There we go.

I'm not ACTUALLY a whore. Jerk.

And I don't actually have a mustache.

[Shorty]

I am loving this.

[Quindiana Jones]

Okay, I made one for myself too. This is very addicting. :]

[Shorty]

I LOVE IT

[Jinx]

I hate Dany so much. This scene is just like. Omg. Amazing. BITCH GOT TOOOOOOLD.

[Freya]

Dany isn't THAT bad. She's just a young girl who is told she's the heir to a throne.

[Del Murder]

Also remember the inbreeding.

[The Man]

Lots of people seem to expect Dany to be super mature since she's a ruler while forgetting that she's a teenage girl. Teenage girls (and teenage boys) are legendarily stupid. Just because she's a ruler doesn't mean she should be immune. It's honestly a miracle she does as many things right as she does.

[Del Murder]

Especially since she is a heavily inbred teenage girl.

[Formalhaut]

I actually am quite sympathetic towards Dany actually. I don't quite understand ALL the hate towards her. Sure, her storyline thus far has literally only been "Find ships, find an army, find money" and so far has been very, very dull. But it's not her fault that her storyline is below par. I think Dany's fine. There's more annoying characters in my opinion. Stannis now... I find him insufferable.

I've fully watched Season Two!! Haha! I've caught up. And the premiere over here in England is the 1st of April on Sky Atlantic. Glad that I've caught up in quite a short time. My thoughts on Blackwater was just in one word: epic. Easily the best episode thus far. Poor Tyrion though. He did so much, and got so little.

I watched the Season Two Finale and thought it was better than Season One's finale, by a long mile. My favourite scene in the episode (indeed, perhaps this season) was the scene with Luwin's death, and the boy's reactions. I found that quite sad. I really liked Luwin...

But yeah. Enjoyed Season Two. It was alot less 'political' than Season One. With season one, virtually every episode was taken up with Eddard Stark's investigation. This season brought more battle, bloodshed to the mix.

I've rambled on too much now. But to conclude: cannot wait for season III!

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

Lots of people seem to expect Dany to be super mature since she's a ruler while forgetting that she's a teenage girl. Teenage girls (and teenage boys) are legendarily stupid. Just because she's a ruler doesn't mean she should be immune. It's honestly a miracle she does as many things right as she does.

People also forget that while she is a Targaryen (which have been more allowing for female rulers), that she was the third child of Aerys II and Rhaella. In other words, she wasn't ever expected to rule and no one bothered to train her as such. Moreover, up-until the events of the first book, it was likely that she would have been Viserys' sister-wife in the Targaryen tradition. Also, the fact that she was essentially raised by Viserys as well since her mother died in childbirth, doesn't bode well for her education, especially given how horrid of a ruler Viserys would have been had he lived. Oh, and she was 14 in the beginning of the novels (I think 16/17 for the TV series). Basically, she was never considered to be a ruler and wasn't trained to be one. Essentially, she had nothing to go on to knowing how to rule, except for the advice of an exiled knight. All she learned as a leader was through trial and error. Let's also factor in the fact that people were half-expecting her to be insane like daddy-dearest as well.

All these facts taken together shows that as a leader, the stacks were not in her favour. Yet, she grows and learns from her mistakes. Hell, if you want to compare her to someone look at Joffrey. He was raised (albeit Cersei played her hand in there as well) since childhood to be king and he's wretched one at that. I'd take Dany over Joffrey anyday. At least Dany tries and resembles a human being in the process.

[The Man]

Yeah, compared to almost every other contender for the throne, Dany is by far the least of many evils. The only possible exception is Robb, who's dead, and shared a lot of the same Honour Before Reason flaws his father did anyway. Then again, after the events of A Dance with Dragons, it is not entirely implausible that Theon might be able to be moulded into a good ruler, but he is so thoroughly broken right now that there is little chance of that happening. And I suppose Sansa has a reasonable chance at becoming an effective ruler too now that Littlefinger is trying to mould her in his image.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I WANT TO READ YOUR SPOILERS BECAUSE THEY'RE LIKE HALF YOUR POST, BUT I HAVEN'T READ ADWD YET. :(

[The Man]

The last two spoilers are AFfC spoilers, actually, so if you've read that you can read those. And actually if you're more than halfway through ADwD then my other spoiler is probably not going to cause you any surprises at this point; it's not like I'm spoiling some shocking event at the end of the book.

