Stannis wasn't really coming from a position of power when he murdered Renly, it was more an act of desperation. If he hadn't have done it, Renly and his army would have either killed him or locked him in a dungeon for the rest of his days.

I find it hard to believe that the HBO CEO of Tits has ever said "fewer".

The violence isn't out of hand. In fact, this episode it got stuck directly IN a hand.

So Brienne is talking about avenging Renly, Littlefinger is saying the Boltons are outnumbered and outmatched, and on top of that, Stannis is acting nice… Things aren't looking good for the One True King of Westeros' chances of surviving Winterfell.

Littlefinger must have had spies in the Iron Islands, who would know of Ramsay's atrocities. Didn't he send back the flayed skins of Theon's crew as well? The Northern vassals should also know about Ramsay at this point, considering a lord and his family just got flayed.

Yeah, it doesn't really make sense that everyone seems to know that Robb was personally killed by Roose, but no one, not even Littlefinger, is aware that Ramsay has been sacking cities, proudly displaying flayed corpses and mailing body parts to houses around the world.

I'm pretty sure the two guys who led Mossador to his execution were Dothraki.

All I want from this film is to see a fly get punched directly in the face. Those fuckers have had it coming for a while.

Yeah, the Wildlings would have to make SOME sort of deal with the Southerners if they were to resettle in Westeros. It doesn't sound like they'd be able to take and hold much land through force alone. If they thought attacking Castle Black was tough, just wait until they attack somewhere people actually give a shit…

Yeah. Who was the staff member on the right of that photo? Leon Trotsky?

I skipped to about 3 minutes in, and didn't think it looked cheaply made at all. Then I realised that was just an ad for an app game. The show itself was exactly how I expected it to look.

Agreed, it felt like the interview was conducted by Murray's best friend Jim.

In Crusader Kings II, I arranged an assassination on a 5 year old in order to become the Duke of Swabia. I felt bad at first, but I bought indulgence from the church afterwards and never looked back.

I read that as "A Ball of Breasts", and now I'm disappointed.

I didn't put too much onions, uhhh, Paul.

That's some Spiderman shit there.

As far as comic books go, after the Hobbit I think Peter Jackson would be able to make a genuinely good Asterix movie.

Fair enough. I'm not sure what you're complaining about then. How would you suggest critics review these movies? Do they need to take into account that they're just cash grabs before grading them?

Wait, what? The Hobbit movies made alot of money? You've convinced me, they really were great films after all. I'll have to give them a rewatch with this in mind.

I like how all of the orc commanders in these movies always have to show how bad they are by repeating stuff like "slay them all" and "leave none alive!" Shouldn't that sort of be a given for orcs? Do orcs usually accept surrenders and take prisoners unless otherwise specified by their leaders?
