“Winter is coming.”
Persona non grata
A Song of Fire and Ice:The Extremely Condensed Version.
Honestly either say something pertinent ,offer an opinion, whistle a merry tune or shut the fucking fuck up.
I seriously hate you pseudo intellectual types,especially the ones who are Newt fans.

Nice... right here goes...Originally Posted by IdolEyes787
I could not find the original thread so I thought I would start a new one... “Winter is coming.”
speaks volumes... I was looking for like-minded participants who perhaps might have read the book... of course I could/should/may have included that... and yet... surely I would have commented further once the thread began to take shape... Your contribution as always is truly inspired and I am certain it has wrought such profound enlightenment that only mortals like myself only dare to perceive...
Persona non grata
Newt's gay,not that I'm judging.
Less seriously though,has it struck you that there are very few true villains in GoTs and characters are merely trying to move forward by means of whatever talents have been afforded them?

I agree...I think what G.R.R.M had in mind was not so much good vs evil but flawed human characters with potential for doing the right thing at the wrong time, the wrong thing at the right time, and rarely what we would expect of the hero/anti-hero archetype.
The one uniting enemy for Westeros presumably will be the the White Walkers. And anyone who goes against Daenerys Targaryen will be despised at some point... I guess the question should go out... who should rightfully claim the throne? The wrong answer t'wood make villains of us all.
Persona non grata
I find the fact that so many people actually feel some weird need to record videos of everything they do and then post it on the internet at least six times as disturbing as any piece of TV fiction.

And posts the vid.
Persona non grata
hole69 says he found the scene shocking mainly because they missed the perfect opportunity of showing some good dead pregnant queen rape.In before hole69 says he masterbated to it.
And posts the vid.
He says if he were a director that's what he would have done and another good reason why under no circumstances should hole69 ever be allowed anywhere near a movie camera.

A partial list of things hole69 should also be kept from:
-cameras
-people
-food
-water
-molecules
-atoms
-subatomic particles
I do, however, suspect he's spent some time in and around black holes.

The Red Wedding scene was, I am sure, quite shocking to many and it no doubt disappointed most GoT fans... The elimination of a worthy contender for the Iron Throne aside, regicide, fetalcide, (there is no word for it so I made it up) and what would seem to be an abrupt ending to one of the main story threads, was... is... hard to comprehend right away... Although it did seem odd/interesting when it ended and the black screen came up with the credits.... I could not help but recall the Sopranos' ten seconds of black screen in the series finale.
When I read it in the book I was surprised that GRRM would/could wipe out what had so much potential for... I guess some kind of fulfilment/resolution perhaps with Arya finally seeing her mom again and a Casterly Rock battle and so on... Does it make sense later? Well... I can say it will serve to drive a plot twist of its own.
It was a powerful moment on film... even while I knew it was coming I was... overwhelmed by its delivery.
... and the reactions it garnered re: Idols post, had me laughing in a somewhat disturbing context... hard to explain...
There is bound to be another as the season finale will have a most interesting/satisfying conclusion.
