That’s exactly what I call kids you could tell bought all their gear on one or two shopping sprees. I still listen to my old punk (Dead Kennedys, Pennywise, etc.) sometimes so once when we drove past a couple kids dressed in the gear anf she asked if I ever dressed like that, I told her no because those are…

I don’t even consider Tyrion a LAnnister anymore, since they’d probably kill him for killing their father. And yes the Queen od Thorns is a killer, but that only made me like her more. She didn’t do it for politics or revenge, but to spare her granddaughter an awful life. Plus the story of her stealing her sister’s…

Yeah I was hoping they would show that the one who agreed to have faith in and not betray her had poured something down or something like that to explain the fire spreading everywhere like it did.

Starred for “Gendry, olympic rowing champion.” My problem is while I’m with you on Cersei and Jaime, I like the Queen of Thorns so dang much, it’s hard to root against her side. Queen Margaery I like as well, but the Queen of Thorns is awesome

He looked ready to kill her when she told him she killed him, but I think if he heard about the princess Shereen’s fate he wouldn’t feel the need to avenge...well maybe, but it would be against the red priestess.

I was hoping they were going to do more with the impact of Wanda in the field (they did some and obviously used it as a jumping off point, I know) because that was such a realistic situation, a quick decision in the field that saves lives but costs others, particularly when you look at it as soldier saving soldier…

Giant-Man could have gone so wrong, but I loved it! You’re right they do a great job of making the material fit film, like their way of including “red wing” which I thought was a great shout out to comic fans while avoiding having Falcon, you know, talking to a falcon.

Less torture and more external world building! I am the same way about world building; put it to you this way, one of my favorite scenes, which excited me when Stannis went there, was actually going to the Iron Bank. I was excited going to a bank! But I enjoy a world that can be fantastic yet grounded. Armies need…

As I hear about different storylines that have been cut or streamlined I for the most part think they do a good job, but that is a really interesting aspect of their world they seem to be forgetting. It would mean so much more later if there were little reminders that pieced together to the larger point later,…

The metals thing is great, I wish they had used that. I never felt tv Stannis was a true believer either, just obsessed with what was his to the point that nothing else mattered. Including...well you know. I just don’t like that he had just done the nice speech (at which point my wife and I immediately looked at each…

Can you explain “screwed up Tyrion’s storyline by cutting out his motivation for killing his father and the whole purpose driving him while he’s in Essos and going to Dany” a bit? What did they leave out?

They touched on that a little in the show early on if I recall, but have largely forgotten about it, which seems like an awful oversight because it is really interesting.

Aaaaaah, thank you. So he was dumb. Well that does sound like a plot that wasn’t that necessary, though potentially funny and a good you-thought-this-was-going-somewhere -but-nope fakeout, which happens a lot.

I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a show decision, like Ramsay raping Sansa, although I think it was desperation and blind lust for the throne that made tv Stannis (or I’m- glad-he’s-dead Stannis as he’s known in my home) do it. Is he that singularly focused in the books?

Thanks, I knew there were some I was forgetting.

I was tired of the Ramsay stuff mid-Theon. At this point it no longer informs us about the character because we know this already, he’s a cruel sadist, Joffrey 2.0. At this point the only thing shocking would be to make him not awful, but we’re past that as am option. And yes, I kept hearing about how “the North…

I’ve always liked that just because the show has magic and prophecy that doesn’t mean everyone claiming it is telling the truth; some are lying to others, some are lying to themselves. We live in a world without magic and a lot of people claim they have they have it, or psychic abilities, so imagine how many frauds…

So it sounds like a case of good editing on the show’s part yet again. Although it sounds like there’s a good storyline with her and the prince of Dorne, I don’t know the book version name, something ending with an, I’ll say heated, rejection? Or did I understand that wrong? Or was it also not that interesting?

I hope you don’t mind me randomly picking you out but I had a question for a reader of the books, and since I’m grey I can’t really just throw this out there because no one will see (if this gets un-greyed, please anyone let me know what you think). The Daenerys plotline feels like it’s dragging to me (maybe you…

I’m so hoping your right, both because that storyline needs an injection of interesting and because I just don’t want to watch more Ramsay torture; I frickin’ get it, he’s awful. It’s not like I could want him more dead than I already do. Also, because like many here, I want shaggy to not be dead, and to appear at…
