​@@EllainDarragh995 Yeah, OK, we're clearing up this misconception.

There is literally no way Blue “I love domes and history” is not an Athena kid.

I think some people are too hard on Percy Jackson sometimes. Are they not exactly like the full Greek myths? Yes. They’re meant for kids and unlike some authors that will not be named, Rick Riordan does try to be inclusive of other people than what was typically considered mainstream. It’s played a huge part in what is basically a Greek Mythology renaissance in writing, which I’m grateful for.

After a stage performance by my friend Maria Olsen, she told me she'd been cast in Chris Columbus's next project, and she'd be flying to Canada in a day or two. She couldn't remember the title of the film. A day or two after she had left, I was headed AMC theater, and the Coming Next Year Teaser for _Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief_ was shown. As indicated Chris Columbus, I emailed Maria, who confirmed that was the project. Accurately deducing it was a book series, I bought the first three as a box set on Amazon. Halfway through the first book I quickly ordered the 4th and 5 the books. I also emailed Maria and said "You're playing Mrs Dodds, aren't you?" She affirmed, wondering how I knew she was playing that particular role. I pointed out I'd worked with her enough to know it would be idiots to cast anyone else in that role. As the film neared its release date, and it's trailers began to surface, I was thrilled that they focused on Maria's scenes, particularly as they were very close to the scenes in the book. Then I saw the film. I was aghast. Apart from Maria's scenes as Mrs Dodd's, although they neglected to kill her in the museum, the film went so far off the tracks, I had to wonder wtf was going on? I love the IMDb comments on the film, in that those who haven't read the books were like "Meh, it was okay," to those who _had_ read the books, wanting to light a bonfire under whoever wrote the screenplay "adaptation"...

I think book Percy was pretty good at noticing signs he's walking into the trap but he's generally in such a bad situation that the trap maker is able to use magic to make him not care about the fact he's walking into a trap (Medusa using food to lure him and Annabeth into her garden gnome emporium because they'd just spent half a day running after losing all their supplies) or he's actually got no choice but to walk in (the trap Hephaestus laid for Ares and Aphrodite that Percy was forced to trip by Ares).

there's also the general thing of there usually being some magic that lures people into those areas. for example, medusa basically put a spell on the kids to make them less on edge and more willing to trust her

To be fair on the Athena criticism in the show. Rick does some stuff with Athena in the Heroes of Olympus series that paints her in a more unflattering light. Including introducing Arachne and her story in the third book. But yeah, that stuff wasn't really in the original Percy Jackson series.

For those trying to read the heroes of Olympus, I cannot stress enough, The Lost Hero is the weakest because it has to reintroduce camp Half-Blood to new characters for the first half of the book, and gets better when they leave the camp.

I loved when Percy first gets to his apartment in the series Sally is sitting on a tiny balcony in the rain, letting the rain hit her face. The way it was shot it felt like Poseidon made the clouds open for HER. Even though Percy hates Poseidon at first, there are small hints that Sally loves and misses him and Poseidon feels the same. I also loved how easily Sally manipulates Gabe. Like it's clear he sucks and is at least mildly abusive but the way she gets him to lend her the car is SO awesome. She just feels like an independent character which makes it sting all the more when she's almost killed and then taken by Hades. Basically I LOVED Sally and Poseidon in the show, they nailed it!!

I kind of had the opposite reaction to that. The show paints Gabe as just pathetic. I never once get the vibe that he has the spine to stand up to Sally, let alone hurt her. Gabe in the show deserves a swift kick in the balls and a reality check, he doesn't deserve to die. It honestly makes Sally feel weaker than her book counterpart, to me, because book Sally chose to put up with years of abuse for Percy's sake, show Sally put up with an annoying waste of space. One of these things is much more impressive than the other. Gabe's characterisation is one thing I think the film did much better than the show

Thinking from the hades game perspective, kinda makes sense though. Hell hath no fury like a god/goddess scorned and they are incredibly petty.

