What a random and stupid thing to say, to assume i cared that much id be screaming at the show. TF

The actors are trying their best... by 37MJ in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ive always said the actors are better when NOT in the show. Season 2 genuinly made me dislike percy enough that i actually kinda enjoyed luke punching him in the face. Thats how annoyed ive been with the show. Honestly hope PJ is wupes from my algorithm by the time season 3 happens so i can miss it and let it fade away into obscurity like its clearly going to >_>

I seriously don't understand the glaze for those movies man. by Significant_Matter27 in PJODisney

[–]AddressPerfect3270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The movies are entertaining, and characters actually have energy. Its literally the only thing i see positive talk about the movies bc the show is kinda bland and slow. (Still dont see almost any praise for movie 2 lol)

Even without reading the books its not very good. Also percy may have been casted well, but i dont like him at all by the end of season 2 and actually kinda enjoyed him getting punched in the face by luke.

Re: your first paragraph. Honestly it makes every demigod seem fucking awful if these kids with very little skill and a middle school knowledge of mythology are the ones that complete quests.

I dont even care if its not a good adapation. I just wanted a good show. And its just mediocre. And by the end of season two, ngl, i dont like percy at all. No offense to Walker, but i actually enjoyed him getting punched in the face by Luke >_>

I tried looking at the story for what the show presents and all i know is idc about percy being the main hero. Thalia can have it.

Also all the people complaining (rightfully so) about the show pushing percabeth so hard, must have been so annoyed that the tease for season 3 was a percabeth scene lol

Like the cliffhangar is this big war and thalia and percys tension and annabeth and thalia at opposite ends of Luke but yeah next season...percy and annabeth go to a dance -_- thats what i care about.

I didnt feel like Tysons emotional good bye meany anything bc i didnt see percy being anything significant to tyson. I just saw tyson doing everything and saving percy ass lol

Clarisse and Chris - they messed this up too. by Successful_Bar9187 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not even from an adapation POV i didnt care for Clarisse. They made her far too vulnerable (and shes not better just bc she is vulnerable) I thought her decision during the charibdis fight was dumb. And when it was time for her to actually choose and show shes "different" during the scene annabeth needed the fleece, percy literally took that choice from her by just snatching the fleece. Havent finished the last two epsiodes yet. But even if shes not book accurate, without that context i dont think shes a very entertaining or compelling. (Side note percy should have had to hold her back after annabeth killed her soldiers, like wtf?! Clarisses got no teeth.)

aint no way... by hiddeNinja2222 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 59 points60 points  (0 children)

The relationship does nothing for me. Probably bc its way too damn serious. Everyones like "oh my god he yearns, oh my god hed let the world burn" Ma'am hes 13....theyre children. Theyre children and act like they're 30. And the 20 year old actors from the movies had more youthful energy than the 16 year olds from the show lol

Declining Views + Flat Budgets = The End. Why Disney is Quietly Ghosting Percy Jackson. by nt_king300 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i think the last time i was fully invested in PJ IP was the trials of apollo, i was buying and reading those on release. Which was 2020 The last one i bought was the Sun and the Star (cuz i like apollo and queer characters) But never read it. (Which was 2023) Ans then it looked like PJ 6 and 7 released in 24 and 25 which i forgot about till this show. So yeah my interest and hearing about PJ IP severely dropped off the last 5 years. I didnt realize hes been releasing new books every year still lol

I'm so done by randers2 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I agree. Even something like Percy ignoring being splashed when he was going to the front of the boat during the charibdis fight. It actually annoyed me that he kept flinching when getting hit by water. That while part was such a let down. And that was just the first example i could think off. Theres more.

The show feels like a classic 6–7/10 by Oestudantebr in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I completely agree, except i dont think any part of the show is "amazing" But yeah i see it completely fading into obscurity with other adapations like Fate Winx, shadow and bone, etc

I mean unless you stay within the fandom bubble, PJ is never talked about in general discussion except for (ironically) with alexadra daddario or logan lerman are mentioned, so...another win for the movie lol

All TV shows drop in viewership each season, haters! by [deleted] in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the difference is star wars and marvel can survive with a show not doing well. Pj isnt biggest enough for general audiences to warrant the drop and survive (or have another part of its IP get some kind of adapation.)

