Clariana Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 It really depends on the day of the week, the time of the year, the confluence of the stars and planets... GRR is that awesome, one of my latest faves is the reveal:"The nail on his middle finger had turned as black as jet, he saw,and the grey had crept up almost to the first knuckle. The tip of his ring finger had begun to darken too, and when he touched it with the point of his dagger, he felt nothing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theda Baratheon Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This may have been done before...anyway, title says all. There WILL be spoilers, obviously. Pretty basic: what have been your favourite/the best scenes or moments in all of the aSoIaF books so far?10. "Only Cat." Littlefinger makes Lysa fly. The whole chapter with the hysterical Lysa revealing that basically everything had been LF's plotting...man, that was amazing.9. The Battle of Blackwater. Probably the most action packed sequence in all of the books. I don't know about you guys but I had NO IDEA what Tyrion's chain was for until Davos went "the chain. Gods save us, they've raised the chain." 6. Viserys getting his golden crown.5. Bridge of Dreams. "The current had them in its teeth..." So creepy. The stone men might be as scary the wights, IMO (but less relevant) ..."Mother Rhoyne runs how she will," murmured Yandry. "Seven save us," said Lemore...Definitely great moments. I loved the Bridge of Dreams - I thought it was so frightening/creepy as hell and this is one of the moments I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE ON THE TV SHOW.

Theda Baratheon Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 In no order, but these are the moments that I really, really felt ''WHOAH'' when reading.Bran finding CotF and Bloodraven.Petyr Baelish pushing Lysa out the moon door.Dany running down into the pit and whipping Drogon whilst screaming (I possibly love this even more than the birth of the dragons themselves)Stannis coming to the WallCersei's descent into utter madnessJon ''Edd, Fetch me a block'' and Stannis' nod.The Red WeddingBrienne and JaimeThe Old Bear's death and him talking about Jorah ;_;And for some odd reason I fucking LOVED the Barristan Selmy revealThese are just off the top of my head, I haven't read some of the books in awhile, I'm in Uni and I've left all my books down at home for my younger sister/Mother/Father to read but I don't think any of them actually will so i'm going to reclaim them soon.

captainoftheguards Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I like some of the scenes and sequences in general but I'll go ahead and mention the dialogues that made me love them.-Jaime and Catelyn's conversation at Riverrun. Best dialogue - Jamie: "There are no men like me. There's only me.-'THE KING IN THE NORTH!'-Ned confronting Cersei. Best dialogue - Cersei: "And what of my wrath, Lord Stark?" Also the 'game of thrones' line-'A crown for a king.' Even though Viserys seemed on par with Joffrey when it comes to being a complete dick, I did feel sorry for him in the TV series, when he seemed content as Dany told him Khal Drogo was giving him his crown.-Ser Barristan throwing his sword at Joffrey's feet and marching out.-Ned's dream about the Tower of Joy. The Kingsguards' lines were gold. "Woe to the usurper had we been there." "Aerys would still be king and our false brother would burn in the seven hells." "Our knees don't bend easily." "But not of the Kingsguard. The Kingsguard do not flee."-Jaime showing his Kingsguard who was boss. Best line was that one about Arthur Dayne.-Tyrion slapping Joffrey, both at Winterfell and at the riot of KL.-Jon Snow beheading Janos Slynt-This exchange at Dragonstone between Ser Davos and Stannis when they were discussing about the attack on Claw Isle“It is every man’s duty to remain loyal to his rightful king, even if the lord he serves proves false,” Stannis declared in a tone that brooked no argument.A desperate folly took hold of Davos, a recklessness akin to madness. “As you remained loyal to King Aerys when your brother raised his banners?” he blurted.Brutal honesty. A typical badass line from Davos.Its not in order but Ser Davos takes top spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Falcon Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I am sure just about all the ones I liked are already mentioned. But to add one (that I do not think was mentioned) would be in aDwD the first time Jaime see's Riverrun he comments on how it was surrounded by Lions, but the the ramparts were still flying the fish of Tully, and above it all stood, defiant, the banner of House Stark.I do not have my book handy, but if someone knows that quote, or the page it is on, please let me know.
