  • I watched this because of Steve Coogan and he was only in it for like ten minutes! It was pretty cool though.

  • THE MOVIE SUCKEDDD

  • fabulous movie..n i love this trailer..its lyk a suspense thing going on

  • I saw the movie it sucks BALLS compared to the book it was the worst movie ever. the books are really good tho :P

    .

  • So, how come the teaser isn't part of the movie?

  • Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton). I've enjoyed this movie T O T A L L Y F R E E at Movie WATCHER . US

  • logan is so much hotter in this then in hoot. woow!!!! =)

  • I'm only going to see this because of Logan Lerman, haha. I do think the story looks like it would work better as a book than a movie, which looks a bit pretentious but meh.

  • i imagined things to be MUCH different in the book.

  • .....I wonder who would play Juniper :] shes my fav. Heehee iwish i could b

  • in the movie annabeth has brown hair, in the book she has blond hair =<

  • ....so what?

  • I hope they nail the special effect on peirce brosnan asa centuar gosh sounds weird thinking about it.

  • the only thing i don't like is that they're supposed to be eleven/twelve in the first book....:l

    otherwise the movie seems like it's going to be fantastic. the cast is good (pierce brosnann <333) andd yeah. it'll just be darker than the book, i think.

  • holly camolly~~ i love this book, i learned so much about greek mythology reading the series...i love the whole series...so when i heard they're making a movie of it, i was like "They better not ruin it." and i gotta say the teaser looks good. hope it turns out well ~ :P

  • idc if it tays dark the whole movies cause it looks so much cooler...it would be tight for the last olympians..when the bridge breaks'

  • no....but that a good thought..it might mean 600..to me it looks like a horseshoe xD

  • Teaser?

  • yep now that i think of it u are right and welll i guess the great prophocy will have to wait till hes around the age of 20 or 21 xD this is why they really need the authers to get involved with the movies...i mean really!

  • i think that it it good they are makin it dark it it more like life that way im not emo it just makes things look cooler

  • honestly, the book series takes him through the ages of 12 - 16. in the movie, he is already 17... what about the great prophecy? how is that going to work out? each book takes him 1 more year. 1 year closer to being 16. in this movie, he is already past that. i know movies are different than the books, but this one is completely different. honestly though, im an actor, this is my favorite series, and im kinda sad that i didnt get to audition for this. im scared for this movie.. D':

  • Wow! Your an actor. I didn't like the sound of this book, being a mythology geek myself. I know a lot more than my family, who I got told the book about. But this movie, how can I not watch it? Can you tell me more about it since you've got a place in Hollywood? I don''t mean the series, but the movie and stuff. I think the HP director will be great--anyway that's funny. 12-16. That guy looked on the verge of facial hair--beard.

  • The movie should be good. I'm pretty much addicted to the series. The only thing about the movie is that it changed so much from the books. For instance, Percy is 18, i believe, and in the book, he is 12. Annabeth is like 22 and in the book, she is also 12. It would help if they look 12, but the dont.. At all.. I'm really excited to see the movie, but I really think that theres no way its gonna be as good as the book.

  • lucky come out on your bday >:(

  • out on mi bday woop woop

  • lookin good Logan <3

  • no dude its 11

  • no its twelve

  • Percys supposed to be 13 not 17

  • as long as it stays true to the book and the series this movie is gonna kick ass=)

  • It's creepier than the book. :O

  • These books are awesome...but I'm a little upset that Percy looks like someone trying too hard to be an emo kid on a budget. I know they're supposed to be poor, but...

  • i dont think he looks like that at all. so he parts his hair to the side, its still out of his face. hoodie and jacket? not seein any emo there. plus i like how the one shot of him gettin out of the cab gives a nice impression of a sort of hoodlum but you know hes really not. Honestly i think they may need to keep it darker than the books simply to appeal to a more modern audience. Shooting olympus in the dark for example, as opposed to sunny and colorful

  • well i do agree with you on the looks on percy but the reason olympis is so dark is because zeus is mad because i think it was ares stole his master bolt.base on the book

  • it was luke but he made a deal with ares

  • u have a really good point there

  • I believe he made Olympus dark for this teaser trailer was to infer that something was wrong on Olympus. Because of all the thunder and such.

  • Well, Zeus IS the God of the Sky and he sits on a throne; so it might just be him. :-)

  • Squeee!! Can't wait =)

  • Love Logan Lerman! I've seen all the movies/shows he's been in. I can't wait to see him in this!

  • cant wait for the movie!!!!!

  • Oh my fucking God...

    This movie looks like the shit.

    I've read all the books.

  • does anybody notice in the elavator that the highest floor is 80 even though it goes up to 102

  • yeah. i noticed that, too. i thought it was strange. but if you google image search "empire state building elevator", the images that come up have the buttons going L, 2, 67, 68-89, 80. who knew...

