I have to disagree. The only time the Gods had their armour on was in the very beginning when Poseidon walked out of the sea and transformed into his smaller self (at this point he started wearing a sweater and jeans, as far as I can remember) and at the Olympian Council, which makes complete sense. As Poseidon and Zeus talked on the Empire State Building and when Percy, Annabeth and Grover met Hades and Persephone in the Underworld, they all wore normal clothes. I actually liked it that way since it showed that the gods haven't completely abandoned their culture and haven't completely adapted to the modern world (Stick to the roots, you know?). Also, it would have looked ridiculous if the almighty gods wore normal clothes while having a council. It works in the books, but seriously, try imagining that in a movie... Nah, I'm glad they had their armour on.
