Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

The woman says "Please, Polliver, just some bread!" and gets clubbed in the face.
Then Arya adds Polliver and the Mountain to the list.
Joffrey, Cersei, Ilyn Payne, the Hound, Polliver, the Mountain...
The grammar correction made me laugh so hard, since me and my bf have been discussing on a regular basis that exact word usage...
Where is the Margery Tyrell love people??
Did you see that super weirdo dress and her staying calm in the storm of Peter Baelish's smiling verbal barbs?
Rad.
Also, bodacious.
While going through all of the chapters on disk 1, I came across two videos with readings - one of Sansa and one of Viserys - where they're practicing lines with what I presume are speaking coaches (and/or it was audition tapes?). I must be stupid or something, but I can't find those in the menus. Were they hidden easter eggs or something?
There were 5 or 6 on the various discs. "Dragon eggs."
Oh, yeah. I never got around to looking for those. Were they at all interesting?
Apparently you had to have the menu open while watching the episodes themselves in order for an icon to appear where you could access them.
Tamin, they're here
That was glorious.
Liked how Maisie and Sophie were given the same scene. It's pretty much the perfect one to show their differences.
edit: and Miltos having to ask for the line was interesting. I hadn't realized that was still a thing people do, especially in auditions. Sophie was the only other one with an issue remembering.
When I read the birthing scene in the book the only thing flashing in my head was "HOW ARE THEY EVEN GOING TO DO THIS IN THE SHOW??" but they actually pulled it off. Harrenhal was really neat too. Too bad about the Mountain, this new guy just has the length and none of the rest of the physical presence of the previous mountain.
I'm glad about the latter, but if Dinklage is supporting I don't know who the lead is. Not that there really is one in a show like this, I guess, but isn't he first billed this season?
Regardless, Tyrion's scenes continue to delight.
Oh, and they continue the pattern of having at least one prostitute in damn near every episode.

Yeah, nobody submitted as lead. And Jack Gleason didn't submit at all, which is dumb. He's giving the third best performance so far (Tyrion, obvs, and I think Maisie Williams is #2, though your mileage may vary).
Gleeson really should have, he's probably the most hated villain I've ever seen, and since that's kind of his job that suggests he's freaking killing it.
That really blows. It's not like you can farm XP in this game anyway, just enforce AFK restrictions like in public games.
Sure, the show now features even more concurrent intertwined storylines and a growing cast of major characters, but Season 1 was unquestionably all about Ned Stark and heavily showcased Sean Bean's talents. What a shame!
Count me as another that didn't even notice the Mountain was in this episode. I barely noticed he was big. You have to really be careful filming scenes with big people, the camera can actually make every look closer in size if you are not careful.
*edit* just re-watched his scene. I guess he is tall, but he has none of the menace of the old mountain, and no bulk. His new armor does not suit him at all.
I think they could make him work, but I have a feeling that by the time more Mountain scenes come, they may just hire Conan again if he's done with Hobbit filming. At least thats what im hoping
:winky:
what kind of self respecting city turns away a blonde 10
really
Clearly the big black guy knows the value of gratitude.
:winky:
Sorry for not getting back to you. I didn't bother. I just read about them.
They're probably literate enough to realize that Dany's dark eyebrows are a hint
Luckily Xaro Xhoan Daxos has good taste and likes the brunettes
I had to run for it once they started dropping "rape culture" into the conversation. Not because of them talking about rape culture, but because they weren't even defining it vaguely correctly.
Aaaargh. I may be grouchy here sometimes, but goddamn PA forums I do so appreciate your general non-pretentiousness.
If someone found that scene titillating, they are someone that would terrify me.
That dress made her look like she was getting eaten by a giant fish. Foreshadowing?

He totally wants to get up in dat ass.
Yeah, that's bullshit.
The scene repulsed me. It made my girlfriend cry.

As someone who's reading the respective book at the end of each season: Is it the guy on the right here?
Ed: It's maybe for the best, actually, that you don't confirm or deny that for the sake of spoilers.
But if he's the perfect one, called it!
"Rape culture" might have been an apt description if they made it clear that bedpost thing was being inserted into that chick instead of just being used as a crappy paddle. I've seen porn where the girl takes harder shots than that and loves every second of it.

He looks like Sybok's sidekick, the chicken-skin guy.
Joffrey whore scene was unnecessary.
Good job on shadow-creature birth scene.
No Jon Snow despite ending him on a cliffhanger last episode.
