The Wedding Massacre is in my top 10 episodes of this show. Shit got weird there.
Him reciting Shakespeare in Tromeo and Juliet is a thing of beauty.
You win.
I enjoyed it overall, even if it's basically A New Hope with new characters. It's very well made, has humour in appropriate places and Ray and Finn are great additions to the Star Wars universe.
It took me about 4 episodes of the first season to get into this show. It is really worth it, there's nothing quite like it on TV. I hate pretty much everything Lindeloff had ever done, this show is the one good thing in his entire writing career.
Well, I hope you're right.
With the new bad guy entering the story? It might happen next season, maybe. The rest of this season will probably be Rick vs another crazy person, who will do horrible stuff because drama. Some secondary characters may or may not die because drama.
True. I'd like to see a plotline where Rick and the group find people who are actually competent at maintaining a stable community and who are at least trying to build some semblance of civilization in this crazy world. The Governor people sort of tried to do that, but that plot quickly devolved into Rick vs Crazy…
For those of you who are pissed off with this mid-season finale - have you forgotten the S3 finale? There was a lot of hype about the ultimate final confrontation with the Governor, but in the end Governor just guns all of his people down and we have to wait another 8 fucking episodes to see this ultimate final…
Sven was probably renamed so that he wouldn't be confused with Kjartan's son. Game Of Thrones did that to a few characters. It's a small and insignificant change.
This was one hell of a season finale. I love this show, it was awesome from the first shot of the first episode to the last shot of the finale. So much great acting, so wonderfully shot. The writing balanced the book material with new stuff very well. I do miss some characters and scenes from the books that didn't…
It was the horse guy, whose name I didn't catch. The three of them - Uhtred, Hild and the horse guy - leave Guthrum's baptism and gallop into the sunset.
In general, The Warlord Chronicles is a much darker series than the Saxon Stories. It doesn't quite get to Game Of Thrones levels (Cornwell doesn't usually murder his characters for drama, like George R.R. Martin does), but there are some parts that depressed the hell out of me. In the end though, you see that Derfel…
Everyone talks about Alfred and Uhtred and Iseult and no one mentions Guthrum. First great scene is when he says to a monk whose hand he almost chopped off that Guthrum is the only god now and then he lets the monk go after the monk begs. Second great scene with him is when he talks about writing as magic and intends…
Perhaps you are right. When I read the books (The Warlord Chronicles is my favorite series of his, far above everything else), I had a feeling that his dislike of Christianity did translate on page. While he didn't invent the horrors of inquisition or the corruption of some priests, I felt that a lot of the priest…
I meant most of the priests, not every christian in the books/show. There are good ones of course, like Beocca or one badass Welsh priest who's probably cut from the show due to it having already a lot of badasses.
Yes, Cornwell dislikes Christians and makes no secret of this. The ratio of good vs despicable priest characters in his books (and I've read A LOT of his books) is about 1 to 20. It's connected to Cornwell's childhood experiences, he grew up in some weird cult.
Cheer up, Kyle, the show is cancelled.
I will forever love Katey Sagal for Married With Children and Futurama, but Sutter's worship of his wife gets embarrasing.