[kotora]

That's okay, the only things you miss out on are overly lengthy descriptions of meals, and pointless POV plotlines that go on forever, without anything really happening, until the last quarter of the book.

If Jon Snow is not dead he was making to be a decent leader as well.

Yeah, those weren't anything shocking.

[Jinx]

I've been taking screencaps from my rewatch and adding fun things to them.

Here is one such thing.

[Del Murder]

Don't quit your day job.

[Jinx]

D:

I just thought his face in that picture priceless.

[The Man]

Fyi, definitely don't click on TSoL's spoiler if you haven't finished ADwD. That one is definitely something people might not predict.

Kevan could have been a good ruler too. As Varys himself pointed out, he was cleaning up Cersei's messes too effectively.

[Lonely Paper Star]

I thought so, too. I was pretty impressed and glad to see something good come out of the Iron Throne, but well... Varys happened.

I was sad when Kevan died. :<

[Jinx]

Varys is one of the greatest characters in the series. And I thought that all of that added a new facet of his character.

Hate the game, not the player.

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

I really want to see Varys' whole game plan, because as much as it has become more and more obvious, I think there is much more at play than he is letting on. I honestly am suspicious of Aegon VI; there is evidence to believe he is legit, but then again he appears rather late in the game (pun intended).

I wonder how deep Varys' connections go. He seems to be loyal to House Targaryen but to what extent and to who? Will he try to reconcile Aegon VI and Dany? Or play one against the other? The title of the latest novel almost suggests that given where it comes from in the history of Westeros. What other schemes does he have going and with whom?.

Let's face it the most dangerous characters in regards of playing the game are Varys and Littlefinger. Though I got a feeling Sansa may ultimately play a hand in the latter's downfall.

[Jinx]

Isn't Dany still next in line for the throne? Rhaegar may have been the heir to Aerys, but he was never king. Dany is the last child of Aerys, so even though she is female, the true line of succession should be first to her, THEN to Aegon.

I don't think this is a spoiler, as it is talked about in both the show and the book, but go ahead and

I was just thinking this morning...does Dany understand what her father was really like? She keeps talking about being the dragon, and the honour and birthright of the Targaryens, etc etc. Keep in mind, most of the stories she'd heard about the Targaryens and Westeros were from Viserys. The others were from people who wanted to manipulate to see Viserys/Dany on the throne. They're also the same people saying that people are secretly wishing for the Targaryens to come back. (And we as the reader/viewer know this isn't true--at the very least, we never see anything that makes us believe that.)

So, does she really know? If she did, would she be so proud of him? Would she feel that Westeros was still hers, or at least understand why people supported the Usurper?

I figure no, because Dany is a weak, entitled brat who expects everyone to love her. But even still. What do you guys think?

The thing is though, in the Varys agrees with the rest of the small council to assassinate Dany. Were it not for Jorah's change of heart, she would have definitely drunk that poison.

Uh, babes. That is a SERIOUS book 5 spoiler. You might want to unquote!

Keep in mind, that scene was taken from book 1. And no one knows who Varys is loyal to, or what his game is. ;) Read the books, and you'll understand why he did what he did. He's a manipulator. And also the best goddamn character in the series.

[Ouch!]

That's not at all how a patriarchal monarchy works. Rhaegar was the heir, and Aegon was his heir. As soon as Rhaegar died, Aegon became the heir to the throne. It does not matter that Rhaegar himself never became king. Viserys only became the heir after Rhaegar's line (the line of Aerys's first son) was extinguished. Aegon's claim as first son of the first son of the king was better than Viserys's claim as second son of the king.

Oh. Okay. :shobon:


Well....this would just be fixed if Dany and Aegon get married like two good Targaryens would.

I hate you all.

[Del Murder]

So many spoilers I can't open!

[Jinx]

I thought you'd read the books, Del! Hasn't Miriel read them? I assumed you had too.

Watching Robb and Talisa's wedding scene. Did it bug anyone else that they named the Stranger in their vows? When in some book it explicitly says that no one ever says the Stranger's name in shit like that, because it's bad luck or something?

They said that in the T.V series as well. Of course, the Stranger is often associated with death, isn't it? I wonder what that's foreshadowing. :p

Spoiler tags are your friend. Even if it's a vague thing like this, you kind of made it obvious what happens! - Psy

[Psychotic]

Hey Del here's a spoiler you CAN open!

Pod becomes King of Westeros. Forever. And everyone else who is ever named in the books DIES.

[Del Murder]

I've only read books 1 and 2. Miriel has only read the prologue of book 1. Wasn't her thing.

