
It's great that you love the books enough to know the difference, but really?
Does it matter that much? That you wanna watch the same exact thing you read?
Does it matter that much? That the actors don't look like the characters but are probably better actors than anyone else who auditioned?
Are you people really gonna let something as simple as the color of Grover's skin and Annabeth's hair keep you from enjoying this movie?
Just take pride that you read the books first and enjoy what's coming.
Sheesh.

please stop using the bad words. but i agree
Posted by: chad | 24 February 2010 at 04:18 PM
I saw the movie...NOTHING IN IT WAS CORRECT!!!!!!
You know, casting differences, but also PLOTLINE!
HOW DO YOU F(_)CKING MESS UP THE PLOTLINE?????????
Posted by: vinny | 19 June 2010 at 09:06 AM
I haven't seen the movie but I'm one of those people that notices every little difference between the book and the movie all my friends have said I will be mad watchin that movie but idk........ did they really screw up the plotline like everyone is sayin or are we turnin in to Twilight fans and actin like every little detail matters???? honestly
Posted by: <3Zach's baby<3 | 26 June 2010 at 12:52 AM
Ok I hope and pray this movie isn't as screwed up as Twilight
Posted by: <3 War, Hate, Flyleaf <3 | 29 June 2010 at 03:41 AM
It was worse. Because Twilight was a crap movie based on crap source material, whereas The Lightning Thief was a crap movie based on wicked fun and entertaining source material.
Posted by: Leila | 29 June 2010 at 05:52 AM
you people grow-up whos care if there black or white or even blue at least they can act onless you want to wacth a crapy movie where people say *cough*instead of doing it which is really crapy.but, really they messesd up the ending.
Posted by: bluefire76854 | 12 April 2012 at 07:32 PM
P.s to me Grover does look better black because it doesn't sound right for him to be white,no offense. I LUV THE BOOKS I READ THE WHOLE SERIES :) :):)
