Percy Jackson post #2 (The movie, my version)

Percy Jackson's new movie is so cool! ...if you haven't read the books. Otherwise, it's still so cool! But I hate it since it doesn't follow the book. I'd probably give the movie 4 1/2 stars. It's a cool movie, but it doesn't follow the book. It follows the book, but not well. You have to read the book then watch the movie to understand.

The movie is a total remix of the book, so I thought I would make my own version too! The movie is shorter than the book, and this post is shorter than the movie, but that's okay, because we can all watch our favorite Saturday morning cartoons when the time comes. The movie is based on bit totally different than the book, and this post is the same to the movie. Don't do you're book report on this post, even if "it's still reading, just not as much!"

Zeus' world revolves around a giant clock that's 400 floors above the top of the Empire State Building. That is, until the lightning bolt in the center of the clock that powers it is removed by puke, with a capital P: Puke. You know what this dude does, until you realize you don't. This dude like to poke people, lots!

So anyways, some kids were driving backwards across the country when they attack Medusa, invade a museum, and waste their time eating cookies in a casino they found in Nevada. Las Vegas, Navada. Which is weird since I think it should be in California along with everything else.

The kids are collecting magic marbles that will turn them to smoke and take them to Olympus after they die, but they don't actually die. Then at the casino, the kids get so lazy and tired that they stay there for the rest of their lives.

Meanwhile, the gods on Olympus are panicking since they don't know when to attack each other. They become so desperate that they call upon the humans' thinking noodles (located in their head) to tell them what time it is.

The gods finally decide to make a trip to earth to buy watches. They use them all the time, especially at night when they can't get to sleep. They realize that the can glow in the dark, and they can check the time wherever they are! They couldn't do that with the other clock.

The gods convert to a new High-Tech leadership system (conveniently located on the Internet) where they manage all their games and apps, check their Facebook, and thank Steve Jobs for the awesomeness! Of course, they don't ACTUALLY thank him.

Since Puke, the Lightning Thief just wanted new gods that wouldn't embarrass him all the time, he was happy with this whole new thing. Puke gave back the lightning bolt, but nobody needed it anymore, so it just sat there growing spider webs.

Randum Fact: Frosting Grows on trees. Fine. Don't believe me, but the A/C will punish you! (You're going to be superstitious once you get too cold or too hot!). Maybe chocolate does or does not grow on trees if it should feel like it sometimes! I like chocolate frosting though, especially the chocolate, and especially the frosting, but especially the chocolate. Chocolate grows on trees, but it should still be it's own element! It has the power to heal!