In the “what monster would you send as a god question” I would like to submit the resume of the undead soldiers from the titans curse, the spartoi. Simple as they may be, they are skilled warriors with excellent tracking abilities that just can’t be beat by anyone who doesn’t have ties to the underworld. Also, since they are humanoid, you’re not going to be able to lose them by going somewhere they won’t fit.

Thank you for talking about this series written by one of my favourite authors (even though I am far outside the target demographics), I just love how well Uncle Rick plays with the myths and weaves this entirely new world from them. It was an off-handed snarky comment at an appropriate time but just to avoid confusion, I wanted to point out that Rick himself wrote the a good portion of the show and had a lot of creative control. He also talked about how he took the opportunity to fix mistakes in his earlier work - one example being the Arc, which he had falsely assumed was next to the river. Also there were themes he only fully developed later on (i.e. Zeus being an abusive father) but now takes the chance to include in the early parts of the story. I strongly recommend the 'Apollo' series, which is quite unusual with an initially almost entirely unlikeable protagonist (Apollo himself), which is also written from inside his head (which Red surely would appreciate) and spills a lot of the tea on what is going on behind the scenes on Olympus.

Around 45 Minutes, the question of Hermes dicking the heroes around comes up. I think it's a question of family loyalty. He could not help Luke before. Now he's trying to keep his son out of the hot seat. If Percy and Co. fail? Luke is not exposed, and Hermes' complicity (even if it's forced as "your kid will go down for this if you don't help") isn't revealed either. Hermes does not want Luke to hurt more than he already has been... it's a common parental mistake, especially when overcompensating for bad choices in the past.

As an avid fan of all of these people, today i learned i can't tell Blue's and Mike's voices apart… Unexpected since i spend SO MUCH TIME listening to them both.

I've always interpreted the gods in Percy Jackson to be the personification of the angel on humanity's shoulder. The gods can do a lot of things for humans, but one thing they can't do for us, is fight the devil on our other shoulder...humanity literally stands between them. This is why the world needs heroes to defeat monsters, humidity has to be strong enough to conquer its own demons because the gods and the monsters are just manifestations of the same thing..... humanity's collective belief in them

Personally, I think that the love shared between Poseidon and Sally is the reason why Percy is so powerful. Sally was able to connect to Poseidon in such a level (I mean, he called her a queen among women and wanted to build a palace for her), that when they...procreated, Poseidon either a) combined with Neptune, or b) became Mycenaean Poseidon. This would explain why Percy can control even the Underworld rivers, as well as create earthquakes and even do slight magic with the "ward-off evil" sign. The same pattern seems to follow with Nico: Hades loved Maria deeply, and their son has an extensive amount of control over the dead and shadows. By contrast, other Big 3 kids like Thalia, Jason, and Hazel aren't considered to be on the same level, and their parents really didn't love each other: Beryl only loved Zeus for his powers and title, and Zeus probably saw Beryl as a nuisance; Marie called upon Pluto and desired to have his riches, which Pluto warned against.

The idea that I could secretly be a demigod, that I could have an escape and be more than an abused kid hiding in their room, meant a LOT. 3.

55:05 Python actually appears in a late series. It takes place after Heroes of Olympus and is called The Trials of Apollo where Apollo gets blamed for a lot of what happens in the previous series, so Zeus makes him mortal as punishment. The Roman emperors and Python have been overtaking all of Apollo’s various Oracles to the point that it starts messing with Rachel Dare’s prophecies. Apollo needs to defeat the emperors, with the finale being his fight against Python and in order to return to Olympus he has to restore all of his Oracles back to himself. It’s really fun and entertaining, all of the chapters are haikus by Apollo himself, and he gets stuck in the body of a 16 year old Lester Papadopoulos and him walking around complaining about his lack of divinity, abs, and general talent is hilarious, definitely recommend reading

Indigo edits Dom's videos? I didnt know that! Neato!

