Patience mate, they will explain anything that seems odd now in future episodes


Exactly, just chill. It is not known... Yet.

Hear, hear. HBO let The Wire run wild with 20 episodes per season. Now that they have the settings, make-up, costumes, actors. Just extend the damn thing! Give a cooking lesson with Hot Pie. Arya chases more cats. And more.

I thought it was pretty obvious that Doreah helped Xaro Xhoan Daxos and Pyat Pree in their scheme, hence the punishment.

I'd consider that a serious crime given the amount of people that died.

Sorry, but the wire certainly was never 20 episodes per season, it was usually 12 and I'm pretty sure the last season is only 10.

I was serious about the show having more episodes. There is a lot of good dialogue that's been cut way too short. Scenes that should be a solid 5-8 minutes long are 2-3 and that does not suffice for me. I was wrong about The Wire though. armada[sb] has the right of it.

Ya I think it was pretty clear that she help Xaro steal the dragons because the dragons trust her. Without Doreah the dragons would have probably flipped so Xaro needed her and she helped...

maybe i'm missing the troll, but that's not why. Doreah was the on who sold them out and let the dragons be taken. Her and Zorro (or whatever). they were in league with the warlock dude all along so he'd kill the other 13.

No dreams and prophecy sequences in House of Undying makes me a sad panda:| so much intrigue lost with excluding that, for me the next 3 books are all revolving around what Danny saw in her visions.

You don't feel it was adequately explained what happened in Winterfell but nor does Bran/Theon, the point of view characters. The episode isn't at fault, your understanding is meant to be flawed, if your explanation doesn't make sense then question that.


Actually I agree. There are many things in almost all episodes that they could have done so much better.
Main thing in the last one was the warlock fiasco. They presented him kinda like an end boss only to be squashed like a fly in the most silly way possible.
Adapting books to movies takes really talented directors. It just so happened that the season 1 directors were that much better than the current ones(yes there are many different directors, not just 1).


Not so sure about this, what would you have them do? Dany is not a fighter, she can't kill him on her own. It's either death by dragonfire or no death at all. Perhaps the effect could have been a little more "magical" since dragonfire looks exactly like normal fire, and people aren't excited by normal fire. The wildfire last episode, for example, was very dramatic looking.

Cersei my new most hated character, hate her even more than her demon-spawn King.

Poor Sansa has been nothing but the model of congeniality and obedience. She took all the misery and garbage thrown at her, and didn't break.

And then Cersei just gives her that smug sneer after stealing away her Queenship... ohhhhh... I hate Cersei. She has no reason to dislike Sansa. Maybe it is in her best interest to marry Joffrey to someone else, but she just has to be a bitch about it. Hate her.

After this episode my new least favorite is Jon Snow. I mean how annoying is it that he won't kill a girl who he has no connection to, but he'll kill his comrade without a second thought. I know that he was doing it to help him out but they wouldn't have ended up in that mess if it wasn't for him.

I'm unhappy as well with how the Halfhand scene played out. Very... anticlimactic, to be frank.

Really? I didn't see the scene that way at all. She knew very well that Sansa had no desire to be Joffrey's queen, I think if anything, it was an act of sympathy towards her.

That's an interesting take that I didn't consider...

But it's not like Sansa is free (as Littlefinger so "kindly" reminded her). I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Felt like a backstab to me, though. Considering all that Sansa has had to put up with, she might as well get a Queenship out of it.

Guess we'll see how it plays out next season.
