Yes, they do and any body who does not like Percy Jackson and his other friends you don`t know what your missing. The Percy Jackson movie was not that good
Though others seem to think they will it seems doubtful due to the lack of crucial points needed for later books that were not included in the movie Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.
Judging from how close the lightning thief movie is to the book, probably not. EDIT: Despite the movie adaptation of "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" proved to not be true to the book, it seems that they are giving "The Red Pyramid" a try. Right now they are casting the acting roles. As far as known, the casting directors' top choice for the role of Carter is Chris Sawyer, and Hailey Grace is in their highest priority for the role of Sadie.
yes and no, but in reality, 12 seems to be the case.
The average lightning discharge seems to be between 5,000 and 20,000 amps but have been reported to reach 200,000 amps on very rare occasions.
Luke Castellan, son of Hermes. He seems cool at the beginning, but he really isn't. He tries to sneak away from olympus with it, but Ares finds him and threatens to tell on him to the other Olympians. Luke, who is on the Titan's side (who want to overthrow the gods), gets Ares to let him go by convincing him that the stolen lightning bolt would start a great war. So technicly, Luke is the theif, but Ars was a big part of the stealth as well. >:(
Lightning does indeed strike first, as thunder is the sound created by lightning. According to Wikipedia, lightning heats the air surrounding it by large quantities, which in turn causes the air to expand and create a "Sonic wave" which is similar to a sonic boom.
Percy Jackson seems very similar to Harry Potter. If Harry Potter has movies for all the books (they're still working on the last one), then there would surely be one for the Sea of Monsters. Many people like the Lightning Thief. It is a best seller. So, the chance of the Sea of Monsters movie coming out should be about 95%. I believe that it will come out in 2012 because it takes two years to film and make all those changes like they did in the Lightning Thief.
Jolt, zap, fizz, pop, crackle. (those are words I think of to describe your being STRUCK by lightning) Silent, stealthy, lethal (deadly), speedy, I can't really say 'fast as greased lightning, so I think that's all I have. It's harder than it seems....
Luke castellan At first he seems to be the nice but mischievous head of the Hermes cabin, helping Percy get settled in to camp and acting scared when a hellhound gets summoned into camp. But at the end of the book Luke reveals that he is working for Kronos, he summoned the hellhound into camp and turns out to be plotting the death of Percy Jackson Hope this helps
Believe it or not, lightning actually begins in the ground and shoots up. However, this happens with such speed that it seems that it comes from the sky.

It seems to be dolphins, and in some cases, other sharks.
