He’s also good with knots.

Yeah, that scene is still awful and misogynistic, even if we can appreciate how talented Curtis is within its mean-spirited framework. 

Definitely agree about Aegon. Wasn’t sure about him in Season 1, but Season 2 is like wow, they’ve molded something a lot more complex here.

I saw True Lies late—whenever it originally came out on home video—and was pretty startled by how the movie treats Curtis’s character, compared to the fun reputation the movie had. The strip scene may scan as empowering and funny to some, but she’s manipulated into it by her own husband, and not just to “give her…

Oh, that makes more sense.

It’s right up there on screen. They have her out on a fucking crane. Disgusting!

The book in this case is presented as a history book - it’s not meant to be a representation of exactly what happened but a compilation by an archmaester historian and there are even inconsistencies within the accounts he collects. It’s entirely fair for the show to add or change motivations or events. And given GRRM…

I’ve been locked out of my original account for a while now. One day we’ll crack it! 

Spoilers ahead so don’t read if you want none.

Genuinely love this show’s soundtrack.

“How significant would it be if Cameron indeed made room for something like True Lies again, written and designed for this side of the 21st century?”

It definitely doesn’t. I thought it sounded good, but it doesn’t fit at all. What can I say, I screwed up!

Facts, man. It was one of the best parts of season one. I had no idea that a second season was coming; this is great news!

You will find him outside of Panucci’s Pizza.

Five episodes and no Nettles, with all the other Dragonseeds accounted for. I really, really, really hope she hasn't been cut. I think that would be a catastrophically bad adaptation choice.

There is no recorded instance of a dragon rider claiming a second dragon in the text, but the characters in the story clearly believe that it’s possible, and they would know better than we would. Aegon II considers taking a second dragon in Fire and Blood. Viserys I just didn’t like flying—Balerion granted him…

Rhaena has been pretty awesome lately, which makes me really afraid they’re about to kill her off. I don’t feel like I really trust this show not to be completely transparent with its foreshadowing, so hearing her talk about how she wants her death to be in dragonfire was not comforting.

Balerion was the black dread not Vhagar.

To be fair to Indy, that was a “well, you could come out to the movies with us or we can get you a sitter if you’d rather stay home” situation where she was choosing not to have a sitter more than actively wanting to see the movie.

Well, now that you mention it:
