    :laugh:

    IIRC the two directors said the entire reason why they worked so hard to get the show was for the RW.

    So I think they're going to try as do as good a job of it as possible. And given how good Blackwater and Baelor were it's promising.

    Awesome.

    I do have fears about how everything will be covered after this though. Hope it can maintain it's popularity after such a dynamic shift in direction. There's alot of things to cover in AFFC as well that I'm dreading. The chracters in it are just so shit.

    I think most will stick through. No way they won't want revenge, and they all want to see Joff die.

    Also, FFC and DWD will run together in the show I'd imagine. And there is plenty to go between them. (and half of them I can't even mention cause you cunts won't read FFC ffs)

    yeah this next ep was the episode ive been waiting for all season

    will be fucking epic if they do it properly, though I believe talisa isn't going to be a spy for the lannisters like she is in the books
     
  5. 99* JJ Ritchie

    I really don't know whats up with her.

    I want them to follow the books, Robb sends her back to Riverrun with the Blackfish to protect her and the child. Spy or not it makes sense and fits later with the book perfectly.

    Probably my only real gripe with the book/show differences so far.

    I'm still not even convinced that she's a spy in the book anyway. There are some convincing theories that the girl Jaime sees is her sister and that the Blackfish took off with the real one.

    Could be such a cunt on FB and ruin the RW for everyone. >_> Just like what all the cunts did after Harry Potter 6 came out lol

    I don't think she's a spy ftr.

    But yeh so pumped for the Red Wedding. Could see it coming in the book though. Catelyn mentions that he has to eat and drink to get guest status so many times. Grey wind is getting shitty, and then the chapters start getting really short between Arya and Catelyn. Felt sick and my heart was pounding the entire time reading it

    Yeah I think it was telegraphed in the books a fair bit. But you never really guess how bad it would be.

    Always thought Arya getting axed was the bigger shock. Never saw that coming.

    I definitely felt it more from the wedding than Arya.
    Mainly because I was still blindly optimistic that Arya would be okay, I remember talking to my brother going "He could have hit her with the blunt bit and just knocked her out"
    And him telling me that she was dead, he was reading FfC at the time so he's a cunt for lying to me.

    The red wedding was the collapse of everything the story had started about though. Through it all you were hoping/expecting the north to win and that just got shattered.
     
  12. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Yeh for sure. Thinking about it though it makes sense... Robb didnt even want anything other than to have his family back and revenge for his dad.

    Are we allowed to talk about ADWD in this thread ftr?
     
  13. Tartmaster AJ James

    No, because I haven't read it yet :ninja:
     
  14. Roaddogg AJ Izett

    be interesting to see how non book readers react to it.

    I had to re read it 3 or 4 times I was that shocked at it.

    I don't think the show will lose much ratings, but will be interesting to see if there is a drop, or even if they'll be that into it, as roose Bolton isn't that big of a character and id bet most non book readers wouldn't even know who he is and so how much would they care that hes involved in it and such
     
  15. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Me and you can. Because we are gun enough to have read them.

    So, do you think Jon is dead. Or is he "in" Ghost?

    Don't read the white bit if you haven't read DWD.
     
  16. Roaddogg AJ Izett

    nah hes not dead especially if he really is a targaryen

    in white obv

    White Text:

    Yeh I read that he could be Rhaegar's bastard and not Ned's. Which would be awesome... I think he'll be saved by someone. He still had alot of allies there. Might just be wishful thinking on my part but I recon it could be another Arya situation.

    Have to lol at the Quentyn Martell story line too

    I actually really fucking rage at Dany. With the Quentyn thing. Oh look here's your perfect chance to go back to Westeros with an entire army with you to join up with one of the seven big houses.

    Nah lets stick around in a city where everybody hates me because I feel sorry for all the slave kids ffs. Oh btw I don't like you and the agreement between our families isn't valid anymore because it doesn't suit me to marry you when I want to fuck some sellsword with blue hair.

    Bitch isn't even a good queen either. You were a slave, you get to take as much of your former masters belongings as "payment", no need to pay him/her back for the food, clothing, shelter. You were a masters son, your mother got raped by slaves, you father and brother were murdered? Sorry hard luck fuck off.

    Stupid cunt.
     
  19. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    I like that. It's realistic because she's growing into the role. Would be shit if she suddenly became the best queen ever and made all the correct decisions. She's trying to stick by what she believes and is learning as she goes along.

    I keep coming into this thread hoping to actually discuss the books. :(
