Game of Thrones [SPOILER ALERT]

haha okay guys, i will take this build up and wait for that Boom. I just felt the previous episode was a little boring considering how much of a firecracker the initial episodes in the season were.
 
I've just finished reading A Storm of Swords. Brilliant book but I'm a bit gutted that I know what's going to happen in the TV show now.

Just started on A Feast for Crows. Not really feeling it so far..
 
What is better, spartacus or games of thrones? have not watched any of them so far thinking of which one to watch
 
Last episode just showed that GRRM is a bad TV writer. If it was not already established with ''The pointy end''. Sadly, the D&D critics will never recognize that. Guess it's hype to be a book purist, no matter what the book is.

Never watched Spartacus. but it has a 8.7 ranking on IMDB compared to GOT's ranking of 9.4.

Personally it's between GOT & Breaking Bad for the title of best TV show ever made.

game of thrones is getting very boring, only the first season was thrilling the entire season, the GOT guys are taking this series way too slow, need 20 episodes instead of 10
 
the books were way better. A storm of swords is awesome but the tv series is just not up to the mark this year. too slow, uneccessary nudity, and not enough action. The book had much more going on and surprisingly fast paced. Oh well will wait for the red wedding!

More people seem to be up in arms about the repeated Theon torture scenes than the nudity. A Storm of Swords is one of the best books I've ever read. An absolute masterpiece.

GoT is mini LOTR with more decentralized plot. You're gonna be left on your own to decide who are the good ones. Spartacus is crap.
 
Please don't compare Spartacus with GoT! Spartacus is also good but GoT is tuning out to be a legend
 
Another transition episode with no real action. Too many things happening in one episode i felt. Cersei put both the Tyrel siblings in their place, gotta love her dominant attitude sometimes, proper Lannister!

Amazing scenes at Dragonstone between Stannis-Davos and Mellisandre-Gandry. :p

And well, Ser Piggy finally got one, a real big one! :akhtar

Spartacus for me. While I like GoT, there is just too much going on and too many subplots and characters to keep track of. It starts feeling a bit 'disconnected' after a while. Breaking Bad is better than both IMO.

I'd rate my favourite shows as something along the lines of:
Breaking Bad
Spartacus
Dexter
The Walking Dead
GoT
Supernatural
Californication
 
Game of Thrones

your brother is your father in law--- grandma tyrell ...haha ...

Episode was great...and loved tyrion...

I think I havent hated any TV character more than joffrey...credit to the actor potraying though.

Spartacus is just dumb, sex and blood, story is way too shallow

Perhaps, to someone who isn't into Roman history. While not 100% accurate, I didn't find the story to be that shallow at all. Certainly a better alternative than a bunch of fragmented mini-stories.

Not really. Complex story lines are better suited to movies, ala LOTR. Turning it into a series means that there are lots of scenes that are just there to fill air time.

You don't make any sense, each to it's own, Spartacus is your typical dumb fantasy drama, nothing much to it.
 
No need to get so defensive. You have your opinion, I have mine.
 
Game of Thrones

I was just stating a fact, nothing defensive about it.
 
Not to be pedantic, but facts are something you can prove. You were stating your opinion. /end
 
Re: Game of Thrones

Spartacus is basically an extended music video. Soft core porn with slowed down action scenes.

With the occasional word here and there.

Thoroughly entertaining though don't get me wrong.

But don't pretend that it is something it's not. Even itself knows what it is and leaves it at that.
 
So only that dagger can kill white walkers? Then why did that dumb f leave dagger there? No book spoilers please.

Especially to someone who is into Roman history.


No episode next week, guys :'(

I had a hunch you don't read much...

Of course I do, I'm smarter than nearly everyone on PP, especially you.

I've just watched the first half of the latest episode. All I have to say is.....Team Stannis!

Oh yeah, learn some forum etiquette, there's no need to triple post. :)

Sadly, I used to go to fora which merge the double and triple posting so it's a habit which, it seems, is not hurting anyone but you.

It would have been funny if Sam named the baby ''Jon, that's the best name I know'' :p

Is it sad that I set my alarm for 6:00 on a Monday morning so I have time to pull down a 720p rip before I go to work? Actually don't answer that.

Has anyone else read the books btw? I've started 'A Feast for Crows', but I'm struggling to get into it.
 
I have. And I can understand why you don't like it,
No old character to get into
 
Bad news. There is no GoT next week. today's episode was pretty good.second or third best for this season for me
 
Hopefully by that time Canal+ finally catchup because i dont want to see every episode in English.
 
Btw, it was nice to see the Khaleesi.....showing off a little. :p
 
I liked the scene where the drunk imp talks down to Joffrey on the wedding table. It's always fun to see Joffrey's impotent rage :))) , now when is this bugger going to die, been waiting for 2 years now.

And what the hell happened to John Snuh and his wildling troupe, do they plan to assault Castle Black in next season :20: ? How many more episodes will they stretch it for?

Depends on the laws of your country. In SA it is legal to download for personal use, but illegal to share (i.e. selling, uploading, etc.) within the country.
 
good episode i really thought someone was gonna save poor sansa from the marriage
 
I am seriously developing a crush on Nathalie Emmanuel, aka Missandei!

She is gorgeous!
 
Charles Dance, the danish one, Alfie Allen,... A really good cast, I must say.

Jon Snow, Shae and Chaplin are the ones who are not as good :/

Oh and Richard Something, the king in the north.
 
Loved the latest episode. Sansa is becoming a bit boring like Skyler white hope she gets better. Stannis is getting better, quickly developing as one of my favorite character. Missed John snuh, did not miss Theon.
 
Sansa is lucky to marry Tyrion! Tyrion is the best character out there. Pragmatic, yet ethical
 
I want to read the books and break all the suspense! But unable to do that. In a fix!
 
Both Alfie Allen and Richard Madden are brilliant, as well as Iwan Rheon, among young men.
