WATCHING PERCY JACKSON and the Olympians | First Time Reaction & Review!!! WHO IS YOUR DADDY!?! 1X1 

Man done pulled up all the Harry Potter references after watching the series 😂🔥🔥

The pen having a cap and not being a click pen is true to the books.

Damn for a second I panicked & thought y’all were gonna watch the movie (phew). The show is LIKE THAT! 🔱

Dude I'm so thrilled you're doing this show

it’s PERSEUS. not persinius lol LMAO HE THOUGHT THE MINOTAUR WAS GROVER this pen is book accurate lol. it’s meant to look like a regular pen “95% booty” HAHAHA besides some themes, no it’s not based on Harry Potter

17:11 girl, like she said: WE ARE AHEAD SCHEDULE 😭. She was supposed to have a whole night to tell him everything

i knew she was about to say the mortal instruments when she saw percy drawing 😭😭😭 we need a accurate show/movies adaptation about that, cause the movie was ok and the show changed so much

The 100 reference was on point 😂

The book explains the stepdad a bit better. Sally (the mom) didn't love him, but she chose to be with him because according to the lore, some humans' scent is so repulsive to monsters it will mask the scent of a demigod. She chose to be with Gabe to protect Percy. As you'll see, she's the real MVP of the series here but I won't say any more to avoid spoilers. Anyway in the book the stepdad is even referred to as "Smelly Gabe" lol Also Cari is right, a lot of fantasy literature, especially kids' lit, shares the same tropes. I'm studying creative writing right now and hope to become a children's fantasy author, and it's pretty much impossible to break away from the tropes entirely. If you guys ever watch Narnia, you'll see some similarities as well. There's also a phenomenon called "comparison titles" in the book/publishing world, where before you submit a novel to agents or publishers you find books that are similar in content to yours to give them a quick idea of what your book is about and who it should be marketed to. So drawing comparisons in some way is actually necessary. Marketing books as "x story meets x story" is a trend now as well, so for example if I was trying to submit Percy Jackson to an agent I might advertise it as "Harry Potter meets Greek mythology." It's gimmicky but it's a very fast way of explaining the gist of what you've written to someone who is considering whether they can make money off accepting and selling your manuscript lmao Anyway I'm so glad you're reacting to this, excited to see the rest!

I read the book, and this series so faithful. The movies on the other hand is a Clash of the Titans wanna be lol, this series is subtle but better for me

If you look in the background, you can see one of the fountain streams pull the girl into the fountain. So it’s anything like force powers.

Damn, this woman is a crazy nice addition! Would love to watch you two w my other dawg aswell

I love that you're reacting to this. I loved the show a lot (I'm also a book fan) so I'm interested to hear your thoughts on it.

YO THE FLASH OF CLARKE FROM THE 100 love that show.. would love to see y'all do a reaction to it

This is already my favorite reaction! Can't wait for more!!

Not y’all calling that man Geoffrey 😂 That’s Glynn Turman, a whole different legend. Preach from Cooley High?! Colonel Taylor in A Different World?! I feel old and my mom is only 49 😅

19:29 the cap pen is actually more accurate to the books. Percy has adhd so giving him a clicky pen as a sword would be a bad idea lol he would probably click it open a lot

A First Time Reaction to "Big Trouble in Little China" would be the best from y'all. And maybe "The Last Dragon" too. Would be comedic gold!

There is a reason why she's with that guy (not love) they don't explain it in the TV show so far or in the terrible movies. But in the books it is explained that the mom picked him purposely because his body odor was so strong that magical creatures couldn't smell Percy over mom's boyfriend when he was around that man. So his strong body odor kind of shielded Percy's half blood smell.

yes! Just watched this series can’t wait to watch yall react

Cant wait for yall to do episode 2!!!

not her giving him all the wrong info😭 his name is perseus not persineus, the statue he and his mom were looking was not his dad, it was the hero perseus from greek legends, who sally named percy after. he’s a half-blood, as in half god, not a wizard with one muggle parent. The only similarity is the word. Hermione isn’t a half blood either btw she’s muggle-born. Both her parents are human/muggles.

The filch reference 😂

Yaaaaay!! So glad y'all are watching this! Can't wait to see what yall think!!

Well done sharing all the spoilers with someone who knows nothing about Percy Jackson! 👍👏👏👏👏

Welcome back, Carriana!

I was WAITIN for this one!

These books and characters are my childhood. I hope y’all enjoy this series and i praying for a second season. -a cabin 6 kid

Adison's reaction to the "golden" snitch - Grover, is actually gold!

Just a point of information. Hermione is Muggle-born (two non-magical parents) Snape and Voldemort are Half-bloods (one non-magical and one magical parent) and Harry is also considered Half-blood because his mother was Muggle born and his father was Pure blooded. Great reaction video as always, Love from 🇯🇲❤

LOVE this show!! im so excited!!

Hermione is a mudblood-not a half-blood. Snape was a half-blood.

AAAA IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOREVEER

I think it’s a half hour series so they will give more details as they go. Grover is amazing, just wait.

So happy to see you doing the series and not the movie 😂

dont be so hard on grover 😭 if percy survived his last year at that school was because of him!!! also i think he was hurt, that’s why percy was helping him climb the mountain and why he couldn’t help or stop him !!!

If this series ever reaches its spin-off then riptide has to be uncapped and not “clicked” otherwise…..

The movies are awful adaptations of the books, the series is more faithful even though have some changes

In the books Sally married Gabe because he stank really badly and covered Percy's scent from monsters.

I wish Adison watched the movies first so he could fully understand how great this series is 😂

Mortal instruments is my favorite series of books

imma need episode 2 assp

3:01 there’s NO WAY y’all are disrespecting my girl Clarke Griffin like that

The sword in the book was a cap pen not a click pen

You’ll learn quickly why the fandom calls him Percy Stand-on-business Jackson!

I’m just happy to see more people experience Percy closer to the books! He’s built different

Honestly watch the first movie too for laughs. Don’t touch the second one though

Bruh where lord of the rings at

Actually not hermione its harry who’s a half blood 😂

saying yk what percy jackson based on the movies is WILD!

This was a great reaction. When is the next Lord Of The Rings reaction ?

Catching fire should be first

The bailpoint pen is exactly like the books, the movies are shit

What is your FAVORITE Fallout game. Mine is 4

That ain’t Jeffery that’s dr.war from a different world !!

When are y’all going to finish bel air been waiting 😊

Where did the "N" come from when you said Percsius.

We need Hunger Games series back

Great attempt but she can go, bring Brandon back 😂 jkjk. But his name isn’t “Percennius” or whatever tf you said its simply Perseus. Plus good thing he never seen the movies or read the books, we want that fresh take!

YES! I'm so glad ur watching the show! The movie sucks so I'm glad u didn't waste ur time with that 😂

Oh no

Was wondering how you folk were going to handle it when Percy brings up "Jesus". The connection is obvious - a demi-god occurs when a god has sex with a mortal. Whoever the author of the book called _Matthew_ was, he knew Greek stories and added the whole incarnation by a god impregnating a virgin, then the author of _Luke_ modified it to fit his own beliefs. It's awkward to bring up around evangelical Christians, they don't like to talk about it, but the "Christmas story" is really a variation on Greek demi-god stories.
