Next Wednesday or Friday. 

Hopefully you can see it in a sold out theater. It's quite the experience.

Ah that fills me with hope  though realistically I’ll be happy if I walk out of the theatre not hating it  

when are you seeing it?

Is that sarcastic? 
(I haven’t watched it yet but I’m very much on board of the hype train and deep in Barbie nostalgia. I desperately want it to be not terrible)

not sarcastic at all.

it's great. in gerwig & baumbach i trust always.

damn that barbie movie is so good

TTTNE, TTTNE, and TTTNE,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day

can't believe it's almost been a year since the war started. 

damn fungus gnats!

ugh Christmas again. 

fungus gnats returned in my epipremnum and phlebodium. previous post may be hexed. hopefully my garlic-smelling capsules will help me combat this evil that has invaded my home once again.

Uhhhh, ant infestations are terrible. I very much sympathise. I have some ants in my flat too. At some point, I suppose I accepted them as roommates?

fungus gnats aint a joke either. after months of battle i finally claimed victory a few weeks ago. the silverfish front i gave up on years ago. we coexist peacefully now.

Loved it, a solid 9.

Could Dany show up with drogon and 20,000 or so dothraki? Hmmm.

Or will she just miss the battle altogether?

I've never liked Victorian or any Iron born for that matter, I hope drogon takes a bite out of him! Although that's kind of unrealistic.

I expect Dany to show up like that, à la Tywin at the Battle of the Blackwater.

I love Barristan. I fucking love him.

Thanks!

Does anyone know how I can get a .gif file as an avatar? I tried with Gravatar, but it doesn't work, neither does uploading from my computer.

I'd be really thankful for some help. :)

I don't know, but maybe you can send Liar or eddard of the house stark a PM. They both have .gifs.

Is it actually possible to upload a picture from one's computer now? I know this was not an option some time ago, but now I have seen it said that it also works. Does it? I do not want to go trying anything before I get a confirmation from somebody who knows for sure, I do not want to be left without an avatar after unsuccessful trying.

Also, is the possibility to link a picture from URL (I use imageshack) coming back any time?

I uploaded my current one from my computer, so yeah, it works (it's been a while since I did that, tho', might've been changed...).

I knew it! I said it was either way Sword or Jaime. Fuck yeah! My first good prediction.

Could someone set up a pre-airing discussion thread for Valar Morghulis, can't be arsed to do it myself right now.

Legendary. Magnificent. Epic. Wonderful. Anything else?

Mixed feelings: I fucking loved the episode, but looking at the books it makes me sad. Looks like I'm a semi-book purist.

EDIT: The final scene was sublime. 'What have you done?! Noooooo!'

Does there exist any Dunk & Egg discussion thread on these forums?

Alfie Allen, halle-fucking-luja. He was great! Isaac and Luwin (forgot the actor's name) were wonderful aswell. The Winterfell scene was better than expected, and the look on Theon's face after Rodriks decapitation was worth gold.

'Gods help you, Theon Greyjoy. Now you are truly lost.'

The Riot was intense, especially Sophie Turner during the 'rape'. Fantastic.

Am I the only one thinking the show is damn faithful to the books ?

All the changes there were were merely tiny changes, some little stuff modified.

But the core is still there, the main story lines are still there, no change has been really important so far, only tiny details were modified but this is still the exact same story as in the books.

People like to be negative about everything.

But...that's all wrong. She's supposed to go with his brother.

I think Meera and Jojen, or only one of them, will meet with Bran, Summer and Hodor after the Sack of Winterfell (season 3).

My crackpot theory for a book-to-TV change: Jaquen is going to kill Tywin.

That's not going to happen. I'm sure of that. They won't kill of such a brilliant character, played by such a brilliant actor when it's not necessary. His end will come soon, by the hands of his son.

10. Only for Natalie Dormer's tities.
