The Failure of the Percy Jackson Movies... 16 Years Later

#PercyJackson #PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians #VideoEssay Sixteen years ago, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief hit theaters, and it became one of the most hated book adaptations ever made. Rick Riordan read the script, called it terrible, begged Fox to change it, and has never watched the movie. With Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 (The Titan's Curse) coming to Disney+ on November 20, I wanted to look back at what went wrong with the Percy Jackson movies: the aging up of Percy, Annabeth and Grover, the missing Kronos, the invented pearls, Sea of Monsters, the cancelled third movie, Disney buying Fox, and how the Disney+ series finally fixed it. So, were the Percy Jackson movies really that bad? Let me know down below.
