I really loved the ending to the show The editing for that switch to credits and just the feeling I think was the best ending to a show in the middle of a season I've ever seen. not the actual event but the way it was directed and edited and just played out was amazing.


Also Drogo = badass of the year award winner. gona be hard to top that scene.
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon

The Arya scene was good. It's hard to show a girl (or boy) her age kill someone; the scene gave her a survival-reaction opportunity to experience it. It's not supposed to be drawn or flashy. She did it because she had to and she did it how she was trained.

I have to disagree with this statement. Arya did what she had to, but she didn't use anything she had learned from her "dancing master". Its an important distinction to make: its quite different having a fun lesson and being confronted with a real danger, especially for a little girl.

In the end she literally just stuck the boy with the pointy end.

Yeah, the way it happened in the show, it looked like an accident.
As far as I'm considered, she was completely justified in killing him... but she didnt' mean to. It just sort of happened.

At least, thats how it looked in the show.

I just noticed.... is this the first episode with no sex?


(Not that it's a bad thing, necessarily.)
You don't need a counter-strategy, just a completely whoopass one.

Honestly don't understand the criticisms episode 8 is getting, i thought it was the best episode so far o.O

Maybe that's just because I've been waiting too see the Great Jon hahahaha

So how is it in there? Looks a bit cold and uncomfortable. ;P


I thought the ep. was awesome, too. I'm thinking the ones who dindt like it too much were ones who read the book and saw the scenes better in their heads ;P

Barristan is a fucking bad ass. I'm sorry.

More Barristan please.


And Drogo is just like, holy shit. His TONGUE?


Everything was spot on in this episode. Amazing. + Show Spoiler [Possible?] +
(I leave for Ned and Sansa parts though since it's so painful to watch)

Personally.. I loved it. I particularly like Khal Drogo's scene, that was amazing, a real show of badassery. I also love how the Khaleesi's character is developing.

It seems like everyone saying the episode was less than amazing is comparing scenes they've imagined in their head to how it played out on screen.

This exactly, its a screen adaptation people. Its really difficult for them to make it as good as YOU perceive it from the book. Even if you think GRR Martin *intended* for it to be shown a certain way, its most likely thats your interpretation, and no one can rightly live up to your own fantasy.


Actually until this last episode I've been dumbfounded at how good it's been, this episode had 2 exceptions otherwise I'm still amazed, despite my bitching I did like the Drogo scene, just thought it was a little over the top.


Drogo was so hot in his action scene. Anyone saying otherwise has bad taste in men.

He was EPIC going on with his speech in his crazy Dothraki tongue, sounding ethnic as hell, and marching around dropping his weapons, then he just turns around and is like FATALITY. THEN PULLS OUT THE GUY'S FKING TONGUE. As if to say, look bitch, this is what happens when you wag your tongue too much! Then he doesn't even hold it up as a trophy or treat it with any dignity, he simply throws it on the heap with all the other meaty bits that his warriors have collected and sits down to smile and drink some kool-aid.

HOW DOES IT GET ANY MORE BAD ASS THAN THAT? Nobody cares about stupid ass scythe-fencing or any martial arts skills in this situation. They just want to see this hurly burly man march around screaming his crazy talk and then just ripping meaty chunks out of other people's heads. That is 10000x more epic than your standard, run of the mill heavily choreographed sword fight scene. If you want that go watch The Three Musketeers.

P.S. If you haven't noticed, ASoI&F is an over-the-top series.

He's very good. He's also one of the several primarily stage actors on the show.

Just started watching this series and I'm already hooked. Crazy shit happening from the very first episode.

Also, that little shithead blonde prince reminds me of Draco Malfoy. Oh how I would beat my future child if he bears any resemblance.

FYI, Jason Momoa (actor for Drogo) was the one who convinced the producers to add the Drogo fight scene. I'm they added the scene because Drogo is supposed to be this awesome badass but we've never actualy seen much action from him.

You would beat your child because he bears resemblance to a fictional character in a children's story about magic?
