Game of Thrones SHOW thread for people who are confused by the book thread

[Gooch]

Yeah if you don't like the (extremely well-crafted) dialogue you really might as well not watch, because it's admittedly 90% of the show.

Boobs are at least 10% and fighting another 10%.

forgot about boobs

The boobs usually come with dialogue, though.

Yeah, that pisses me right the eff off.

[nicname]

What if they both lose?

Yes, it's the only way.

[nicname]

the producers of the show tend to leave no doubt when a character dies, yknow?

Tyrion and The Mountain = suspenseful M-Sat (less for me).

The Mountain isn't so much suspenseful out of care for his lame ass (sorry to MH, Oberyn is much more interesting imo).

[nicname]

I hate Cersei and her stupid smug smile.

That bitch.

[nicname]

That episode sums up the show pretty well. Bunch of boring talking, then 2 minutes of the episode is something crazy happening. Everyone talks about the crazy thing that happened, no one discusses all the boring talking that happened.

[nicname]

Hey how about all that talking guys? I thought the talking was really well done in this episode.

OK, but seriously Dany kicked Jorah to the curb!

Huge mistake and character flaw on her part. He'll redeem himself. She better show humility when he does, or she's a lost cause.

pretty great dialogue from Dolorous Edd (the sourpuss guy on the Wall) per uge (uzhe? uje? i'm trying to shorten "usual")

also pretty important scene with Jorah Mormont leaving Dany (I WONDER WHERE JORAH IS GOING TO GO YOU GUYS)

the Grey Worm / Missandei thing is pretty dumb, could deal without

i loved the 17 minute beetle smashing story, Tyrion 

The Theon/Reek stuff is fantastic.

Boltons! 

Sansa! 

I really thought there was going to be some point to the beetle story and he was going to have figured out why the guy was killing beetles by the end of it, but no.

It was supposed to be an eloquent way of saying some people just kill things and there is no reason it's just in their nature, or something, but it came off as kind of a dumb long story.

The allegory was nice, but I just enjoyed the brotherly memories/ conversation so near a presumable death. The worm/ Missandei was def  , then .

Love the rest though. I'm loving the dialogue.

Sansa is definitely worst to near first in my book.

that picture leads me to believe that hafthor could really pop that dudes head in irl

[Benja]

So awesome. I was thinking yesterday how much I'd love to have my head smashed on a tv show. That would be like the greatest day of my life.

[Asteriskhead]

I'd let Hafthor handhug my head.

Hey how about all that talking guys? I thought the talking was really well done in this episode.

Huge mistake and character flaw on her part. He'll redeem himself. She better show humility when he does, or she's a lost cause.

How is that a character flaw on Dany's part? She just found out that her most trusted advisor was once a spy. If anything, her character flaw was not ending Jorah's throat.

[TownieCat]

I'd let Hafthor handhug my head.

I'd be afraid to shake hands with Hafthor, let alone let him handhug my head. 

[Asteriskhead]

I'd let Hafthor handhug my head.

I'd be afraid to shake hands with Hafthor, let alone let him handhug my head. 

pfftt... gentle giant.

[Benja]

Here's a picture of Hafthor re-racking one of my weights for me.

[AppleJack]

did he really need to crush his head?

[Tobias]

so did a bro basically get american history x'd but with hands instead of feet and no curb?  seems mean

She's supposed to be a queen. She's supposed to use reason and mercy, use a little empathy. Jorah may have started out as a spy for Varys, but he didn't know her at that point. He's done nothing but support her for the longest time and also swore fealty to her. Out of all Daenerys' advisors, Jorah is the most trustworthy despite being a former spy. That's the rub.

It's true that she did show some restraint by not killing him instantly as she'd done so many times, but that's only a slight improvement to her black/ white line of thought when it comes to most situations.

She showed a lot of restraint by not killing him. He probably caused the death of her child because Varys/Tywin probably sent that witch lady who "cursed" her child. And then almost caused her death with that poisoned wine.

Yeah, it's only hurting her in the end because it had Tywin's intended consequence of removing her adviser from her, but can you really blame her?

[Mr Bread]

Varys is pro-Targ in all respects.  He is not bros with Tywin.  Mirri Maz Duur was operating of her own accord.  Bad crap happens unrelated to the Game occassionally imo.  None of this is spoilers btw it's opinion.

Wasn't all of Jorah's info going through Varys?

[star seed 7]

Yeah, I don't think the witch had anything to do with jorah

[Rage Against the McKee]

No way Varys could have known that Khal Drogo would have been cut in a fight and have a festering wound. That his a huge stretch.