I may cave at some point and just read ahead, but I do like finding things out for the first time through the show.

[Jinx]

Hey Del here's a spoiler you CAN open!

This would be amazing. I love him so much. <3 I even made a Facebook status about it last night.


And, oh. :shobon: There is something that'd be fun finding out on the show, as it'd be a surprise. But I coulda sworn Miriel had read them! Oh well. :)

[NorthernChaosGod]

I can't read any of those spoilers. I really need to get book 5. :(

I figure no, because Dany is a weak, entitled brat who expects everyone to love her. But even still. What do you guys think?

You should go back and reread ADwD because those issues are address or attempted to. I get that you don't like Dany but your judgement about her is heavily clouded. It is unlikely Dany expects everyone to like her since up-until her relationship with Khal Drogo, her main human relationship (her brother) was abusive. 14+ years of abuse will do that to you. Moreover, given the situations she has overcome she isn't weak. I will not say she doesn't have flaws, she does. Many of them due to her young age: she's self-righteous, prideful, quick to anger, naive/innocent, among other things. Weak? No. Maybe a little crazy, but not weak. A weak person could not do half the stuff she did.

Also, all her knowledge of her family up-until recently in the series came from her brother, Viserys. Who, as I recall, didn't spend much time with his father. Moreover, I think he was completely removed from the Red Keep towards the end of Aerys the Mad's reign. He didn't get to see his father's fall and as a kid was most definitely kept out of the loop. So yes, Dany was obviously bias about her dad because the only source of information was her brother. It is only later, in her encounters with Selmy Barristan that she gets a much better understanding of the cruelty of her father.

Mostly, it seems like you are projecting Viserys' flaws onto Dany which is severely unfair. Given if you take their leadership and ability to move people to their cause, you can see the Viserys serves more as a foil for the type of ruler Dany is becoming. She may not be the cleverest girl, but she isn't stupid. She saw what her brother's behaviour got him. I am not saying that she isn't without flaws; the books do acknowledge that through other characters. But it is not the picture you are painting.

As for people whispering about the return of the Taragryen to Westeros? It is fair to put some of that on Viserys' conceit. Yet, at the same time it is basically what it appears that Varys is planning by pushing Westeros in ruins and setting it up to be saved by a Targaryen (assuming that is his plan and not just another front of his).

[Jinx]

Dany never listens to people's advice, and instead does what she wants. And then she smurfs everything up because she didn't listen to advice. Then she takes it out on the people who gave her the advice she didn't take and expects them to clean it up.

She's a brat.


Also, for me, Viserys and Dany are very similar characters. So I feel that their flaws are one and the same. It's just she's too wrapped up in herself and feeling important because of her damn dragons to realize she's battrout insane. Of course, she probably wouldn't either way...I odn't think she'd ever admit to herself she was crazy. But, you get my point.

[Lonely Paper Star]

So supposedly Gendry will take up Edric Storm's storyline. In a preview (http://winteriscoming.net/2013/03/new-preview-promises-revenge/) posted on WIC, Melisandre is briefly seen talking to a dark-haired young man. From behind, he does kinda look like Gendry.

That would make sense. If I remember correctly Gendry hasn't played much of an important role since Harrenhal/the Brotherhood Without Banners. This would be a good way to keep his character relevant/watchers emotionally attached to him.

Right. I wouldn't mind it. More Joe Dempsie is fine with me.

Some people in the Gendry x Arya fandom (which I'm unashamedly a part of... kind of) is freaking out a little, though. Lol. They want their Peach Brothel/Acorn Hall/Acorn Dress stuff. *shrugs*

[Ouch!]

But this makes it entirely unlikely that Gendry gets all up in his half-sister without even knowing its his half-sister.

[Jinx]

He's referring to where Bella (or whatever her name is) approached Gendry at the brothel wondering if he wanted her to "ring his bells." She claimed to be one of Robert's bastards.

[Jinx]

Oh dude, I totally missed that part. xD

People give her shitty advice. Most of them just want to use her for her dragons. I'd ignore them too.

[Jinx]

Fair enough.

But the choices she makes on her own are still terrible.


And no, her being young isn't an excuse. In Westeros, she's basically an adult woman. She considers herself and adult, and a fucking Queen, and does adult things. I don't care if she's only 13-15 years old. It's not an excuse.

[kotora]

Dani doesn't need good decisions, she's got the plot on her side. Every time trout is about to go down for her some deus ex machina comes out of nowhere and saves the day.

