HBO's adaptation of Game of Thrones - Thread 2. There are a lot of nerds.

surprisingly good movie.

I just read in her wiki article that she was dating Bronn at some point IRL and then they had a mean breakup and had to be kept apart on set, lol wtf

Rewatching the episode, I noticed that Arya's face was of the woman who served wine and looked at Jaime earlier in the episode. Probably Arya then as well.

Yeah someone went ew about that upthread.

o that's apparently from snl. i am too gullible

Yeah I thought she'd be gunning for the Kingslayer in that episode alone but I hope his character's got a way to run yet. I'll feel robbed if they don't set him face to face with Dany at some point.

maybe they'll get married

He does seem like her type.

"Not blonde enough?" was a good line.

Hope Varys, Grey Worm and Theon get to hang out more together.

That would be good - they all have such different responses to their castration. Theon could certainly see the example of the other two.

still amazed that cameron weathered the storm after it was revealed he'd fucked his gold-plated dipshit brother

lolz

TOO SOON.

BTW, I kinda entertained the idea that Varys actually has a twin, thus explaining his being in two places at "once".

Not sure if this has been mentioned upthread. Bryan Cogman responds to the teleportation issues:

he does have the dark hair of the Baratheon family

"So tell me, McGendry, where do you NOT want to end up?"

"Hang out"? P cold, nashwan

Not sure why there was so much obfuscating of Jon's father's name in the Tower of Joy scene (thought it all seemed pretty obvious) since the HBO website has confirmed it.

lol really? jfc

One thing I did ponder: was the wildfire cache always under the sept like that specifically, or did someone move it there?

thanks gukbe

trayce, that cache was there from before the show even started - it was placed at the orders of the mad king, and his intent to use it (along with other caches around town! still there, presumably!) was why Jaime got the nickname

Also I have to assume Qyburn and his birds had to knock open at least a couple of bricked-up passages to find that shit, if it were as easy as they made it seem in the episode, somebody else would have discovered it in the intervening period (at least 20 years in Westeros-time)

QUESTION: how do GoTverse people measure years if winter isn't annual?

Oh I knew the cache had always existed under the city, I just wondered if it had always been conveniently under the sept.

..but if theres more than one cache that would explain it dur.

QUESTION: how do GoTverse people measure years if winter isn't annual?

same way we do is my understanding

"winter" isnt about the sun its magical

Search out the cgi breakdown of the battle of the bastards

so I guess the maesters at the Citadel got some astronomy going on and are checking the angles and shit

if that's the case and they have knowledge reaching back centuries or even millenia, couldn't they just be like "yo this is going to be one of those zombie seasons"
actually nevermind I know how this shit works out, once they built the wall, anybody who wanted to bring up "zombie season" was told to STFU or we can enroll you in a nice community college for animal husbandry, you savvy?

i was thinking the maesters dont really have any idea how bad the winter will be just like the farmers almanac

It's called THE WALL son it does what WALLS DO, STOP THINGS do you know how much that wall COST it will NOT FAIL it does what it says on the tin and THEN SOME if you mention whatever that thing you just said again I might have to just make you the new maester for the dreadfort, working for boltons, DO YOU UNDER STAND

So the burning of Stannis' daughter held off winter just long enough for Jon Snow to take Winterfell. Good job Lord of Light!

BTW, a nice touch in the last episode was how they showed us all these white birds flying out of the Citadel, as Sam and Gilly are arriving, and then showed one flying towards Winterfell a little later, and then finally reveal the significance as Sansa and Jon are finishing up their chat on the parapets.

surprised she didnt make that argument xp

no a great conperson

Somehow missed all of that, damn.

Heh:

HBO: What animal would be on your house banner?
Bella Ramsey: A tiger, or an elephant, or a monkey. Actually, a lion! I hate decisions!

wow she sounds super smart for a 12yo

she gives me the vibe of the girl who will go to college at 16 and act in a lot of overemotive theater

So Anne Hathaway?

nerdier

Anne Allthaway?
