Yep, that's basically the music supervisor's job.

Goddamn that's really one of the five or six best movies of the decade, isn't it.

I feel like that is at least under the cinematography umbrella, at least.

Definitely a little bit. It has a lot of the claustrophobic, scattered, single-character perspective elements of Black Swan (another Portman performance, obviously), and it definitely hits some of the more baroque notes that Aronofsky can ring. Overpowering sound design in a bunch of spots—discordant strings, almost…

Caught Jackie last night and yes, the score is terrific, but the mixing on the film is outstanding too.

I (hypothetically) didn't think he was going to be the new hero, out of nowhere, but it seemed like an appropriate hurdle for Dany.

Right, and I think it's important because, as seen on the show, Stannis is about to do something totally unforgivable to his daughter.

There's a pre-sale through their w.a.s.t.e. website. Probably have to be on the mailing list or something?

Speaking of high horses.

Not a Kennedy scholar by any means, but I was picking up some serious sexual tension between Jackie and Bobby in this…

Unfortunately there can only be one movie at a time.

Alas, Trump is probably too busy stuffing Christie into a locker.

There was something really apt about Trump getting a literal Springsteen cover band after Bruce played Hillary's last rally, though.

Victarion is pretty stupid (much more stupid than Stannis), but his chapters in Dance are also an interesting look at how Stannis might have been taken in by Melisandre's promises.

Kind of weird to couch this news as HBO bargaining for more episodes, when it's obviously more about Benioff & Weiss revising their final season outline based on how S7 is shaping up…

Preface: I just finished the books so this is kind of hypothetical for me, but—

Spoilers!

Targy Melstannis: The Game of Thrones

Actually, no it doesn't.

Yes I was aware of that, thank you—just as I'm aware nobody gave a flying fuck until the Young Pope memes started.