[Formalhaut]

Today's Sunday, meaning it's the US premiere time for Season Three! I've got to wait till tomorrow, unfortunately.

I'm sure we're all waiting patiently for Valar Dohaeris. While your waiting, feel free to enjoy this stunning rendition of the opening theme music (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OWQXQgHgq8).

I'd put a Youtube tag in, but it never seems to work.

[Lonely Paper Star]

Watching HBO2's marathon of S2 right now. Hyyypppeeeddd.

And even after watching, several times, the episode where Theon decapitates Rodrik Cassel, his last line to Bran and Rickon and their crying faces still make me tear up. Maybe I'm just ultra sensitive today.

[Jinx]

What does he say?

[Lonely Paper Star]

What does he say?

Bran kept crying/pleading to Theon while they prepared the execution. Then Rodrik said something like, "Don't worry child. I'm going to join your father."

Then it cuts to the boys' poor faces.

[Formalhaut]

I found that scene very sad, but I also found the death of Maester Luwin in the Godswood equally as sad. Pretty much, both those deaths were quite heartbreaking, and it is really because of those boy's faces.

[chionos]

FOUR HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


!!!!!!!!!!!




THAT'S 240 MINUTES!!!!!

WHICH ISN'T REALLY A LOT AFTER WAITING 300 DAYS!

Good for you. Here in the UK, I'm waiting until Easter Monday for it's premiere. Nevermind, I'm enjoying myself with this programme recap of Season Two, as told by the actors and actresses. It's a nice little recap.

[chionos]

Sorry Form, it was not right of me to forget my European brothers and sisters. I wasn't trying to rub it in your face.










In any case.

222 minutes!


Fend for yourselves, rest of the world, I hope you're ready for spoilers!

[Jinx]

Easter Monday? Is that a thing?

Brits are weird like that. They don't respect things like tradition or days of the week.

According to Wikipedia, it is!

This really sets up the stage for a joke about Jesus going back to the cave the next day, saying "I don't do Mondays!," and then saying to his disciples, "The Lord commandeth thee to bring me lasagna."

This, too. I'm pretty impressed with the young actors on this show, overall. Especially considering that they have had few to no previous acting gigs.

[Jinx]

I'm impressed by how Isaac Hempstead Wright is growing up.

That kid is turning into a serious cutie.

I KNOW RIGHT. When I saw interview pics of him, I had to do a triple take because omg he's growing up and he's growing up pretty well. Same with Maisie. She has curves to show off now. WTF.

Now I feel old.

[Freya]

It was alright. Everyone in my viewing party who hadn't read the books freaked out about Whitebeard though.

[Aulayna]

It's a shame it wasn't a two hour special really. It felt like one of those episodes that was just putting pieces on the board - which is a bit of a slow way to start off the new season. I may have to rewatch it but there weren't really "omg" moments for me.

[Psychotic]

I remembered the thing about this show is that it's sometimes a bit disconnected because most characters only get one scene per episode. Heck, no Arya or Bran at all in this one! Not that I mind, I find them both a bit dull. Mind you, I also find Dany dull but I quite enjoyed her section of the episode.

[Miriel]

That's the same reaction I had. I thought it would have been a much stronger premiere if they made it 2 hours and we got to see all the characters.

[Jinx]

I think for a regular episode it was good. On the bandwagon that it was quiet for a premier.

I loved Winterfell smoking in the opening. Not sure why the showed it, though, since Winterfell wasn't in this episode...

I loved Margaery's scene in Flea Bottom. Like, I know she's ruthless and wants to be queen, but I felt like that was a real moment. And I love that Cersei's scared, because she knows Margaery is winning the love of the people/will win the love of the people.

Despite not liking Dany, her scenes were nice. The dragons! Also, Barristan Selmy is awesome.

[Del Murder]

It was good for an opener. Agree it should have been longer.

For an episode that focused on some of the more boring storylines (Dany, Jon, Stannis), I liked it.

[Formalhaut]

Heck, no Arya or Bran at all in this one!

I think it says here:Game of Thrones producers say season 3 as big as were going to get (http://www.hitfix.com/whats-alan-watching/game-of-thrones-producers-say-season-3-as-big-as-were-going-to-get#mCLaJIPgZQsyEI3y.99)


Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) initially appeared in a few scenes in the season 3 premiere, but the producers felt the episode was getting too crowded and moved her scenes back to the second episode. This wasn't the first time, nor will it be the last, where scenes shot for one episode wind up in another, with the only thing restricting them being the idea that each story thread happens in order, roughly in synch with the others.

