Not all heroes wear capes. 

I still love the theory that Jar Jar was actually going to become the Dooku character, and that he was a secret Sith lord and the real “Phantom Menace.” There are hints throughout episodes II and III that support this theory (namely him standing by Palpatine as the Republic transformed into the Empire). 

Even 9-year-old me thought podracing was fucking laaaaaaame. And it still is. 

If Bran lives as long as the last Three Eyed Raven, the next succession crisis is over a hundred years off. And since he can see the future, he can predict his own death and arrange for a Westerosi style Kingsmoot beforehand.

Hoho beriberi

Yeah, I spoke to Pete Tomasi at NYCC last year, and he was PISSED that Bendis came along and pulled the rug out from under them. They had a lot of plans that will never be realized, and were going for 100 issues, similar to what Tom King is doing with Batman.  

Came here to say something similar to this. I’m incredibly excited about Hickman’s run, but Marvel (and oftentimes the Distinguished Competition as well) has had a really bad habit lately of starting these new initiatives RIGHT after other things are just getting going. As someone else already pointed out, this doesn’t…

I’ve been digging Age of X-Man too, especially as a counterpoint to Age of Apocalypse. I actually just read through the whole Age of Apocalypse omnibus as Age of X-Man has been coming out, and it was a fun parallel experience. I’ve been describing the latter as the Brave New World to the former’s 1984. 

I don’t even see how homosexuality has anything to do with a “war for our culture.” I can eat a hot dog and wave a flag just as well with a dick in my ass, thank you very much.

This is worse than that time in college when I started writing a screenplay about a character (based on me) who made a deal with the devil to carry out his mission to re-make Spider-Man 3. But then I realized how stupid that was and wrote something else. Still really fucking hate Spider-Man 3 though. 

Fire & Blood is specifically a book of Targaryen history. A World of Ice and Fire is the more general book of history. So George is outright saying at least one of those shows will be about the Targaryens.

At the end, they make it to a long-lost facility, meant to activate Daisy Ridley’s powers and save everyone, but it’s not the place they were looking for/the machine they needed is broken, and it’s just another dead end. The bad guys close in on them. Daisy discovers that she doesn’t need the machine they were looking…

That’s not how the Force works!

That scene was meant to humanize the Lannister soldiers, but here’s a fun fact for all you non-book readers out there: “Hands of Gold” is a a song by Symon Silvertongue, a singer who stumbled onto knowledge of Tyrion’s relationship with Shae and wrote the song with the intention of blackmailing Tyrion. “For hands of…

That’s fine. Dorne is weak in both mediums.

Said this already in a different comment, but no one survives except Sam and Bronn. 

Except we got to learn a lot about what it takes to make a good queen/king. Nobody survives except Sam and Bronn. 

She explicitly tells Jorah once they get to Mereen, when Jorah is urging her to take her new ships and sail to Westeros, that “you cautioned me before about being rash.” From Qarth, she learns a lot about thinking before she acts, and questioning people’s motivations before she trusts them.

Thanks, Sam.

none of that mattered except to explain why Daenerys has a big army to invade Westeros
