A Game of Thrones - TV Show Discussion Thread

[Robert]

Besides, let's keep things in perspective. If there wasn't a HBO series about it, where would the scene rate it terms of all time literary scenes. Probably not that high.

Game of Thrones was named the #2 fantasy book of the 20th century. #1 obviously was Lord of the Rings.
Feast for Crows was named the #5 fantasy book of the 21th century

um... if you read the third book, you read that scene. All of those were from the same book.

[Tuberski]

For real?

Wow. I am legitimately shocked by that. That scene stuck with me hard.

I haven't read it. Dammit.

ACK!

[Tuberski]

I must have remember some of it in my subconscious, I knew what was going to happen.

ACK!

[Tuberski]

Your spoiler straightened me out. It's been about 10 years since I read them.

ACK!

[Guynemer]

[Tuberski]

I don't remember that scene... at all.

I thought the red wedding killed Joffrey and kin.

ACK!

You now, Oerdin, if you want the meme "Oerdin is always wrong" to die, you should really, really try to not always be wrong.

Oh, come on, there were a few good Entourage episodes and it didn't turn to **** until later seasons.

[Asher]

Also, DD: the person who wrote that article apparently liked Entourage. His argument is therefore null and void.

He's also a ****ing baby.

Really, one of his objections is the killing of a dog? Really?

[Guynemer]

Go Team Venture!

You know they're doing another T-Shirt of the Week club?

I switched over to the Venture Bros before the promo, if there even was one for the encore.

[Bosh]

All I have to say is

Check out the episode 10 promo...

[DaShi]

One down, two to go.

Dacey Mormont gets axed in the stomach instead of Talisa.

Jeyne Westerling, who was Robb's wife in the books, a) survives b) never gets pregnant c) wasn't even at the wedding in the first place.

They had Talisa get murdered because all the assorted awesome Stark bannermen weren't there to get killed instead.