So basically, they moved some of her scenes from the first episode to the second.

[Bunny]

That was one of the worst April Fools jokes I have ever seen. Why do people keep trying this sort of thing without putting in any actual work to make it seem reasonable.

Really, what HBO should have done is instead of showing the premiere, it should have been just an hour and a half of the Iron Throne.

It doesn't have to be believable to be funny! Lighten up a bit.

But it wasn't even that funny.

[Formalhaut]

The UK premiere ended earlier, so I'll give my first thoughts in spoiler format:



- I quite liked Margaery's performance this episode. While I do question her motives behind helping the poor orphans, nonetheless it does show a nicer side to her character than Queen Cersei and further alienates her and make her look uncaring

- I felt for Tyrion this episode. Ostracised by virtually everyone it appears. Even Bronn, while still a friend, is driving a harder bargain than usual.

- I quite liked the introduction to Astapor. During the 'translation' scenes with Dany and that nipple-cutter, I could tell that Dany actually understood the words being spoken, but chose to use a translator anyway while keeping her linguistic skill hidden. Dany must have knew she was being called a whore. It's quite clever actually, because they will think she's a dumb foreigner and speak potentially revealing snippets of information while in her presence. Intriguing I say.

[Jinx]

I don't think she knew what they were saying. But she probably knew it wasn't nice.

[Formalhaut]

I don't think she knew what they were saying. But she probably knew it wasn't nice.

They were speaking Valaryian probably seeing how their in Slavers Bay. Dany grew up on Essos, so she'd probably be taught or have a understanding of the Valaryian language. I think the acting as well made it slightly more obvious as well.

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

It is quite possible that Formy is right since that was the case in the book.

[Jinx]

Was it? I don't even remember.

[Bunny]

They did a good job reintroducing the characters and letting the audience see where each storyline was at without going a bit to overboard. The exclusion of Arya and Bran was a really good idea, as it would have been a completely clusterfuck had they tried to keep them in there. Sad that Strong Belwas won't be in the third season though.

It wasn't as action packed but it was pretty solid.

[McLovin']

I got to see Jon Snow be Jon Snow. That was enough. Also damn that demon girl thing was creepy. And freakin Obi wan or whoever was like something out of a FF game.

The women in the show are also seriously hot. Margery or however you spell it (Joffrey's fine fine honey) is so fucking hot. God damn. That smirk. Fuck.

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

Was it? I don't even remember.

Yup it is how she gets the Unsullied. She plays being the ignorant, stupid foreign girl and scams the man out of his army.

[edczxcvbnm]

I liked the opening to the season just fine. The opening and ending episodes of the seasons seem to be more about setting the stage and resolving the stage. If this were a normal show then the end of season 2 would have ended during the battle on the shore. Probably right as soon as Tyrion got slashed it would fade to black. What will happen? Tune in next season to find out! This is not that sort of show. This episode was more about setting up motivations and the paths people are about to take and that is fine by me.

Also, I am actually really surprised people don't care for Daenerys all that much. Her story I find to be one of the more interesting ones. Her, Jon Snow and Tyrion are the ones that I am most interested in.

[Aulayna]

I thought that the subtitling was supposed to indicate what she (Daenerys) understood and what she didn't which is why not all of that guys babbling was subbed.

[NorthernChaosGod]

If I remember correctly (it's been quite some time), she understood them just fine and all the subtitles were just things that weren't actually be translated.

[Shlup]

FOUR HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for you. Here in the UK, I'm waiting until Easter Monday for it's premiere. Nevermind, I'm enjoying myself with this programme recap of Season Two, as told by the actors and actresses. It's a nice little recap.
Oh boo-hoo, guy who just caught up a few days ago. xP

One of her shining moments.

Good episode. I imagine things will pick up quickly, seeing as they have a looot of story to cover in 10 hours.

[Formalhaut]

Based on episode titles, Episode 9 is called "Rains of Castamere". That is a song that is sung as the signalling for the Red Wedding so it might be for that. Given they will probably give alot of coverage to that, they really do have to cover alot in the remaining 9 hours.

Not really. They have 19 hours to do the other events in Storm of Swords and, while there is a significant amount of important events happening in the book, they also have the option (and will likely take the opportunity) to move things into the fifth season, since some of the core characters are missing from that (Dany, Tyrion, etc.) I do not think the Red Wedding is going to have the same episode dedication that the Battle of Blackwater did as it was a relatively quick thing with a strong focus on the various reactions across the realms.

