'Now your things are mine' is the creepiest line ever. I mean, apart from 'his pants settled to the floor'.

This start looking to me like a case of the writer deliberately putting a theme in the books, and readers taking it literally as some kind of writer's endorsement, instead of writer's criticism. Beside the chuckles I think you're dragging this too far: like housewives in the sixties finding all sort of satanic messages in The Beatles songs. You're seeing monsters everywhere.

When people tell me that GRRM is perfectly fine with regards to women sometimes I can't breathe for laughing.

What's wrong with me that the first thing I notice is what an awful turn of phrase 'queried pleasantly' is?

Gurm has another short story called Meathouse Man about loving dead bodies. It's probably a good idea to avoid any stories of his whose titles end in "Man". Also, another rumor I heard about the next season is that Xaro and Dany are going to be lovers.

Well, he was certainly courting her as if they were, but dude is flamingly gay. Like, Wildfire gay.

It has been since book 1 that I care about a Dany chapter, but I do remember XXD being a pedophile who's into little boys, and only wanted to marry Dany for her dragons and she's just like "lol wut?" Why make him a lover? Do we really need more Emilia Clarke nude scenes? God drat it, HBO.

But... Integrity! HBO is supposed to be better than Showtime and Cinemax! Don't sully the weird meandering story of Dany by just making her BOOBS.

whowhatwhere posted:Into little boys? I think you're confusing him with Lyn Corbray (dude over in the Vale who was courting Lysa, then plotting against Littlefinger in exchange for gifts of boys from Littlefinger). XXD is very much into buff men. Shows how little I care about Dany chapters. There was a pedo, a dude who just wanted her as part of his harem, a dude who was described as hella fat, DAARIO~, and a few others. If XXD was in Clash, and he was into Charles Atlas, then was the pedo in Storm, and what was his name? (srsly, I give zero fucks about Dany chapters)

I wonder if HBO will move up Xaro's pornographic dance troupe scenes from ADWD, it seems like something they wouldn't want to risk missing out on if they get canceled before the story progresses that far.

In HBO's Westeros, black people are all pedophiles. And in regard to seeing monsters, well, one who fights monsters must be careful not to become one, abyss gazing etc, etc

Factor_VIII posted:No, I'm pretty sure Dany made a comment about how she thought he was into young boys. Well, yeah, I thought he was possibly an ephebophile, but he was clearly really into the guys during the "She was aroused by their arousal" scene, so I figured I was misremembering ACOK

Xaro likes dudes but Dany's story from this point out would be even more visually boring than it already is in print if she didn't have legitimate non-Jorah sex possibilities. Though they could have moved up the Daario intro I guess. Some stories don't need romance or sex to be more interesting on screen (see: Arya, Theon). Others need as much as humanly possible.

I wouldn't say that this is endemic in all HBO shows (Curb, Enlightened and Luck are all current, boob-free HBO shows) but GoT belongs in the True Blood tier of trash-n-tits HBO soap operas, not in the The Wire / Luck / Deadwood / Boardwalk Empire circle, which all have fewer tits-per-hour (though most of them have at least occasional nudity.)

Factor_VIII posted:How long before it pupates and metamorphosizes into the mature form? At 6 weeks old the proto-GRRM will cocoon itself in lemoncakes and emerge a fully-formed squeaky-voiced rapist in 8 weeks. It will then live out its days consuming greasy snack foods, watching football, groping women at conventions, writing comic books and doing interviews.

The groping at conventions is actually part of the egg implantation process. It all makes sense now. Terrifying, disgusting sense.