  • If you are able to read the book, do it, if you like. Because in the book it tells that Olympos Mountain is (fictively) in the 600th floor of Empire State Building. (Naab.)

    Oh YES!!! I cant wait for the movie :(( Too bad, if 2010. Nooooooo! :((((( *bad crying*

  • good point

  • Okay...that was pretty cool!

  • Do you even know what this film/book is about?

  • Logan<333 =]

  • thats the coolest he is so hottt he is mine

  • OMJ! Logan looks sooo hoooot!!!!

  • Logan Lerman is hot <3

  • the book was very good hope this movie doesnt dissapoint me

  • i cant wait till the film comes out the books are amazing

  • Oh, will you people shut up!

    Isn't an adaption(sp) of the book! It isn't going to the exact same thing.

  • Mount Olympus was on the 600th floor in the Empire State Building..... Anyway the guy who plays Percy Is SO FRIKIN HOT!!!

  • i think the symbol in greek meant 600 maybe im wrong who knows just giving logical suggestions

  • it means 300

  • why would it mean 300?

    i mean im not saying youre wrong, im just asking, if the floor is supposed yo be 600... why would they make it 300?

    are you sure its 300?

  • This actually looks pretty good, I think if you liked Harry Potter and films like that then you'll like this.

  • This looks extremely reminiscent of Harry Potter. Hmm. Directed by Chris Columbus. Hmm.

  • It's not really, if you've read the books. The characters and everything, it has it's uniqu-ness. =)

  • im kinda sick of people bitching about logan lerman and alexandra daddario being to old to play 12 year olds.

    seriously, hollywood has always casted older people to play teens. its rare to see actual teens playing teens outside of disney channel. great example is tom welling in smallville.

    and if they tweek their ages a little, who cares? how old was frodo when he finally goes on his journey in the books? sure it messes with the prophecy in the last olympian, but they can tweek that age too.

  • i agree

  • @Anifanatic10 i don't mind them being older. there are MUCH bigger problems with the movie than that. They really should have called the movie a different name, as they did with The Secret of Moonacre (the book was called "The Little White Horse")

  • are you kidding me, i love the books, and have everyone, this is crappy. The kid sarts at like the age of 13, whats the dude they hired 19. Seriously if Hollywood thinks that there should be older people playing in kids rolls, they should just go ahead and hire a 70 year old to play the part.

  • actually he starts at 12 also thats how they do it in hollywood they r gonna make some chages like how they got a girl with stright hair playing annabeth who has curly hair

  • no that symbol means 600 it just that the button is located where the 99th floors button would be

  • This actually looks good. But if I recall, wasn't Mount Olympus on the 99th floor?

  • love percy jackson!!!!!!!!!

  • Alexandra Daddario has dark brown hair whereas Annabeth Chase has blond hair. How does that work? And when I read the book, I never pictured Grover as being black. (Not to be racist so sorry for that)

  • i know i saw a pic from the movie and they dont even put a wig on her oh well do u think theyll put gray contacts on her

  • AH :D i just finished the 5th book. Cant wait for the next Olympain series :'D even though percy wont be the main character....OH WELL!!!

    Can wait for the movie too!! Hope they dont fuck it up D:< they better do justice to my favorite book series

  • so its official the movie went into post production so there going to ruin the series with 23 year olds playing 12 year olds FU**

  • hey thats true ... great i thought this movie was going to be good but the have to go and hire old people to play the parts of 12 year old kids. ..........in a way thats kinda funny

  • Well, they kinda have to. I mean, they need someone to play the part well, but if the little kids are not good at it, then they have to go older. And I highly doubt he's 23, he looks more like 15 to me, but whatever :) I think he totally fits the part. The Harry Potter movies are getting David too old. He's like in his twenties now, lol

  • If you're talking about Logan Lerman (Percy Jackson) than he's 19. But still the perfect person to play Percy! <3

  • im pretty sure he's 17

  • Yeah, that's what I meant. I'm sorry. He's 17 but still the perfect person to play Percy! <3

  • u guys loganm lerman is 17!

  • Logan Lerman's turning 18 in January.

  • if they r gonna show this one they better contunue the whole series... im still mad at whoever made series of an unfortunate events for not finishing it

  • My favorite book series beside Harry Potter!

  • they better not cut out clarrise! they still havent announced an actress for her yet. same with beckendorf, tho he dont show up till the 2nd one.

    and what are they doing casting aphrodite, demeter, persephone, apollo, hera and athena? most of them dont even show up until the 3rd, and in minor roles!

  • Percy Jackson sounds like a pimp in the 1970's in Brooklyn lol

  • cumon percy i just need some crack .. i cant work since u broke my arm. ... shutup bitch!

