Since I can't edit the post, and I've received a few comments, here is why: BE WARNED!!!!!! THIS IS A BIG FUCKING SPOILER IF YOU'VE NOT READ ALL THE BOOKS. NOT SURE WHERE THE FOLLOWING HAPPENS BOOK-WISE, IT MAY BE AFFC, ASOS, OR ADWD (THOUGH I THINK IT'S EARLIER THAN ADWD), SO BE WARNED. I AM WARNING YOU. YOU ARE BEING WARNED. WARNING, SPOILER. Spoiler Tommen marries Margeary (after Joffrey's untimely demise) and she is to become Queen. He can't marry her if she's not a virgin. But wait, you say, she was married. Yes, to a GAY guy. Their marriage was never consummated. BECAUSE HE'S GAY. That's why it matters right now, and who knows, it may come back to be even more important down the road.
I don't know all the character names, but I want to talk about this creepy priestess shadow what the fuck? One, I don't care how "perfect" her tittay balls are. You know the scene where she lays on the table to get railed? STARFISH. Two: HOLY FUCK A SHADOW OUT HER GINER. I don't even remember anything else that happened in that episode.
I wonder if titties are part of the casting equation, i.e: "She's hot and can act but has terrible nipples, next." It seems to be the case, what with Daenerys and Red Lady's tits being awesome and then salt wive's tits being just the worst.
I am I the only one that thinks Stannis is going to be pissed when he sees that the son HE was expecting to have turned out to be a black kid? Spoiler
Not one boob. The fuck, Game of Thrones. So why does Arya get to command that guy to kill 3 people? Spoiler If Im not mistaken, isnt she the one that killed the Tickler in the book?
He was one of the three men in the cage that Yoren was bringing to the wall. During the fight where Yoren was killed Arya saved him. Remember when she passed the axe into the cage before the fire could get to them? The guys name is Jaqen H'ghar; the three deaths he gives her are to repay what he sees as a debt. She took three lives from his god, so he has to give three back to him. Spoiler to answer your book question Spoiler Forget which book, but Arya fights the torturer and a couple other guys, with Sander Clegane, and kills him.
That guy Arya saved is awesome. I hope to see more of him, I'm glad he took that mouthy fucker out from last episode. That was probably the best episode so far this season. It had a lot of cool stuff to makes things to come exciting. Oh, and I think Doreah (Dani's dragon-loving slave) is the hottest girl on this show, hands down. She probably has the sexiest accent ever.
If I could kill 3 people in all of the 7 kingdoms, the Tickler would not even crack the top 100. The way Ser Loras is described in the books he is the Helen of Troy of men, but they picked an average looking dude to play him. I seem to remember in the books, Brienne and Cat were not fugitives. Cat was able to convince Renly's guards of Brienne's innocence and they left the next day. I don't think the discussion between Littlefinger, Margaery, and Loras happened either. It was good because it sets up a conflict that happens a few books later. I envy all of you that haven't read the books. I remember the shock I had when Ned Stark was killed last season, and now Ive ruined it for the entire series.
It's still been really interesting to just switch off and watch them seeing where things end and what is different. Means you can also mostly understand the nuances of each move as it's happening instead of having to pause and repeat so often. Absolutely loving how everything is starting to come together this season.
The Renly death was awesome. If you turned your head for 10 seconds you would have missed it. Nice and quick
Kind of wanted to see him around a little longer, we hadn't scratched the surface with his character. O well.
This is speaking to Arya's childishness. Despite her ability to act like a badass, she is a 10-year-old girl, and they know nothing outside of their immediate troubles. She is not thinking of the war or who is going to rule the Seven Kingdoms, she is thinking of the people who have personally wronged her. Look at her prayer: Cersei and Joffrey are in there only because they had to do with her father's death. She doesn't whisper any other names that hold any sort of power in the grand scheme, because she doesn't yet know what that means. It didn't, and that's the best part of the series. Instead of just following the book to the letter, they're expanding the universe and making it exciting for people who HAVE read the books. All of a sudden there are new elements that we didn't see before, and it's augmenting a lot of things that Martin only hinted at in the books. He's a clever man for giving us something new to keep our wails of frustration at bay while we wait for book 6.
I also think part of it was because she didn't quite believe Jaqen when he said he would kill three people for her.
I was a little confused when the dude was talking with Ayra. I got the feeling he was from Milisandras part of the world or at least from the lands that aren't Westeros, he repeated the whole "Death must pay for life" mantra the witch in the last season talked about. He seems like another good character addition but his origin as of this episode is kind of cloudy for me.
Didn't he also say his god was the "Red God"? I may have misheard that but I'm almost positive he dropped that line. If so that differs from the book. Wonder if they'll draw a connection between him and Melisandra. Or if it's just easier to say that then introduce yet another god into the story.
If Arya won't put him on her hit list, here's to hoping at least Bronn will gut THIS little shrew: Spoiler ...it's as if they took the most unlikable things from the biggest douchebags in history and assembled them together into this one cowardly metrosexual Voltron. Every time he's on screen, I want to break cinder blocks with my forehead. The actors/actresses who play the "bad guys" on this show are so apt at getting under the viewer's skin. Except Tywin. Charles Dance gets more awesome with each episode. He is shrewd, patient and cunning. He's also NOT an animal like so many of his underlings. I love how he admires Arya's back-talk and audacity.
My vote goes to Shea as hottest girl. We'll need to see more of Robb's girl to make a good judgement, titties swangin' during doggystye for proper comparison. Doreah has a kind of early Chasey Lane look sans fake tits.
