[Poll] How would you rate episode 609?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E09: The Battle of the Bastards
There was a one-minute-tracking-shot at one point with horses crashing into each other and a whole lot of mayhem. I love that kind of stuff, because they didn't have to shoot it that way, it's just much more difficult, but they did it anyway and that's awesome and for that I would've given this episode a 10 regardless of what else had happened.- 543 replies

[Poll] How would you rate episode 610?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E10: The Winds of Winter
This episode was a solid 8. There were a couple of great scenes, but the Sand Snakes are back, and therefor I can't give it a 10. The end of the season would've been a great moment for a montage, and they didn't go for it, so that takes another point away. Arguably though, the entire episode was kind of a montage. We didn't check in with Brienne, and that sucks. She once again didn't really have anything to do the entire season. We also didn't see what Euron is up to. That's why a montage would've been great, you could've shown a quick shot of every major character and where they are, starting with Cersei in the throne room and probably ending with the shot of Dany's fleet.- 320 replies

[Poll] How would you rate episode 609?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E09: The Battle of the Bastards
This show has many problems. All of them are much bigger than people travelling at implausible speeds, which is why I'm able to ignore it compared to the stupid Sand Snakes or the Melisandre/Grey Worm bullshit. Suspension of disbelief went out of the window long ago for me, the dialogue isn't that strong anymore and there are so many scenes that are just completely pointless. So, all in all, I couldn't care less about whether so-and-so travelled a little too fast, that's just nitpicking to me, especially with an episode as awesome as this one on the table.- 543 replies

Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E09: The Battle of the Bastards
I think I've read a theory somewhere, of how Planetos is much smaller on the show, making these long distances feasible. Either way, one shouldn't get hung up on this stuff or it drives you crazy. The battle was fun, I give this a 10 for the 1-minute tracking-shot alone. I thought the cinematography was much better than the shakiness of Hardhome.- 543 replies

[Poll] How would you rate episode 608?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E08: No One
I have no complaints this week, was a solid episode. I'm glad the Hound is finally back, and the Brotherhood. Grey Worm and Missandei are probably the two worst people I can think of to have a conversation with. -
[Poll] How would you rate episode 607?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E07: The Broken Man
I gave it an 8 because the Hound is back and the scenes with him and that other guy were pretty good. Most of the rest I don't even really remember, it was kind of forgettable. Poor Arya, though:( Book spoilers- 176 replies

[Poll] How would you rate episode 605?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E05: The Door
This episode was kind of lack-luster, but the last part took it up to a 10 for me. I was completely stunned by the time it was over. Poor Walder. -
[Poll] How would you rate episode 604?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E04: Book of the Stranger
I thought this episode was kind of lame. -
This is a 10 for the following reasons: 1. Wun Wun was wonderful. 2. A + J = T 3. Jaime's douchiness is back. I really missed him the last two seasons. 4. Ramsay reached a new level of evilness. 5. Bran is back. 6. Balon is finally dead. 7. And last but not least: We can finally lay the stupid "Is Jon dead?"-discussions to rest.

[No Spoilers] EP408 Discussion
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E08: The Mountain and the Viper
I was a little annoyed with that as well on my last rewatch, especially since Braavos has only one scene the entire season, yet for the second half it's always in there.- 37 replies

poll How would you rate episode 601?
Criston of House Shapper replied to Ran's topic in E01: The Red Woman
Gave it a 7, it was definitely better than anything we saw last year. The Sandsnake-stuff was awfull, as usual. They killed the wrong characters from that storyline.- 298 replies

The ASOIAF wiki thread
Criston of House Shapper replied to Onion Knight's topic in Wiki of Ice and Fire
I just found something on Ossifer Plumm's page: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Ossifer_Plumm In the info box it says that he married "An unknown Princess of House Targaryen", but we know it is Elaena Targaryen, as it is written in the article itself. -
