Game of Thrones

[nfreeman]

Just one thing on that list I can't agree with. Tywin Lannister is a badass. He has a song about him killing ppl and he is still alive. Terry Pegula is not Tywin Lannister...

 

You're right -- that one was a stretch. I'm wide open for suggestions on Tywin.

If our new GM is a ruthless guy who own ppl in trades but also sets the market... that would be about all I could think of.

So Patty is taking his time on the GM search because he is waiting for permission to interview Tywin Lannister.

 

I like.

I'd hire Tywin as GM... that guy get's sh!t done.

 

 

I mean come on, his father's bannermen were being disrespectful and his father was like well I better not upset them. So for years the Lannisters were not feared because Twin's father let his bannermen disrespect him. Tywin comes of age and is basically in charge and says to these guys, you can fall in line now or else. They laugh at him and treat him like his father... So what does Tywin do? He kills them. Of course not just them but their entire family. Cousins, Children, anyone who could lay a claim to their lands is killed and their castles are raised to the ground... Tywin is a scary guy. Of course and this is the spoiler part, he underestimates 1 person he shouldn't and well Tyrion is pretty badass himself now isn't he?

Shanahan would think twice about suspending Sabres, let me tell you.

[LGR4GM]

SPOILERS! If you haven't made it to book 3 or through season 3. However I imagine this is how Tywin would treat Shanahan.

Charles Dance is perfection in that role.

And next season we may find out if Tywin really does sh-t gold.

You know nothing Foligno.

 

Vanek strikes me as more of a Stannis or Roose.

 

The fan-base is Reek.

[TrueBlueGED]

You're right -- that one was a stretch. I'm wide open for suggestions on Tywin.

 

I'm with the others, there is no Tywin right now. And perhaps therein lies the problem...

[inkman]

Can Foligno be anyone other than Daenerys?

 

 

 

Man I can't wait for her...er...that show to return.

[josie]

The fan-base is Reek.

 

Was Darcy Ramsay Bolton then?

 

ehuheuguh I can hardly read those chapters. Halfway through book 5 and dreading the next time I see anything about the matter.

[nfreeman]

You're with the Others? Well, that would explain a lot...

 

Can Foligno be anyone other than Daenerys?

 

I was feeling pretty good about Foligno as Jon Snow -- son of a great leader, goes off to the frozen North, gets into some scraps, finds himself in a hot tub with a cutie, etc.

 

And I also liked PLF as Danerys -- the good-looking leader returning from exile with an army to clean house.

 

Come to think of it, Nolan should've been Ser Jorah.

[TrueBlueGED]

You're with the Others? Well, that would explain a lot...

 

Ha! Well played, sir.

 

I do find the Darcy as Ramsay and fans as Reek compelling in the grand scheme, but I just don't see Darcy as doing it to us on purpose.

Point taken, I was taking the basic approach, everybody wants to ###### them.

Now that is just filthy.

[LGR4GM]

I just finished Book 5... holy crap.

[inkman]

Now that is just filthy.

You know who your talking to? :flirt:

[nfreeman]

Winter is coming.

[drnkirishone]

Winter is coming.

the night is dark and full of terrors

[LastPommerFan]

It's like watching a replay of a game from 2007.

 

I know what's going to happen, but it's still exciting.

[qwksndmonster]

Prince Oberyn was cool, like really cool. I wish TV shows would stop introducing characters with sex scenes, though. If knowing a character's sexual preferences actually tells us anything about them, go for it. Otherwise, think of something else. House of Cards has done this, too.

 

Arya and the Hound bro-ing out was really sweet. Couple a bad ass mofos.

 

Sansa is much nicer to Tyrion in the show than she ever was in the books (more an observation of season 3 episodes 8-10 than this episode).

 

The direction they've been going with Shae since the end of season 2 is absolutely brutal. She's easily my least favorite character.

 

And what else can you say about the Joff? :wub: :wub: :wub:

oooo Arya is going to be a delight to see on screen from here on out. That little actress nailed her scene tonight

[TrueBlueGED]

I thought the Oberyn intro was awesome; fit the character perfectly. I also find myself enjoying Arya's scenes more than I did her chapters in the book. I like her character, but never particularly loved the chapters for whatever reason.

 

As far as Sansa goes, I'm glad she's miserable. Stupid child contributed to a lot of this--I really hate her as a character. I know she's supposed to be a sympathetic figure, but it just doesn't work for me. She's probably my least favorite behind Sam.

 

I think Jaime's actor is nailing it. Great stuff and love the character.

 

Lastly: the previews for next week made me giddy. Giddy.

I'm enjoying Arya's chapters much less in the fourth book (which I'm in the middle of right now). There's one or two Arya chapters in the second book that are among my favorites.

 

Both Catelyn and Sansa needed so much more to do. I understand that the setting needs emotional grounding, but giving 2 characters the role of "feels very sad and their life is sad" and nothing else is just terrible. That said, I thought Sansa's actress did a good job in this episode.
