Has anyone seen Percy Jackson and the Olympians?

It turned out pretty good! Better than Harry Potter probably.
I dont like the actors/actresses choices in it, though. I think Harry Potter's actors are well selected becarse they look different and they really bring you into their magic world with mysteries and adventures and everything. On the other hand, thoes in Percy Jackson look more common and unharmoneous with the theme of the ancient and mysterious Greek background. Whereas the ideas and special effects are definitely cool to see.

Not yet, but I can't wait 'til the weekend so I have the opportunity. So excited for this... Clash of the Titans: The Next Generation, eh? ^_^

Im seeing it tomarrow. I really want to read the books (5 main books, 4 companion books, and an upcoming sequel series!) as I heard they were really good.

I find it funny that TWO movies with the main character named Perseus is out this year. Both deal with the gods (altho in Percy Jackson the Titans are the baddies). But Percy Jackson is more or less... "Hey! It's Harry Potter as a demi-god living in a camp/town thing with other demi-gods! And hey!