For the last question, has to be the Caledonian Boar, basically the Greek mythology original raid boss.

finally they talking about percy jackson and having Dominic Noble osp crossover

14:45 I now have an image of Heracles picking up a dude, and smashing the dude into his forehead like a beer tinnie.

Oh this is going to be fun. Can’t wait to hear the OSP (and guests) discussing Percy Jackson.

I really do love Percy Jackson. The graphic novels were my ideal form of media and they were genuinely such a good read. I would’ve read the books, I have the lightning thief at home, but unfortunately I fell victim to the gaston disease of “how can you read this? There’s not even any pictures!” So I dropped it, but I’d love to pick it back up sometime.

Hooray! OSP is doing Percy Jackson stuff!

GASP my favorite channel talking about my favorite thing! What a treat!

I listened on Spotify to prevent KZread Ads. Great video as always, I love hearing from you both and other creators!

I didn’t read the description so I heard the voice and went…is that Dom?!

My 9 year old cousin just started reading them. I immediately gave her my copies of the first 5 books

A podcast? Talking about Percy Jackson? Now I've seen everything

WOOOOH we got a lot of people a LONG (ish) episode and it's all about Percy Jackson? don't mind if I do!!!

The crossover I didn't know I needed. I love you all so much!

Hunter of Artemis is definitely NOT a cop out btw that's literally such a good answer. Esp for Red who's ace iirc (?) no downsides!

OMG PERCY JACKSON I LOVE THIS 💙

Thanks for a fun episode, you made me smile a lot 😁 and even actually lol

I got into Percy Jackson because my teacher thought I would love the book. She was correct.

Haven't started watching yet, but man am I excited

Athena is definitely not portrayed in a kind light in the sequel book Mark of Athena

I knew I woke up at 6 am for a good reason.

Fellow child of Hecate!

I think hotel california and the house of the rising sun both match the vibe of what the lotus casino is really well. I don't know if the songs bop enough, but thematically they're perfect.

52:36 knew I could count on Red, the resident hunter, to remember it was in The Titan's Curse

I grew up with the image of scylla being a mix of dog and spider. That she had a spider like body, with eight dog heads, sitting between the legs (so it's leg, head, leg, head, leg,... all the way around).

Love your content, come back to finish later.

For somebody who’s only exposure to this series beyond the movies and reading the book with the giant albino alligator that I didn’t know was related until later, it’s fun to hear all about this universe I know nothing about

Think one of the funniest things I’ve ever read online are people saying “the movies are better or that they like them more than the show cuz at least they’re more accurate”. I’m guessing it’s cuz of the appearances of the kids… even tho black Grover didn’t piss as many people off. Look I think the show was just pretty good and that it should’ve been 2D animated with how similar it is to avatar but there’s no chance in hell the movies are more accurate

A whole hour of OSP talking about my favorite childhood book series? Nice!

Here is the thing I started reading Percy Jackson with a lot of knowledge on Greek mythology and sure there are inaccuracies but by the gods I love the book series so far it’s funny, it’s entertaining, and I feel like I’m slowly realizing I might have adhd but that’s a problem for another day.

Notorious Percy Jackson lover here.

Ohhhh hey its a topic i like! Cant wait to listen to this.

In the intro I thought Dom was gonna gyaaaaaatt and I wasn’t emotionally prepared for it

Used Car Salesman Hades is the name of my synthwave project

I love the idea of a sphinx hosting Jeopardy.

Omygosh Dominic! My worlds are crossing 🫨

I used to be an Athena cabin counselor for CHB in Austin

Dominic Noble?! I love it when KZreadrs i love crossover! Its gonna be a good day.

I wish this was 3x longer because it was so fun

Very fun, I was wondering if you guys were into the PJO series at all! I’m a TV only viewer but enjoyed it a lot (there’s obvious flaws but I’m here for the potential, and the parts that were good were really good!), it’s nice to hear all your different thoughts ^^
