Game of Thrones 4

[rushts]

Oh and superb top bollocks on Melisandre

Was it just me expecting girl on girl action in that scene?

No there was definitely some kind of chemistry there, I was slightly disappointed.

( About the no lesbo action, the episode itself was fantastic)

So the books aren't finished? I didn't know that. I wonder what rights the author has, if and when the series overtakes the books.

He has sold the rights mate and outlined his plans to Weiss and Benioff so if the tv series overtakes, nothing he can do about it, it took 6 years between feast for crows and a dance with dragons,he is already behind with the winds of winter, i think us book readers are screwed.

They are good books but GRRM's writing style really fucks him over. He goes into painful, unnecessary detail and then starts to lose his narrative in a million different tangents which is why he takes so bloody long to finish his books. I've said all along he needs a bloody good editor who will just sit there with a red marker pen and just put giant crosses through sections he's written and tell him theres no point in having it there. He's 65 and obese there is a real possibility he could pop his clogs before he even gets to the last book.

Not only that but he is a Celeb now who turns up at the opening of an envelope, he goes to all the comicon type conventions and has just bought a huge cinema in his home town that he runs, he also edits and writes other things as well, it is very frustrating. Winter has been coming for 18 fucking years now, 1996 the first book came out, grrrr. so for book releases we had 1996-1998-2000-2005-2011- two more to go.

I think they're laughing about how loud the snap would be.

 

[without a dream]

I believe that some of the stories are going at a different pace than in the books (I haven't read them yet). I saw an interview with GRRM who said that he's pretty comfortable with there being two different versions of the same story. I always laugh at people who moan that a particular character isn't as they imagined them in the book. Daenerys is 13 and Jon Snow is 14 ffs. But people are moaning that some bloke doesn't have the right hair.

Not arsed that he doesn't have blue hair, he's just not got the cuntish swagger he has in the books.

Spoiler

The scene with Oberyn and Tyrion was so powerful. I almost shed a tear when Oberyn said Tyrion was not a monster, just a baby with a tiny pink cock.

Spoiler

Wasn't it just. Made me hate Cersei even more and realise just how emotionally fragile Tyrion is. Peter Dinklage is such a superb actor. The emotions on his face as Oberyn made his speech and declared he would be his champion was a masterclass in acting and utterly rivetting tv.
Oberyn has also rapidly gone up in my estimation.

Point of order - do we still need to put spoiler warnings for that episode in now it has been broadcast all over?

I don't think we've actually laid down any rules concerning spoilers, but some people won't have watched it yet.
It's probably something which needs clearing up.

If it makes you feel better he's already written out an extensive guide of whats meant to happen and shared it with the two creators of the TV show so you'll get your ending. Plus every time we complain he kills another character.
