Ahhhh, now i remember. Thanks guys.

This should jog your memory;

Interesting... Is there a sense that the next book will be the final one, or something? Otherwise, what're the chances GRRM will manage to finish up the series on time? It seems he's not one to rush things.

Two more books are left to be written.

 

[Nerokis]

According to wikipedia the next book is book 6 and book 7 is also planned.

Two more books are left to be written.

Good to know. Finishing up one book and then going through another in the time it will take for the show to get to season 7 or 8 sounds feasible, but it seems we're catching up at a much, much faster rate than GRRM typically writes new material.

Suddenly I'm a little worried about the next book. Looking it up, the most recent one released only a couple months after the show began, right? Now that the show is as huge as it is, I can only imagine the spoiler rush the next book release will trigger.

GRRM already talked with the showrunners/HBO about how he wants to end the books IIRC. That way the show can finish and GRRM can finish his books.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

He's not going to finish the series before the show is at it's final season.

There is going to be a time, and apparently it just happened last episode, where future elements of the books will be spoiled by the show.

He has already told the show runners how the series ends, so when the time comes where the show has no more source material they can still stay true to the planned endings.

 

[soundscream]

From reading most TV threads on here it seems people are typing on the internet while watching the show.

I just find that too distracting now, Once a show starts I close my laptop. I know the shared communal thing is fun but it means you miss so much dialogue and detail.

It just seems like a lot of the posters here would be that person in the movie theater asking "who is he again" every 5 minutes.

With some shows it's kind of doable but with a show like GoT I can't. Way too much stuff going on.

And I'm all for it. I avoid so much of the internet become some idiot will spoil something on the show (and I've already had a few major deaths/events spoiled unfortunately).

Same here. GoT is the kind of show that requires your full attention. I turn down the lights down too. For that cinematic feel

 

[Peagles]

A man after my own heart! That combines two of my favorite jokes:
1) ask 2 people with the same first name if they are related.
2) only refer to Karl Drogo as Karl Drogo.

Reminds me of Maggie in Extras asking about Ross a Kemp and his onscreen brother.

Yes they are, they're the Mitchell brothers!

[Ovid]

Yeah i hope he gets to rule for a while, but we know what end await good people (especially if they are kings) in this show :'(

You know there is going to be a tug of war between Tywin and Margarey.

 

[Victarion]

I hope Tommy is a good king.

I don't get why do you post in both book and unsullied threads.

Never has sexual grooming been so arousing.

 

[DynamoJack]

Never has sexual grooming been so arousing.

Did they try to make her look younger in that scene, makeup? She looks older elsewhere, maybe give the impression to the audience that the age gap wasn't too glaring, don't want to cause too much controversy.

I don't know if they were aiming for that, I mean, Tommen is barely old enough to know his dick can be used for other things besides pissing and Margaery has been through the kamasutra back AND forth..

 

[Funky Papa]

Those eyes... NNNNGGGGH.

They make her look younger in every scene I think. Makeup does some amazing things. Her facial structure helps her look young as well. I honestly thought she was about 23 when I first saw her in the show.

Her looking a bit older in Elementary

Ah crap. Now I've been sucked into a vortex of Tumblr gifs

No complaints.

Softer light and shadows is probably what makes her look really attractive

And the bedroom eyes.

Those bedroom eyes.

 

[Nameless]

Tommen became one of my favorite characters after rewatch. The way he stares at Margaery nervously mesmerized and googly eyed, and nods excitedly when she's asks to visit again was perfect. Fortuitous timing for Tyrells that Tywin recently gave him the sex talk. It just gives Margaery a wider net with which to ensnare the poor/lucky boy. Props to young Tommen, he didn't run from the almost kiss. My 11-12 year old self would have suffered a massive coronary.

Gods know I love Cersei but I cannot wait to see her reaction when she moves to align her son against Margaery only to discover her Rose has already been planted. Cersei's scowl wiil scorch the not-earth.

Shit, I don't think I'd be able to keep the eye contact.

That's one way of putting it.

 

[gribbles]

Her face is still weird.

[poppabk]

just got hbo go and binge watched this over the last week, all caught up now.

Great show, and the opening song is amazing. Do the new episodes appear on Hbo Go right as it airs, "live"?

If you are on Comcast and are watching on PC, I have had no issues streaming it live from Xfinity.

 

[Rootbeer]

I've had issues in the past... not for GOT (though I don't always use HBOGO on Sunday night each time), but for a few episodes of True Detective.

