The line just popped into my head when I was talking about failed communication (the captain gave an oscar winning, or at least oscar nominated performance, methinks, and that line is used (out of context) when people get confused or someone misunderstands someone else). If you do want to know, Paul Newman wins in the end, so I guess there is that - many talk of his paralells to Christ as his pain leads to redemption. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_Hand_Luke Suffice it to say Wex' minor role does not paralell Cool Hand Luke in any way, nor did I mean to imply same.

Stannis, because he supports Jon Snow and I don't like Jon. Podrick, snotty kid. Dolorous Edd, he's a dull dude. The Green Grace, because it's time for the Harpy to die and for slavery to end. Nymeria Hodor Mellisandre, because she's a fraud. Tormund, same reason as Stannis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I better stay on topic - this is a tough crowd! I drop a quote that is used often to represent poor communication with no real reference to the film (except the guys accent), and WHAM! I would love to talk about the comparisons to Christ and Jon though, you know, those "brought back to life by gods" fellows (in a different thread).

There's a very good thread on that, kinda old though... I'll try to find a link for you. It's a very intersting read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurane Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Walder Frey - Low hanging fruit Lothar Frey - ^ The Mad Mouse Selyse Florent - Preferably in a was in which Stannis doesn't lose Patchface - Because I don't want to see a world in which he wins. Victarion Greyjoy - Don't get me wrong, Victarion is awesome and one of the highlights of the later books. He is pretty evil though and his ambitions seem to be getting way larger than the Salt throne. I hope that he makes it a long way throughout the series rather than being killed off in Slaver's bay.

I forgot about Taena Merryweather, Edwyn Frey, most of the Freys, and Harry the Heir. Qyburn too, if he counts as a minor character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
