Second edition? Those are like ancient tomes to a young, naive fool like me. How exactly are those earlier editions different from today's?

I would call it a sacrifice. In part because he sacrificed sure victory to give Cersei and her kids mercy, and in part because he went up their (take the black or execution regardless) to save his kids.

Was it a hero's death? It seemed to me that Bran still had some kind of control there. Hodor may not have had much choice.

Has that been confirmed? I was sure it was just a theory?

The amount of time given to Rhaegar theories astounds me. People in real life seem to be as obsessed with him as people in the books were.

I dunno about that. As we've already seen, Bran can be pretty incorrigible with the warging. Plus, he's, um, at that age. If he wargs into Meera, he might well have her pull something.

Oh, I agree. It's just nice to see stuff that for years has only been speculation between fans actually play out in front of you.

I dunno, maybe they can export all that pillaging and raping? they could be like an Uber for murder. If a high born lord wants a rival attacked and distracted, he just pays them go and wreak havoc.

This episode was a mixed bag for me. A lot of set-up and planning, though all in all it was still okay.

That's a shame. I was quite looking forward The Neon Demon. I'll still see it to make up my own mind, but this doesn't really bode well.

Whenever I read something like that in a review I tend to give the writer the benefit of the doubt and assume that there was something so very specific about the actor's performance, that the word is needed.

I do agree that some journalistic circles have an air of smug pretension, even if they are generally nice people.

Why exactly is booing/jeering allowed at Cannes?

I'd say Pattinson has been a little less fortunate than she has. Probably because of the roles he chooses. That guy is addicted to starring middling, indie fare.

Having recently seen the fantastic Starred Up, and having greatly enjoyed Sicario, seeing David Mackenzie and Tyler Sheridan working together makes very interested in Hell Or High Water.

I assume Whovian is jokingly referencing the Rifftrax of Twilight, in which a recurring joke is "Umm…line?", owing to the fact that a lot of dialogue (her character's especially) has noticeably long pauses in-between them.

I think "anti-charisma" is a good way to describe how a lot of actors (and some filmmakers), particularly younger ones, approach dramatic roles. Apparently, being utterly dull and unbearably somber is what "great acting" is.

It might be slightly mocking, but a lot of the attention on Stallone seems to still come from a place of praise. Granted, he's much more prolific than Stewart, but even the movies that most people admit are bad are looked at in a fond, or at least accepting light.

I quite liked the travelogues and I think the bad rap they got (in the books I mean) was undeserved.. The travelogues worked (to an extent) because some of the better moments of the series can come from a character just stewing in their own juices.

I just assumed that the braziers already had oil in them for fuel.
