Margery put the cup on the table in front of the QOT

8 because of Arya

I should add me among them

It's amazing how such a large contingent of book readers hate Uncat but still can't wait to see it

Bad Ass Arya. Hell yeah

I don't think it's common knowledge. Sam picked it up reading

I gave it a seven. I don't know how else they could have had Theon go from a prince to a disgusting creature like Reek, without showing us the torture. Television is a visual medium, Theon can't just give us an aside in future seasons explaining what happened to him, they would have had to use flashbacks, and that wouldn't work either. I am hoping it is over, now that he has lost some fingers and that ... other thing.

So did Rickon really just run off?

Definate 10. The Dracarys scene was as badass as the books

Gave it a 9 would have done a 10 except for the Cat scene.

And the whole cousin/kinslayer thing is being way overplayed. He is just a lannister of Lannisport, not of the rock. If Jamie is a Kinslayer for killing him, then Robb Stark was a kinslayer in the books for killing Karstark. I think the kinslayer riff is for more immediate family.

Does anyone have a theory as to what the gate was for. We know from the books that the shadow could not get through to storms end because of socery built into the walls, so Davos had to get Mel under the castle. Here Renley was in a tent, that didn't seem that close to the sea. Did they film it anticipating a storms end scene later, or just do it because it looks and sounds so cool.

Good point, but they needed to mention it for the non readers

Tyrion would have picked up on that, but most non readers wouldn't

I like Dagmar

What was the reason for the gate. I mean I know what it was for in the books, but why here

Theory about Ros crying. Robert visited Winterfell. We know what a horndog he is. He visited the winter village brothel. He liked Ros, visited her in LF brothel. Everyones commented on how heavy Ros looks. Maybe Gendry (and Edric) aren't the only bastards left.

I've got a question. The others haven't been seen for 8,000 years, yet Craster is giving his sons to them and has presumbly been doing so for years. Were they just waiting till they had enough of Craster's sons to create an army? The rangers have been visiting Craster for years but only now the others are going after everyone.

Oh loved the Sam and Jacqen casting too, and biter look great.

I think Asha/Yara was perfectly cast. Read some people on other sites saying she wasn't beautiful enough. To me she was perfect, hot but with a Tomboy kind of imperfect look. Real athletic looking. The ship captains daughter was perfect too. Meh looking (but not chubby enough) and dumb as a box of rocks. The Roz scene could go. I defended the role, but now don't see the point. Bronn as city watch commander makes sense, no reason for another character there. Also could live without having to show the Mel/Stan sex scene, but I guess that is to explain the shadow killing of Renly in the next ep or two. I'm also not a big complainer about deviating from the book, but I wonder how they are going to write the next episode after Craster knocks out Jon. I can't see the watch leaving after Craster brained him.
