    Since you asked: yes, the Hades scene is a little different. In the book he is angry, and believes that Percy is the thief, sent by Poseidon to start a war. He senses the master bolt in Percy's bag before Percy himself does. Hades demands his helm back, but of course Percy doesn't have it. He's bitter and angry, and unleashes the dead when Percy escapes, but that's only because he thinks he's being forced into an unwanted war. The calmer version in the TV show is actually more mythologically accurate.

    Satan!Hades, mythologically-accurate? Pfft… and they didn’t even do anything fun with it (the ages rockstar thing doesn’t save it); at least the Disney Animated “Hercules” did something fun (as much as James Woods as a person is awful, as a performer his passion there was magnificent) And the movie is the only version where Grover stays in the Underworld in place of Sally… which also entails a lot of horny jokes because of course. *eye roll* Absolutely detest film!Grover being a complete joke, but it’s not even the worst part of those alleged movies.

    ​@@borjankosarac3645Several differences. The Underworld is not hell and Hades is not considered to be evil, he's simply the ruler over the place where the dead reside and are designated to their final resting places. There isn't any damnation involved in the underworld other than when someone is sent to tartarus for their deeds. Satan would be the overseer of hell as well as being a prisoner to it. That is where the bad people go in traditional Christian belief. Hell is a place that people are sent when the verdict has already been passed down. Whereas the underworld is where the decision is made for that.(Copied)

    I loved how they changed the betrayal scene between Luke and Percy because this one actually felt so much more emotional and heartbreaking because they were both clearly hurting and not interested in hurting each other. In the book Luke just tried to kill Percy and left but here he actually just wanted Percy to understand and join him, but was overcome by his anger at the mention of Hermes. Both Luke and Percy showed their fatal flaws in this scene, with Luke it's his anger and with Percy it's loyalty (him apologising to Luke for cutting him even though Luke was actively betraying him because he still saw Luke as his friend). I love this show

    On Poseidon’s actor, Toby Stephens (who BTW, is the son of Dame Maggie Smith): in the Tv Series “Black Sails”, which is a prequel to the classic novel “Treasure Planet”, he was plays the pirate Captain Flint. That show is phenomenal, if you haven’t watched it before it’s worth the time investment.

    The change of the dead line was to put the trio and especially Percy on a higher plane of responsibility and accountability than other demigods. To say that the fight is bigger than just this one quest which in reality it is being the war with Kronos. And that one shouldn’t give up just because the deadline passed. This makes the show more interesting than the book point. Fun Fact the man who play’s Poseidon is Dame Maggie Smith son aka Professor McGonnagal

    I dunno if anyone else has noticed this or if I'm just crazy, but it sounds like there's this soft repetitive noise almost like an owl hooting or an ocarina when Luke's dark side is being shown. I really like it. Reminds me a bit of Prowler's noise, Azula's chime, or Captain Kuro's distorted cat yowl in the LA One Piece. It started sparsely when Percy was piecing everything together, then became consistent after Luke basically admitted everything and tried recruiting Percy. If it is supposed to be like an owl hooting, my fellow book readers will understand that'd be some insane-ass foreshadowing. At least, I hope it's a character noise and not just there to make the score sound cooler, that'd make me sad.

    1. The first time percy actually sees his dad is when the king of the gods tries to personally kill him and Poseidon stops it and yields immedeately whatever war was either about to start or was possibly a day or two in. He's surrendering and giving Zeus the petty W for the sole sake of Percy's life. That's some serious show of love right there. . 2. Zeus points out that Percy is forbidden and Poseidon points out Thalia but instead of bringing shame to it he praises Thalia and appeals to Zeus' vanity (you can notice Poseidon's change in speech pattern when he's doing this) 3. This one is going to have the potential to be controversial for a few reasons, but it's my comment, I'm in the kitchen, let me cook. Lance Reddick was the perfect casting choice for Zeus and from the frame of this universe's storytelling, let me explain why. The gods are personifications of rulership over certain aspects of the world, but more importantly, because Western Civilization rose under their management (along with all the implications that would have on the world as a whole) and partly because they aren't actively worshipped as they were 2000 years ago, their guises and ways they look change to better reflect the times they live in. To give several examples of this, in order, Ares looks like a mashup of war veterans from Vietnam to the Gulf War, because hey, the greek gods live in new york and non-implicitly give their favor to america in this universe, they're gonna look like the "joe baseball" of their archetypes according at least, to western pop culture. So Ares looks badass, but he also gives the vibe of the worse aspects of american vets as well. War Isn't glamourous. Haphasteus gives the vibe of distinguised scientists from 100 years ago (or at least, the stereotype of them for the longest time), but also the dishevelment takes on the western pop culture influences of Doc Brown and Rick Sanchez. Poseidon, funilly enough, looks like the fittest version of Jimmy Buffet meets Sig Hansen from Deadliest Catch, because hey, the god of the Oceans takes looks from Margaritaville in Florida, to Dutch Harbor in Alaska. And Zeus? He's in New York, Championing a nation where most of the big Artists in the last decade or so have been African American, recently had a black president, and as king of the gods, looks the part of Authority, check check check, but also in a universe where they all stay on the 600th floor of the Manhattan building like it's an incredibly grand hotel room, who better to look like than someone who was concierge of the Continental Hotel in New York City, Charon from John Wick?
