Hi.

We don't need a two-post, 5,000-word essay for every weekly thread that mentions every character that was on screen for thirty seconds and hasn't appeared for two-and-a-half seasons, while managing to say nothing informative about anything at all.

Post a wiki link. The end. Full episode guides. Full articles on everything, and that aren't a one-sentence joke that no one will get/care about/read. Slightly creepy wallpaper. All spoiler-free.

If you look closely you can tell this is fake because the burnt area switches sides a few times.

This page is longer than a wikipedia article on Sonic the Hedgehog.

One day a mod is going to replace all the images in the character guide with beecock and you'll be sorry you ever doubted it.

And now I know what that is.

If you guys want to know a cool little trivial connection between characters:

This dude who listened to Sansa's confession in the Vale...



is the father of THIS dude who died way back in the very first scene of s01e01!

I also know that there are still people (my sister included, until a few weeks ago*) who didn't realise that Lord Commander Mormont was Jorah "Friendzone" Mormont's father.

You could play a long game of "this dude is THIS dude's dad!" connections with this series and keep surprising people.


*My sister, I poo poo you not, also didn't realise that Stannis is Robert's brother, until she saw something on Youtube a month or so ago. She legitimately didn't get why he was so adamant about getting the throne for himself.

So it turns out the laptop I uploaded the previous image on has completely poo poo contrast so it was supposed to look like this:



So the image you made before the episode aired, and posted in the non spoiler thread, shows Oberyn with blood coming out of his eye, no teeth, and blood spattered around his head. :raise:

I'm not at all concerned about Tyrion. GRRM kills a lot of characters but I can't see him killing off Tyrion or Arya or Jon basically ever.

What about Ned, Robb or Cat?

Fun trivia about that scene: It was shot in such a way with the hand shake that no matter where you move, the gun is always pointed at you when viewing it.



Sorry to derail but what the gently caress do you even mean by that?

It's the "eyes follow you around the room" effect. But with the barrel of a gun. It's not particularly impressive; anything pointing directly at the camera will seem to be pointed at you from whatever angle you view it.

That is how images on 2D surfaces work. And now a goon is amazed by this simple fact and is gushing praise about "the way it was shot! Aren't they super clever guys!!!"
