What revenge on Littlefinger? How is Littlefinger supposed to know Stannis' army would wither away? He didn't even force her to go, he came clean and told her the truth and she accepted the position. All Littlefinger did was play Cersei for a fool and essentially get himself named Warden of the North. How has he…

Why? Quentyn was clearly fucked. He went in a weak, rich, entitled brat and got shafted. Then he thought, "I'm famous so clearly the dragons will love me!" and he got burned. He was entirely in keeping with my previous hypothesis.

It's not like he's zombified by her, he just comes back. And besides the "whole Red God thing" was already validated by the fact that Berric was risen from the dead before, and Mellisandre is immune to cold, and does see visions, etc. One way he could come back is to warg into Ghost, then into, I dunno, Hodor or…

I think that would be quite lame personally. I'm all for a good twist, but building up to a big reveal and pulling the rug out wouldn't be fun, it would just be kind of bad story-telling.

Jaime suffers as much as anyone. He is so good, and handsome, and famous that his entire life is ruined by the mad King to spite his father (names him to the Kingsguard when he doesn't know how to say no). Then he saves everyone in King's Landing from a certain death and is hated for it. His children never know he's…

Midnite Vultures is one giant send-up of modern culture. It's in the graking title, midnite vultures is not a nice way to describe people out at bars trying to get laid, it's mocking them. Why is it conservatives just cannot grasp the concept of irony?

Once you figure out how GRRM thinks, he doesn't subvert expectations very much. In the show maybe, but in the books you see the Red Wedding coming from a mile away. Same with the Baratheons/false Baratheon Lannisters dying. GRRM hates people who don't have any kind of struggle in life. The people who do, Littlefinger,…

Jon Snow's life IS the Song of Ice and Fire. He has clearly been established by myth/legend and the freaking plot to be the main character, at least one of two with Dany.

Interesting theory, I could see it. After all, They cut out the Green Grace and Hizdahr was assassinated, in the books they were part of the conspiracy. I think it's much more likely to just be a genuine home-grown insurgency though. Danny has already brought down Mereen in every meaningful sense.

Kit Harrington hasn't even read the books, he don't know jack, and that was such a rushed half-assed attempt to make the least surprising twist of the entire series interesting. Mellisandre didn't come back to Castle Black for no reason, she's no coward, she's a fanatic. If she though Stannis was going to win cause of…

I think it would have been neat to have Gendry poke his face up from the crowd in KL, if he was there of course, don't see where else he'd go.

I think he's dead. I think they wanted to do a double-cliffhanger with Jon/Stannis, so that it leaves death ambiguous in the future if they ever do the same, rather than leaving the audience thinking "Oh, they didn't show it!" ESPECIALLY when they reintroduce the Hound next season.

The faith definitely does do trial by combat.

Hasn't he ever played Assassin's Creed? A small pile of something soft can break any fall. ANY FALL.

Loser was released in 1994, Girl was released in 2005, about time he had another song of the summer.

You can do just about anything as long as you're not throwing it in my face.Do people realize how batshit rastafarianism is? It's not all smoking pot and being happy. It's some seriously weird ish, and I don't know anyone who holds it against Bob Marley.

Fuck yes! FUCK YES!!!! Good lord I love Beck.

Wow! He came back and finished! Dave Grohl is the real deal, not a pretender at all. Guess he'll be permanently walking after you..

My brother and I loved Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, less so Waterboy, and even less so Big Daddy (though I still liked it a lot as a kid). Yes they're dumb, call it nostalgia, what have you, they still have a home in my heart.

I thought this was excellent. I usually can't stand Jeff Ross, but the combination of social commentary and crude jokes really worked for me.
