I don't think the mountain actually bashed his head in. I figured it to be one of two scenarios. The most basic being he literally crushed his skull within his hands. The other was he grappled the inside of Oberyn's eye sockets with his thumbs and ripped outward. Why am I visualizing this?

I for one am interested in seeing Sansa in this new Maleficent phase of hers. Fun fact: Go back and rewatch last week's scene with Tyrion and Bronn. Bronn pretty much gives the exact play-by-play on how the fight pans out.

The only depressing thing about that episode is I want another one right now, but next week is the penultimate one and is probably going to be just about the fight at the wall, just like Blackwater was. So the aftermath won't be until two weeks

On further reflection, this sort of reminded me of the knife scene from Saving Private Ryan in terms of the sheer unpleasantness.

Also let's not forget the Hound, Gregor's brother, finding Arya practicing a sort of martial arts like he was using, and him saying that she'll definitely get killed "if you nonce about like that." I think that was his wording.

Apparently it has pascal, from a reddit AMA earlier this week posted:Lena is one of my favorite persons. And she (in life) is so funny and so smart, such a good person, a good friend and a good mother, I think everyone on that set and anyone who comes in contact with her develops an instant crush. Talk about male or female, you're going to get a crush on her easy. And I was just lucky that I got to work with her and hit it off and continue being friends. UGH this is why I don't get invested in strangers' personal lives.

Jamie and Tyrion talking about special ed cousins and beetles owned- Peter Dinklage was pretty amazing in that scene given the odd dialogue. Oberyn going  pretty much sums up this show, along with Arya getting all  about a dead aunt.Looking forward to more goth Sansa as she starts playing ball like everyone else on the show.

On the rewatch I noticed that the Mountain's actor messed up his line. "Then I smashed her head in, LIKE THIS!" somehow became "Then I smashed her head, IN LIKE THIS!" Yeah, I know, 3rdMountain hate, Conan Stevens loyalism, grasping, straws, etc.

It's probably worth keeping in mind, as an addendum to all the "strong guys in heavy armor win fights" business, that Bronn pretty much won Tyrion's first Trial exactly the same way: he danced around a less skilled opponent until he got tired and gave him an opportunity. The difference isn't that being faster and smarter doesn't count for anything, it's that Bronn was fighting to win, and Oberyn was fighting to humiliate and gain a confession. He lost because he wasn't being smart, not because he wasn't strong and wearing a helmet.

That was a lot more head explody than i expected. Faithfull to the book? yeah i think so, depending on your interpretation of "smashed her head in like this". I always assumed it meant smashing it into the ground.

Oh yeah, I forgot. Sandor tells Arya that in order to win, you need armor and "a big loving sword." Love the foreshadowing in this show.

Yeah, gently caress GRRM to death. I absolutely hate losing Oberyn, but the likely loss of Tyrion is by far the worst part of this. I can take a little solace in that I don't see a Tyrion beheading setup on the preview, but that ain't worth much, he'll only get saved if a bunch of dragons and White Walkers show up torching King's Landing before the axe comes down. The only worthwhile thing was Sansa emerging as a Playa. And Arya laughing like a loon at the Bloody Gate. I don't know what this makeover business is for the weakling Lord of the Vale, unless it's just the usual fakeout before he falls through the Moon Door.

JT Jag posted:It's worth noting that the vast majority of opponents wouldn't have had the strength to pull the stunt the Mountain did after being stabbed deep in the chest like he was. It was a good way of showing that The Mountain is like this weird supervillain esque strong and they really needed to drum up the hate because they hadn't really focused on the thing he did with the Martells. IMO this was worse than the red wedding.

Tywin just wants to pre-empt the whole wait and kill Tyrion all ready. Very, very minor spoiler given what you just all saw, just to clear up one thing: The Mountain did not die.

Y'know, this is interesting because everybody here is complaining about his head popping, while I found the eyes being crushed far more unpleasant. Having your head caved in/watermeloned is not painful, you die instantly. Eyes being crushed inside the sockets, that is going to hurt. Alot.
