To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Percy Jackson. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of greek/roman mythology most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Percy's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Ancient Greek literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Percy Jackson truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Percy's existencial catchphrase "Am I a troubled kid? Yea, you could say that," which itself is a cryptic reference to the fact that he has ADHD like other Half-Bloods. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Rick Riordan's genius unfolds itself on their books. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Percy Jackson tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
