felt it was farfetched but i am happy if they want to have unfeasibly good assassin. it's not the wire... and even that had omar and that brother mouzone cartoon.

no, i like it (now i see what i missed) and find it fun but the point stands you've probably got to be a little tighter with zingy "farfetched" once you've now let actual smokebaby type magic out the box
plus he has a sassy demeanour and had all that blarney about his "red god" or whatever last episode, seems like magical signifiers to me

martin definitely does some things other fantasy paperback dudes don't do, and does some things better but sometimes i feel like ppl really seriously want like aaron sorkin's "studio dragonpants on the sunset ruins of winterfell" and are basically complaining that a heavy metal album has loud guitars and guitar solos

I could go for more Downton Abbey crossovers. The first thing I thought of with the ginger wildlin was "oh, that's what the maid with the typewriter ended up doing"

Really loved this one. I'm always surprised at how much I enjoy watching these characters talk to each other. I like the way backstory informs the present.
Also it was kind of perfect that I was really getting fed up with the Harrenhal business because that castle looks like a shithole, why are important people interested, etc...and then Tywin nicely explains it all. Still not sure about Jon Snow and 'er from Downton. I think Jon Snow is kind of shit though - an idiot, really, but hopefully the 'journey' will be interesting.

Was it upsetting? Surely it's not Bronn/his brother nobody cares about. It feels quite obvious that it was those two kids on that farm.

Maester Luwin's howl as the end there just killed me too.

good scenes with cat and jamie and cersei and sansa. i guess the writers finally found a couple parts of the book they thought worth throwing in. winterfell scenes also strong. alfie is a pretty terrible actor but it kind of works because theon is pretty terrible at what he does too. although still very enjoyable in its own right, that was surely one too many tywin-arya scenes now. just reinforces the feeling that nothing is actually happening. they opened the coin purse for that shot of harrenhal tho, very cool. way too much jon and ygritte wandering. could've achieved the same "character development" with just one scene between them on top of last episode's. not sure what the hell they are doing with that part of the story either. altogether too much screen time for robb's nurse, their relationship another thing that would've been better served if handled more sparingly. qarth continues to baffle. very bored of hearing the same characters repeat themselves for the fourth episode straight. glad they decided to kill everybody for some reason.
2 episodes left i think? should be a barnstorming finish to a somewhat meandering season.
― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 14 May 2012 14:21 (twelve years ago) link
should be 3 more left, there's 10 total
― ciderpress, Monday, 14 May 2012 14:28 (twelve years ago) link
agree that it's been treading water for several episodes. arya & tywin talk, jon wanders the wastes, and repeat. kingslayer finally escaping only to wind up in what looks like the same cage only moments later did not help.

agree. he does a damn good job of modulating subtly between related expressions: "what do i do?"/"i have no choice but to do this"/"oh god, i'm really doing this?"
― The term or title antichrist, in Christian theology, refers to (contenderizer), Monday, 14 May 2012 16:35 (twelve years ago) link
when I read that bit in the book, I bawled!
Yeah Harrenhal was burned by Aegon's dragons & is supposedly cursed isn't it?
I really love Maester Luwin. Just as I imagined him.
multiple xps: it's been very meandering yeah, but necessarily so as they have to cram a load of stuff into ten episodes, wrangle with the timelines and do a lot of setting up of stuff for the next few seasons, all the while ensuring that characters who didn't really get a lot of time in the book (ie Robb) get their airtime. I've been pleased for the most part.
