Not a classic for most people but zoomers will agree that Percy Jackson and the lightning thief was a tragedy.

Then Sea of Monsters ended up being worse somehow.

Yeah. They even got a second chance. Am opportunity to make respectable sequels for each book... But no. We can't have nice things.

Hot take but I kinda liked the percy jackson movies. Yeah they could've been done better but it was one of my favorite series and to see some parts of it visualized and on the big screen is a cool experience. Still, I'm very excited for what Rick Riordan has cooked up with Disney right now.

Yeah the new Percy Jackson series has a lot of potential and good young actors who are more accurate in terms of characters age.