[Loony BoB]

I struggle to read this thread as I never know if the spoiler tags are spoilers for the show that was just on or spoilers for the future of the show (ie, from books or leaks). :( Either way, I'll offer my thoughts on what happened on the show that has just finished: It was alright. I agree it could have been a lot longer, but I think that's mostly me being greedy for the entire series to be released in a day. :p I liked pretty much everything, although the Stannis stuff was eh... if only because I think the red lady is a proper evil bitch and I don't like seeing the good guys lose. Such is life in good stories, though. I hope he gets something good happening to him in the end. Beyond that, I was intrigued by the developments in... Astapor, was it? Yeah, I think that's the one. I'm keen to find out what happens next, and am starting to consider reading the book series from book two onwards, finally... but then, I'm halfway through The Uncanny X-Men and I don't want to quit now. Damn having so many very long things to read through at once.

Anyway, bring on the next episode!

[Formalhaut]

I find the Stannis storyline insufferable. Only Davos makes it really worth watching for me.

[Loony BoB]

Glad I'm not the only one! Davos ftw.

[kotora]

It's done much better in the books (though in ADoD Stannis spends most of his time gritting his teeth while being stuck in snow and praying for miracles, but then again nothing really happened in that book). Everything that's not Lannister or Stark related has been cut and distilled to the point where they barely resemble the fairly self-contained adventures of most POV characters in the books.

[The Man]

Not that there was ever any doubt that it would be, but GoT has officially been renewed for its fourth season. And there was much rejoicing.

Yeah, and wasn't Mance playing a harp/lute/whatever when John met him? Cos John just thought he was some guy playing music. I liked that sort of whimsy.

[Quindiana Jones]

Aye, I don't think Caesar has much whimsy in him, but he absolutely has an air of effortless authority. Dude's got presence, yo.

Also, I can't wait to see how they handle the Red Wedding. I, like Bunny, don't think it'll get a huge amount of coverage, which is good. It should happen just like it happened in the books: suddenly and shockingly. And then it's over.

Indeed. I think the impact of it would be kind of ruined if there was any dramatic stand-off/final battle feel to it.

[Jinx]

Indeed. I think the impact of it would be kind of ruined if there was any dramatic stand-off/final battle feel to it.

Now, I wonder if they'd technically end it at Arya getting an axe to the head. And since all of the scene before/during it has this going on, people would probably think she did die. Hm. It would have to be super fast as not to ruin the effect.

[Quindiana Jones]

Oh man, they should make it a tradition to end every series with Arya maybe getting killed. xD

[Madame Adequate]

Everyone always mentions the Red Wedding. I've not read the books so I don't know what it is. But it better be fucking amazing for all the fuss it gets. :colbert:

[Psychotic]

It's not worth the hype at all. All the non-book folk are seeing the readers going "HEE HEE JUST YOU WAIT!" like it's some sort of super special secret. It's not. It's kind of boring and lame to be honest. Two characters nobody gives a smurf about getting married, big god damn whoop. If you've read the book, I don't want any smurfing replies to this post I've just made. PM me if you take issue with it. This thread is made a lot worse by all the spoilered discussion of it, imho.

[kotora]

Storm of Swords has much better moments. Something with vipers and mountains comes to mind :monster:

[Roogle]

I thought that the subtitling was supposed to indicate what she (Daenerys) understood and what she didn't which is why not all of that guys babbling was subbed.

In the book, Daenerys understood the language and asked for a translator to overhear information like you see in the scene. It is said that if you watch Emelia Clarke during the scene, that you can see that she understands the entire conversation, but this was not implicitly mentioned in the scene itself.

[Bolivar]

I thought it was tight. A lot better than the S2 opener. The wildling camp and giant was just wow. I wasn't ready for how dark the Tyrion/Tywin scene was and how ridiculous it is if you know how this book ends. And Ser Ian's voice as Barristan is just :omg: Unfortunately Aiden Gillen is still overacting. And the dinner in King's Landing made it too painfully clear that they were actors behind a camera. Not too sure why Stannis didn't smile when he saw Davos also. It was still a really great ep, I'm cautiously optimistic.

[kotora]

They speak some kind of valyrian in Astapor. I think they also speak it in Pentos which is where she would've learned it.

