Wait, what? Kinja? NOOOOO.

Yeah, I think you're right. Tyrion finds out in either Clash of Kings or Storm of Swords.
*shrug* Maybe.
I was just trying to remember this myself. I don't think they ever said in the show outright that it was Joff or Baelish who hired the cutthroat…just "the Lannisters." I might be forgetting something, though.
I've been around a while, I know all about good old Ricky.
Littlefinger originally owned the blade. He lied about losing it to Tyrion in a bet on the jousts when in fact the dagger went to Robert Baratheon. It's never made explicit (in the show at least) that Littlefinger was the one who sent the assassin but his attribution of the dagger to Tyrion Lannister more or less sets…
Bit weird, mate. Bit weird.
Also absolutely fucking loved the callback to Roy Scheider in Jaws when Bronn is aiming the ballista at Drogon. "Come on ya fucker!" is almost as good as "Smile, you son of a bitch!"
I remember him saying something about the all of the smiths in King's Landing working on more of them when he tried it out on Balerion's skull, so I don't think it's the only one. Maybe the only operational one.
I doubt Jaime will die without at least some kind of closure between him and his siblings. Bronn…probably alive, but given that he shot a giant piece of steel into Drogon I doubt Dany will be feeling terribly charitable towards him.
I wonder if Qyburn was dirty enough to dip those big iron bolts in some kind of nasty poison.
Holy moly. Field of fire, indeed. I didn't expect the first meeting of dragon and Westerosi army to be quite so terrifying. I love how well they captured the absolute terror of entire groups of soldiers being incinerated.
Ghost is alive in both show and book at this point.
Given that Arya has been warging into her direwolf in her dreams for a while now in the novels I can't really see the reunion scene going the same way as the show. They've still got a strong psychic connection in the books.
Bring on the samurai!
The only thing I can figure is that they do an okay box office in the States while also making huge money overseas.
Hey, the mortgage ain't gonna pay itself. Go get that dumb movie money, Pamela.
I'd pay good money to see Harrison Ford lay a haymaker on Chris Hardwick's jaw.
Mmmm…nah. I'll pass on this one.
Woof. That is really bad.
