It wasn't really time travel, though. She just moved their stuff around, she didn't really manipulate time. Ice King's done it better before… with magic.

Haha, this headline is the most laughably trivial fake problem in the universe. I see you've written a lot of words about it, though I'm not sure what kind of person would read them.

Putting a person's name in the headline implies that the reader should already know who that person is. All newspapers and news organizations leave names out of headlines except in cases where they are important or well-known (and even then, they often use titles like "Mayor" or "President" instead of names). I'd…

Cool article. Let me try to write a better one. "If you go where there are more players in Grand Theft Auto Online, more players will attack you." Done.

Yeah, I get that. But I guess the thing that really pushed it to another level for me was the elves casting fireball spells. Melissandre's magic has always been more religious mysticism and magician trickery, whereas fireball spells are total power fantasy/superhero stuff. And that stuff wasn't in the books,…

I go into more detail about this in a reply I have further down in the chain, but I really think people are making a mistake by assuming that the future of the show has anything to do with the future of the books. Even if Martin pulled off an impossible miracle and released Winds of Winter tomorrow and a Dream of…

I really think that, starting next season, the show is just going to pick up off the rails of the books and go its own way. I don't get the sense from interviews that G.R.R.M. is really on the same page as Benioff and Weiss. Martin seems to believe that they're going to delay the show to give him the time he needs…

Man, in retrospect, that scene at the weirwood tree really went full Dungeons & Dragons on the audience, didn't it? Fleshless animated skeletons and elves casting fireball spells? It's a good thing the show didn't give people too long to think about that stuff before it jumped to the next scene, or I bet a lot of…

Honestly, I found so many of the books' repeated catchphrases so irritating that my first thought upon seeing the television's version of Tywin's death was, "Thank god, I'll never have to hear Tyrion say, 'Where to whores go?' not even once!"

Aren't Bran's powers basically like Jojen's but on steroids? Can't he literally see into the past and shit? I always figured Bran would figure that shit out for Jon Snow, not Jojen. Jojen was basically on his deathbed in the final books anyways, wasn't he?

It's a bummer that the show took Mance Rayder and turned him into Miserable Northman #153. My dream casting for Mance was always for David Carradine to just reprise his role from Kill Bill, except with a lute instead of a flute. How much art must you destroy, auto-erotic asphyxiation?!

Somehow, the running joke wherein the Gang is arguing amongst themselves for several minutes only to eventually reveal that an outside party has been "involved" in the conversation the entire time always makes me laugh. That gag perfectly captures the essence of the show.

One of the many differences is that in your examples, AV Club isn't accusing the show of being misogynistic, they are merely pointing out misogynistic aspects of the characters within the show (that were most likely placed there intentionally by the writers). Whereas you are accusing Orange is the New Black of being…

Except Carol was only Walt's neighbor, not his wife, and he didn't literally dress her up like him. Lester is way scummier than Walt ever was, even at his worst.

Have it your way, Dude.

I don't understand how anybody can still be under the impression that Malvo's motives are mundane. Malvo killed everybody in the elevator as a demonstration to Lester, an aspiring pupil who falsely believed that he understood the Gospel of Lorne Malvo.

Was I the only one who thought that Linda's lying to Molly on Lester's behalf implied that she may have already suspected that her husband was a murderer? If we are accepting her as this 100% innocent character, she wouldn't have seen any reason to lie to Molly, because she wouldn't even believe that Lester could…

I'm pretty sure the fish tornado was intentionally Deus Ex Machina, considering the themes of that subplot and the prophetic nature of its conclusion.

Nah, I just went back and looked at the scene, and there are only four people at the table. Malvo is sitting next to an attractive woman and Stephen Root has his arm around a lady, but they are definitely the only four people sitting at the table.

No, it wasn't. I'm pretty sure he was talking to Stephen Root. Which means whatever character he was hasn't been introduced yet, and he will definitely be introduced and become significant in the final episodes (Stephen Root is not an extra).