  • GOD OF WAR

  • hopfully that shot is used when Chiron is ferreying them to the underworld and it shows the underworld, cause olympus should be iluminated by white light, not torchlight

  • but wasnt it night time by the time percy got to olympus? itd make sense for torch light at night.

  • thats true

  • Just seeing olympus, is it any surprise Chris Columbus is directing this? It looks exactly like Hogwarts did in the first too movies.

  • I think Logan is the right Percy Jackson, who else can play him???

  • i cant wait!!! i love the books!! everytime i saw Newyork i always thought of the book XD

  • these r great books u idiot

  • Omg haha i read these books... i never thought they were good enuf for movies tho; Christopher Columbus just wants to redo Harry Potter again :P

  • AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

    Oh yes! oh yes! FINALLY! THANK YOU, POSIDEN! and i spelled that wrong *_*

    this is amazing! can't believe it!

  • Sorry Zeus, but summoning some kid will not help you defeat Kratos. The end of the gods draws near. Muhahahahahaha!!!!!

  • i wanna see it but...

  • i think logan lerman is really cute,

    but i still think they should have cast someone a

    bit younger to play percy. i mean logan in 17 percy

    is 12 in the lightening theif.

    and whats with annabeths hair in this?

    she should have just dyed it blonde. and she is freaking 24 years old.

    but i'm still excited for this movie!!

  • Since it's directed by the first 2 HP movies director, Chris Columbus, I bet it's going to be great. Maybe it will get me into the Percy Jackson series, cuz that's how I got into the Potter series: by watching the first movie.

  • did you guys hear?!?! they changed the character Annabeth's age IN THE MOVIE to EIGHTEEN!!!!!!!EIGHTEEN!!!! and they kept percy's age the same! WTF is up with that?!?!?!?!

  • What the hell! Thats pedophila due to the fact they get together! WTF! OH MAH GOD! I don't think I wanna watch the movie anymore!

  • just hope the directors dont mess up like they did harry potter

  • I cant wait!!!! When I saw the preview in theatres, I actually cried!!!!

  • OH my gosh! I am so excited and so pissed that Alexandra Daddario is Annabeth! She's 24!!!!!!

  • DUDE!!!

    They could be making sequels, if you casted for it, you could be one of the campers at Camp Half-Blood, maybe!

    HOOOOOOOOOOLY CRAAAAAP :D

    Love this series lol

  • LOGAN LERMAN! OMGZ!

  • Oh My Gods! I love Percy, he's freaking hot! At least way more hot than what expected from reading the books. This movie is going to be freaking awsome! I can't wait!

  • I CAN"T WAIT TO SEE THAT!

  • the next big hit probably like Harry Potter

  • son of poseidon?

    olympus is located at the 600th floor of the empire state building?

    a push-pen that turns into a bronze sword called riptide?

    this is gonna be great!!!

  • its not push pen...its ballpoint! haha

  • haha! nice joke lol

  • the castle looks nothing like hogwarts....from where he is standing, one could get the idea of that but it looks like a greek temple sitting on a hill to me...

  • my english teacher loves this shit

  • yeah mine too, thats how i got into this series :D

  • OH MY GOD!!!! I LOVED THIS SERIES!

  • When me and my friends saw this before Half-Blood Prince we all thought it was a ripoff of Harry Potter (mainly because of the Hogwartish castle)

  • i am gonna show dis trailer 2 mah mom... lawl...

  • ok its not so 'bloody" harry potter crap... see their a difference... harry potter SUCKS this move shouldent... my advice looser... learn to read cause any one with a brane would love the books! and hopefuly the move will rock just like the books! you must a lazy crap head cause you probly didnt do any reserch onece so ever on the flippin book! it is so unlike the harry potters ok smarty paints.

  • well the movie has the same fucking director

  • i like how ur calling me stupid when u miss spelt half the words. like come on there underlined red for a reason

  • Have you read Percy Jackson? It's Harry Potter in a different setting. Why? Because Harry Potter is your average hero. Almost any book about a hero will have that sort of character. If you think it's going to suck, don't waste your time and money seeing it. And by the way, if you're going to diss Harry Potter, I'd like to know why you think it's crap.

  • I like the idea of what you were saying, but the entire fact that you didnt spell a sentence right without screwing up a word was disappointing

  • haha you sound like my english teacher

  • who hasn't screamed yet!

  • The movie looks good, but every ones too old for there part. Percys 16, grovers 17, and anibeths 23. there oridginaly 12. they Probably did it because they'er better actors. Also anibeths bloond( I truly imagened her brunet but I new she was still bloond). I'm not racis, but grovers bloond and whit,. Not black, but he might make the part a little more funny.

  • I read all the books, and I hope the movie rises to my expectations.

    But a lot of you are wondering why Olympus looks like the Underworld. My explanation and opinion: probably because Zeus, the God of Gods, is fricking furious that somebody stole his thunderbolt, thus there is a storm above the palace.

