    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The new guy does better with the clever dialogue, the old guy had the more exotic look that fit more of what I pictured for Daario...minus the blue hair.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Just pondering on the whole...contenders to the title and all, but doesn't it seem like the show makes Littefinger seem vastly superior to Varys in his moves? Varys seems like he's done nothing much worth anything of late. In the books it made more sense for him to be the silent hand behind...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't know why people think it's just going to be only him doing the stabbing. He even noted to Sam that everyone else looking at the wildlings walking through Castle Black would "never forget his actions, either"

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That would be quite a big change. How would Jon be rezzed in the show then? Also Stannis burning Shireen for his campaign makes sense for his character (much as Mannis fans will be butthurt by that fact).

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    At first, she was seemingly trying to rationalize it to Stannis with her mutterings about it being "a good thing", but she cracked hard when she started screaming. Good lord the whining over this will be epic.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    What is this crying? Perhaps Stannis is heading down that path of the crazed would be ruler in the books (and frankly, there is evidence of it), who believes so much in his own right to rule and in his "destiny" that he'll do anything. This just shows, graphically, how far he's willing to go...

    My guess is they were trying to sit on the lead a bit/Chicago finally started to push back. At one point a little after Tampa went up 1-0 in the 1st shot attempts were 23-5 in Tampa's favor. Chicago going to Chicago though, always getting the clutch plays.

    Well guess that lists Episode 3, but either way as long as anyone watching the show has paid attention to Qyburn they should know what's up.

    Agreed, as if his whole last line to Cersei about "the work continues" wasn't heavy foreshadowing enough for show watchers. Not a stretch at all.

    They might have referred to him as that once? I can't remember if it was during the tourney where he fought the Mountain. This was back when Sansa wanted to marry Joffery but still got her teen panties all wet at the sight of Loras.

    He's not really a great actor on the show either...the best I think I saw from him was during his interrogation with the High Sparrow.

    On the show Brienne beats him to become a member of Renly's Kingsguard as well. In the books I believe he is sent to siege Dragonstone and gets burned/disfigured(?) from hot oil being poured all on him or some shit like that.

    Wasn't that a fairly even fight for a bit, and wasn't that guy basically the top assassin in King's Landing before getting sent to the Night's Watch? Selmy lost to some guys in gold masks, Podrick killed a Kingsguard. Bronn goes from random sellsword in the books who beat a Knight of the...

    If I wasn't clear, when I say I'mnot readyto call Jon "elitetier" yet, and only upper/top tier maybe...I'm not calling him elite. You have to figure he got some training with Ned while growing up, and they have to have someone decent at the wall to be training these guys. They sort of made...

    Not ready to call Jon "elite tier" yet, but upper/top tier maybe. I mean, it seems clear it's headed in that direction...as someone else noted, dude's been at the Wall for a couple years now doing nothing but training.

    Fuck anyone for bitching about this season btw. Assuming episode 9 will be badass as well, if 10 delivers as well (as it should with Jon scene) I'm perfectly fine with all the buildup leading to fucking amazing last 3 episodes.

    I actually thought it was pretty great, Dany actually had someone to make her look a little better in a scene to be honest. I'm excited to see them already at that point. As for the rest I can't just break it down yet, holy fuck it was amazing. Nice to see them fill in some holes of what...

    Point Break Remake (2015)

    This. The only bright side I see is Delroy Lindo coming in protecting the franchise (his own) as normal, being the badass guy in charge. But preview looked like a total shit show. Who are they going to have to replicate Busey's role? Sad thing is I'll still end up seeing it.

    I still think we'll get Sam going to Old town. They sorta foreshadowed it with the whole "you're not a fighter", and Stannis telling him to keep reading about stuff that could help against WW/Others. High Sparrow is destroying every scene he's in. Good fucking god Sand Snakes tits made up...

    The set up scene to them heading off to Dorne was great. Was ready to sign up for that buddy cop movie. Fight scene with the mighty mite chicks was just horrid though. Agreed it felt rushed. They really seem to be focusing a ton on Sansa's plot, and the Sparrows/Cersei/Margery plot. Arya...

    This is a hypothetical plot you're talking about I assume, lest anyone forget that while the Starks have certainly suffered, only one of Sansa's 4 siblings (to say nothing of Jon's real heritage or his offer from Stannis) is actually dead. Bran/Rickon/Arya all still alive. Granted, Bran seems...

    Amusing as it is, I feel like his agent should be shot for picking or helping to pick that commercial. Although I wonder how much leeway he has to do anything major outside of GoT, with no Mance (assuming), have to figure he'll be around for a little while as leader of the Wildlings that are left.
