Percy Jackson and the Olympians Trailer

Is it bad that the only thing I was thinking when I saw this was "I hate this"?
I really, actually don't care if that's bad. That's what I thought.
Here's why:
  • I don't like the Annabeth actor.
  • I don't like the Grover actor.
  • I don't like the Annabeth actor.
  • I don't like the Percy actor.
  • I DON'T LIKE THAT SILLY ANNABETH ACTOR.
  • I don't like that they made out that Percy is some iPod obsessed Zac-Efron-haired-kid. (I mean, honestly? Logan Lerman, the idiot that plays Percy, had a voice that reminded me of High School Musical. And using his iPod to look at Medusa? What are they playing at? I know they're trying to make it all modern, but they're losing the spirit of the books!)
  • I don't like that they acted like Grover was some skirt-chaser instead of a nervous little goat-boy.
  • I don't like that Percy is seventeen years old. Has the script writer read the book? It's all-important to a prophecy that Percy turns SIXTEEN. SIXTEEN is slightly younger than SEVENTEEN. So what are you going to do, huh? Percy Jackson and the Suburban Family of the Camp Half-Blood Kids?
  • Did I mention that I DON'T LIKE THE ANNABETH ACTOR?

  1. My dear FRAS, that was all an under-statement.
    'Silly' does not describe it all. That Alexandra Daddario is 'heart-wrenchingly TERRIBLE' as Annabeth. And I was thinking that Percy looked like Zac Efron too! And an iPod? AN IPOD?!?! When exactly did THAT come in? Because I do NOT remember Percy carrying an IPOD with him to slay monsters. Riptide, yes. But an IPOD??? Who does he think he is? Apollo?
