Joffrey is a dick.

Oh hey - we're talking about this now? OK, but I haven't watched the first episode of season 2 year so no spoilers. I really want to see if Bran grows wings and learns to fly like he does in the books.

I just finished downloading it and Tabitha and I will be watching it tomorrow or Wednesday. PUMPED.

Re: Game of Thrones and other TV shenanigans
 

Yeah I figured since it just came out that people might not have watched it yet so I just left it at the customary "Joffrey is a dick!" Which he is.

If anyone needs it, I could livestream the episode sometime.

Season 2 Episode 1 was pretty good. A lot of set up without excitement, but they hit the right notes. Peter Dinklage still owns this show.

They changed the part with Melisandre and Cresson.

Re: Game of Thrones and other TV shenanigans
 

Yep. Makes sense though. In a book, you can easily introduce new characters with paragraphs - if you started the show with that scene, you'd lose people who haven't read. They had to rearrange it and given the rather slow start to A Clash of Kings, that interplay is the biggest moment. Have to close with it.

However, I am concerned that the grouping of Stanis, Melisandre and Davos is going to be utterly dominated by the Melisandre character, rather than leaving her as a sort of mysterious person Davos doesn't really have access to for the first little bit. I think they are going to build her character a lot more in the tv show to introduce the Lord of Light/Fire Religion earlier as it has a lot to play further in the story. It'll weaken the impact of Stanis on the "tv" story.

Stannis actor is bad choice. Doesn't look like Stannis at all. Everything else was fine in the episode I guess. Aside from the baby killing and sex which wasn't needed at all and was pretty stupid.

Re: Game of Thrones and other TV shenanigans
 

The sex is always needed in the episodes. The child killing though, Joffrey be a harsh bitch. I'm expecting a lot from Stannis after what I've heard about him.

The Jamie and Robb moment was my favourite. Grey Wind!

Also the second episode is already out, 'twas awesome.

I could really do with some links to watch the new episodes. Just got my computer back after five weeks and HBO gyped out on me when I tried to watch it.

Re: Game of Thrones and other TV shenanigans
 

I don't know any links aside from torrents that you could watch it directly from mate, after they closed down Megaupload it ruined everything for us.

I could always Livestream them someday, or if you want just send you the torrent links if you can do that.

Re: Game of Thrones and other TV shenanigans
 

Yeah, megaupload will be sorely missed.

Came across this, not sure if it's any good yet.

Re: Game of Thrones and other TV shenanigans
 

A good chunk of links don't work, but some do. And since Game of Thrones will take months to get here, brb, watching with bucket of popcorn.

I just had to come here and say that anyone who read the books will find ep2 blasphemous. Well, I guess they always do these kinds of things to books. Piss on them. It might be a good series no matter what, but it's horse crap compared to the quality of the book.
