I Plunge to My Death

I Plunge to My Death is an amazing episode. I have watched all the episodes in this series and all of the episode were really good. Yes, all 4 of them. With an exception of I Become Supreme Lord of the Bathroom ( S1 E2 ), every episode seems to get better in my eyes. Every episode ( besides S1 E2 ) has more heart and more action than the last episode. Even though I liked this episode a lot, I noticed something about one of the characters. That character was Percy. In some scenes Percy looked a bit pale. He had big bags under his eyes, and his face looked slightly white. I don't mean the whole episode, but I mean some scenes near the end. I mean, this stuff happens through. Believe it or not, I got hit in the face with a snowball right today and right now there's a lot of red stuff on my face. Really I wonder why the actor for Percy looked like that. In all though, I give this a 8.8 out of 10.

I'm so glad they made this into a series. They are doing a fantastic job but 33 minutes? That is not enough time with these characters and this story. I need more! I do hope they are planning to do more than this one book because these kids are incredible and perfectly cast. I look forward to all the adventures they will have together.

I'm not sure why it won't let me post a review that is this short so I'm going to just keep writing until they say I can post something about this show, it's wonderful cast and this fantastic story. I am waiting for Disney to green light season two. Please please.

This episode felt a lot like a classic filler. And yet it was such an important episode to really showcase the relationsip and the perspective the gods have with their children. It was also really beautiful to see Percy's hero building and his growing relationship with annabeth. We never really got to see them together like in the books in the original movies so I'm really looking forward to how they build that.

Moreover, the duality of how loyal annabeth is to her mom and how percy sees his dad is so fascinating. It gives such an honest look at parenting and how we see high powers in the world. I can't believe we're left off at a cliffhanger, quite literally. But introducing percy's powers little by little is really smart because they can use them as twists especially for people who've never read the books or watched the old movies. Although some parts are starting to feel a bit rushed and there are a few changes with the book that i'm noticing. I hope they stay true to the heart of the story and the characters.

This episode hit different for soooo many reasons. Definitely the best one so far-it blew my mind to bits.

Sitting and seeing so many iconic elements come to life from the book, was almost surreal-but if I had to pick the parts that stunned me the most in this episode, it would probably be as followed.

-Echidna: I didn't think it would be possible for one of the monsters in the storyline to be cooler and scarier and more realistic then Medusa was in the previous episode, but Suzzane Cryer just smashed through all of my expectations. She was so sweetly dangerous-it gave me goosebumps. I'm heartbroken that we won't be able to see more of her acting in later episodes.

-Percy getting poisoned: I swear that whole situation had me sitting on the edge of my seat. Especially with how pale he got-it just made the effects of the poison so much noticeable and cinematic. And walker scobell played out being weak and in pain so well!

But apart from just the acting, I really think this was a key part in the story, because for the first time, we get to see the side of Percy, who is more than willing to sacrifice his life to save his friends. And the drama of that scene where he locks himself with Echidna and the Chimera...my heart was POUNDING.

Special mention of the incredible effects of this episode-ESPECIALLY the Chimera...like it looked so realistic!!!!!

And the falling from the arch scene-so dramatic. I loved it so much.

Please keep it up guys!!! U give me something to look forward to every week😆

It's funny how the feature review criticized the episode...and yet rated it with an eight. Go figure.

Anyways, this episode felt formulaic and like it was just going through the motions to move the story along...and when it began to gain traction, like when it seemed like percy and whatsherface were bonding, it moved on to something else...i hope the rest isn't like this because i was enjoying the first few episodes...i'll, of course, give it another two episodes before i decide whether to continue watching or bail...this was me stretching to make the required characters. How does one speak about something that there was not much to tell about? Ridiculous imposition, the minimum character regulation.
