Firstborn posted:The guy who plays Jorah is such a great actor. He had(has?)a show where he plays a drunken police dude in a snazzy scarf who punches people and is generally told by everyone else what a drunk piece of poo poo he is while he solves weird crimes like people getting murdered by halberds. It's a great show. Jack Taylor is an awesome show. We started watching a couple of years after GoT came out. Imagine our dumb faces when one of us said, 'hey, that guy looks familiar' I think Berristan Selmy was also in an episode.

I keep rewatching that scene between Oberyn and Tyrion, because Pedro Pascal's delivery is so genuine and nuanced. The Viper is a character that could come off corny as gently caress if done poorly. I can't wait to see him give the Mountain his dew.

precision posted:The problem is that it is predictable. "Here is a character that is awesome. He/she will suffer horribly." It's bad storytelling not because bad things happen to people we like, but because everything becomes telegraphed. Jaime becomes likable? Hand chopped off. Ned dies. Robb gets Red Wedding'd. It's something you have to use sparingly, and not do it to every loving character. I'm already fully expecting The Hound to die this season purely because he has become a very interesting character. Hey, I have to object here. Nobody saw Ned's death or the Red Wedding coming, so it's hardly telegraphed. The Ned thing was a case of 'fool me once'. The RW was a case of 'fool me twice', and because we never get passed being fooled twice that we get bitter about every death after that.

the posted:So with a trial by combat, could someone basically be the most vile and evil person ever but always get away with it because they're a proficient fighter? Well sure, if you're case goes to trail. But if you're condemned right then and there, you don't get the option. Ned Stark never got a trail.

Blazing Ownager posted:The one in particular that stood out to me was her mention of how she can throw something in the fire to make it look like huge bursts of flames pop out and "take" the person that is burning. We saw it earlier this season and Stannis's wife even comments, elated, that the "Lord of Light has taken them!" Walder Frey coldly sacrificed his wife while drinking wine. Caitlin killed her in a moment of extreme psychological distress. The hate for Caitlin for that is very weird.
