Can't expect bots to get these things right. They're getting smarter though, it's frightening.

well, now that it aint gonna happen I really thought the story would have the kingslayer put in the position of killing his own son as his tyranny became overwhelming even for him
meanwhile the dragonlady and wildlings(?) and ice monsters are about to invade
btw, that death scene was some fine acting...or the make up crew did a good job

I imagine much of that was done post production with CG. It was very well done though. My hat is off to them.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

What would an actual MD know about that?
Technically speaking... We don't know exactly how "The Strangler" works so wouldn't it be at least possible? "Widow's Blood" is another interesting one.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

I really do have to give props to the actor. Granted he was playing a real douche of a character, but he really played it up and made him even more hateful.
Great casting, and good acting.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple
RIP Tony Bogey & Baron O

He really was a magnificent bastard. He really got to play it up in that episode, with his little twirl in front of the pie and kicking the goblet out of Tyrion's reach and his sadistic little play with the dwarf kings."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine
"The subject of onanism is inexhaustable." --Sigmund Freud

The face may swell a bit and turn a bit dark red but it's not going to turn sky blue. Deoxygenated blood is dark red with a touch of blue but not sky blue. Likewise the facial veins are not going to bulge out like they were on Jeoffrey's face. Furthermore inorder to produce the facial plethora effect you'd have to apply external pressure to the neck, there's no way that "The Strangler" could do that. I suppose that it could induce congestive heart failure, but that would take a while to produce facial edema and would not be experienced as choking. What "The Strangler" seemed to be doing was inducing laryngospasm, closing off inlet to the lungs. People who strangle on food, i.e., have a "cafe coronary", will become cyanotic, but not the color of blue that Jeoffrey turned.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.
