I'm really amused when I imagine some college stoner kid who grew up on GoT deciding to take theology just on a lark, showing up for the first day of class, and King loving Jeoffy is sitting at the front of the room.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:When i say every change or addition in the show (except Hardhome) is loving awful it's not because I'm a purist. The books suck, too. I can't remember most of them now because it's been so long, but I remember thinking most of the S1 changes were great. Those were different times. War Stories and How Long Can Hate Hold a Thing Together come to mind. Intel&Sebastian posted:If those two are indicative of the quality for these holy poo poo moments then it's gonna be incredibly stupid and inconsequential. Stephen Dillane deserved to be in a better series. Stannis was always a piece of poo poo and one of the first things you learn about him in the book is that he banned laughing at feasts. Yeah, that's perfectly reasonable and not an insanely autistic thing to do, sure.

There was a lot of thinking about ants going on on the set of Luck.

esperterra posted:My place of work is going to start screening season 7 of GoT in the lead up to their weekly screenings of the new poo poo Season 7 at least really toned down the nudity and rape right? I can't imagine watching like Sansa marriage funtimes or any of the earlier seasons with my coworkers.

My favorite is the scene where Drogo rips a guy's tongue out through his throat for badmouthing his woman. Quick and effective and not unnecessarily drawn out. All the quips and dialog happen before the actual 1.2 second long fight takes place.

Katt posted:There's this scene in the book where Catelyn says that Ned never trusted Roose because there was something off about him. -His banner is a skinned man. -Ned had to specifically tell him to not skin folks alive. -He's pale because he has himself leeched on a regular basis. -His house is named The Dreadfort. Ned, a saavy and wise lord: Hmm, I can't put my finger on it, but I think there's something off about this fellow.

There was never any indication that Lyanna didn't like Robert as well was there? Wasn't she like 16? Being infatuated with someone one day and then someone else the next sounds like a very 16yo thing to do, and back then Robert was supposed to be all strong and buff and sexy, at least according to Cersei.

The original idea for ice zombies came up several decades ago before we lived in a hellworld of The Walking Dead and Resident Evils.

Maybe tactics are different when you've got dragons and on your side? We all know it's actually the rule of cool on tv. Angry horse mans cutting the scrubs to pieces Flesnolk posted:I hope GRRM dies. gently caress that. I hope GRRM never dies. And unending eternity of sitting around being fat, and being harassed by nerds to finish his drat books, as he fades deeper and deeper into irrelevance. Soon he'll only be known as that one guy who started writing fanfic about that Game of Thrones TV show but didn't finish it. The sweet release of death is for closers fatass.

I always assumed the wine was at the very least super fortified. But everyone always goes on and on about all the different types of poisons, there's probably one that would make him groggy or off balance or something. I mean more so than usual. Still no guarantee. Who knows if they had a contingency plan though. Ain't no bitch made Lannister spearing Robert with Selmy right there though, that's stupid.

PittTheElder posted:I don't know if your timeline really works there; it's certainly true for America as slavery and Jim Crow become dominant issues, but I certainly don't think that's universal to the west. The first couple must be very proud to have given birth to that Jesus meme painting.

kcroy posted:huh - so how'd he make the jump from clown to chancellor? I guess I'm aware of some specific events - but more curious about how either the opinion of him changed, or how it didn't matter. People are a hell of a lot more gullible than they appear at first glance, and opinions can be easily changed through media. Like, to a terrifying degree. If you went back in time 10 years and told your average dirt poor small town American rednecks that their favorite president of all time, one they would fervently support with their very life and AR15 if needs be, was a reality tv show host, a Clinton campaign supporter, a godless, liberal New York billionaire how many of them would believe you? Yet here we loving are.

A HORNY SWEARENGEN posted:Either way it's going to be hilarious when Britain becomes a third world country sewing sneakers for Americans for £70,000 ($0.13) a day. Hey, at least their kids will be unsullied by the evils of internet porn. Priorities.
