He was great last year, but being the guy to replace Sean Bean as the lead actor, just fantastice work, for one of the more interesting characters in the book.

    I won't dwell on it, but I don't like what they have done with Jon Snow this season or Dany.

    Next week we get the Battle of the Blackwater!!!!!!
    Blackwater is not next week.

    Really enjoyed tonight's episode, despite its slower pace than the previous few episodes. Some fantastic scenes. Still not enough Robb Stark though, which is my only serious complaint of this season. The portrayl of the war, and specifically the significance of Robb's victories and actions are not being explained or shown in this season.

      An episode without Geoffrey is a win in my book. I feel bad for the actor. I hate him so much all because of his screen character.

      This season is not really bringing it for me like the last one. I just watch waiting for the **** to hit the fan like last season. It really hasn't. The only storyline I care about right now is Jon Snow, and Arya(? Short Stark girl with Tiwynn?).

      Khaleesi and the whole Koth thing... meh

      Rob Stark and the war... they havent shown much war so meh. And they're making it too obvious that Rob is gonna catch **** for shmanging another girl while he's promised to some cow at the Gate.

      Geoffrey being an *******, its whatevs. They are still trying to get us to hate him more than we already do. I mean we hate him already, make him actually do something please?

      The paraplegic Stark and the whole Oracle raven thing, I wanted him to be a badass ruler of Winterfell...he has failed in the worst way at doing that. I dont care about him anymore. Sorry.

      Theon is an ***. I have grown to hate him but I can appreciate his storyline. It interesting to see the growth of a tyrant. I wont mind seeing him die though.

      Short Lannister has been great so far and has his older sister, Crazy Momma Lannister. This episode showing her maternal side caring for ******* Teenage Girl Stark and showing her worry for her son. That was a breath of fresh air seeing her vulnerable side. Her commentary on loving noone but your children was very interesting.

      The Receeding Hairline Baratheon guy and his Crazy Wizard girlfriend storyline seems so poorly done so far. Wonder where the hell thats going.


      And If big black guy from Koth mentions his 50 Cent story of getting to the top starting from nothing one more time I'm gonna lose it. I've counted like 9 times he's either told this story or tried to tell the story over 3 episodes. ******* it.

                Hopefully that helps a little more. I have no idea how people keep up w/ all the characters w/o having read the books. I have read all of them and still manage to forget a few.

                    You've got to be ****ing kidding me with that ending.

                    Didn't happen on-screen, not real! I'm calling a fake-out.

                      Great episode. Really enjoy what they are doing with Tywin's character who is mostly left out of the second book.

                      We need more Arya prayer time.

                          well, no, some of them just didnt appear in the show...they would have appeared long ago, but they condensed it.

                                Has anyone messed around with the GoT RPG game that came out today? I am interested in it, but I would like to hear peoples opinions of it first.

                                Edit: Just read IGN's review and they gave it a 4 (bad), given the issues they mentioned. I think I will skip this or atleast wait till it is cheaper and go the used game route.
