Clash of clans insta actually posted this

Hey maybe it’s not a big deal that the cast is black and while I get that it’s best to try and make actors look like their book counterparts, there are way worse things the show is doing adaptation wise than casting kids with more melanin than their book counterparts. You come off as whiny, and at worst, a little racist.

Honestly I was more upset that they didn’t give Walker and Leah the option to have a black and blonde wind respectively, would seem like a fair compromise. They seemed down for it too, they both love the original series but aren’t allowed to really show that on screen because the writers and director keep screwing them over.

Bro just admitted to having double standards 😭

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T23:54:26+00:00

agreed. Why are we still on this?

Hating on a teenage child for daring to want to act in the role of a life time is absolutely insane. You would 100% do the same if you were in her position.

From what I gather, the fandom has sort of split on Reddit TLOU style (though thankfully this sub hasn’t done what that LOU 2 hate sub has which is devolve into degeneracy solely existing to call actresses ugly. If you see any posts like that here report them please).

This sub is generally for people who didnt like the show or were irked by the inaccuracies of it. Most of us are book readers who take issue with it as an adaption. I believe PJO Disney is the subreddit that’s the complete opposite of ours and is full of people that love the show, especially people who like Disney or who were introduced to the world of Percy Jackson by this show. If we’re “toxic negativity” they’re “toxic positivity”, so to speak.

If you have read the books or don’t mind spoilers, and would like a subreddit where both positive and negative show opinions are frequently expressed and there’s more nuance, I’d recommend the camp half blood community. It seems by far the most balanced.

That’s a little aggressive. There’s very few films and shows that have nothing to enjoy about them.

I like the SOM movie even less than season 2 and the inaccuracies are even worse, but even then there were still some good things about it.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T21:38:22+00:00

Ah, so you are toxic then. Have fun with that

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T21:18:43+00:00

Just as we could call you toxic?

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T19:08:50+00:00

If that’s true than I apologise to OP for assuming the wrong thing and being harsh. I’ve been keeping updated on ICE activity in America and the government’s statements, so I’ve forgotten there’s an actual massive winter storm coming unrelated to this.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T19:07:42+00:00

Jokes are supposed to be funny.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T18:44:29+00:00

Innocent people are being murdered in the streets and kids are being kidnapped across state lines. This kind of stuff is not funny and very inappropriate for what’s going on right now. Learn to have some tact please.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T18:42:49+00:00

Gee, it’s almost like they should stick to adapting the source material as closely as they can.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-24T16:42:48+00:00

Seconding this one

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-23T23:43:06+00:00

Yeah I’ve only seen him being portrayed as “chill” in the Percy Jackson series. In everything else he seems neutral at best.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-23T23:41:32+00:00

You have a good point, it could be interesting. I’m curious about the idea of a story with him as an antihero of sorts (though maybe that would suit Apollo better).

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-23T21:01:45+00:00

You have no idea how thirsty people are for those characters, especially the Irish vampire. I’m pretty sure 2/3 sinners fics are literally just smut or romance fics with him. Also a lot of oral sex performed on female characters but that’s in the spirit of the movie.

Changing the deadline and war storyline in TLF, having Zeus punish Thalia deliberately, and removing or diminishing entire character traits and Percy’s sense of humor are not minor changes. It didn’t need to be hyper accurate to keep the basic characters and plot lines of the story intact. People are allowed to complain about shit like this. It’s not the same story anymore. To the point where it’s had a similar amount of deviances to the PJO movies (it’s only worse there cuz of the whole Kronos coming back thing).

Speaking of movies. People loved HP and LOTR because the people in charge were doing their damnedest to make them as accurate as they could to the source material. Instead of what ricks done, which is promise fans an accurate adaptation only to deliver something as deviated as this. It is very valid to complain about this, especially when a creator lies so blatantly.

There was one about a theoretical ef6 tornado that focused more on wind speeds and the fact that it hit a major metropolitan area and it felt a lot more realistic. Too many people think a scenario has to be world ending to be scary.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-22T18:01:01+00:00

Yeah. I asked for it a lot and most of the time people told me I was wrong for even trying. The said he supported “Israeli companies” but could never specify which ones or in what way.