However, for S04E04 I did watch Sunday night around 6:10pm right as HBOGO first added it... and had zero issues. Using Comcast. Would be nice if the issues are totally behind them, but I could have just lucked out.

 

[Speevy]

I don't get why do you post in both book and unsullied threads.

This was a joke. No one got it, apparently.

 

[soundscream]

She will break him. That ABC lesson Tywin gave him wont have him prepared for that. Especially since Grandma told her to put it on him so he cant walk in the morning.

 

[GungHo]

I wonder how long they took to get this shot, with the actress sitting there, staring at the cat, saying "come on, up, up" and the cat just staring at her like a little asshole, knowing he/she was burning up film stock. I love cats, but they suck when it comes to performing when they know you want them to perform.

 

[kaskade]

Holy, I did not realize Locke was the guy who cut of Jamie's hand. Poor Jon Snow.

 

[Loomba]

Me either, he seemed cool as well...

 

[Ceres]

Holy, I did not realize Locke was the guy who cut of Jamie's hand. Poor Jon Snow.

I thought it was him but my thinking was more along the lines of "Either that's whats his face or they cast a guy who looks a hell of a lot like him"

Also took me a moment to realize crazy guy who took Craster's place was the scientist in Pacific Rim.

Looks to me as if she gives the cat food with her right hand.

 

[Snuggles]

Holy, I did not realize Locke was the guy who cut of Jamie's hand. Poor Jon Snow.

He's Roose Bolton's pet rat. I pretty much hate that entire crew between Jamie's disfigurement, Brienne's day in the bear pit, and of course the betrayal of the Starks. I even want to see some retribution for Theon. Bastards need to die.

 

[The Lamonster]

Holy, I did not realize Locke was the guy who cut of Jamie's hand. Poor Jon Snow.

Hopefully Jon fucks this guy up and reunites with Bran, in either order.

Honestly, I just want at least two 'Starks' to reunite. PLEASE!

 

[Dash27]

Yeah I missed that too.

So who is the dude who has Bran and Hodor and the gang captured now?

 

[Philippo]

My 11-12 year old self would have suffered a massive coronary.

I would have been more like this (and still would, she's too stunning to let me think rationally)

 

[AuthenticM]

I fucking love the juxtaposition of these shots. Margaery is shot from below in an upward angle, making her superior and in power, while Tommen is shot from slightly above in a downward angle, making him the inferior party in the conversation.

 

[Double D]

It'd be neat if Brienne and Jon Snow crossed paths and she helped him fuck shit up at Craster's.

 

[Snuggles]

Aren't both Sansa and Arya headed in the same direction right now (The Vale of Arryn)? Although I wouldn't be surprised to see either or both of the plans fail.

 

[dead monkey uk]

Not going to happen, there are 1000s of miles between them.

 

[Loomba]

Do they know each other? That would be glorious though

 

[Ovid]

Do they know each other?

Nope. Not even close.

 

[AuthenticM]

Not going to happen, there are 1000s of miles between them.

Yeah, and she just swore to Jaimie that she would protect Sansa.

 

[Loomba]

Did Jamie give away his sword or Joffrey's sword? If it was his own then where is the one that was gifted to Joffrey?

 

[SummitAve]

Did Jamie give away his sword or Joffrey's sword? If it was his own then where is the one that was gifted to Joffrey?

Didn't they make 2?

 

[Loomba]

Didn't they make 2?

Yes: 1 given to Jamie, the other given to Joffrey as a wedding gift from Tywin... Jamie gave one away last ep.

I was just wondering if he gave his own away, or Joffrey's.

 

[Snuggles]

I don't think it was made clear, but my assumption is that Joffrey was buried (entombed?) with his, and Jamie gave his own sword away. But again, I don't think it was specified.

 

[The Horror the horror]

Kind of strange that the old lady decides to split before assuring her granddaughter's ascendancy to the throne, especially with the newfound uncertainty related to her claim now that her intended groom is dead.

 

[Ovid]

Aren't both Sansa and Arya headed in the same direction right now (The Vale of Arryn)?

Yes.

The Stark daughters are headed in the same direction. Jon and Bran (not Rickon) are headed towards each other too.

I hope they don't get our hopes up and just kill all them at the same time if/when they meet. That would be sad.

Sometimes I think GRRM is using the Stark's to show us how a family falls and gets wiped out like the Targareyan's (although there are technically still two of them left).

 

[J-Rod]

Hope we get to see Jon fuck up those traitors next episode. He's taking a pretty small party to do it particularly since one is secretly against him.

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

Yes.

Two? Whose the other one?
