They certainly don’t have a good track record for writing women or people of color. The white savior narrative is like the main plot of their current show and they’re writing beyond the source material has been trash. I have zero confidence that they’ll be able to handle this subject, they can’t even articulate their

Lena Headey is phenomenol and I love to go back and watch how her power grows as the series progresses. I love Cersei, I’m so glad they found an actress who can really nail that role.

They are pirates and he is the best pirate who has spent the last 30 years pirating. And Yara’s ships were hanging out directly in his path, so it’s really not as surprising as people seem to think it is.

I’m interested to see how it does. Even with the press before release my high school students still have no idea who Wonder Woman is. Then again, we are two hours from the nearest theater so maybe they’re just apathetic about movies in general.

Ugh, Han Solo is shaping up to be a disappointment and I was sooo excited for Donald Glover/Lando. I hope it’s at least fun and I’m sure Glover will be great.

Christmas week is peak movie attendance in the US. Citation, I used to work in a movie theater.

I’ve always believed the key to a good party is to make it easy for everyone involved. I just told my bachelorette people that I wanted to do something during the day because none of us can handle staying up past 11PM anymore. So we went to a friend’s house for brunch, drove to a local swimming hole, drank beers from

Then I’m ready to see the Dothraki hoard slice off some Lanister heads.

Consummation is how you sign a marriage contract. Plus the whole point of these contract royal weddings was to produce an heir and further strengthen political alliances.

There was a storm and heavy fog, which means they didn’t see the ships until they were shooting fire balls at them and ramming them. But, it does seem like Yara was uncharacteristically relaxed and confident considering they know their uncle is hunting them down and they’re still in enemy waters.

I am bummed that the CGI budget shifting to focus on dragons means we lost a lot of the warging stuff.

May he rest in peace.

I can’t wait for them to congratulate themselves for their portrayel of race in the Confederetes.

I love this show/book precisely because all of the women are dicks or flawed in the same way that male characters typically are. I love that even the protypical bad ass woman warrior Brienne is such a tragic hero. It’s also why I roll my eyes everytime Lyanna Mormont says something “bad ass” or when the Sand Snakes

All of the after shows make me realize how dumb they are. They can’t write for shit.

She’s engaged to Robin in the books.

I rewatched Season One this weekend and it was even more satisfying to see these storylines reconnecting. Tyrion’s time on the wall and his grand tour of Westeros and beyond is going to be really important this season. Is he the only character who has actually had a conversation with every other (living) character?

I’ve never been much invested in the Missandei/Grey Worm relationship, mainly because they’re so on the periphery of the main storylines. But I found Grey Worm’s halting speech about Missandei being his weakness moving.

Watching the show with my husband and seeing Euron’s ships emerging from the fog.

Have you read a fantasy before?
