tw: the movies. but like. i just watched the first one (yes, for the first time) a week ago, and i hated the changes made in the story and all that. but what really made me go: this is a Bad Movie, was the hilarious amount of sexual jokes. The fact that every single female character is sexualised, and i'm not exaggerating:

the daughters of aphrodite being in a jacuzzi and evil!grover making nasty comments and sexual jokes

medusa being remembered because of the (apparently?) iconic quote: "i used to date your daddy" or however it goes

persephone being introduced just as a way to sexualise grover even more, the whole bit about her "visitors" and "i never had a satyr before" and it being more than implied that they spent the night together, excuse me?

and oh my, annabeth is just there. i swear her role is just being the romantic interest, there's not a hint of her being daughter of athena, her backstory is nonexistent, she doesn't do anything to help the quest. it's shocking to see and compare to the tv series.

i don't know, i just see people discussing how some scenes looked better in the movie or not, but no amount of lady gaga could top the character analysis and age appropriateness

will solace would totally say shit like "well good news your bone is not broken, bad news is i can SEE that it's not" and poor the patient that is new to camp and doesn't know them

i don't know if this has been pointed out but nico dissolving into darkness, not lineally but like glitching in and out, is such a gut wrecking metaphor of what depression can feel like

[onlythestar]

Random obscure deity no one has heard before shows up

Nico, immediately:

AND ALSO right beside is the golden armour made by hephaestus that achilles wore after patroclus left with his original one

(i might be delusional and it's just a golden armour but leave me dream)

PERCY JACKSON EP 106 SPOILERS

annabeth stealing hermes' keys and then calling him "the god of thieves" is such a funny foreshadowing if I can call it that

PERCY JACKSON EP 106 SPOILERS

I don't see anyone talking about this, but I need to share it:

When the nymph told Percy to go back to camp and that the quest was over, Percy still wanted to keep going because it is important. Right after, he's given 4 pearls, and he's like "Why 4?"

He forgot about saving his mom. For the first time, he saw the quest as something important to do, as something that needs to be done, not just a way to get his mom back.

I kind of see this as a way of showing how Percy is going to take the gods' side, he's starting to see the importance behind it all, not quite understanding it yet, but just seeing it. And guys. He. Forgot. About. His Mom. He was there to talk to Poseidon and get the quest done.

At least for a moment he wasn't Percy Jackson son of Sally Jackson, he was Perseus son of Poseidon and the chosen one to get the bolt back and help stop the war.

“This isn’t the Arch, seaweed brain. You’re not pushing me into the stairwell again.”

First of all, LINE DELIVERY?? Leah Sava Jeffries is an ACTRESS because ‘seaweed brain’ is actually so corny and it would simply feel like fan-service if they included it earlier or in another context but this was so natural and I was so swept up by all the other amazing things happening that I was excited about it but also keyed into the rest of the scene.

But the way this perfectly displays her fatal flaw. She will not let this boy trick her again (spoiler: he does). She was caught off guard at the Arch because she wasn’t familiar with his game but now she’s ready. She WILL die for him and that is final.

“Yes, I am.”

This was CRAZY?? Percy Jackson #1 mentally unstable man because how is he determined to win every ‘sacrifice myself’ off with her? And he says it to her face too. He does not care for the games anymore, he’s fully telling her that he needs her to live.

“I’m not going to let you this time. It doesn’t work that way!”

This made me so incredibly sad. Annabeth is still thinking in transactions. She’s thinking about how he made a sacrifice in the Arch so it’s her turn now. This is how relationships work. This is how every relationship she’s had works. She literally can’t comprehend how he doesn’t see it that way. How he could be selfless enough to sacrifice himself for her TWICE. How he could care about her enough to believe she deserves it even after she was the reason they were in the Arch in the first place (my baby my baby say it with me now you’re my baby).

“It’s why you’re here!”

“Excuse me?”

This was so soft like I just *screaming crying gif*. The last time she said ‘excuse me’ to him she was pissed off about him bringing up Athena but now she’s just confused and sad. Like, she trying to figure out what he means by this. Does he think she’s so heartless and robotic that she’d just let him die for her own gain?

I also love how they don’t have her say ‘what?’ because it just adds this extra layer of how Annabeth has trained herself to be more mature in everything she does, even her language, because she believes that if she’s not perfect, she’s not worthy of love and affection and maybe even existing (literally sobbing wtf).

“When I was choosing my team, I told Chiron I needed someone who wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice me if the quest required it. He agreed. That was you.”

I was confused at first about this because I thought Annabeth knew Percy thought this about her until I went back and watched the choosing ceremony again. He’s definitely keeping his voice lower as he speaks to Chiron and both Chiron and him are raising their voice as they address the other campers so makes sense that she wouldn’t have heard him.

But also, this just adds so much to literally everything. Because, in the beginning, Percy didn’t think him and Annabeth would become friends. He genuinely did think that she would sacrifice him if she had to and he thought he’d be able to curb it. He thought he’d be able to fight Annabeth if it came to it because she might choose the quest over his mom and he couldn’t allow that.

But now here he is, after getting to know her, and seeing her vulnerability and bravery and strength and courage and wisdom and passion and everything that makes her so beautiful and wonderful and amazing and his friend. She’s his friend and she’d never betray him. She’d never sacrifice him. She’d rather sacrifice herself before she ever did anything to harm him.

And he’s apologizing to her. Listen to the way Walker says the last line (again, THE ACTING). It’s literally a confession because he feels so bad that he ever believed that about her. And now he’s making her do it. He’s making her do this thing that he once thought she’d have done without hesitation. He’s thinking about the Fates cutting that string and he’s thinking about his own words to Chiron and how Chiron agreed and he’s thinking about how Annabeth said that prophecies aren’t always clear and he fully believes that he’s figured it out. This is fate. Annabeth would sacrifice him and complete the prophecy. She’ll be the friend that betrays him but not because she wanted to and he will fail to save what matters most, his own life.

This entire exchange was very insane. It’s my Roman Empire. I can’t stop thinking about it because it shows their motivations and their viewpoints and their internal struggles so so so well like I can’t even … I’m having a malfunction.
