I loved that Stannis was the first up the ladder, while Joffrey was asking "What did my mother say? Did she say it was URGENT?" while a fucking army comes battering at your gate. Gone from hating Joffrey to just thinking he brings the lolz now.

i was really disappointed that he did not die last night. i haven't read the books, but I have to believe that boy's days are numbered, but now his fucking grandpa's there, so no idea where it'll go next.

There's some, like, dissonance between Joffrey's nerdy-kid vibe and every other actor on the show. His thing seems anachronistic, like a Magic card player who's been displaced. Not that I mind, really.

Hahaha oh god I just accidentally stumbled on some Stannis/Selyse porn fic. (Selyse is his wife.)
Why would anyone ever write that? That seems like the most unappealing idea ever.
I love Tywin in the show, I was really happy when he finally appeared in this episode. In the books, he's just a cruel dick.

cosign about tywin, i think he's a great baddie in the books too, but in the show he's really come to life. his last moment at the end of this ep was pretty ballin

that "why does the hound, who only has half a face due to some tragic fire incident, do a 360 when surrounded by fire?" is even a question for people makes me understand why most mainstream tv shows have flashbacks and scenes of over-exposition

and by 360 i mean 180, lol math

― Number None, Tuesday, 29 May 2012 15:12 (twelve years ago) link
"half-man" but the rhythm of it made it sound more like "man-half" or perhaps sound like nothing at all so it took a while to scan.

I think the thing w/ the Hound's PTSD scene is that it just happened too damn quickly for me. A little more rubbing our faces in the horror of the situation might have sold it a little better imo
― Simon H., Tuesday, 29 May 2012 15:18 (twelve years ago) link
that's what i mean about tv being a medium of rubbing people's facing in the seemingly obvious

that was a kickass explosion, indeed. loved that beat when the Hound and Tyrion are looking at the carnage/screaming with horror, and then they cut to the Maester-y dude who gives a little chuckle

i got the fire reference clearly but I will agree that it was poorly handled in the filming. It didn't need a full on "HOW'D IT GET BURNED HOW'D IT GET BURNED" flashback but the scene was more shorthand than putting you inside the hound's head.

not to get too caught up in book vs movie but I have to say I'm really disappointed that they didn't develop the relationship between Hound/Sansa more. That moment with them last night read much more awkward and out of the blue than it should have.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 29 May 2012 16:22 (twelve years ago) link
it was really short and also ages ago, and an aside in an episode that prob had tons of other stuff happening. it also didn't give any real sense of how damaged mentally he was, if at all.
