100% agreed. What good is years of character development without all of this payoff? The incredible battles and visual effects sequences we’ve gotten this year are more than enough to make up for the fact that some head-scratching moments.

Given the way Westeros works, he’s lucky he didn’t get dissolved in acid.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy’s skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something?

Honestly? Right there with you, dude.

So you have a problem with the zombie dragon breathing fire after damage to its imaginary fire glands, but you don’t have a problem with skeleton zombies being able to move without any muscles?

Yeah, this was so far down my list of problems with this season that it didn’t even register.

He’s a zombie dragon. Who gives a shit about the logic of him being able to breathe fire?

I completely, 100% agree, and I imagine that this stance might be a bit easier to take if you haven’t read the books.

I don’t agree with him wholesale, but there was an awful lot of back-patting going on with Wonder Woman.

It makes Disqus look good and that’s fucking hard

AVC commenterati on Kinja has been the treat of my week.

He is the Kinja of people.

Pssst. Hey, Shkreli. Know what would really piss people off? Buy the AVClub and get rid of Kinja. Journalists hate that one weird trick.

This is Kinja, you can’t make changes! Next you’ll be asking to be able to delete your account.

It’d be great if you all could add the basic ability of letting us change our account password.

I think it would be really interesting for him to be a lefty-hipster teenager (the kind who asks his banker dad to buy an old volvo instead of a new car) who slides into fascism and violence with the temptation of power. 

A rushed, hard-to-follow mess which consistently alienates its audience.

Cows don’t look like cows on film. You have to paint a horse.

One of the biggest tensions in the original works is that the kid who is a model of Japanese societal success turns into a mass-murderer almost instantaneously after being given the power to kill anonymously. That’s why the potato-chip scene works so well. We’re literally watching an ostensibly good person internalize…

HOW DO I VIEW COMMENTS IN ORDER OF HOW MANY STARS THEY HAVE? WHAT CONSITUTES THE ORDER THEY ARE DISPLAYED? IS IT OLDEST ON TOP?
