Clearly she's responsible, but that is different than part of her plans. Being resigned to his inevitable death is quite different than having the Mountain kill him, as you said she would have done.

Cercei (via the Mountain) prevented Tommen from attending the trial. If she had wanted him dead, she would have just let him go.

And Targaryens.

The fact that it was failing allowed him to make up that ridiculous story about how he was never really trying to compete with Pied Piper. Until it started to fail, he didn't have an "in."

I loved how when the dogs first attacked Sansa started to turn away and then thought better of it and decided to watch a little longer.

We have stamps too!

Granted, it was a different actor, but he did beat him in the joust once.

I believe there was a line in there tonight about how some people volunteered to come to Wayward Pines. Add that to the story Yedlin tells about his dad and I assume we are going to eventually find out that his wife was one of those volunteers, right?

As, I'm not a citizen of your fine country, I don't entirely get how this taxation works.

Wait for the December release of Ubisoft's newest game Assassin's Creed: Fassbender.

Is there a more Middle Eastern Jewish name than Ewan McGregor?

I'll admit that I have never read Finnegan's Wake and I'm far from an expert on Joyce, but I have never heard those books described as a trilogy before. There are direct links between Portrait and Ulysses, but how is Finnegan's was a sequel and not just Joyce's next book?

I just mentioned in another post that Heller's works other than Catch-22 are under-rated. I probably should have specified that I wasn't including Something Happened. I don't think I ever finished it and the one thing I remember from what I did read was that contrary to the title, nothing happens.

To be fair, six years isn't that long between novel sequels. Especially if Ulysses is the second one.

Not sure how I would classify this one, but Roddy Doyle published The Guts 26 years after The Commitments. It's a bit odd, because The Commitments already has two sequels, (The Snapper, 1990 and The Van, 1991), but while those two novels concentrate on other members of the Rabbite family, The Guts catches up with…
