    Naw I don't read books anymore. I prefer to get my fiction in screen form

    Spoilers from episodes that already aired is fine, but anything else is off limits.

    Ya, Claire as Daenerys would have sucked.

    And ya, Jamie earned some serious coolpoints for that scene.
  19. #19
    The guy's a tool. Any man with long blond hair prettier than mine is a tool. Guess I'm the odd one out since the only Lannister I don't hate is the pImp

    Also, 100% guarantee that little cuntbag prince that looks like an inbred is in fact an inbred

    I mean, I don't LIKE Jamie, obv not rooting for him, but I think both his and his sisters characters have moved in a very good direction that gives them some depth that seemed to be lacking at first. But ya, the Imp is a pimp. And ofc that lil queer is an inbred incest lovechild.

    edit: and it makes sense, because the king and queen lost their first child. So that could explain the start of the incestuous relationship... to solidify their power, she needed to produce an heir, and if the king's soldiers aren't marching, who better to keep the secret of having impregnated the queen then her brother? Sounds like a std Lanister scheme to me.

    King is great
    Ned Stark is meh ok, supposed to be the "good guy" but kind of a tool
    Imp is awesome obviously
    Jamie is great for his role
    Women (actresses) in the show are generally disappointing, none of them stand out to me.

    chick who plays daenerys is perfect imo

    meh she averages like 90 seconds of screen time though

    wish they'd move the Dothraki story line along

    It appears they're doing regional episodes. This week will probably be Doth

    whatever else happens, they can hang their hat on the best horse beheading ever.

    who has read the books? My wife loves them but curses the author all the time for not putting out another one so I'm torn.
  26. #26
    yea the beheading was awesome....and the king and the imp are by far my favorite characters, everything they say is priceless.

    I do not like j-lann (cool nicknames are cool) but just the grimey-ness (def a word) of that scene was fucking awesome. Fist pumpingly awesome.

    what scene?
  29. #29
    the final scene of last episode where he stabs Ned's boy in the eye and then murks the nigga who stabs Ned in the leg, just cause he wanted to duel with ned and pwn him himself.

    Good ep. Was the golden crown scene a death scene? Because that shit doesn't happen. All your skin can burn off and you'll still be alive for a little while. It's whatever though I guess. Can't let that kind of stuff ruin the plot. It would be like the horse head chop not having nearly enough blood ruining it

    Apparently, next week ep is already available. No talking about it until it airs though, capiche.

    ugh.. it has "aired"... I guess I'm fine with it being off limits, since there are other places to discuss it, but it's a pretty silly ruling.

    How long before the brain cooks? Thats a 1000 degree liquid metal with a high heat density... I'd bet it would kill a man easily.

    Chopping a horses head off in one swing is more fantasy imo

    HBOgo not having some online subscription that doesn't require having an HBO sub at your home is the silly ruling.

    what.. how are you watching the show, if not with your HBO sub, or torrents? Are there not torrents of 7 yet?

    edit: as to the realism... I'm pretty sure that having a liter of molten metal poured on your head is gonna be pretty much an insta kill. Like rilla said, its a bit diff than just getting burt, the gold is going to hold its heat and pretty much cook the brain. That being said, when it was happening I thought "wow, this could be an awesome character, the used to be pretty disfigured perma crowned throne conspirer..." but it is a bit too fantastical for GoT. Speaking of which, the writers' joke poking fun at high fantasy where Sam shares that he wanted to be a wizard when he was a kid was pretty lawls.

    As for the horses head, he did not complete behead it, and I think it was actually surprisingly accurate, except for maybe the lack of blood. You have to realize that its a fucking giant of a man wielding a great sword... hell I'm pretty sure I could get at least through the spine if I were able to swing the sword at all... that thing was huge. Back to the blood... I really am unsure I believe the amount of blood was wrong. The clip was very short, and it showed blood being squirted.. only the arteries would squirt blood like this, and only the arteries would do so, so quickly. I think its quite accurate that you would be able to see a fairly clean cross section for about as long as the clip lasted.

    My neighbor has HBO. Then I heard about episode 7 being on HBOgo and I thought that's great, I'd definitely pay a handful of bucks a month to watch the next episode plus whatever else HBO has online Netflix style until HBOgo tells me I need HBO... Why would you put a barrier between the customer and your product? I want HBOgo... let me buy that.

    Also, I remember there was one of those Deadliest Warrior shows on Spike talked about a sword to behead a horse and that was debunked quickly.

    Maquahuitl - Deadliest Warrior Wiki

    And samurai had some crazy horse-slayer sword that wasn't ever used for horse slaying.

    Zanbatō - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    A total aside, as he didn't behead the horse I guess. Just saying that horses are hard to slice through.

    Good points on the molten metal. I hadn't thought of that. It's a legit death

    Not sure if the show is expressing it as well as they should, but I think the Mountain is supposed to be so huge he dwarfs his 7 foot tall brother

    Question: why did that dude fight for the pImp, then follow him as he left the throne room? I thought he was Lady Stark's guard, not Tyrion's guy

    Torrentday still doesn't have ep 7 up
  40. #40
    demonoid does...PM me if you want an invite
  41. #41
    and i assume that guy fought for tyrion because he knew if he won he would be jooged for life, but idk for sure, sort of confused me too.

    Also it was kind of dumb that his trial consisted of someone battling someone else for him....doesnt seem like a very just way of conducting a kingdom.

    Yeah, I don't think they've been through an Age of Enlightenment yet. They're pretty much stuck in the Age of Badassery.

    I figured since he was so accepting of the fact that he fought dishonorably that he was more a sellsword and figured that fighting for a Lanister meant good pay. How he was in those chambers in the first place, I dunno.

    yea but then that sort of is negated by the fact he was like "COME ON I DESERVE A TRIAL"...i figured theyd just be like....nah thats not how we ride and murder him anyway?! instead of being like....damn his boy beat our boy, guess we has to let him leaves O WELLS

    let's stop trying to make sense of the justice system in a medieval fantasy world. I think the rules are pretty clear, and they aren't that absurd considering in the continuum, dragons are recently extinct and there are undead things that go bump in the night in the snow covered north.
  46. #46
    I'm not going to hijack thread at all, but I will point out that our own justice system is deeply irrational in favor of wealthy people and tradition. I feel like the court scene was excellent writing partly because it was seeped in the reality of stupid justice

    Yeah, but still, philly is on point. Maybe it bows to a more Eastern thinking. That there should be a trial but that lord-judges and champions and honor should be above due process and a jury of your peers.

    I don't really know anything about Eastern thinking in this instance, though. Still, philly, good points.

    They couldn't just murder him, he's a Lannister. What they were doing was already pushing the envelope mega time, and I feel like part of it was meant to show how Stark's sister and that part of the kingdom is crazy

    Which reminds me, why in the shitballs didn't they dye the pImp's hair blond? Family/color is an important distinction they're making. My guess is that him being a drawf makes him genetically acceptable for not fitting the mold
  50. #50
    i mean its not bleach blonde but his hair is definitely blonde....

    and i agree the tulley sister and her little kid tilt the shit out of me, i hope jamie murders them all.