[Lonely Paper Star]

Another GoT Main Theme cover to hype us up for the next episode. ;o

[Rantz]

Ahaha I was wondering where I'd seen him before. SAVE ME BARRY

This episode was great. I loved Sansa's, Arya's and Bran's parts. I didn't expect this part of Theon's storyline to come so soon, but it does make sense. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

[Formalhaut]

FORMY?! You haven't watched it? I put it in spoiler tags for a reason! xP

I know, but I often can't resist. Besides, it's only image macros. It's not telling me much.

[Rantz]

Oh, one thing I'm iffy about is the Queen of Thorns' casting. Her dialogue was up to scratch, but I thought her delivery lacked some of the bite that she has in the book.

[Psychotic]

I didn't expect this part of Theon's storyline to come so soonYeah, I was wondering how they were going to handle that. Interesting!

Margaery has a lot more... calculation... to her than in the books, or so it seems to me. I guess the books never really beat you over the head with it. It's a good direction though.

[Ouch!]

Given a number of theories that have emerged since A Feast for Crows regarding the Tyrells and their longterm game plan, it would not surprise me if the only reason we haven't seen Margaery being more manipulative and calculating is simply a lack of (perceptive) point of view characters spending any great deal of time with her.

For the ways that the show has deviated from the books (characters being combined, removed, brought in late, etc.), I'm very much liking the direction that it's all going.

[Rantz]

I agree. It's a bit early to say, but so far I think they're handling S3 better than S2 in terms of book-to-show changes.

I do think Margaery is as cunning in the books as she is in the show, but as often is the case, the show medium requires a whole lot less subtlety to bring out the characters.

[Lonely Paper Star]

I quite enjoyed the entrances of the characters we missed in the first episode, old and new. And indeed, the episode was very gif-able.

Jon Snow, your face.

I also enjoy the little memes coming out of the fandom. Or maybe I've just become to obsessed with this series. :T

[Formalhaut]

I've watched the latest episode now that it's been broadcast and here are my general thoughts on it:



- It's good that it's more focused than the first episode. The first episode, like many premieres, recapped on pretty much every storyline in existence, while this one completely took out Dany and Stannis's storylines. It's better that way.

- Thoughts on the new characters. The Reeds are a welcome introduction; though their initial encounter with Bran and Osha was slightly unnecessary. They certainly didn't give much away and were pretty suspicious, no wonder Osha attacked Jojen. I feel like their presence this episode was mainly exposition, explaining to Bran what warging and sighting in. It'll be interesting to see how they develop past being a tutor to Bran.

- I quite liked Olenna Tyrell's performance actually. It complimented Margarey's softer side well as they questioned the clearly nervous Sansa. I really wish Sansa toughened up some more. Her demeanour doesn't move far from "stock-still nervousness"

- Talking about Margarey, I love her cunning manipulation. She rivals Petyr and Varys for their manipulation. Still, I do like her. She trumps Cersei anyway.

- Poor Theon. I don't think his escape is going to get far if you ask me.

- Any other thoughts? It's a good episode, with many open ended questions. What will happen to Arya? What will happen to Jaime and Brienne? It sets up well for the third episode.

[Jinx]

OMG BRAN IS GROWING UP. HIS VOICE. PUBERTY. ;-;

I would protect Jojen Reed, if you know what I mean. ;)

I love Margaery. When she starts stroking the crossbow. xD

The scenes with Theon were very upsetting to me. I actually screamed at a few points.

Arya's story is as boring as ever, sadly. Except that reveal line was pretty bad ass.

Formalhaut--I don't understand why you're upset with Sansa being nervous. She knows she can't trust anyone, and if word gets back that she's been speaking ill of Joffrey, he'll punish her. It's understandable.

[Lonely Paper Star]

I don't know if it's just me, but Cat's and Arya's storylines in the show felt sped up (compared to the pace in ASOS).

[Jinx]

I was going to say, that moment Cat is talking about praying of Jon Snow all night. That moment was not in the books, possibly setting up for R+L=J? later on in the show?

[Formalhaut]

I'm not upset over it at all and the actress Sophie Turner does a great job of portraying her fear and nervousness. It's just that, I'm waiting for that key moment in the storyline (if at all) where she finds that inner resolve. Maybe I was perhaps to scathing in my first point, and for that I apologise Sam. Thinking back, that final word she says to Olenna "He's a monster" was my first glimpse of open(ish) resolve against Joffrey. I want to see more of that from Sansa as the season goes on. I don't expect much, she obviously can't trust anyone but I want to see that self-confidence and at least determination.

