Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief is a 2010 fantasy film directed by Chris Columbus, adapted from The Lightning Thief, the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series of books. It stars Logan Lerman as Percy Jackson alongside an ensemble cast that includes Brandon T. Jackson, Alexandra Daddario, Jake Abel, Rosario Dawson, Steve Coogan, Uma Thurman, Catherine Keener, Kevin McKidd, Sean Bean and Pierce Brosnan.A sequel, titled Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, which was based on the second book in the Percy Jackson series, was released in 2013, with most of the cast returning to their roles. Thor Freudenthal (Diary of a Wimpy Kid) directed the film, replacing Chris Columbus.While both films were financially successful, they recieved widespread criticism from fans and professional critics, and Rick Riordan himself publicly disowned them. A third film was planned but never made before the series would be rebooted for streaming television in 2023. | |

Heal It with Water | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_14108379 | comment |
Heal It with Water: This ability is expanded from the books. While in the books contact with water (particularly salt water) can empower and heal Percy, in this adaptation he is capable of also using it to heal others' wounds, as seen when he submerges himself and gently holds Annabeth's wrist. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Some of the quests Percy mentions Clarisse completing — fighting a bronze dragon, recovering Ares' stolen chariot, etc. — were taken from some of the short stories in the original series. Ironically, whereas Percy played a pretty big role in those stories, the film states that Clarisse was the one to complete those, with Percy being mostly ineffectual. The amusement park "Circeland" is also a nod to how she appeared in the book. | |

Everybody Hates Hades | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_2cfee88 | comment |
Everybody Hates Hades: Gets off comparatively easy compared to some other adaptations. He makes his first appearance as a fiery demon type thing, but it's pretty clear that was just for show. Much is made of him being abusive but that's not really much in evidence. He is an asshole though (then again most gods are this in general). He offers to let Percy and company go in exchange for Zeus' lightning bolt, but when he gets it he tries to kill them. | |

Trailers Always Lie: The teaser trailer deceived fans of the books with a glimpse of Percy entering Olympus the same way regular mortals do in the books, via elevator from the Empire State Building's lobby after being allowed in by the front desk guy. In the film proper, Olympus is only accessible via a secret entrance on the roof. | |

Adapted Out: Oreius and Agrius, Tantalus, Circe, the Party Ponies, and the Laistrygonian Giants (though one does appear on Luke's boat). On a related note, Annabeth's conflicted feelings for Luke are left out; whereas a major conflict between her and Percy in the books was whether or not Luke had become completely evil, Annabeth in the film is clearly on Percy's side. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Hermes (Nathan Fillion) gives Percy powerful winds in a thermos from a Hercules-themed TV show that he describes as being "the best show ever...which means it's canceled". A good number of people may say the same regarding a show that Fillion became well known for. He also tells Percy and Annabeth, "It's cute how you finish each other's sentences." This is not the first time Anthony Head has played the mentor to a chosen one. | |

The Backwards Я | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_39271aee | comment |
The Backwards Я: Lettering in the films like the credits uses some Greek letters for added effect, e.g. replacing "E" with "Σ" (sigma, which makes an "ss" sound) and "O" with "Θ" (theta, which makes a soft "th" sound). Some letters are also just given random crossbars. | |

Faux Action Girl | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_40217655 | comment |
Faux Action Girl: Annabeth. Despite supposedly being the best fighter in the camp, she's easily beaten by Percy once he's told how to use his powers, is completely helpless against Medusa, isn't able to recognize when they've been enticed by the lotus eaters until after they escape (due to Percy), and does nothing during the final battle.note Technically speaking this is all pretty accurate in the books as well. Percy in the book was able to curbstomp the entire Ares Cabin once he touches water. Annabeth actually just stays in hiding during the conflict with Medusa (as opposed to attempting to roadkill her). Also Percy was the one who recognized first that the Lotus Casino was a trap. Though this actually make sense as this would be the very first quest Annabeth took. And unlike Percy, Annabeth doesn't have any get-a-power boost by touching water or any kind of superpower except her intelligence. | |

Adaptational Attractiveness: In the books, Clarisse is described as having the height of a basketball and the "broad, lean, and muscular body of a size XXXL rugby player", also making her the most physically adept female fighter at Camp Half-Blood. She's also said to have large, strong hands and small beady-looking pig eyes. In the film, she's played by Leven Rambin, and clearly is much more traditionally beautiful. Tyson himself isn't too hard on the eyes when shown with two eyes. | |

Adaptation Personality Change | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_6fbe85e6 | comment |
Adaptation Personality Change: Percy in the books was rather insecure, but his movie counterpart is downright cocky. Grover was written as more timid and shy. In the movie, he was more of a Casanova Wannabe. In the books, Annabeth might've been a serious Action Girl, but she was also a Plucky Girl who valued brains more than brawn. The movie focused more on her toughness and made her a lot more abrasive, making her more like Clarisse from the books. Hades in the books was a closer representation of how he was in Greek mythology: cold, aloof, and intimidating, but ultimately fair and true to his word. In the movie, he’s much more easygoing, sarcastic and manipulative, with Grover commenting on his lack of godlike presence. He’s also much more disrespectful to Persephone, who was Happily Married to him in the book but very much not so here. In addition to both being significantly nicer and more reasonable than their book counterparts, Zeus and Poseidon are shown to be cockier and less subtle when it comes to keeping mortals unaware of their existence; the film opens with a giant Poseidon emerging from the ocean in full view of a nearby fishermen, their conflict creates an unexplained storm system that stretches from coast to coast, and Zeus wastes no time in letting lightning fill the skies the instant his bolt is returned to him. | |

