[BOOK SPOILERS] Nitpick Without Repercussion #2


Lady Fevre Dream

Recommended Posts

I agree. At least Spartacus delivered what it promised. For what it was, it was good.

And the T&A filler, let's see... Gilly Gone Wild. Jaime Does Dorne. Sansa leads Littlefinger around by the dick with her cleavage. Margaery finally catches on and poisons Ser Pounce, the cockblocker. Mel finds out Jon Snow really knows something (he grieves for Ygritte about as long as Loras grieved for Renly, a week?) Meanwhile, Dany and Daario, who are supposed to be fucking like rabbits, will have one scene that fades to black.

LOL It looks so promising when you put it like that. :lmao:

I think I must have missed the burping whores scene, I am afraid to ask what that was about.

That was the start of the............The Wildings sack Mole's Town. That creepy whore in the brothel...started out a-burpin a tune, some of the patrons trying to guess it. It was so stupid, not just for the actual fact of the scene, but it also pointed out how the show only does have two songs, LOL

Accident or no, its what killed Jojen, too. After being pushed he hilariously sat there while a skeleton stabbed him repeatedly.

I know, it's like the poor actor playing Jojen was doing all he could to hold still so the skeleton could actually stab him. What a mess, LOL

^In the Mountain and the Viper the episode begins at Mole's Town where a whore is drinking with Night's Watch men and they play a game that consists of trying to guess what song she is burping. The answer: the Bear and the Maiden Fair.

I actually foolishly hoped that the scene would give us some of The Dornishman's Wife. Silly me.

I don't think it will backfire any time soon.The show is super successful and the non-readers absolutely love it and tend to get really annoyed by any type of criticism toward it. What they as viewers don't understand is that, if D&D followed the book a bit more closely and made meaningful changes that added depth to the show (e.g. S1 - Cercei/Robert dialog) instead of...burping whores and beetle talks,the viewers would have gotten such a better show.

Exactly, it was good for what it was.On the other hand ASOIAF is so much more than what GOT is showing it to be.So much potential lost.

For the moment yes, it is that way.

However AFFC & ADWD are exceptionally hard books to adapt, even if D&D weren't talentless hacks and hadn't butchered every character already.

Let's see how long the non-readers will love the show when it's practically all fillers invented by D&D. They are pretty bad at it.

Exactly. I felt the scene was making fun of the show. And then we have a small penis joke... I mean I know this kind of juvenile, gross humor is kind of expected but the scene was just unnecessary. It provided no good comic relief, didn't enrich the world (on the contrary, they just mentioned the two songs they included in the show) nor insight to characters. I suspect the viewers were supposed to be grossed out out by the scene but didn't they have enough unpleasant moments in this episode to show us?

I wouldn't be surprised if the show thought it was all a cute idea. That's the problem anymore, they think their ideas are just the height of wisdom or hilarity, depending, not realizing they do kind of get those things backwards, LOL

Thanks for filling me in on the burping scene, sounds terrible. I think I only saw half of that episode. I turned it off after Maleficent Sansa, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. So I missed the beetles, too.

I could actually go for scruffy and dirty Jaime Does Dorne.

We could think of a lot of these. Sandor gets sexual healing from a traveling nurse (one of Talisa's buddies). Gendry finally learns how to complete a certain task, with the help of the little mermaid.

Jaqen, just show the bathhouse scene. What are the odds that will happen in season 5? 1 in a million, I reckon. Something we want to see, nope. Burping and beetles, yep.

You are always welcome. :cheers:

Don't get me excited, Dirty Jaime Does Dorne almost sounds fun, too.

I say we volunteer as extras in the tub with Jaqen, I could use a European vacation. :devil:

Fixed. Because that's how Dorne will be treated in this season. Porne, the city of Sexposition.

Where does that leave my European vaca? :lmao:

You do know, I totally fear you are right, but am just in a goofy mood. Jaime, Jaqen and Porne, ya know what I'm sayin'? :devil:

Maybe Jaqen will get to finally take his bath. One can only hope.

I can only imagine what kind of freak show surrealistic baroque insanity we will see for the Dorne brothels. Porn with a capital P.

Didn't the DPornish "mourned" Oberyn's death by sexing? I can totally see that happening in the show.

Considering they couldn't even leave dialogue about THE brothel out of scenes, like ever, with Oberyn does make me think Dorne will probably be the Porno capital of the world. Fuck Yunkaii and their training about the seat of the seven sighs, or whatever it is. I'm still not over the fact that Tyrion had to mention the brothel to Oberyn when he visited him in his cell, and poor Varys, LOL, even he got the offer for a visit to THE brothel from Oberyn. WTF?? Honestly, WTF??

Still offering to help scrub Tom's Jaqen down though, I'll pay airfare myself, and everything.

Did they? I don't remember, but I lost interest in all things Dorne once the Red Viper got killed and then when Doran's no plot/plot was revealed, I doubly lost interest.

But, Show Dorne, might as well, since Show Oberyn has sex orgies non stop, no reason why a TV Dorne wake wouldn't be full of frenzied sex and random naked people eating grapes.

Yeah, one of the Sand Snakes mentions it, saying all the whores are coupling with everyone, refusing to take coin. Lady Nym, it must have been, in her first encounter that we see with Doran. You know this shit is right up D&D's alley.

Oh boy oh boy oh boy. They will never be able to pass that up. What do you bet the first thing we see in Dorne is a brothel?
