Tickler RIP.
Next episode looks fantastic. At least we can go a week without someone whining about tits and ass. Phew.
But now we're gonna have nothing to talk about!

ACOK spoilersSo do we think Theon will be taking Winterfell next week?
But now we're gonna have nothing to talk about!
This episode was too fragmented to be coherent. This is one of those episodes that would be best viewed in a back-to-back viewing when the Blu-Ray comes out, as a stand alone it was really disjointed and with no consistent thematic.
Love Arya scenes, but fuck @ The Ticker wtf. Also love Brienne/Cat scene. Also lol @ that being the time they use the CG for dragons. Would have been better spent at the doors of Qarth!
Theon gets all the cool looking armor.
I haven't watched the episode yet, but Tickler is dead?
Ok, so (ASOS)since the Tickler was killed, I guess they'll have to have Arya kill someone else in the Inn with the Hound. Kinda disappointed though, because that moment is in my top 5 in the entire series, and a lot of it is because of her dialogue while stabbing him. "Is there gold in the village? Gems? Where is Lord Beric? Are you hiding him?"
Overall a pretty good episode. The pacing felt really good again, like last week's. Arya continues to be great.
So you complain about memles mentioning there were no tits in this episode and now are reading this thread even though you haven't watched it yet?
Anyway, I thought that episode was fine, it did well to move the story forward but it's not something I would judge individually since it didn't really have any coherency between the scenes. Although I do expect book readers to complain about some of the changes they've done.
BTW...And am I misremembering or isn't it pretty much stated in ACOKthat Xaro is gay? Seems he's decidedly not in the show after he talked about a dead wife. Guess that could have been a lie

Can't they just use Polliver or Armory Lorch for that scene?
Yeah TV Xaro is an improvement.They changed it,The actor mentioned that in some interview I read.he's not gay anymore.
I'm okay with this interpretation, TV Xaro is way more interesting and charismatic than the book version.
The only thing I didn't like is the way the wildfire was handled. That was Tyrions idea in the book. Taking the initial idea away from him softens his character a little too much. Granted he later decides to use it anyways, but still....
Also on the wildfire (Acok and SoS spoilers)in the book, it was scattered around the city, the mad king had put it everywhere as he planned to burn the city down rather than let it be taken. "let him be king of ashes and charred bones" or somesuch. thus when Jamie killed him it saved the city from being burned. By having the wildfire being made and not just found in huge vaults across the city it takes something away from that Jamie moment later.
Great episode. They fucking nailed Pyat Pree.. so creepy.
They made it in the books too.
Qarth in general seems weird as hell. A creepy bald guy invites Dany to house of the undying (seems legit) and a masked chick wanders around and talks to strangers with no one noticing. Also secret vaults and impromptu marriage proposals.
Also it must suck to be Davos.
Stannis: Here's my insane plan.
Davos: Uh, that's kind of a bad idea...
Stannis: Are you questioning my loyalty?
Davos: No, but...
Stannis: Good. Now listen as I administer you this shitty task.

ASOS spoilersSoS spoilersyeah I know, but it would be nice if they mentioned that there was huge vaults of the stuff all around the city.
renely got DT rushed

Who gives a shit about The Tickler? Enjoy the show people.
ASOS spoilers.(series)The Tickler had one of the top 5 (probably top 3) deaths in the series. I hope to fuck they have some plan to replace the impact of that scene. That is THE transitional scene for Arya.

Loved the margerey and Littlefinger scene. Looooooved it.... (BIG ASS STORM OF SWORDS SPOILER DONT CLICK)because it's setting up the foreshadowing of Joffreys death. Margerery wants to be THE queen, she ain't going to take Joffreys shit. Love it!

Yeah, you smash the shit out of those nuts Rickon.
I thought that was great extra touch. Kinda creepy, sad, and funny at the same time. Winterfell sure is a depressing place right now.
