Cersei the Great Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 They got the Mountain right on the first try. He was the best Mt out of the three. Just a shame he couldn't stick around. This guy's okay. He's got nothing on the first dude. I liked the first guy as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan_Snow Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Am I the only one that thinks Sansa and Petyr will be convincing the Vale lords that crazy Lysa just killed herself next episode? Seems to me like that's where its headed since Mariliion wasn't there. Edited May 19, 2014 by Juan_Snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cersei the Great Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 they had the perfect chance for tyrion to talk about tysha, but they didnt have him bring her up. "i sould have never believed that a whore could love me." he should have said. , "i should have learned my lesson the first time" I thought Tysha would be brought up too. I guess (hope) they will do it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Stark Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 My guess is they'll pretend she slipped. Seems clean and simple. I guess that would be a nitpick that doesn't matter, but the Vale lords would never stand for Lysa "fell" out of the moon door right after LF married her and a young hottie showed up as LF's "niece".

~DarkHorse~ Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Sansa says in the episode 8 promo "Lord Baelish has told many lies... I must tell the truth." *Littlefinger then evil grins* I think LF will say Lysa slipped but he gets Sansa to reveal she committed suicide, only he was too ashamed to tell the truth.

White Harbors Wrath Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Yeah, it's a classic HBO trailer Red Herring. Mastered on the Sopranos and skillfully used again and again everywhere since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Maiden Islands Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 HBO Canada will apparently not take a break and show episode 8 next week.If that's true, it's going to be the most pirated single episode of a TV show history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Selig Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 So why didn't Jaime become Tyrion's champion? It doesn't matter how much he sucks as a fighter now, neither Tywin nor Cersei would allow him to be killed. They would be forced to choose someone even worse for their champion. It was a good scene between Jaime and Tyrion (NCW continues to be absolutely amazing in every single scene this season), but this bugged me.

There's going to be a lot of nitpicking around the Vale Lords; Sansa's hair is quite red in the promo. I guess the Unsullied won't think about that/care :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boojam Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 It must have been odd for Andy Beckwith ( Rorge ) to have been told you are in season 4 , but only for 15 seconds! IMDB lists Gerard Jordan (Biter) as being in this episode, but I don't think that was him! If it was ... 5 seconds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usurper's Dog Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 So who can explain our introduction to the new Mountain last night - was he just massacring peasants for fun? Obviously they want us to recall his brutality, but one establishing line about WTF was going on would have gone a long way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bothered me in the books, every knight in the Vale , and some knight's wives are all as stupid as a block of rock? I thought Geroge slipped up there. This one is going to be even more mysterious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Fevre Dream Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I have mixed feelings on the sealing of the Wall because it's diametrically opposed to Jon's later stance as well, but it does make a certain amount of sense at the moment? The tunnel is the one point where Mance's army can breach the Wall right now and if it's sealed, then Castle Black can hold back the attack for significantly longer. It's an appropriate solution for this situation where it's not a feasible solution for the situation after Mance's forces are beaten and scattered. New day and new browser, so I can finally reply quote on any computer. :cool4: I can see the point of having Jon learn that sealing the Wall is not a good idea, and eventually, he will be the one refusing to seal the gate. It just worries me twofold, that Grenn is the reason for it, and I do fear that D&D just DO stuff for the sake of doing it.......without great reasons, all the time. It would be nice to see Jon learn something (which he should already have learned from Ned, but okay, learn at the Wall), but I do fear it's more about Grenn's fate. I do hope I'm wrong on that count. I guess I'm still not over a lot of the S2 mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 If that's true, it's going to be the most pirated single episode of a TV show history It's not true. The HBO Canada schedule shows episode 8 airing June 1st. They will be airing The Normal Heart next Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Fevre Dream Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Re: The Wall.. that's exactly what I was thinking -- how will they have him completely flip? And why? And I second your thoughts on Grenn... ugh. And you know, I don't mind some of their created scenes -- some are awesome (!) but when you change excellent writing for something that is less-than... I don't get it, and don't respect it. Yeah, I do worry on the Grenn issue. I hope I'm wrong, I was pleasantly surprised by lots of scenes that were basically straight from the book this week. I don't mind newly created material or rewritten scenes, they've done good on both types, but please......have a point to it and ya know, wouldn't hurt if the rewrite was as good or better. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
