As I said, this was the weakest one for me. A couple of big moments that were a little bit of a let down, and then I kept noticing little things that bugged me.
The results of Cersei choosing violence were underwhelming. Funny I can say that given it resulted in a bare-handed decapitation...
Wow! This was the weakest for me. Just shows how subjective judging art/entertainment is.
Yeah I thought so too -- will have to rewatch it. I'm not sure how long she was laid out on Lady Crane's couch for, I'm guessing a day or two -- long time for those candles to be burning. Unless she...
Great points, King.
When the better actors get on there it does highlight what the other actors aren't bringing to the table, doesn't it?
I saw the casting call for Randyll Tarly and it sounded like it was going to be a big part, so I'm guessing we'll at least see a lot more of Faulkner...
I enjoyed this episode, despite it being low on the action scale. They stuck to the storylines and characters I am most interested in and set things up for some upcoming showdowns.
Strangely, when I read the books, I didn't register Riverrun Siege as a major event, but they are hyping it up...
No comments on the visit to Horn Hill?
The internet seemed to love seeing Sam stick it to his mean old dad by stealing his sword. I guess I enjoyed that too but for the most part I'm not into the Sam and Gilly storyline. We'll see if it pays off later.
Off topic -- I binged watched Narcos on...
No kidding Legendary she's wearing the same necklace! It is known ...
Probably the best episode that didn't involve a battle or getting chased out of a hard home by ice zombies IMO (I guess actually it did involve the latter)
Bummed that we are down to just 2 direwolves :(
Sorry, can't help myself, need to elaborate on that Osha scene.
Ok, we know she's extraneous, so she has to go at this stage in the game when we're tying off the loose ends.
She was a big enough character that having her die offscreen would be lame.
So Ramsay has to kill her. And we know...
Agree with you guys, Daario must go.
And yes, Littlefinger's scene walked a fine line and maybe shaded into caricature.
I wish Osha had maybe at least left a scar on Ramsay's face or gouged an eye. Would have given the scene more value. As it was, another notch for serial killer Ramsay...
Well, as I feared Rickon was the gift. I'm not sure what the point is of having yet another character from the original Stark household for Ramsay to torture, after just having Sansa and Theon escape. Perhaps Jon and the Wildlings will keep him too busy to do any flaying.
As far as Essos, if...
I'm surprised. I really liked The City and The City and Embassytown. He's capable of some gorgeous prose. Perdido Street Station was a bit of a sprawl but some good imagery, the Slake Moths are amazing monsters. Haven't read the two you tried to read but maybe he's better at shorter books. The...
I started to read one of his books, it literally began with a little kid crawling around in mud and shit. I powered through to about page 100 but couldn't find like about it. I realize different strokes for different folks but this was not for me.
