I’m tired of seeing my beloved books redone in a horrific manner. Percy Jackson (the first try)
I’m tired of seeing tokenism accepted just because people don’t care about real change. Percy Jackson (the second try)
I’m tired of not being able to speak my mind. Getting backlash I can handle. But straight up banning me because yall don’t like what I have to say? Ugh, grow a spinal cord. All I had said was “why make a show and say you’ll be book accurate if you won’t be”
I HATE that they are changing the races and nationalities of multiple characters. Or just not getting the details right. I am not specifically talking ONLY about Annabeth, but also Grover, Chiron, Percy and now THALIA!
Not only is she black, but she is British. Wtf. The whole point is that the gods vary and move around and during the course of PJO and HOO, they are in AMERICA - The USA. (Before anyone says it, Hades was only in Italy because he already had children on the Axis powers’ side during WW2 and while going back and forth was drawn to Maria)
I already didn’t watch the show beyond episode two because they ruined Sally, don’t even know what was up with Gabe, and many others. But seeing that they’re continuing in this route is just disappointing.
Now am I casting hate on the actors? No: they’re kids and everyone would die to play their favorite character even if they don’t look alike. But the part should’ve gone to people who were accurate or details should’ve been changed to at least help with it (giving annabeth blonde hair and grey eyes - giving Thalia her piercing blue eyes - Percy his green eyes and black hair).
Okay rant over.
