Fair warning, the second episode of Lore Olympus that we review this week ends in a cliffhanger. It’s not one that made us rush to fast-pass more episodes though, since it only involves Kronos. We’ve got our priorities, and the mad former tyrant is gonna have to take a back seat to finding out if Persephone’s mother is going to come to her senses, or if Apollo is finally going to get what’s coming to him.
The first episode we recap does have new information about Hera’s history with Kronos, and it’s all kinds of fascinating. (tldr: Hera earned her place as Queen of the Gods, and Zeus is a great big jerk who doesn’t deserve her.) There’s even one element that made us both think of Elita-One from the IDW Transformers comic. ‘Cause we’re nerds.
Now that we’re past the summer solstice and the nights are getting longer, we’re starting to think about Fall, which makes us think about what horror movies to watch. Elizabeth listened to the Flixwatcher episode about the movie Unfriended – one of our favorites and NO we don’t think it’s annoying, shut up – which lead to recommendations about a couple of other movies along the same vein. Post a comment if you have any horror movies you think we’d like. Gore shouldn’t be over the top, although it’s not a deal-breaker. Jump scares are optional, but appreciated. Weirdness and a hard-to-describe sense of dread is mandatory.
