Who said no one is allowed to criticize him?

I don't particularly care to defend Whedon's behavior in the mess that has become his marriage but this article seems like hindsight 20/20 revisionism. To diminish Whedon's value as a feminist writer at a time when his dirty laundry is being aired seems like an attack spurred by his wife's revelations and not an even…

Alfred Molina is such an underrated actor. He's a consummate professional.

Scott Baio may not have taken the taxpayer money but did make Zapped! so he has stolen money from innocent, hardworking people before.

Nice points but I think you left out a more fitting Kafka protagonist in Josef K when describing Naz. I think there's that same type of nightmarish slide into desperation for Naz as he vainly fails to navigate a government bureaucracy that wears him down with its calm indifference.

Holy crap. The novelist from House of Cards is Mickey Doyle? Mind blown.

This show is what Law and Order should have been if it were not for network executives pandering to mass audiences for high ratings with a PC depiction of the NYC justice system which, in reality, grinds people up and spits them out. The assembly line indifference, crass opportunism, and casual racism of our law…

He should have committed "Jew crimes."

Rebecca DeMournay in The Hand That Rocks the Cradle after she lures Julianne Moore's character to her death. Look it up. Vicious.

When it was compare to Daenerys' attempt to conquer and liberate Maureen.

Well, it solved Rome's problem. It didn't solve Carthage's problem unless you count an entire city's decimation as "final solution" to its societal problems.

If the show/series is as realistically based upon historical events then Martin, Benioff and Weiss should be smart enough to understand that even burning Maureen, Yunkai, or Astrapor won't solve the problem. The Romans razed Carthage, the Spaniards razed Tenochtitlan, the Mongols razed Baghdad and in each case new…

I don't understand your point? Every act he does is personal to the person he rape, tortured, killed, mutilated, abused, etc.

The whole series is about technicalities, lest we forget about how figuratively many of the prophecies and visions in the book turn out to be.

He's a sadistic, sociopathic piece of shit. That's what he's done wrong.

Its been uneven but we've definitely seen the show outpace the book. Melissandre's age, the Gravedigger theory all but confirmed by Ian McShane, R+L = J reveal, an insight into the Others in the Land of Always Winter, Stannis' eventual demise, etc.

But isn't getting harder to see where the show and the books deviate the more and more the former leaves the latter behind?

I don't see it as foolish at all. The tinfoil hat theorizing is one of the perks of being a fan of TSOIAF series. The best fiction is the type that can inspire the imaginations and arouse the passions of its fanbase. Just because a theory isn't right doesn't mean that it wasn't worthwhile because the fun is in the…

Tinfoil hat theory: What if Bran is the one who took Dayne's Valyrian steel sword Dawn? Its been missing all of these years but what if the secret is that Dawn was transported to the present? Even better yet - what if Dawn is Lightbringer?

A confused Hodor emerging from the Great Weirwood tree in the midst of wasteland created by a vast apocalyptic war between the forces of fire and ice would be a nice Western-equivalent to that scene.
