Any retarded speculation regarding obviously dead, but it didn't happen on camera, people is still fair game. Syrio Forel being a big point of contention in that regard because, obviously, even with half a broken stick he could kill anyone, because he's such a lovable badass. vvvPretty much that.vvv 67 and still making love fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Apr 5, 2012 |

But as far as filmable television, Jaime writes in a book, Brienne knocks on a few doors, Samwise goes to the Citadel, Dorkstar cuts off Myrcella's ear, Cersei is tried for whatever, Tyrion rides a pig, and Dany sharts. That's like 3 episodes once you pad it out with prostitutes fingerbanging each other's buttholes.

Jaime has a whole bunch of Rhaegar/ smiling knight, Aerys burning the city flashbacks, Brienne gets to kill the last of the mummers and meet with Lord Tarly I think, which could give some further weight to Samwell's (as if he needs it, fat joke) loneliness as he watches the Summer Islanders bang their way across the sea, poo poo in Dorne can definitely be condensed, maybe get a better handle on Arianne and Ser Arys and how much of a lovable dumbass he is, Tyrion gets to be in the inenviable position of being unable to talk himself out of poo poo and Dany.... sharts. drat, poo poo just got desperate. They'll make it work, I don't know how, but they, the indeterminate "they", will make it work. EDIT: Wait, as for Dany, they can just play up the murder mystery aspect of the Sons Of The Harpy and Loraq's part therein for a good while. 67 and still making love fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Apr 5, 2012 |

Stannis is too relaxed in the series. He doesn't look like a man who grinds his teeth or keeps stubbornly trying to be King even though nobody in Westeros wants him or gives a poo poo about him (no, not even Dany shits for Stannis). Though apparently he is a man who fucks his red-headed witch woman on a kickass map-table. Can't wait till he finds out his ~~son~~ is a shadow babby.

Bhaal posted:Had dinner last night with some friends I don't see often. It turns out they've never read the books but are huge fans of the show. They want joffrey dead so badly they can taste it, and are CONVINCED (/hoping) it will happen before the halfway point this season. I probed for more of their speculation and they're pretty sure Robb will have a hand in it if not deliver the killing blow himself. They're pretty big Robb fans, and are just pumped to see Joffrey get whacked in the next couple weeks. The proper thing to do here is to set up a viewing party at your place and film them as the Red Wedding is happening. Then share the video with us. It's our only chance of getting another "my nigga Ned!"

I've planned well in advance to have every non-book reader feast at my house on Red Wedding night with cameras everywhere. One poor sap I know thinks Robb is sure to win, because Ned being the lead was a fakeout, like how most fantasy has an avenging hero, and in this case season 1 was a kind of prequel to the real story; the story of Robb. I won't spoil him because 2 eps deep into season 2 he's such a cheerleader Robb fanboy that I can't wait to see him be completely destroyed when drums are beating and Robb starts sprouting feathers. And I'll be right there next to him. Happiest I will ever be. S03E10 is going to own so loving hard.

Stannis and Melisandre gettin' it on in the books was always implied either through dialogue or somebody's interior monologue right? I can't remember an actual seduction scene.Maytag posted:Stannis in the show has way too much passion. He was a cold robot in the books. Yeah, I thought he gave in to Melisandre pretty easily. All it took was pretty much "Ayo Imma give you a kid" and he's like "Alright I'm game". Then again, who knows how it first happened in the books, right?