I don't know, maybe I'm in the wrong.

"Game Of Thrones" Actors Doing Normal Stuff Is So Weird (http://www.buzzfeed.com/lyapalater/game-of-thrones-actors-doing-normal-stuff-is-so-weird)

[Loony BoB]

Margaery has a lot more...
...cleavage.

I mean, I thought she was pretty before and all, but on this episode I was like... damn. What a honey.

Anyway! I liked this episode well enough, but I can't shake the annoyance that they try to cram so much into one episode and I end up wishing I could just have them focus on a few characters in an episode instead of something like 50. But it's understandable, I suppose... I just find myself feeling that I'm losing any ability to connect with the characters because they've thrown so many into this season in a mere two episodes. If they increase the number of different POV characters much further then I wonder just how little time we'll spend on each one down the line.

Despite all that, I don't want less story... I want more episodes. :D

[Psychotic]

True enough!

Also, is it me or the Brave Companions aka the Bloody Mummers should've appeared by now? Maybe they should've been in Season 2. Maybe they were and I missed them. I guess it makes sense as on the whole they're kind of like... pointless. But, uh, Qyburn sure becomes A Thing.

[Rantz]

I think it looks like they're being rationalised away, sort of. Robb found Qyburn "alone" in the last episode, and Brienne and Jamie seem to be captured by Boltons instead, going by this latest episode.

[Psychotic]

Oh, is that who that was that Robb found? I thought it was just some random dude who was going to play no further part. :shobon:

I actually really like Stannis and find him pretty smexy.

Anyhow, I've caught up so here are my EPIC! Well, not entirely epic really, the first episode was quite dull but Jon Snow is still hot so I'm happy. I must admit I seem to forget who certain characters are unless they're like the MAIN ones.

I love Cersei. I want to learn how to pout like her. The Tyrion moments of the first episode were the standouts for me though. Oh, and Daenerys bits.

2nd Ep. Looved it, very awesome. I like the new mystical things that are coming into it with Bran and Jojen. I'm growing to like Sansa a lot, I did miss Arya in it though and MMM MMM MMM GENDRY :kiss: what a beaut hubba hubba ding ding dong. Ahem, I'll stop drooling over the hotties now.... >.>

I love the picture of Sophie and Maisie in one of their bedrooms. What's up with Maisie's bra. xD But it's such a real moment.

Also, I love Kit wearing a Robb Stark shirt. Wtf!

O please..Sansa is getting a Vin Diesel 1 and a half chin.

I need him to take me.

Excuse me, I need a minute alone...

What is up with it? Am I missing some kind of subtle thing only women notice here? :confused:

[Jinx]

Her shirt is see-through, and you can see her bra. Why do you ask?

I just loved the Brienne photo-bomb.

That's a fashion thing since like 2011 or even earlier. I didn't see anything weird about it.

[Jinx]

It's not a fashion thing where I live!

[kotora]

Give it a couple more years :monster:

[Lonely Paper Star]

*fans herself because of the Gendry pics*

[Madame Adequate]

Yeah Gendry is pretty... :drool:

My chihuahua is more buff.

Lots of girls do it here.

I'd like to see pictures of this.

[Del Murder]

I thought this episode was kind of boring. Only the Jaime and Arya parts were interesting. The Reeds were introduced pretty poorly and without any explanation at all.

Though the Jofferey/Margery scene was pretty chilling.

[Jinx]

I want to see the Reeds eat some frogs, please, HBO.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I like this episode better than the season opener. :O

[Del Murder]

I thought the opener was better, but maybe because with that I was expecting a setup episode. I guess since this one introduced Arya, Jamie, Theon, and Bran, it was kind of 'part 2' of the opener.

Two of my very most favorite shows--I am pleased.

Pretty common here. if they've a decent set they'll head out like this. I'm a huge fan.

The same could be said about any boy older than ten in this case. BoB isn't special here. :colbert:

Stop it now Locky, I might get overexcited.

[Night Fury]

I just wanted to post it again, whether it was relevant or not.

Scrap that.

Gendry's torso is always relevant.

[Aulayna]

Damnit had to edit my post :p

I'd go for Cersei. But they were all brilliant. I'm dying at all of these.

Interrupting gif fest to say that I love this picture. Apparently a lot of my female friends think it's slutty, but I don't care.

I think this might be the appropriate response for you to give anyone who says they don't like that:
