Albus Chase I understand your point about the ending. But out of curiosity how would you have liked the films ending to be that would of made it similar to the book but not exactly the same ending the book has? The main reason I ask is beside the most obvious film change of Kronos rising what other parts of the films ending did you not care for because they were not closer to the book. I mean in the book's ending Thalia is brought back to life film had that scene at the end of the film. I mean the film did a different take on the events with Polyphemus and recapturing the Golden Fleece and getting back to camp. But when I saw the film I felt the films take on those certain events didn't hurt the story.

Now with the whole issue with Kronos rising in the film my own personal take on it was it was brief enough to give the film viewers a bad omen of things to come for the characters. If they did it where it was more permit rising then I would of had a more issue with it and like you would of been very annoyed with the films change. But in the end the film didn't do that they made is rising brief enough where you got a look at bad things to come with him as a threat. Another way to look at the rising of Kronos during the films ending is trying to have film audience just feel like their watching the same ending as The Lightning Thief.

The film in the end is trying not just attract Percy Jackson Fans of the books but also other film audience viewers as well. I personally enjoyed the film and hope they eventually get a chance to make The Titan Curse.
