  1. You're right, it works now. I swear it didn't when I tried earlier. Goddamn computers.
  2. 8/10 Good episode but nothing that really wowed me. Although the scenes at KL were awesome as usual.
  3. Gleeson was trying to act intimidated and insecure, but it was overdone to the point of ridiculousness, which leads me to believe he sucks at it - or he was told to overdo it because otherwise the audience won't get what's going on. Either way, the scene could have been so much more.
  4. This. And even the Joff/Tywin scene was awful. Joff's actor can be very good at times, but this was just terrible acting. Dance looked annoyed by having to put up with such an amateurish display rather than what his role demanded.
  5. Weakest episode this season. 5/10 The only scene that did something for me was Tyrion with Cercei. Everything else was overacted, too melodramatic, or plain boring.
  6. Solid 9 -flaming sword fight was very impressive (too bad they didn't use the Hound's badass quote though) -Kingslayer's confession was great; I'm starting to like Jamie's character more and more -Lord Tywin lastly totally owned the episode (again) "you will marry and breed!"
  7. Bloody awesome episode, maybe the best one to date, so full 10/10 from me. I've nothing to complain about. No meaningless or boring filler. The final scene with Daenerys gave me goosebumps. I've complained a lot about her acting before, but she gave a great performance this time around.
  8. Good episode overall. Loved some scenes, disliked some others, hated the credits. the good: -Dany vs. Master Karazek - gotta love that nasty bald berk; I'm saddened that his untimely end is likely coming in the next episode. He should get his own shows or something where he gets to ridicule Dany for an hour straight. The translator was great as well. Dany's actress wasn't as wooden as usual this time around either, it seemed to me. -Small Council meeting chair hilarity. I actually laughed out loud at Tyrion. Great acting all around. -Aria-Hot Pie-Gantry farewell. Very touching scene. The misshapen wolf was cute. -Brianne/Jamie dynamic. It seems he's taken a liking to her after all. Nice character development for Jamie over time, and more of that surely to come now that he's lost his main asset. The scream in the final scene wasn't very convincing though. the bad: -Pointless hooker scene again. Who's still wowed by T&A on TV? The Joffrey BDSM scene at least served a purpose, but this? Ditto poor Podrick. -Talisa or whatshername. I don't care that she wasn't in the book, I just don't like the actress. -Stannis played for a fool by Melisandre. Breaks my heart. He deserves better. -Edmure being such a jerk-off. Was that in-line with the novel? He seemed quite capable to me in CoK, certainly not the laughing stock of Riverrun. the ugly: -Credits country music - totally killed the ending for me. Why not play Gangnam style instead, I'm sure that'd provoke even more WTF reactions if that was the intent.
  9. It baffles how anyone could not love the Joff/Marge scene. Gay-bashing? Aren't you reading too much into it? The only point in that was to show that Margaery knows exactly what buttons to press to manipulate Joffrey.
  10. He quite obviously was - but why would that be ridiculous?
  11. I'm getting increasingly annoyed by the fact that we only get a brief glimpse of each location/story arc per episode, and then it's a whole week's wait for the next bit. I should just stop watching now and get the whole season on DVD. Anyway, a couple highlights were Margery's grandma (more of her please!) and of course Margery herself. The scene with Joffrey was excellent. Brotherhood was handled nicely. Perfect timing for the Hound to show up. On the other hand, there were many awkward scenes. Shae/Tyrion, Shae/Sansa, Catelyn/Whatshername, Ygritte...
  12. Just like pretty much all the previous episodes. ;)
  13. Stannis' actor is pure awesomeness with or without facial hair; too bad he only got so little screen time and almost no dialogue this episode.
  14. How do we know that? I thought the books never explain what that phrase means.
  15. Can't do that. They have a T&A quota to fill every season and there was no other opportunity in this episode.
  16. I gave it 7/10. Good episode but not great. Outstanding performance from the Lannister cast (Tywin, Cersei, Tyrion). Bronn badass as always. Seriously, is there anyone who doesn't love Bronn? Margery is shaping up to be a major contender in the GoT at King's Landing. Slave trader and his translator were hilarious. Especially considering that there was actually no need for a translator. :D Davos is also a personal favorite; glad he's not dead (yet) after all. And yay for Barristan making a return. The scenes beyond the wall were a let-down, however. A single zombie left from the entire host we saw at the end of the last season? From the looks of it the Nightwatch band annihilated them all and saved Sam so what's the big deal? Should have been handled better. Rome didn't show battle scenes either but still managed to make it clear what happened. Speaking of Rome - CiarĂ¡n Hinds sadly didn't get much screen time; hope he has a chance to shine in the next episodes. Harrenhall scene? Not sure what happened there. Felt very disjointed to me.
