If you haven't you should definitely go back and read the section from books one and two where Sandor and Sansa interact. It's plain what he wants. And he's not chivalrous at all in his intent which is one of the things I love about the books - it shows how intentions and actions have unintended consequences so Sandor…

Sandor is evil as fuck, maybe not irredeemable but still evil as shit. He would have raped Sansa given a chance to get away with it. The swooning over him and over him/Sansa as some sort of couple is fucked up.

Yeah I have no doubt he's written himself into a preposterously complicated, large but restrictive corner and probably hasn't got a good way out. I'm kinda resigned to never getting the last two books at this point. Just wish the show had more of the subtlety that the books have.

Yeah I guess they have to finish because the cast budget will be out of control come the 8th season. That said if GRRM were to just wipe entire storylines off the board to complete the books he'd probably get more shit than he does for not finishing them.

The OJ show is great and I didn't find it hacky, admittedly that may be because the real events are crazier than anything a cheap hack would date to come up with.

I'd prefer that tbf, least the waffling has interesting detours.

Aaaand we're back to DnD being the hackiest hacks that ever hacked - can't think of an ending just destroy entire storylines in stupid dead end ways.

Yeah the practicalities can be awkward but intense passion is the mother of invention. I think it being Viggo definitely adds to the hotness, or at least seems to be a factor for most women I know who've seen it.

Every woman I know who's watched that movie finds the stair sex scene to be the hottest thing ever put on film…. until Eastern Promises naked sauna fight. For me though the brilliance of the sex scenes in AHOV is that the first one is so amazingly intimate I want to look away because it feels so personal. That's an…

For prudish a Americans it is, sadly.

Yes I've complained a lot about the site's increasing focus on politics but it's it because the focus has been incredibly shallow. A deeper and more nuanced analysis otoh would be great. And I think the Klein interivew's comments are a good demonstration of that.

Yeah I'm going to watch it tonight when I get back from work, it sounds fun. I guess I was just ranting about a pet peeve in general more than anything else.

I'm an atheist and it's clear bringing up "errors of research" when discussing vampires is a silly point.

Always annoying when fiction presents the Church as evil when it's combating actual evil. If vampires etc were real then you bet your ass the Church is the right side to take. Whereas really the church is genuinely an extremely dangerous and often evil entity why give them a justifiable reason for acting like that…

Which makes him the best comedy character (in the show).

Yeah as tough as it was for Corbyn and labour members to change the direction of the party it's going to be much much harder to change the Dems what with the different way the parties are run and how leaders are selected. In all honesty I have no idea how that changes in the short term.

While I sympathise with this response it's a problem because like all pop culture it needs coverage to grow so even by reporting negatively on Trump all the time you just feed his media machine.

Tack left social democratic like Labour did in the UK and pick up people who hate status quo. Or wait for more recession and war and the attendanct nationalistic/jingoistic fervour and hope for a minor civil war.

Agreed. The problem is capitalism as currently practised.

Yeah I think that's a good way to put it.
