I know what you mean, but by "iconic", I think he meant "recognizable by non-comic fans."

Lewis and Holyfield were more consistent; I wouldn't say they were more talented. Lewis in particular had no chin to speak of. And they were both considerably taller (and larger in Lewis' case) than Tyson.

Except Lundgren could have been a legit scientist (chemical engineer) had he not been lured away by that sweet, sweet Hollywood cash.

Suffice it to say, other people die who can (read: will) be brought back…

Or that the endgames of the show and books will be quite different.

Except Lady Stoneheart, Beric Dondarrion and…wait for it…(OR GO AWAY! SPOILERS!)…soon to be Jon aren't zombies (i.e. the living dead); they're been brought back to life.

The highlight of this episode for me was fighting-shape Granddad being modeled after Sagat.

It's not so much that Tyrion didn't bother with him. Tyrion isn't a knight. He's a rich intellectual who lives in a castle, and was in a battle once. He has no actual need for a squire. Hence, Pod has no useful squire fieldskills.

Based on the average length of releases thus far, and assuming GRRM doesn't extend the series (again) beyond 7 books, I will be 50 by the time I finish the series.

Not to mention that, had Tywin NOT been on the shitter, he'd have likely bitch-slapped Tyrion and thrown him back in the Black Cells.

She could agree to withdraw from the election - not too hard to justify if she's placing 3rd anyway - and endorse the frontrunner with the understanding that she'll be named as his running mate.

I thought they already had, and that was the basis for their hate.

At the end of the day, the NBA is a product, and nobody wants to see players throwing themselves to the ground at the slightest contact, then looking up at the ref to see if they're going to get a freebie for their performance. That's why we've got (underused) fines for flopping now. 20-30 years ago, the handful of…

Exactly. I sure as hell wasn't going to learn to skate and deal with the 5am practices that my hockey-playing classmates were attending, but I'll enjoy the hell out of watching these moppets dispatch the competition with relative ease and ridiculous gimmicks, and pretend I'm right there with them.

Blur's original short "A Gentlemen's Duel" is also pretty rad.

Ridiculous. Jeff Garlin would play Goldberg, obviously.

People who don't necessarily like hockey but like kids' sports movies (like myself) love movies like The Mighty Ducks and Little Giants.

He got eaten by The Beast during a pickup baseball game.

They're not soft compared to your average guys on the street. But compared to NBA players from the 80s and 90s, yeah, they're soft. They might actually be better-conditioned athletes, thanks to advances in training methods and sports medicine, but the whining and complaining they do these days would get them laughed…

Although they gave me disturbing thoughts about the mechanics of Hodor's conception…
