CGI costs money bro.

But seriously, she doesn't want to enter a city in a low position.

CGI cost money? They showed a whole city made by cgi, i think they could draw 2 more dragons. Whatever it is, that's not the reason.


The city will have been done with a matte painting, it's infinitely easier (and as a result cheaper) to do than actually animating a completely fabricated model like the dragons.


They've also said they don't want to desensitize the audience to the dragons. They want them to stay "magical" for many seasons to come.

Show gets better and better. Really enjoying this season so far. Shadow baby was so fucking creepy and well done. Sounds like she's half enjoying the 'birthing' process which only adds to the creep factor. Wtf red woman , what secrets you must know.

Contrary to some I really like when they mix in some classic fantasy elements such as magic and dragons, but only a smidge. As opposed to say some swashbuckling D&D adventure. When +5 longswords of slaying everything become commonplace, it really takes the magic out of magic. Keeps it more mystical and exciting with a low fantasy setting such as Game of Thrones.

That fire woman is so fucking hot I can't believe it. Can't wait to see what kind of powers she have. I hope they'll show some more of dragon lady though, basically all this season so far nothing has happened she has just arrived at the city.

I'm right there with you and think they've done an extraordinary job keeping a good balance. The most important thing is the drama but, seeing the mystical/magical stuff every once and awhile makes it so much better. Like the cherry on top.

The ending was superb. Episode was good, too. I dislike cliche expressions and I guess this is going to be the first time I'm gonna use it but Carice van Houten (Melisandre) is hot. Her body, red hair, even pregnant belly looked sexy on her.

Anyone here think of Fast and Furious 2 during the bucket/mouse torture scene?

Loved that ep. Even though I knew from this thread that Melisandre being pregnant was some kind of magic, I was like "what the... hell?" when I saw the last scene.
Also, am I the only one to think that Tywin is the most bad-ass "faction leader" we got to see in the show up until now? The man's got some charisma

Ditto. I guess some tortures just never change

Great great episode. So many interesting story lines ugh I just can't wait for more!

Totally agree, one does not come to power and wealth without being a cunning man. Besides that it's Charles Dance who has that presence on the screen.

I beg to differ on the last point. That pulsating bundle of darkness within her womb was possibly one of the only unattractive things about her in this series. I was most definitely not thinking "Carice van Houten is so fucking hot" when that thing was being birthed. In fact the only thing I was thinking was "wtf?!?!?!"
