Gross, dude. Just stop. Her analysis of the episode was thoughtful, nuanced, and streets ahead of someone who suggests that an episode should have included sexual violence when it didn’t.

This goes some way to confirming my feeling about S7. Whereas every other series appears to have been based on books, with connective tissue that makes sense of the big scenes, this last batch of episodes felt more like it was based on notes.

At least with other fantasy settings you can kind of justify it by channeling advancement into whatever magic system the world has: the reason they’ve gone from medieval technology to slightly more advanced medieval technology instead of airplanes and computers is that invention and discovery is largely diverted into…

Well, if you consider that our last ice age was 10,000 years ago, things were pretty much the same (speaking relative to today) from a technology perspective for 9,000+ of those years.

I think he’s lying on the beach, drinking a catamaran.

That is weird. I got nothing to add, but, yeah, it’s weird...

Plus, who are the Starks’ trusted advisors at this point? These used to be named, recognizable characters. “This guy with badass sideburns is Podrick Cassell, who served as your father’s and brother’s military advisor to House Forrestor. He’s returned to advise you.” 

Does anyone else find it weird that Cassidy had a hairy chest in Season 1 but in Season 2 it’s waxed? And his tattoos are different?

I haven’t read the comics and I’m bored out of my mind and other times I find it middlingly entertaining. Nothing like the first 2 episodes of this season. They now seem like another show altogether.

If you hadn’t read the comics, you’d feel bored. Well, that plus you might have to be me. Lol

It’s like...are we supposed to care about that ending? I felt nothing. There’s no stakes. We knew The Saint would be back. We know he won’t kill any of the main three characters. Who gives a ripe goddamn? It’s all so boring.

Boy, I’ve never fallen out of love with a show so fast. I was fully on board even a few episodes ago...but it really is going nowhere. And watching something like Twin Peaks last night, it almost seems an insult to that show to spend time with...this...tonight. Hur hur, Starr’s getting humiliated up the butt again.…

Just a test of the good old kinja commenting system that doesn’t register when I star a comment.

The comic book apparently begins with the search for God, and so hit the ground running as a road trip. The second season appeared to be finally following its lead, but seems caught in a cul de sac anyway.

That’s the problem with having just audio recordings of prayers: the context for that last one makes all the difference. Reminding Jesse of a previous time he was forced to submit to someone probably wasn’t the plan.

That scene in the intro where a butt-faced Morty is caught looking at face-butt porn never fails to make me laugh

“(Edit: Okay, a few of you have pointed out that they explain this in the episode, and that Rick considers it to be one of his toxic qualities. My bad for missing that (or at least not remembering it when I was writing the review).”

It’s weird this review sort of hinges on something that was explicitly made textual in the show. Rick views his feelings for Morty as toxic because he wants to be a logical, uncaring being; whereas Morty views his insecurities and timidness, as toxic when they actually define what makes him so useful to Rick.

Hey Rick, are you familiar with Ben Wa technology?

It’s a little upsetting Euron is still fighting with Cersei, my 2nd favorite moment from the episode was his ‘Fvck this shit! Peace Out’ moment. At least I’ll always have Littlefinger on the verge of tears when realizing that he wasn’t slippery enough to worm his way out of that one.
