Game of Thrones - TV Series (NO BOOK SPOILERS)

[Emos]

You see, to me, it was a breath a fresh air. Every other story line has characters that you love and are somehow impossible to harm. Martin treats the characters like the sacks of meat that they are, and the result is so jarring that it's wonderful. I think it's been years since I've read fiction books where I was actually in suspense over what would happen.

Spoiler

If this were the end of the books, and Martin declared the war over, I might have been upset, if for no other reason than the end was so inglorious. But he didn't. Power is balanced shortly after this and we start from square one. This is the way war tends to work in the real world, with enormous amounts of horrible damage on both sides.

Go back to the episode where Melisandre was doing the incantation with the leeches fat with Kings Blood and notice the three people she named. One down,

Spoiler

two to go

So, having not read the books or watched anything past Season 1, does everyone "get theirs" eventually?

I don't really want to watch people being dicks and shits and not get the satisfaction of seeing them all die.

There we have it, GRRM is the Bastard of Bolton (or the entire series).

There's a twitter account @redweddingtears that is full of RTs of that stuff.

My favourite was some chick said something like she was pissed at HBO, wanted revenge for the Starks, and considered taking matters into her own hands...

This is funny, since the Freys and Lannisters get theirs in the end...

I was making fun of the "bedding ceremony" because George RR Martin totally invented it out of thin air I imagine.

There was something like this in French Canadian families up to the late 1800s. People would party downstairs and wait to hear the young couple consumating the marriage upstairs. Because until consumated, the marriage was not final (could be annuled more easily).

Well, I guess that's it for GOT. Everyone is going to either boycott the show or kill themselves over it.

Does George RR Martin have police protection?

This is funny, since the Freys and Lannisters get theirs in the end...

Freys gets theirs? Are you a beta-reader for volume six?

 

[randomrogue]

There are a handful of chapters out from the next book but I haven't read them yet.

so sad that HBO spent $60+ million for just a few minutes of memorable television this season.

60 million was cheap for those few minutes.
