It's not a terrible movie, by any means. "Not great, but interesting," as Just Ask This Scientician says, is probably very fair.

I watched both, but I still think he had too much presence for the character. I'm looking forward to being proven wrong.

I love Ian McShane, but I'm not sure if this sounds like good casting or not, as McShane's acting is maybe a bit over-masculine and aggressive for the very collegial Brutenholm.

I figure that he's just practicing for the awkward conversation that will happen in the last episode of the season, when he finally meets Queen I-Have-More-Titles-Than-Somebody-From-Warhammer-40,000.

I wonder if Anderson would have made incomprehensible action movies, a la Michael Bay, if he hadn't been exposed to the French New Wave.

Congratulations?

"Man, Cersei really gives no fucks now when it comes to flaunting her true relationship with her brother in everyone's faces, huh?"
