I have a memory of recommending Seasons of Mists to you; it's not something I'd do now but it was one of my best reads (but I won't be going back to it anytime soon).

Dealing with the reality of the next 4 years
Knight of Ashes replied to fionwe1987's topic in General Chatter
A long-standing friendship of mine ended when I nobly declared (actually, I did it passive aggressively) that I couldn't be friends anymore with someone who supports a rapist and a racist, among other things. According to her, He Who Must Not Be Named was neither of those things, which gave me the excuse not to discuss anything further because when it comes to THAT guy, her universe is just so far, far away from mine. But I did end up hurting her and maybe her family as well (who was always good to me). -

I had much higher hopes for Thor L&T. -
Watch, Watched, Watching: The Emperors' New Thread
Knight of Ashes replied to Heartofice's topic in Entertainment
Despite its rep, I watched Madame Web 'cause I figured no comic-book film can make me dislike it as much as I dislike Thor: Love &Thunder..... ...and I was right. -

https://comicsarcheology.com/index.php/2023/10/12/keith-giffen-1952-2023/ How he broke into comics is almost as funny as his writing. There was a small part of me that was hoping that he would reunite with Tom and Mary Bierbaum on LSH.

I wouldn't mind a live-action Kate Bishop vs Madame Masque

Very belatedly reading Hawkeye: The Saga of Barton and Bishop by Matt Fraction and David Aja. So this is where the Tracksuit Mafia came from? And Pizza Dog? While I grew to appreciate MCU Clint Barton more because of the tv series, I'm sure he might have been more memorable in the Avengers movies if he'd been portrayed as a ne'er-do-well who cares like he was in Fraction's graphic novel.

I dunno if anybody here has read or heard about Abraham Reisman's bio of Stan Lee True Believer but if anyone has and is feeling disillusioned here's Roy Thomas's pushback. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/roy-thomas-former-marvel-editor-pushes-back-on-new-stan-lee-biography-guest-column

I'm sorry but when I read that, I suddenly thought of Robert Mueller.

Chilly reunions are Bran's specialty. I expect he'll give Jaime the "I wouldn't be what I am today if it weren't for you" speech.

[Poll] How would you rate episode 707?
Knight of Ashes replied to Ran's topic in E07: The Dragon and the Wolf
They do this every time. They have me exasperated with the show for majority of the season, then they blow me away (and not just with spectacle). 10.- 343 replies

[Poll] How would you rate episode 706?
Knight of Ashes replied to Ran's topic in E06: Beyond the Wall
5. One or two awesome scenes and entertaining dialogue among the seven who went beyond the Wall does not a great penultimate episode make.- 261 replies

Wrong thread.

I just came to the somewhat belated realization that wights are GoT's equivalent of Orcs - in as much as they're these guys that one can enjoy watching being fried without conflict , guilt ,or thought. Which is one more reason for me to rate this below "Spoils of War". But hey, ice dragon!

Once, I would have thought Jon unneccesarily lingering to fight off wights was plot induced stupidity but after the Battle of the Bastards, and this, I now really think he's something of a moron, and Sansa really should be the one to rule the North. At least, she can do more than one facial expression.

One of the worst eps in the series; so many opportunities blown by going at a breakneck speed w/ long-awaited reunions , and then slows down for Littlefinger's scheming which I doubt anyone cares about anymore.

Aw crap, Dickon's dead I was hoping he'd make it through to the end so he could star with Theon in one of the spin-off shows and they'd call it Dick-on and Dick-off. But seriously folks, all that fan theorizing as to how Jaime could survive drowning was far more interesting than that lazy way the show chose to go with.

Apparently, what Tyrion said first when Jaime seemed frozen was "Flee you idiot" (yeah, he recognized him) and when Jaime charged at Dany, it was "You fucking idiot."