    Just my opinion.

    Can't wait till the movie!

    And I saw this trailer at Half-Blood Prince as well.

  • i saw teh percy jaxon trailer at half blood prince as well, was it yesterday? (july 18)

    2day (teh day i posting da comment) izjuly 19.

  • hahhahahahahahahahahahahah its god of gods

  • this movie is going to be so freaking i hope it is going to be just like the books! but in the book it says that he is wearing a backpack carrying the master bolt

  • I LOVE PERCY JACKSON! I screamed out loud in the theatres when i saw this trailer (everyone looked at me to see if i was madd :P) but i didn't care. IT's so awesome tht theyre making these books into a movie. I wanna be in the Titan's curse! :) (artemis, thalia, zoe or rachel :)) and i agree, mount olympus is supposed to be bright and awesome, not dark and hell-ish (-.- ;)

  • I screamed too.

  • *sorry that I keep replying to a bunch of comments, but after all this is a community*

    I screamed too! I saw "Some heroes are born" and I was like, "It's Percy!" And maybe Olympus looks that way here because of what's to come. I don't know, just a guess.

  • dude the second i saw the keys I WAS JUST LIKE AHHHHHHHHHHHH FREAKING A NOOOO WAYYYYYY

  • Woww this movie looks awesomee

    Except I thought Olympus wold have looked different; not so Harry potter-ish. :/

  • well the director of this movie is Chris Columbus who directed the first 2 harry potter films and hyome alone 1 and 2. He's a great director.

  • YESSS! I CAN'T WAIT! But doesn't Percy look a little old? I mean, he was 12 in the first book.

  • cant wait till it comes out. i have finished reading the books and was hoping that there would be a new series. But i got even better. The 1st film on 12th of february and then another series of books in winter 2010.

  • Siriusly?! I didn't even know they were making a movie of this until I saw this trailer at Half-Blood Prince. I'm excited!

  • i read da books. ok., this iz real. how do i know? i saw teh exact same trailer at teh theater! finally! a real trailer! (i was at teh theater watching harry potter 6 and i saw a trailer of percy jaxion and teh olympians lighning thief and came home and told mah mmo bcuz she want 2 see ddis if it were real)

  • finally!

  • Oh my gods! I have been such a percy jackson fan!!! I'v read the whole series twice, i am a part of two online fanclubs, and i'm starting to have dreams about it now!

  • ahh looks awesome i've been a fan of logan's forever so happy

  • omg i cannot wait!!

  • WILL IT BE SHOWN IN SG???

    OMG

  • OMG so cool man!! great!

  • NO NO NO!!!!

    I had High hopes for this movie, and after seeing this, i just about lost all of it. (IS THAT HOGWARTS?!?!?!)

    Here's hoping NONE of that is in the final film

  • talk about a loooooong title for a movie

  • hes not that great of an actor it looks like...ive hit elevator walls harder than that...still...itll be pretty cool

  • Two movies baised on books that I want to watch.

    Percy Jackson:lightning theif

    and

    Vampire's assistance (the book series is actually called 'Cirque Du Freak'. it's an awesome series)

  • if u dont like teh percy jaxon books, yu suck.

  • I never said I didn't like the percey jackson books. I really like them a lot, as a matter of fact, I'm almost done with the third book.

  • zoe dies

  • HA! I already past that part! You didn't spoil anything to me!

    but seriously, why do you want the ruin it for me?

  • Dear TwoNNsB,

    Producers are making movies of many books, because they are running out of ideas of their own. Percy Jackson and the olympians just happened to be one very popular, action -packed, dramatic books that would make a great film. That doesn't mean it will be one though.  -APercyJacksonFan

  • i agree about u saying dat ppl r running out of ideas 4 movies. ( and bi teh way, wich pjato book iz ur fav? i like teh first best. )

  • anybody know if there are other trailers?

    or is this the only one so far?

  • only one so far. as it gets closer to the release date therell be others (hopefully)

  • Can they make the title any shorter ?

  • The title is just supposed to be The lightning thief. The Percy Jackson and the olympians part is the series.

  • it DEFINATELY wont be as good as the book, but it might be a good movie still

  • fuck, does EVERYTHING have to b made into a movie?

  • i think so, yes. theyre even doing monopoly and i think boggle, DONT ASK ME HOW!

  • To make useless chopped up green dyed pieces of tree.

  • This is why I don't waste money on movies anymore. So stupid.

  • Comment removed

  • what the fuck O_O

  • I won the Mythology Bee trip to Greece!!!

    I get to meet rick riordan!!!

    I love Percy Jackson!!!

    He is adorable!!!

    And by the way, the reason it's dark is because it's night!!!

  • is that anthony from smosh
