Yeah, you either gotta marathon the show or quit your job and shut yourself off for a couple months to catch up on the books. Without one or the other you're sure to get something ruined before (and if) George RR finishes.

I think the 'without closure or satisfaction' part is yet to be seen. I can say that even after the Red Wedding, I root for Arya and Sansa more than anyone on that show (except maybe Tyrion, gotta love the underdogs). The Red Wedding caught me by surprise, especially the way it played out, but Ned dying set the tone…

I didn't see Ned dying coming at all. I was shocked and kept expecting some miracle to save him in the zero hour. It really set up what to expect from the show, that your expectations can and will be thwarted, so I agree with you on this one.

Yeah i got that. I was kind of joking.

and britches rhymes with witches! that's so great, you could have kept going. too bad you stopped. Leave em wanting more, right?

That's how it felt to me when I heard about it, like they just shoehorned it in to broaden the movies appeal to black audiences. Which I get and all, it's not like little black kids want to run around pretending to be Tony Stark, some super rich white guy, they want to pretend to be someone who looks like them. Which…

Did you burn the witch yet? Is it dead? You must not be a witch because I can see you're burning witches today. I hope you get them all, all them witches, cause then there wont be anymore, right? Then no one will think you're a witch cause you went and got em all.

Oh, so it's okay for non-humans to be anti-heroes but not heroes huh?? God, welcome to the 21st century dude.

As someone who's unintentionally put my foot in my mouth regarding race/gender issues on this site, I'd say you need to just tap out. You'll continue to get shitty responses from people who refuse to take your comment as innocent fanboy rage over a character you like being tooled with and you just need to ignore them.…

Hopefully not before they face multiple challenges that almost nearly demoralize our would-be-hero, leading to some inspired event that will unlock the secrets of their predicament.

Since you're 'one of those people' I guess I'll point out that grammar and spelling are two different things. Just sayin'.

ahh.. variables. it's also possible that whomever was in the iron mask was to be forgotten and ignored, so it wasn't written about.

I'm the same way, I like to read, but an epic, sweeping fantasy story is not usually what I enjoy reading, so even if I had heard about it I probably never would have picked it up. I started reading the first book not too long ago though just to see how it compared and I like it a lot so far, but since I started with…

Don't you mean it was Superior?

So after the wildly popular film How X-Men Got it's Groove Back then we'll see them?

I think after Looper Joseph Gordon Levit is the new young Bruce Willis. I see a yippie kai ya in his future

Take my advice man, if you don't want to book-spoil GOT for yourself, don't ever ask any question about it ever to anyone. Some asshole with a chip on his shoulder because he likes to read is gonna spill the beans on the one thing you didn't want to know about, then blame you for not reading thousands of pages of text.

The Walking Dead = drivers who floor it when the light turns green just to get to the next red light

I agree, most of the X characters don't stand alone very well, not even in the comics. But what about a movie where Gambit is seen doing his thing and we follow him as he goes from a hustler and thief on the dirty streets of New Orleans, to becoming a hero for whatever reason and in the end he's telepathically…

what's the conversion rate from quatloos to shrute bucks?
