my thoughts on Percy Jackson and the Lightning thief

10 differences between the Percy Jackson book and movie

1. Movie:Miss Dodds escaped through the window
book: Miss Dodds was killed by Percy Jackson

2. Movie: Percy Jackson had an ipod touch
book: Percy Jackson did not have any mobile devices

3. Movie:camp half-blood was in a forest
book: camp half-blood was on a big grass plain

4. Movie: Luke had his own cabin
Book: Luke shared his cabin with other half-bloods

5.Movie: Chiron knew Percy Jackson was Poseidon's son
book: Chiron did not know whose son Percy Jackson was

6.Movie:Percy Jackson had to find the three pearls using a map
book:the three pearls were given to him

7.Movie:Annabeth was fighting Percy Jackson during capture the flag
book:Annabeth was teamed up with Percy Jackson during capture the flag

8.movie: Hades appeared after the capture a flag to demand for the lightning bolt
book: a hellhound appeared and tried to kill Percy Jackson

9.movie: Medusa wore sunglasses
book: Medusa wore a veil

10. movie:on mount olympus, all the gods were present
book: only Poseidon and Zeus were present


I preferred the movie to the book as the battles are cooler to watch than to read. My favourite scene was when Percy Jackson and company fought a hydra. As Percy Jackson cut off all the heads, two more grew back. So Percy Jackson was fighting a ten headed hydra. Luckily, Grover used Medusa's head to freeze the hydra and it turned to stone.
