Did you grow up in the 90's? Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and his lesser works, Big Daddy and the Waterboy were huge parts of a lot of people's childhoods.

Well it will probably be equal parts racism and mocking white people's fear of latinos. As with all good comedy, it will I assume be an equal opportunity offender.

Will Ferrell could make nothing but crap for the rest of his career, and I would still, sadly, see every one of his movies. There's just something about his personality, he always seems like he's one step away from being absolutely fucking hilarious.

I think Catelyn Stark is the most misused character on the show, and the treatment of her character makes Sansa seem like a spoiled brat. The big difference: In the show, Catelyn begs Ned not to leave her and the family at Winterfell. In the books, Catelyn basically orders Ned to King's Landing to bring honor and…

Oh really? The people of Scotland aren't determining the future of their country based on a fantasy novel? They've had beef with England before the publication of A Game of Thrones? Wow, I did not know that.

It was originally pitched to HBO, and mainly paid for by HBO. From the wikipedia page 85 million from HBO 15 million from BBC for the first season.

Here is someone whose arguments you can't just attack with a quick misogynist ad hominem, unless you want to go the whole self hating woman route, that briefly summarizes why I am annoyed by Sansa. http://freethoughtblogs.com…

Well I knew that was coming. I've said nothing misogynistic, I've said she's been played by the Tyrells, a woman-run family, and by Cersei, who, last time I checked, was a woman. I wish your accusation came as a surprise, but I saw your original posts earlier in the day and have just kind of been waiting for this…

Yeah it does lead to his death. It lets Cersei know he's planning to move against her that very night. Her actions lead to his death, deny it as you will, it's a fact. And a lady in that world would know going against her father's and family's wishes is a major offense.

She does NOTHING to prevent herself getting raped and killed. How is she holding it together? By being? You yourself have said she's responsible for nothing since she's just been used. When she has played the game she's done horribly, gotten people killed as a result of her actions, and is still being held prisoner by…

I think it boils down to how tolerant you are to someone being played. Sansa's being played leads to her father's death, her captivity leads to Jaime being freed, she doesn't take the outs she's given. At no point does she masterfully play the game, which gets frustrating in a world of so many stellar players. I have…

It's being played because she turned from the Lannisters to an yet another connivingly manipulative family, and thinks it will be better somehow. She chooses to be a pawn again rather than taking her chance to escape the capital. The Tyrells do not give a crap about Sansa or justice, just power; they had just turned…

I wasn't referring to the poisoning at all.

I wonder how much this has to do with the accents. I know it's ridiculous, but people often get turned off by minor things.

Cersei is just an amazing character. She's crazy as hell, but with such clear cut motivations. It's like, even as you shake your head and say, "What a crazy bitch" you still identify with her motives and actions.

I wonder if Game of Thrones has fueled Scottish desires for independence

Sansa just has a lot of cultural expectations she is supposed to live up to. People hate her because they just want this empowered young modern woman like Arya, but Sansa is a more realistic character.

That's fine, but don't be surprised if people eventually lose interest. Several years of practically nothing happening and the same characters doing the same stuff. And Hollywood loves to stand assertiveness in for growth. A character who has always had the same motivations now acting on those motivations is the…

The show's plot development makes glaciers seem damn near fast

I blame their awful ad campaign. "Mad Men reads like a work of great literature" "The best drama to ever be on TV." Seriously some people at AMC need to remove their heads from their asses.
