I ain't trippin, them cats was bitchmade anyway. They already killed off the only real nigga on the show: Khal Drogo.

Couple boring characters outta da way. More face time for ya girl Margaery.

Man, fuck that hoe. Did that skank rip a dude's tongue out of his neck? Did that broad even make one reference to "mounting" the world like a horse and fucking it?

No. Cause that hoe ain't shit, breezy. Drogo was the fucking realest, CHURCH.

God, recently started watching this with my fiance. I've read the books so his reactions are a part of the entertainment for me.

"What's gonna happen, buddy?"
"He's not going to die, he's a main character, right? ...HOLY SHIT WHAT."

Too bad the show's going to catch up to the book soon. I wonder how that's going to go.

awww

im not going by books.. aren't they doing 2 seasons a book? arent there a shitload?

there are 5 books, this was the first season that didn't end at the end of a corresponding book, so its basically half way through book 3.

book 4 sucks, can't imagine what they're gonna do for it.

They're doing one season per book, with the exception of book three, which they are splitting into two seasons.

they are also going to combine book 4 and 5 for obvious reasons, don't know how many seasons they would get out of that, I think George said probably 2

Yeah, combining 4 and 5 into 2 seasons makes sense since both take place in the same time period, though it will be mostly book 5 content.

Hmmm... Where do you think the season break will be and what would be the "episode 9" events?

if next season, there aren't 2 hours of screen time devoted to

, i'ma be pissed.

I hope the entirety of season 4 is just

A lion still has claws

also i dunno why everyone hates on feast for crows, i liked that shit

house martell for house of the year all years

What did you enjoy most:

The problem is that the entire second half of A Storm of Swords is nonstop shitfuckery, where every chapter advances the plot in significant ways. And then, A Feast For Crows happens.

A lack of action =/= a lack of interesting content.

I'm not saying the story needs to be nonstop dragons, sieges and undead invasions, I'm saying something interesting has to happen.

The series is primarily a character-driven political thriller. I mean it has the fantastical elements and more action that your average story of that nature but the most interesting thing about the books are the characters. Almost nobody in the story is written as a black and white moral archetype and the development of nearly every character is really interesting and layered. The murdering of major characters and shocking plot twists are useful devices that keep the tension up and keep the reader engaged but for me those are very much a means to an end and the storytelling is fantastic even when it is low-key.

I just wanna take this moment to say thank you based enigma for adding the spoiler function and thank you all for using them. <3

I will say that AFFC & ADWD have a lot of interesting developments plot-wise, especially regarding new POV characters like the Martells & other Dornefolk, and the Greyjoys. But none of it really pays off by the end of either book. It all seems to be setup for The Winds of Winter, which I hope to be more akin to ACOK/ASOS in terms of plot development and pacing.