Adaptational Early Appearance | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_723606c4 | comment |
Adaptational Early Appearance: All twelve Olympians appear briefly in the throne room of Olympus when Percy returns the bolt to Zeus. In the book, only Zeus and Poseidon were present at that time, with most of the other gods not appearing until later in the series. The Hydra first appeared in the second book while it shows up in the first film. | |

| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_72455542 | comment |
Adaptational Intelligence: Athena appears to get this treatment. In the book, she was mentioned as being the only one of the Olympians who had taken Zeus's side in the conflict instead of Poseidon's, presumably due to the mutual grudge between them affecting her common sense. Whereas in the film, she is seen urging Zeus to think rationally so that they can settle things without starting an unnecessary war. | |

Idiot Ball | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_7286e96d | comment |
Idiot Ball: So many characters love it. Luke trying to imprison the son of Poseidon on a boat, Luke not searching Percy for his sword disguised as a pen when he ties him up, Percy and his brother hugging instead of stopping the Golden Fleece from resurrecting Kronos, the group crying over Annabeth's body even though they've just gotten the fleece that can heal anyone or anything. Every bad guy saying that Percy can't stop them because he's destined to destroy Mount Olympus even though the prophecy explicitly states he will have the chance to save it. The plot wouldn't move at all if the goddess of wisdom had been a bit more generous with her gift. However, in the books, Anaklusmos is enchanted to always reappear in Percy's pocket, which Luke might not know about. Though frankly, neither would someone watching the film... | |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_794f3589 | comment |
Adaptation Explanation Extrication: After the manticore is killed, it crumbles into dust. No explanation is given in the film for this; however, the books make a point that monsters become dust/sand after being killed. Additionally, they aren't truly killed so much as their souls are sent to Tartarus, where they can be reincarnated later on. Also, in the books, Anaklusmos (Percy's sword) is enchanted to always reappear in Percy's pocket, which Luke might not know about. Though frankly, neither would someone watching the film. | |

Humanity Ensues | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_7950239f | comment |
Humanity Ensues: The movie adds in a caveat that, by neglecting their divine duties and/or spending too much time with their half-blood children, it’s possible for a god to lose their divinity and gradually become mortal as time passes. To prevent the risk of this, Zeus passed a law prohibiting half-bloods from being in contact with their parents after Poseidon nearly fell victim to this fate. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: This portrayal of Zeus comes off as much more reasonable than his book counterpart. He still pins the theft of his bolt on Percy, but as the film cuts out the obvious means through which Luke did it, it’s not quite as much of a leap to have made; he also accepts Percy’s explanation about what really happened without argument, and even agrees upon request to bring Grover back from the Underworld. There also isn't mention of him forbidding Percy from flying, as he did in the book, and his most notable contribution otherwise — passing the law that forbade gods from being in contact with their half-blood offspring — only came about because Poseidon was neglecting his duties by doing so, to the point that he was starting to become mortal. | |

Though, things end up muddled due to the deviating nature of the first film. | |

Hades in the books was a closer representation of how he was in Greek mythology: cold, aloof, and intimidating, but ultimately fair and true to his word. In the movie, he’s much more easygoing, sarcastic and manipulative, with Grover commenting on his lack of godlike presence. He’s also much more disrespectful to Persephone, who was Happily Married to him in the book but very much not so here. | |

Dies Differently in Adaptation: Downplayed with Gabe who still gets petrified by Medusa's head but under different circumstances. The book implies Sally deliberately used Medusa's head on him, but here, Gabe breaks open a fridge in which the head is being stored, deliberately ignoring the warning Percy had posted on the door and thereby bringing about his own demise. The Hydra is blown to pieces with a Celestial Bronze cannonball in the books. Here, Grover turns it to stone with Medusa's head. | |

Informed Ability: We are told that Annabeth is a wise combat schemer, probably a combat pragmatist, but in the movie she offers no actual aid to the heroes and just kind of acts like a tag-along child with specks of damsel in distress. All the combat and ideas on how to solve problems are given by Percy the only exception being the idea to keep Medusa's head for later. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: The Princess Andromeda, Luke's cruise ship from the books, is here portrayed as a yacht. Not quite as impressive, really. | |

Action Girl | |
| Percy Jackson and the Olympians / int_dae5c997 | comment |
In the books, Annabeth might've been a serious Action Girl, but she was also a Plucky Girl who valued brains more than brawn. The movie focused more on her toughness and made her a lot more abrasive, making her more like Clarisse from the books. | |

Standard Female Grab Area: A justified example. Annabeth is subdued by a terrified woman grabbing onto her wrist - because the woman gets turned to stone by Medusa. | |

Clothing Damage: When Annabeth is stabbed by the Manticore, her jacket, shirt and top are naturally ruined. Later she is seen dressed in bloodied shirt with hole, while her jacket is discarded. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: Ethan Nakamura and Silena Beauregard are on the Princess Andromeda with Luke. Kronos appears in the final battle. A manticore fights alongside Luke. This would technically make it Dr. Thorn's film counterpart. | |

Decomposite Character: An example of this and Retcon: Annabeth in the first movie appeared to be a Composite Character of Annabeth (the book version, anyway) and Clarisse, who was nowhere in the film. In Sea of Monsters, Clarisse is shown to be attending Camp Half-Blood. | |

Product Placement: Apple products. Also, when Percy, Annabeth, and Grover go to see Luke on how to get into the Underworld, he's playing Modern Warfare 2, more specifically the "Favela" map on the OpFor side. In the sequel, UPS is revealed as being secretly run by Hermes. | |
