Sea of Monsters Movie

[lizthewiz]

With new castings finally coming out of the framework, how are you feeling about the next movie? I know for most of us the first one was a little bit of a let down, but there is much to look forward to for the Sea of Monsters.

Can I just say Nathan Fillion as Hermes? PERFECT! Gahh, not just because I'm a super Castle fan or anything. Now this makes me want to be a daughter of Hermes even more.

Plus I'm interested to see how Anthony Head portrays Chiron.

I'll probably see it, just to see how it is as a movie, but I won't compare it to the books cuz that'll just ruin it....

As for Nathan Fillion, I haven't seen much of his work but I think he'd be a good Hermes. =]

I love Anthony is Buffy, he is amazink!
I hope he does a good job.

They recast Chiron? Weird. I thought what's-his-face was an awesome Chiron.

Dear Casting Director, take a hint and PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE recast Annabeth!

[mintaclaire]

I might actually go watch it if they recast her. She was so old and not blonde.

Also, Thor Freudenthal is directing. Aside from having an utterly awesome name, he directed the Diary of a Wimpy Kid movies, which were pretty good as well as pretty close to the books, so I really hope he doesn't screw this up.

EDIT: We have a Clarisse and a Thalia! Clarisse is Rosie...er, Glimmer...I mean, Leven Rambin. Thalia is an unknown actress named Paloma Kwiatkowski.

I liked Leven's portrayal of Glimmer, so this role's not too much of a stretch for her. And this is the first major film role for Paloma, and she looks very nice, so I hope she'll do Thalia justice, because she's awesome.

I was trying to pretend that the first movie never existed, and I'm scared that we're all being set up for another disappointment. I don't doubt Anthony Head will be a great Chiron, but when it comes down to it, Chiron isn't in much of SOM. I hope they don't screw this up...

[punkrockgirl]

I saw who they apparently cast as Thalia... but I'm wondering why the hell she'd be in the movie since she only shows up at the end of the book....

And supposedly the girl who plays Glimmer in The Hunger Games movie is going to be Clarisse......

[Awkward Avox]

Yea I saw that Leven would play Clarisse but who's playing Thalia?

[punkrockgirl]

She's an unknown actress... I don't know her name...

THEY HAVE DYED ALEXANDRA'S HAIR BLONDE.

[lizthewiz]

They moved the release date back to August 16, 2013
But it's kind of cool how it's close to Percy's birthday

[jedi4christ]

I love Alexandra Daddario and all but she just isn't Annabeth. and the completely screwed up the whole first movie! How the heck are they gonna do this?!?! They did so bad on the first one yet they had the audacity to do a second movie? really?
I hope they can at least make it decent. And Annabeth's hair is actually blonde so....

[PercyJacksonFan]

I feel as if the Lighting Thief wasn't some much as a let down because I didn't compare it to the books. But all and all I expect a lot from The Sea of Monsters Considering the fact it taking so long to come out..!!!

[lowbrassmaster]

I dunno about the movie. In latest news, Annabeth is (finally) blonde,which is good, but I really don't like who they cast as Tyson. I've only seen pictures, but he has like a dreadlock-fro thing going on... and the editing for cyclops-ifying him was REALLY bad from what I've seen. I just don't know. I had extremely high hopes for the first one, but as you will all agree (hopefully) it was absolutely and utterly terrible. *Shudder* At least Logan Lerman is hot. He's not really the right age I would say to play Percy, but still...
