well rick said in a interview that annabeth was originally a brunnette bu he changed her hair color so she looked more californian, or what ever you call people from california. so that covers that, and i agree with you, change the character ages to seventeen!!! now luke is most likely to be at least 25!!!! wow that is weird. but older ages opens up more action. so yea they may have changed the ages of percy, grover, and annabeth so they could do that. and i just now realized something! grover loooks 12 in the books but in the film he is going to look 17 but really be what, 26?! so yea i TOTALLY agree with you. -john