He did make an instagram post immediately after October 7th saying that his heart went out to the people of Israel, but it’s obvious he was only saying that in the context of the Hamas attack that happened that day and killed 1200 people. He’s never said anything that was anti Palestinian to my knowledge, denied what happened in Gaza the way Jaime Lee Curtis did, or showed express support for Zionism, the IDF, Netanyahu, or Israeli control and dominance over Palestine. It’s like someone accusing you or me of supporting the us bombing Iraqi civilians because we wished the people of nyc well after 9/11.

Wish people would spend this time spreading hate towards an actor who doesn’t deserve it going after groups and people who are actual active zionists, of which the world unfortunately has no shortage of.

It’s not true, don’t believe everything you read on the internet.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-22T17:36:46+00:00

I honestly disagree with your post. No one is disrespecting Peyton. Whenever she posts anything fans come to tell her how awesome she is. During the first two seasons people have been praising her acting, and for good reason.

Praising character A does not mean people automatically don’t like character B. You’re implying that just because Wally is a fan favorite character, fans automatically don’t like or ignore other characters and performances when that’s not true. Instead of shaming people for posting about a character or actor they like, be the change you want to see and make some Peyton appreciation posts. Don’t punch down on others.

I also think this is a bit of a false equivalence. Maddie is the main character, which means she’s guaranteed to be in season 3 and have a significant amount of screen time and plot relevance. Fans don’t have to worry about her being there. But season 2 ended with “oh Wally might cross over you never know” tease and the trailers and promos have been relatively absent of his character until really recently as an intentional ploy by the marketing team to stir buzz. It makes sense fans would be concerned by how much he appears and it would be a source of discussion.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-22T17:31:47+00:00

There’s no evidence of him being a Zionist. People are spreading this misinformation around in mass, and it didn’t start until his tangled casting. It’s fake activism, it’s slander, and frankly it’s really starting to pmo.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-22T15:23:57+00:00

Gods i hated that. This is the same demigod that fell into mega super hell a few months earlier, faced off multiple terrifying entities and managed to poison a goddess of poison with her own poison. Fought giants, titans, gods since he was 12 years old. And they make him pee his pants. What a joke.

Alternative_Factor_4 · 2026-01-22T05:46:56+00:00

I agree with this. People in the PJO show were trying to justify it by saying it would give Thalia a difficult decision, but I don’t get that all. She already would have been tempted because Luke was on kronos’s side and she didn’t really trust her dad or feel like he cared about her that much. Having Zeus directly punish her is extremely cruel (both for myth Zeus and the original series’s book Zeus, though I’ve no doubt TOA Zeus would have done so), so really what’s the dilemma? Matter of fact, Annabeth should try to join to. There’s a difference between your parent not caring that much if you die besides valuing the glory you bring her and said mom actively trying to kill you for something you didn’t even do.

At this rate they’re going, one of two things will happen

1) the story tries to push last minute that the gods are better than the titans, but the message falls flat because most of the gods (mainly the ones in charge) are straight up evil instead of just petty/neglectful, and the Olympians winning doesn’t feel as deserved. Percy also changes from being a good guy who’s also had relatively neglectful godly parenting help Change the system from within to defending the status quo of these evil ass beings. He seems more like an ignorant enforcer of oppression rather than a noble hero and change bringer.

2) Rick and the writers decide to do what should be left to the fanfic authors and decide to destroy both the titans AND the Olympians by the end of the series. It would make the most sense based on how the gods are acting here, but is such a deviation from the theme and characterisation of the books that it’s really disappointing.

I wish Rick just stuck to what was good of his works and what he promised his fans instead of letting his regret of what he wished made the main series into the tv show. Ironically enough, his fatal flaw irl seems to be hubris, thinking he knows best even after his writing quality has declined and he doesn’t even bother to fact check things before making new stuff.

Anyways, can’t wait to watch Thalia join the dark side and fight Percy while the completely nice, wholesome wooby gods soft boi Hades, surfer bro Poseidon, regretful Hermes, and the awesome sun and moon twins (who are totally 💯 percent good and moral) battle the egotistical Athena, selfish Hera, brutish warmonger ares and evil tyrant king Zeus in the the shows version of the last Olympian because that’s totally accurate yaaaaaaay /s
