Yay! Let's all talk about this movie forever! One of the things I love that this move does is often have Tom in possession of information the audience doesn't have. So many films do this the opposite way you don't even really notice it. It's only when a film like Miller's Crossing repeatedly tweaks the trope that you

I'm not sure if this is the answer, but the only JC movie I can think of with a fight in a department store is the first Police Story. A great action film btw, filled with some of his most bonkers stunts.

Whoo yeah! The Project A films are probably my favorite Jackie Chan films. Peak Jackie! Project A 2 is a great action film as well. Nice to see the love!

Hopefully she can pick up one of Littlefinger's patented teleporters and get herself to the fireworks factory ASAP.

I thought she was going to pull some detective shit and see that there were no wet footsteps leading beyond past the water and that's how she would know Arya ducked inside…but no.

Agreed. They really stuck the landing. If they didn't do a second season I'd be super happy with this anyway.

Yay! I know somebody remarked on an earlier review something like "Why aren't more people viewing/commenting on this show?". I know my reason was that I'd binge watched the whole season in just a few days after release. I figured I'd just wait until these last couple of episodes since they brought everything together

I did NOT see the emotional wallop this episode packs coming. When Maria is sobbing holding Blossom, oh man. I really liked the show, but this episode (and the next) just put it over the top. Great show!

I was really waiting for her to wake up with a start from a nightmare when the stabbing started. When I saw it continuing and, no, this is really happening, I went full John McEnroe. "You can NOT be serious!"

Truly. That was Arya at her most Ned Stark-ian. Just forehead-slappingly dumb.

And there are the crypts beneath Winterfell. Seems a good bet he'll be able to find roots there to grab onto, if that's how it has to be done anyway.

I thought part of it too was that she was telling him things she could not have known.

Yeah, she was way too happy recounting that "information". The kind of happy one might be, say, if you were talking about going home and having a great breakfast.

I'm so conflicted! The Iron Islands is some of my favorite stuff in the books. The Damphair's repeating of, "No Godless man shall sit the Seastone Chair!" until it becomes a punchline! Victarion's impotent rage! But it looks like they're going with just one of my least favorite characters in the series. I really,

Planes, Trains and Automobiles sees Steve Martin and John Candy in particular do some really amazing work. There's the, "I like me. My wife likes me" scene, and the one in the diner/restaurant when Steve Martin is trying to separate himself from John Candy's character who is all wounded resignation.

The only thing I can think is that they're replacing Brienne's systematic dismantling of the Mummers with her gloriously beheading Ramsay Snow. We can but dream!

I can understand the need for brevity and having to cull and cut down on threads, but losing Cat of the Canals and the three things she learned today stuff kinda breaks my heart. I loved it all so much. Plus the fact that they haven't broached Warging for any of the other Starks aside from Bran makes me further wonder

lol, I love the wrestling angle that they jobbed out Areo Hotah to the Snakes to put them over.

I suppose at this point they're following George's notes, because, "Remember all that stuff in Dorne last season that stunk and ground the show to a halt whenever they showed up? Here's more of that!" seems like not a great move. Here's hoping they find a way to make Dorne stink less going forward.

"White Belly" is my favorite. Yeah, whole lotta "Belly"ing going on there. Don't let it concern you. Great song.
