It's only 3-4 screenshots, some of which might be faked and one being just a picture of Cersei's face. For now.

Kevan dying in the book is just a vehicle for Varys' near-book-saving cool guy speech at the end anyway. He's more important in the book as a kind of lannister handler for tommen but he was still not that big of a deal.

Kevan is also fixing the damage Cersei's been causing and Varys would rather have her ruining everything since she's short-sighted at best and a complete idiot at worst.

Kevan as king's hand to Tommen is the last thing Varys wants because neither are the black hearted monster that Geoffery and Tywin were and Tommen could easily be molded in to a competent ruler by Kevan while there was no way in hell Geoffery was going to be anything but another mad king.

I'm an obtuse man,
so I'll try to be oblique.
In the his short reign as Hand, Kevan managed to placate the Tyrells and somewhat re-establish confidence in the monarchy. Can't have that.

I really look forward to seeing Cersei catch word of this, then go absolutely insane.

It ain't official but there's been more than a few pictures over the years of GRRM showing no hesitation nor hoverhand with young ladies at conventions, which would be commendable from some angles but starts to look really creepy when you see them all side-by-side and realize he paws the hands of every pretty little girl getting her book signed.

This isn't South Korea. Hoverhand really isn't a big thing here. Most celebs do it because they don't want to be touching 394789609 different people. Especially at a convention where you find a lot of ripe-smelling people.

Lately, I've been kinda enthralled with the idea that the world of ASOIAF is actually on the inner surface of a hollow sphere, and that the sun (or suns!) actually move around erratically within the center (sort of like the rollstars in the shellworld in Matter). It would explain the erratic seasons and their indeterminate lengths. The "red sword" comet seen in the first book could even be one of those suns fizzling out/lighting up and taking a close pass at the surface.

There's not really anything in the text to support this, it was a thought triggered by the credits sequence for the show. In title sequence, the map they zoom around is very clearly on the inside, rather than the outside, of a sphere, and when they zoom up they show the sun sorta chillin' out hovering in the middle. The most obvious explanation, of course, is that it's just a cool visual and that's why they did it, but I occasionally wonder if it wasn't a more deliberate choice based on information they have from GRRM that we haven't been given in the book. I don't think the nature of the planet will ever be revealed in the books because the people within the book's world don't have the scientific knowledge to figure that kinda thing out and we're always given information from a character's perspective. As external fanwank material, though, it's kind of a neat thought.

The main issue with this is if the characters were walking around on the inside of an inverted sphere, ignoring the obvious gravity issues, they would be able to see the reverse-curvature of the world's surface on any clear day. Which would look freaky as gently caress to us.

It's actually kind of ambiguous on Illyrio himself. There's the statue of the young warrior in his garden that was supposedly of Illyrio. The whole young, strong hot warrior guy to gross fatty transition is a pretty direct nod to Aegon the Unworthy who was responsible for starting the Blackfyres in the first place.

Watch them combine Varys with Darkstar and have him cut off Myrcella's ear. Actually, considering the writers' slavish insistence on showing how you guys we can totally be dark and mean too, they'll have Varys cut off her clit instead.

hopefully they'll be really graphic, but since they can't actually cut off someone's clit they'll use grainy footage of something that happened in sudan and use cgi to make the woman white

For some reason the idea that Varys' plans are in danger because all the awful people killed each other and only the decent remain is really funny. Good thing Westeros will never run out of awful people.

I actually think it was funny reading comments about that episode. A lot of show watchers loved it and ate it up with a spoon but a good majority also thought it was really awful that Dany left all her friends behind. Not that such a move could ever spoil Dany to show watchers.

Also one person mentioned that the dramatic twenty second pause of Dany and Drogon sharing a moment was really awkward and why did the Harpies not just chuck a spear at her when they had the chance?

Rewatch the scene, after Drogon destroys the harpies the unsullied clearly have the upper hand, the final shots of Tyrion and the gang looking at Dany in disbelief show the unsullied establishing a defensive perimeter around the protagonists and all the harpies are either fleeing or dead, the editing/framing wasn't great but I think we're meant to think Dany is flying off on Drogon to protect him as well as to stop him from burning the arena to the ground more than she does it to save herself.

Yeah in the book no one is in danger but Dany and Jorah really and she dashes in and saves Jorah by distracting Drogon. Her flying off essentially doesn't put anyone at risk. But in the show she has Missandi, Tyrion, Jorah, Daario, and several Unsullied just left there as she flies off. Peace out, dudes I have a dragon to ride have fun saving yourselves.

I mean I guess you can say that the Harpies pissed themselves and ran? That's my only argument against it and it isn't a very good one.

When Dany mounts Drogon there are only a handful of Harpies still fighting in the pit, Drogon takes off flying right through them and the next shot is from an aerial perspective showing people scattering away running towards the exits, the next shot from the ground has the camera circling Tyrion and there's no fighting going on anymore.
