except that it won't happen now, because Tywin is at Harrenhal instead

Sorry! What Gukbe said there was my reasoning as to why it wasn't a spoiler. Will talk on the other thread.

according to the poster that is from the press kit and is a preview of the Blu-Ray feature. kind of thought HBOGo would mean I wouldn't have to bother buying the set but damn, if that's the kind of extras they've got.

okay, i'm starting in w season 2 tonight, after saving up episodes for a while. thought i might be lost & playing catch-up for a while, cuz i remembered almost nothing about what'd been going on, but no, it's all come back. very enjoyable, too. do find myself bothered by the same thing that bugged me most last season: everyone on this show is complete idiot. no one behaves with even a trace amount of political sense or tact. funniest thing is that those who seem as though they're supposed to be the most wily (petyr baelish, for instance) are the most catastrophically stupid in this regard. "knowledge is power" my ass.

but that's the very magic of the show!

im not enjoying this season as much, i think maybe because the watching all in one sitting is especially good for game of thrones idk
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 04:04 (twelve years ago) link
then u dont think abt it too hard
for sure. i mean, i read the first three books in a couple of weeks. thinking hard was at a minimum. highly satisfying.
― obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 04:06 (twelve years ago) link
yet i still feel the anguish of waiting a week for each new ep
― obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 04:08 (twelve years ago) link
prob by the end when everyone gets their head cut off i will like it as much tho

not that i know but that's what basically everyone who has read the books says about the show

i have been reading the spoilers thread i must admit
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 04:11 (twelve years ago) link
frankly i prob wouldve just read the wikipedia summaries of all the books by now except that theyre not even finished so whats the point
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 04:12 (twelve years ago) link
have tried real hard to avoid all spoilers. so far, i've managed to protect my virtue* from the taint of undesired knowledge. did read one thing abt tyrion that i hope doesn't happen, but i gather it lies beyond this season.
* ignorance
― THE KITTEN TYPE (contenderizer), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 04:29 (twelve years ago) link
I am reading the books now b/c I keep spoiling myself through, like, googling fairly innocuous questions about background stuff re: religion or history of westeros. books are v entertaining thus far and I usually hate this shit.
― Clay, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 06:13 (twelve years ago) link
3 episodes in. tyrion at least can lay claim to some sense.
― THE KITTEN TYPE (contenderizer), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 07:27 (twelve years ago) link
I opened the spoiler thread thinking it would be fine as I've read up to book 4, but there's a real arse of a spoiler for something that presumably happens in book 5 right in the first post.

have watched all four new episodes now. getting bored. in the space of four hours, danaerys has made it to a city, tyrion has schemed effectively, various kings have rattled their swords, joffrey has been a dick, baelish has schemed ineffectively, jaime has sat in a cage, snow has visited an incest family, bran has had a dream, arya has been captured, and lady stark has traveled about a bit.

I used to think that way, but now I'm just "ANOTHER PLACE?" and I kind of wish all the characters would hang out in Central Perk and just hash it out over a cup of java.
