its gonna suck no questions about that. i have no idea what rick riordian was thinking of but i really dont think the directors have even read the book personaly im not going to see the movie its gonna ruin my view of the awesome books however i do hope that one day rick riordan will sign some other directors and a diffrent company and hopefully it will be remade with actors of the right age group even if it does take a long time patience is a virtue and hopefully there will be a survey for the fans to decide the actors and for the main ones to be unknown and undiscovered actors instead of unfitting pretty faces that have 2 much publicity when that day will come i will watch the movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've loved the series from the start. And even though (oh my gods) the casting may not be the best I am looking forward to seeing the movie. They'll probably use a lot of makeup on them as well, to make them look younger. I don't really mind all that much that annabeth is now brunette and that grover is black. Personally, I like the idea of grover being black. I dunno why, but I can already picture him in that rasta cap. They could always dye annabeth's hair to blonde if they wanted to, but who knows? I'm ok as long as it follows the story line and they make the film EPIC. Personally, I want them to make all 5 movies. The actors might get a little old looking though. huh. mabye next time when they're casting for a movie they'll look more towards the right age group.

Well, if you read Rick Riordan's blog, according to his son, who was the first to ever hear the story, Annabeth started out as a brunette.

Holy Hera!!! I agree that there were some mistakes in casting, and maybe it won't be exactly what all the fans were hoping for, but the sheer fact that this incredible book, and hopefully the whole series, is being put to the screen, is absolutely the best! GO PERCY JACKSON NERDS EVERYWHERE!!! (Can't wait to see who they cast as Thalia if they make Sea of Monsters, btw.)
