Percy Jackson and Harry Potter have the same type of themes. Same type of characters. Percy and Harry are the heroes that grew up not knowing what they really were. They both attend places mostly unknown to humans. They both are important people. Annabeth and Hermione are the brains of the trio. Grover and Ron are the best friends and are always making jokes. They all have crazy adventures and at school/camp they go back to the regular world.

The people in all the Harry Potter movies were casted pretty well. The trio all look like their book characters. Unfortunately, the trio in Percy Jackson does not. They are not the correct age. Annabeth and Grover do not look like their book characters.

The Harry Potter movies do okay to sticking to the storyline. In the Sorcerer’s Stone it stays along the line, but no movie (that I know of) could get as close to the books as Twilight. Already Percy Jackson looks to have strayed with changing Annabeth and Grover. Also Riptide appears to be a click pen on the trailer rather than one with a cap. The opening scene in this trailer never happens in the book. I hope they cut it out of the movie as I don’t like them giving you that hint as to who is father is. Medusa is supposed to be an old grandma and on the trailer Medusa (Uma Thurman) doesn’t at all look old. In the scene shown with Medusa Percy is holding a PHONE! Demigods don’t use phones as they are like beacons. As it is an iPhone, let’s hope it’s just Grover’s cell phone. I’m glad Chris Columbus is directing as he did keep the two Harry Potter movies close to the books.

I’m really hoping The Lightening Thief will be a great movie even if it isn’t close to the books.
