IM SOBBING RN OVER THE LAST EPISODE ANNABETH BEING THERE WHEN LUKE BETRAYED PERCY BROKE MY HEART, LIKE MY BBG OMFG
I AM SO FUCKING EXCITED FOR TOMORROW AND THE FINAL EPISODE OF PJO BUT ALSO REALLY SAD BECAUSE NO MORE PJO SHOW FOR A WHILE LIKE I CANT WAIT TO SEE LUKE BETRAY PERCY BUT ALSO IM SAD BECAUSE NO MORE GROVER
She’s going to betray you. Sooner or later, people like her, they always do. I don’t think she’s like that.
PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS 1.03 – "We Visit the Garden Gnome Emporium"
do you hate annabeth because she's black now??
Hate book Annabeth? Sometimes, but not entirely, though, I dislike her character portrayal later in the books.
Hate Show Annabeth? Not in this lifetime, she has managed to make Annabeth likable by toning down her sheer aggressiveness towards Percy that she has on the whole first two books and I think we can all agree that Leah has nailed the essence of Annabeth before the show ruined it that is.
(I won't even address your titular question because it's so absurd and of literally no significance to the whole thing.)
Have they butchered her character arc in the show? Absolutely. They made her borderline cold and detached from emotions and removed from things of normal world. Annabeth's problem has never been her lack of sentiment or normalcy or her cold demeanor. She is one of the most empathizing characters in the books because she is so flawed and so human, and the show has literally ripped that from her in an attempt of female empowerment and other bullshit as if Annabeth chase of all people needs female empowerment .
Do I hate Show? Absolutely.
I think it must be some sort of universal rule that you either get great books or great movies/shows, but you can't have both.
Cause the actors are spot on, but they have butchered the show utterly and completely like there's not enough words for the amount of things wrong with it.
And don't even get me started on visual effects for monsters and stuff cause even the movie had better visual effects .
The only redeemable part about the show is the Posally backstory and the take on Medusa.
And that's all I have to say over this whole mess .
“wisdoms daughter walks alone.”
“and you will fail to save what matters most, in the end.”
Gonna have to start a counter for how many times Percy falls on his ass. Only two episodes in and he spent about 10 minutes each just falling down
Oh my god. The tears in Luke’s eyes when Percy says the betrayal line. The desperate pleading for them to run away. That he doesn’t want to hurt Percy. The tears in Percy’s eyes. The fear and shaking. Percy apologizing for actually hurting him. The look of horror on Luke’s face as Annabeth comes in. How horrified he looks when he looks down at Percy, who he HURT. The realization that Percy won’t join, and the equaled horror of hurting a twelve year old child.
Then he runs.
did anyone else start going absolutely feral when in the first episode of Percy Jackson the D’Angelo sandwich shop was mentioned and there little Nico kinnie brain immediately went “oh my gosh is this a reference?!!” no? Just me? Ok.