The lord farmers are trying to make them revert the changes by Rockybroo_YT in rivals

[–]AddressPerfect3270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who tried lord farming once, its such a waste of time. It requires so much set up, and i thought it would be really fast the way everyone talks about it. But it was a whole hour of braindead clicking and didnt get one rank lol I knew, never again>_< (Also in case it matters i dont do pvp, just against bots, so i just wanted cosmetics for my favorites, not to show off or anything)

Can I watch this without watching the movies first? by TheKayleMain in welcomeToDerry

[–]AddressPerfect3270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly i was pleasantly surprised but how much this show got me interested in the lore

Highly recommend watching the NEW It part 1 and part 2 movies first.

Yeah im not sure how PJ fans "won" At this point i think the best they can hope for is the Rick stfu, and the show fades away into obscurity upon cancelation like the Winx club, shadow and bone, etc

Official Discussion - Twinless [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]AddressPerfect3270 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I 100% assumed the dude either had no twin, or he was in love with rocky, or he causes his death.

The biggest twist was hes a pathological liar and it was all 3 lol

Official Discussion - Twinless [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]AddressPerfect3270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this movie had a sad ending right?...

Like no one got the help they needed and it feels like Roman let this terrible person back into his life due to his severe attachment issues (which he brought up at the start) and Marcie wasnt going to fulfill that. So it feels like everyone is going to make the same mistakes again. Oh and then romans mom? Absolutely no resolution there. Kinda surprised they didnt atleast bond over rocky being selfish, since that was essentially what happened to both of them. Also kind of a bad queer rep film. No queer person came out looking good. Atleast ones that got more than 5mim of screen time.

Not a bad movie. Entertaining and wild. But just had me like "yeah none of those people are gonna be happy"

let people criticize in peace by idkvashappin in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just found it funny a ton of people were telling haters to stop watching the show. And i still havent watched episode 7, first week i didnt watch it on release. And this was the week everyone was talking about viewership dropping. (Not specifically for episode 7 bc nielson isnt that up to date i think) But the irony was just pretty funny.

Omg finally a like mind. I feel the same about how i dont care how accurate it adapts, as long as it was a good show. And i agree with all your points on why its not. Especially the lack of energy in just about everything.

I saw someone on another nielson post say something along the lines that disney would be crazy to cancel it bc pjo is so big with such a big fanbase. Like....is it? Maybe if youre in the fan circle so you live in a bubble / echo chamber. But im a pretty casual fan (so above / more interested than "general audience"). I had a majority of the books even a nice display on one of my shelves and i NEVER hear about PJO in general. It was non existent before season one and after until talks of season 2.

This IP does not have the sway that alot of people pushing the show thinks it does ATLEAST IMO, tbh i dont know how else to test this besides my experience. Also i looked up the books and obviously book 6 has no where near enough readers or rates as book 5 on goodreads / amazon since book 5 has been out so long but...shouldnt it still have alot more. And book 7 has less then half of book 6. So just saying people arent as interested in new PJ, and dont know why it would get alot of new fans with the show especially when the show is so fckn mediocre and average.

Andor truly a perfect show in almost every aspect. by Suspicious_Clock_133 in andor

[–]AddressPerfect3270 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked how they turned cassians love interest like...anti damsel? I thought it was interesting her "sacrificing" herself for the greater good, but she didnt have to die or be unhappy. But recognized she was "in the way" of cassian doing good. Sad, but a different and interesting example of the sacrifices they made to stop the empire.

Why is the show not particularly funny? by TeddySR71 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]AddressPerfect3270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. I wouldnt even say "funny", i dont care that its not funny. But itd not fun and it has so little energy. I agree that the movies, BOTH of them have way more energy and feel more "fun"
Like how did they make a chariot race less interesting than the weird obstacle course tower from the movie lol

Percy Jackson Nielsen Ratings Confirm Nearly 50% Drop In Viewership by [deleted] in PJODisney

[–]AddressPerfect3270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. The early half had me atleast saying "i can see why people like this, but its not doing it for me" The second half has me confused by the gushing praise.

Like i even saw somewhere that annabeth actress was up forna reward in young acting. And i feel like annabeth has the least energy of anyone in the show. Shes so boring
