The Game of Thrones OFFICIAL thread

about drogo vs the witch

Spoiler

the book is really vague, probably intentionally so

witch says don’t take off the bandages

  • drogo takes off the bandages

witch says don’t take wine or milk of the poppy

  • drogo does anyway

he goes against prescription and dies. might have ended differently, probably not.

she probably wanted him to die, but it’s clear drogo wasn’t taking doctor’s orders. but then the orders were probably a lie?

witch was using reverse psychology, nahmean

Dance with Dragons was apparently sent to 180 German residents. A chapter-by-chapter plot review is already up. Spoilers abound on the interwebs.

OMFG its out!!! YES YES YES YES

i wonder if i can avoid spoilers

i don’t want a repeat of that “snape killed dumbeldore” shit that happened back in the day

im only on page 482 of GoT… long way to go… avoiding spoilers can be really hard sometimes…

Going to start watching this as soon as i catchup on Trueblood…

If you’re planning on watching it on HBOGO, then you should start sooner than later. I think they are taking it offline sometime this month.

In the show, he pretty much is raping her. I think the show is kind of an alternate character interpretation for Drogo (among others), and it tones down what little niceness he had and kind of tones up the asshole bandit side.

Which is still worth it to get to see him rip out somebody freaking tongue.

Well, they show his soft-side towards the end of the season. Dany and Drogo are deeply attached to one-another, and it shows.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Spoiler

Can’t believe Sean Bean’s character is dead!!

What happened to the sensei?? I didn’t see his head on a spike or did I miss something??

That is true, I wasn’t trying to say he was a villain or anything.

Syrio? He never gets mentioned again in the show or the books that I recall?

Really? That’s so random, we get teased with an epic sword fight about to begin between Syrio and Sandor but we can only assume Sandor was victorious because he shows up in later scenes unharmed (which I find impossible if the pair really did fight).

Syrio is never mentioned again

Its assumed he doesn’t survive

it wasn’t sandor that syrio fought, if i recall

I’m just wondering. Why didn’t Syrio pick up another damn sword!

Joffrey gonna get his, man. He gonna get straight fucked…it’s just a question of by whom.

I thought the same thing when I saw that scene. There’s a freaking sword right by your feet!

Waaaaaay better than Feast.

at least up to ffc

[details=Spoiler]
I can’t remember where it was said, but I agree with whoever said it that every decision Dany makes is dumb. Jon I respect, but his choices are fucking rough-- and he doesn’t get bailed out all the time by people trying to suck his (dragon) cock.[/details]

QFT … he should of picked up all of the swords and went into bee mode. But did he actually die?? I’m hoping he escaped somehow.

Did anyone finish dance yet? :frowning:
