it's sort of a blur to me too. i just know that they have consistently shown sansa as completely passive and terrified of anyone and everyone trying to kill her at any moment as soon as ned died. she was HAPPY to be marrying joffrey right up until shit got real then she went...

well... i mean i get your point, but in reality, if she DIDN'T consent, he would have killed her. which isn't really consent. let's not devolve into a "it was or wasn't rape" conversation.

well, also let's not ignore the fact that this has been 80% of bran's lines this season. i'm not going to argue that it's GOOD writing, but it's not like this line of thinking is out of the blue. and yes, you're exactly correct in that it's a fairly normal coping mechanism. and honestly i...

wait a minute... are you saying that a hollywood actor is being hypocritical?

i just read an article about the conversation between the hound and sansa. jessica chastain was super pissed, yelling about the whole scene being insensitive to rape victims and that rape is not a "character building moment" uh. listen, woman, i'm sorry that you think "rape is insensitive" but...

OOOOOH LIKE THE SPORE DRIVE?!

no one even points out the angle of the two bolts that hit rhaegal. one comes dead center of his chest, coming from in front of him, then the second one comes from the side to pierce his neck. instead of getting pissed, dany should have pulled a deadpool and broke the 4th wall, telling the...

i don't remember the dragonbone bow scene AT ALL...was it highly sought after because it's made of dragonbone? or because of it's combat effectiveness? like, kings were gifted golden swords all the time but you absolutely never should fight with one.

SHOWING ghost dying would have been more expensive, i think, but it's irrelevant. they didn't want to kill off ghost, but they can't afford to have him around. which, is silly, honestly... the whole conversation about money and story decisions happening because of a lack of it is just... it's...

yeah, i saw that and was hoping there'd be something more to it. i kind of got the feeling that the writers actually are pretty decent when they get the time to breath but (probably for budget reasons) the seasons have been getting shorter and shorter. i mean, i hope anyway... there's really so...

i LOVE how that one moment is all it took to turn the entire audience against jon. like, i get that a live action dire wolf is problematic and expensive, and you want to be frugal and make sure the money goes to the right places BUT GHOST IS THE GOODEST BOY WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS also, they put...

on subsequent viewings, i think overall i liked the movie less (still really enjoyed it) but the things that bothered me the first time, didn't really bother me that much anymore. i remember it being REALLY jarring when girl power team shows up out of nowhere, but it didn't bother me really at...

about Aejon having a stronger claim to the throne... Varys, i don't think, was saying that he had a stronger CLAIM because he was a male, the impression i got was that the lords of westeros were more apt to follow male leadership. varys doesn't particularly care about lineage and rightful heirs...

i have a question that i can't seem to get a clear answer to, hopefully you guys can help me with it. dany is aerys' youngest daughter... i keep seeing people talk about dany being like, 13 in the first book, but the story starts like 15 years AFTER robert's rebellion. how old is dany supposed...

maybe i'm misremembering, but i thought varys was the one who said he had a better claim to the throne because he was male. i mean, he did say that, but i don't remember dany saying anything of the sort.

if you think everyone else in the world is wrong, you're probably the one who's wrong. i'm not saying, i'm just saying.

dany is absolutely the good guy in her mind. and the scenes with her had generally been done from her point of view, or at least from the point of view from the people who benefitted from what she was doing. that in no way makes her any less culpable. ANYTIME there's an issue with dany, her...

i glanced over the spoilers and i'm not really even convinced that they are accurate. that being said, my opinion on dany's mad queen turn is that it has been telegraphed for a LONG time. honestly, what i THINK, and have ALWAYS thought is that she will have that huge temptation to burn...

Amod, can we get a Ser Jorah for these people?

i think YOU aren't watching the same show as the rest of us if this is all a big surprise to you.

i actually hope they go full bore an this alternate timeline/dimension stuff. you could have some movies focus on some goofy "what if's" that comics do all the time. have the next phase be all about random rifts opening up, bringing in alternate characters, or pulling some of the main characters...

yeah, i think it would have been much better if when tyrion points it out during the game, she just drinks. like it's something that she just doesn't care about. brienne has been a great character because she's atypical. she's this beast of a woman who is more concerned with honor and justice...

i don't know, honestly. maybe the books are much clearer on that, but at least in the show she says her only education is what her brother told her. i'll admit that one of her advisers could have pretty easily told her what was going on off camera, but her practical knowledge of running a...

SECOND dragon? when did he get his first?

honestly, i don't even use the tarly scene as any kind of proof of anything. WE know him to be a douche so we're kind of happy he gets killed for sam's sake. we also know that he's all kind of flippy-floppy politically and had a huge part in the lannister's gaining power, so we're kind of happy...

ha. uh, no, i don't have any idea what blog post you're talking about but i'd love to read it

okay, take someone like varys, who has said from the beginning that he serves the realm. him being a servant to the baratheons, then the lannisters, then to dany and now seemingly to jon... it makes sense. he wants what's best for westeros. he wants a good ruler and for the people to be taken...

oh, and by the way, dany's been crazy for a long time. i dare say she always has been. they have continually made a point to show that she is her father's daughter, but with some guidance and a little bit of luck, she might turn out okay

oh, you know... they were just... around

about one of the spoilers...

i get the feeling that there are just certain things the story teller knows and is just filling in the blanks. what i mean is, the person telling the story knows that euron's fleet used a scorpion to kill dany's already injured dragon, but the exact details on HOW that happened aren't known...

this can't really be salvaged, so i'm writing my own fan fiction where they attack king's landing, but the drowned god shows up and euron is just cackling and crazed. king's landing is completely decimated and the survivors flee to the north. the north north. not winterfell. they rebuild the...

same, honestly. cap has always been one of my favorite characters and i think evans has really done a great job portraying him. there were a ton of moments in the first avenger where i remember thinking "wow, they actually understand his character so well"

yeah, for the most part imax and 3d is gimmicky unless it's done with very specific equipment. mechanically speaking, avatar was done very well in that regard. there are VERY few movies that are worth the experience of imax and avatar is arguably at the top of the list.

jaime is going to kill cersei. he all but told everyone that's what he was doing. he did all these terrible things for cersei, says that cersei is a hateful person and that so is he. except he was saying that he's hateful of what he did for cersei. cersei made him a terrible person and he hates...

as far as IMAX goes, isn't that right when IMAX started to get popular as well? i don't even remember there being any other movie at that time that would even take advantage of it.

well, one of those movies was a kid's movie and one of them wasn't. so take that for what it's worth. also, the only people worth dressing up as in avatar are either the giant mechs or the na'vi. one requires an insane amount of money to actually put together for a holloween costume, the other...

hi, i'm not chuk. (edit) oh, i get it. nm. but also, the image i was alluding to was closer to this.

the movie was very pretty. the story was 100% derivative. i was one of the only people i know that saw it and just... wasn't fooled by how pretty it was. there wasn't a single new idea in that film.

i think that was an obvious reference, and i mean, it could be, but outside of that, she has dragonfang, which is brunnhilde's sword. i mean she COULD have taken it from her? in the flashback scene she's using it already... though... i guess there's some nonsense about the MCU valkyrie ALL...
