final two scenes were amazing sequence to end season w/

i especially loved Jeor's speech to Snow.
Yes, that guy is awesome
the only scene that fell flat, to me, was the one with Little Finger and Varys. what was the point of that? i was half expecting them to start making out!
I thought this was cool and i dig the relationship they're setting up between the two of them. Antagonistic but with a level of mutual respect. The actor who plays Varys has been superb i think. The scene what played weirdly for me was the Grand Maester Pycelle/Ros one.

the dragons were so cute :3
I am so mad that this series has made me want dragons and direwolves as pets when it's never going to happen.

should have had the word "exposition!" flashing at the bottom of the screen imo

the Baelish/Varys and Grand Maester/Roz scenes both kinda sucked - the former was a little funny at least, but felt very redundant. the later was rambling and largely pointless. (I know that was the intention, but it was a waste of valuable finale time.) Would rather have checked in w/ Cersei at some point, esp. given her reaction to Joffrey's order to execute Ned last week.

*the latter
there wasnt any exposition in that scene, was there? it was just a character moment

There was TONS of plot exposition in that scene, awkwardly wedged in around gratutious nudity.

You could get actually get a Direwolf though Nicole, they're played by a breed of dog called the Northern Inuit.

yeah, but it went on waaay too long, plus he's a character we have no reason to care about. xp

tbh i can't even remember that well, my attention wandered, but it ~seemed~ like a way to give the audience some westeros history that they may need to know in the future

He basically just went on about the Mad King didn't he? Who we already knew about.
― Number None, Monday, 20 June 2011 16:07 (twelve years ago) link
exactly. redundant.
― You Post on ILX (Simon H.), Monday, 20 June 2011 16:09 (twelve years ago) link
his rambling was boring and unimportant, which is why ros was bored - the point of the scene was that pycelle's doddering old man pose is just as much of a feint to make himself seem harmless as what varys and littlefinger do
― little dieter wants to FUCK (Princess TamTam), Monday, 20 June 2011 16:10 (twelve years ago) link
Well yeah, but it just didn't need to go on that long.
― Number None, Monday, 20 June 2011 16:12 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, probably. but i didnt think it was checking-my-watch-and-sighing-theatrically long.

i was kinda on the fence about emilia clarke for most of the season, but im pretty sold on her now. she killed it in this ep

thought the littlefinger/varys scene was brilliant, really well written. varys kills it in every scene, the faces he makes. joffrey is such a horrible little cunt. not a huge amount happened this ep but was interesting to hear stannis and renly have taken up against joffrey too. next season tho...wtf, so much shit is hitting the fan all at once, dragons, white walkers, multipronged civil war. it's a veritable smorgasbord of violence!

Sort of an ellipsis compared to the exclamation mark of the previous episode. Didn't much care for the very end -- yeah yeah, she's walking into the fire but we all know that she's not going to burn. Want to see more of Arya threatening fat boys/kicking it with Baratheon bastard, or Pycelle doing more backflips.
Random thoughts:* Lancel? I seriously thought/hoped that Cersei had better taste in relatives.* Strangely, Dany looked more CG than the dragons at the end.* Cat was looking srsly hott.* Actually liked Arya with short hair. Good makeover.* Ned's makeover, not so much.
WHEN IS ARYA GOING TO START EFFING ESS UP??? /rhetorical
