I'm trying to remember, I think it was Richard Morgan (he is not as good as Valente but he has good prose with some nice noir cyberpunk stuff.)

Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
First or second, second I think - it's Tyrion slapping Joffrey for refusing to pay respects after Bran's accident, iirc

Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
That's one of the very first scenes of episode two. I love that bit so much. Makes me look forward to seeing how things are going to be in book two now with Tyrion's new job.

Well, I read the books so technically I do KNOW but Peter Dinkage and Jack Gleeson are so good I may as well have no foreknowledge at all!

Joffrey is the worst kind of punk. I just HATE how he falls apart when things don't go his way. "I'M TELLING MOTHER!!!" or when he starts crying after Nymeria bites him. And yet he talks so tough and will go to any length to torment someone. Ugh.

I know he's probably 13 or 14 tops but... man, I want him to die so freaking much. Sigh.

P.S. do you all recognize him as the kid from Batman Begins?

I've gotta admit that that youtube video is weirdly hypnotic. You can quite easily sit there for ages watching the exact same 3 slaps. :p

I will ask that you explain yourself. Please do so with the clear understanding that I may decide I am angry enough to destroy all of you and raze this sickening mausoleum of fraud down to the naked rock it stands on.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

If there's one thing I've learned from Game of Thrones is that weddings are dangerous and you should not have them. Ever.

Evidence suggests that weddings are only fatal if you either are or proclaim yourself to be a king. Or are in close proximity to either.

Well that was far too quick. It should have been long and drawn out. :p

Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
Well, I might eventually be able to join you in this thread now. I fell off the bandwagon in the middle of Series 2 by forgetting to watch a couple of episodes and haven't been able to get back on it until now, when I decided to do another search for my missing episodes. I found S2E10 and S3E8, S3E10, S4E1 and S4E2, so my way ahead is clear now, I have everything I need to carry on from S2E10 right through to S4E2. All I need for a complete set is S2E4.

Meanwhile, I'll leave this video I made. The picture quality is poor, the footage I had wasn't good to begin with, and I had to shoot the monitor with my camera to get it through the copyrights. Spoilers from Series 1, I won't embed it due to the title. It's a video about
Spoiler:
Where Viserys is crowned, and Daenerys just stares off into space the whole time, and I show you what she might have been thinking. To be honest this would be more like what I was thinking when I was watching this for the first time rather than Daenerys. But Daenerys could well have been thinking this too. So we get to perhaps see what she was seeing when she was staring off into space.

The actor who played Viserys did a superb job of making me truly enjoy watching his demise due to his performance throughout the series. He deserves a lot of credit for that.

You reap what you sow. She already saved his worthless hide once when he had a whip wrapped around his neck.

Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
Probably not actually a spoiler, but this is in relation to spoilered stuff Lorric mentioned, so it's under cover.
Spoiler:
Did you know that Harry Lloyd, the actor who played Viserys, is Charles Dickens' great-great-grandson?

Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
Yeah, I'd say for sure that's no spoiler. An interesting little piece of information. :)

 
Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
I get the distinct impression now that The Targaryans of old had the same powers that the stark brothers have (a connection with their dragons as much as as the starks have a connection with their wolves. Both Dire Wolves and Dragons can not be tamed it is said). However, Daenerys seems to lack this power.

Re: Game of Thrones NO BOOK SPOILERS YOU LUNKS
True, nothing in the books or shows has really indicated that Daenerys can warg similar to the Stark children.  On the other hand I haven't really seen any indications that warging was part of the Targaryen/Valarian methodology of Dragon control.  Personally, riding on the back of a Dragon would not be my optimal time to have a out of body experience.
