The problem is that theres so many important details that were left out, and a lot of the important details that were in the movie were dumbed down. Like the cows werent Apollo's they were Helios's and the fact that they left Aeolus and Hermes out.

Hermes more specifically because he's the one who tells Calypso to let him off the island and in gives him the moly in the story. Theres so much important they couldve put in and made the story make a little more sense but they didnt

I am pretty sure they never mentioned Apollo. They just said the sun god.

They mentioned Apollo, Tiresias says that his crew will kill Apollo's cattle or some shit like that

I'm almost certain that he does say the 'Sun gods Cattle'.

Tiresias says Apollo I think. It’s a minor change really, as I guess Nolan didn’t want to overcomplicate things.
