lag∞n, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 17:24 (fourteen years ago)

I want it for my front porch

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 17:50 (fourteen years ago)

TO SURVEY MY LANDS

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 17:50 (fourteen years ago)

Porto for Pyros (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:07 (fourteen years ago)

what ho? are you dragon-born sir?

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:16 (fourteen years ago)

sword of.

sorry. Couldn't help myself.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:18 (fourteen years ago)

I am so running you through for that.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:24 (fourteen years ago)

Totally fair. I get your point.

Sorry.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:25 (fourteen years ago)

Drawn. And quartered.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:27 (fourteen years ago)

However you slice it, I was wrong.

Doh! Sorry.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:27 (fourteen years ago)

would love to sit on that and be like "Talk to the Hand... of the King!!!"

that's why ZOG controls the radio (brownie), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:39 (fourteen years ago)

they had a GoT exhibit at the Tiff building by my office. you could sit in the iron throne and they'd take a few pics and send you on your way with a contact sheet and a DVD of the first episode. not bad for a free dealy!

Porto for Pyros (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:44 (fourteen years ago)

I would never get out of it once I sat down.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:49 (fourteen years ago)

"Come see the throne [with unremovable VG] today at Westfield Mall"

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 18:49 (fourteen years ago)

this broke my brain

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:30 (fourteen years ago)

Fkin Jean M Auel has to get her porny self in there...

Guess what? They crucified him. (Jon Lewis), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:31 (fourteen years ago)

who is the dude on the right?

Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:33 (fourteen years ago)

the bastard

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:33 (fourteen years ago)

took me a minute too

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:33 (fourteen years ago)

jesus

Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:34 (fourteen years ago)

dude playing theon is like a lifesize personification of feckless; great job casting director.

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:34 (fourteen years ago)

Even with the glasses and the haircut I could tell it was Jon Snow because he is always making that same face.

Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 19:40 (fourteen years ago)

is that a recent photo? they all look very young, maybe from lack of beards?

Moodles, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:02 (fourteen years ago)

It's from before the first season

Number None, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:05 (fourteen years ago)

yeah, i was thinking it was maybe from a book release party for Feast of Crows maybe.

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:34 (fourteen years ago)

that would make the pic about 6 1/2 years old... maybe?

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:35 (fourteen years ago)

This might not be common knowledge in the US but the dude who plays Theon is Lily Allen's brother (and Keith Allen's son obviously), he's basically a professional feckless tabloid twat. I quite like watching him as Theon because you know that only unpleasant things are going to happen to him.

Matt DC, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:40 (fourteen years ago)

he really brought it in that scene with the maester tho tbf

Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:41 (fourteen years ago)

yeah i think he killed it this whole season

ciderpress, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:44 (fourteen years ago)

so I was going to respond to the torrent and stream suggestions with a sactimonious response about how I don't want to watch this through non-legit means and want to wait for the HD glory of blu-ray, but then I thought "what the hell" and started checking out the streams.

I watched the first 3 episodes of season two and they are great! Clash of Kings is my favorite of the books so I think I'm really going to enjoy this.

So far the major changes (Mel and Stannis doin' it, Renly's love troubles, various other little details) haven't struck me as nearly egregious as the annoying new scenes from season 1. I hope this continues for the rest of the eps.

Moodles, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 20:53 (fourteen years ago)

wtf jon snow looks all meh, idgi. amazing what not brushing yr hair and wearing a giant animal pelt does for you.

are we SURE that's jon snow?

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 21:32 (fourteen years ago)

all of them save jon snow still have some slight mediaeval flourishes to their look

Hmm... I thought it would embed but I think I broke it by trying to do the specific time URL. Anyway, yeah - 2min 20s:

Walter Galt, Thursday, 7 June 2012 15:07 (fourteen years ago)

in order for it to embed, the v=[youtube tag] parameter has to come right after the question mark otherwise the site doesn't recognize it as an embeddable Youtube URL

WHEY AHR MAH DREGUNS? (DJP), Thursday, 7 June 2012 15:10 (fourteen years ago)

otm about needing a merkin for that sequence; occurred to me as well.

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 7 June 2012 15:28 (fourteen years ago)

I have such a girlcrush on Osha.

she's awesome.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 7 June 2012 16:46 (fourteen years ago)

Her voice = hottt

milk of the puppy (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:02 (fourteen years ago)

I said this to my friend who did some work with her and he said "she would destroy you"

ooooiiiioooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaoooooh un - bi - leevable! (LocalGarda), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:04 (fourteen years ago)

even hotttter then

milk of the puppy (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:04 (fourteen years ago)

I hate how she dips her head and moves it funny while she's talking? I think it's supposed to mimic predators surveying their prey or w/e and it gets used really clumsily sometimes to connote sexual rapaciousness or primitiveness of some kind and tbh it's just obnoxious on a lot of levels.

how did I get here? why am I in the whiskey aisle? this is all so (Laurel), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:07 (fourteen years ago)

I only just recently realized she was Tonks in Harry Potter (slow/too lazy to imdb)

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:07 (fourteen years ago)

hmmm laurel that's a v interesting catch.

"Holy crap," I mutter, as he gently taps my area (silby), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:28 (fourteen years ago)

the thought of Joff with Natalie Dormer still gives me shivers

Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:32 (fourteen years ago)

I mean I didn't really think about it at the time, because Littlefinger crepeing on Sansa out-shivered it but still

Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Thursday, 7 June 2012 18:33 (fourteen years ago)

is that face she does her smile or just a face she does
