Jaime also did it to piss of his fatherin the first place.

It's a writer's greatest weapon, the ability to just wipe a bunch of storylines off the board in the middle of things. I think it was Stephen King in a book on writing who said something along the lines of the best cure he's found for The Block is just killing half the characters and basically starting over from

I thought it was excellent motivation for killing his father, but overstressed as an obsession.

They're supposed to be incredibly intelligent animals.

The napalm stuff was invented by one of the first dragonriders tho, and one of the original 3 conquering dragons was killed by a ballista to the eye. So it's not advanced or new technology, but just stuff that hasn't been in popular use in a while. Haven't been that many wars in 300 years, only a couple in all I

Everytime we talk about it, using tense and grammar we understand. If we had two we'd probably have names for both of them and use them at appropriate times. It's something you'd pick up after a couple of conversations about the weather. The more important point is that Martin would have had someone mention it if he

Well to be fair the cure to greyscale is no longer attempted because it has a high likelihood of also killing the doctor. They do seem to indicate that it's been tried on younger, less advanced cases successfully.

One of the original Big 3 dragons was killed in this way 300 years ago. I would imagine no such weapons existed in he present because,well, because the team with the dragons won, and likely did away with significant anti-air weaponry.

I imagine it would take an astronomical amount of poison, more than you'd ever get smeared on an arrowhead.

That would actually have driven Tywin insane, the idea that his perfect children were thru cuckoldry, and his true born son was an imp. That would be incredible to learn. Tho the Lannisters have married into Targs before, so they wouldn't need such a direct lineage.

I honestly think that if she plans to do this, it will
be the trigger for Jaime finally killing her, just as he killed the Mad King.

The first wave of the Dothraki charge was full of mounted archers. They were featured heavily during the fight, leaping up on their saddles and firing while charging. What makes you day they don't have a lot of mounted archers when they clearly do?

I have a rational hatred for the technique in literature of ending a chapter with some variation of "and that was the last time he'd see her alive". I always have to stop and determine if this is something I even want to continue after that, no matter how good it was previously. I just, hates it forever. What is

He lost me the moment he derided serialisation and season long storylines. Which are probably the greatest advancements in science fiction television in decades. I don't even understand that as a critique.

The show doesn't seem in the least bit centered around the idea of not knowing that you're a robot tho. Or I should say, there's nothing to suggest that the audience isn't supposed to know who is and isn't one. It's seems like a fairly straightforward telling in that regard.

I got the feeling that the repetition is for unattended bots. Some have longer loops then others, and there seems to be parts of the stories that only play out when guests are present. The one that went crazy was described as having a death scenario that required a guest take him to a certain area, for example. So it

The Samaritan response gets mentioned. The bots are programmed to protect the guests from accidents and each other. A severe example was the man in black pulling the knife on Ford.

You don't generally have to work to get flies. I reckon most of the insects are real,and a lot of the birds.

They seem to use some robots during the orientation phase of things as well. No reason why they couldn't program them for various functions beyond park attractions.

Turns out they did, and it's pretty convincing in execution.
