Great ep. Poor Theon lol

[adenhart34]

Just a little clarification needed: Who were the guys who captured Jaime Lannister and the Amazon woman? They are loyal to the Starks?

 

How about the guys who captured Stark's little girl and her 2 friends? What is their deal?

 

In the books it was the Brave Companions... but in the TV show its by one of Roose Bolton's men, Locke. Roose Bolton is one of Rob Stark's bannermen, his sigil is that of the flayed man which looks like a red X. He is the one who delivers the bad news to Rob and promises to find Jaime ("I have my best hunter after him"). Roose Bolton is currently holding Harrenhal while Rob took the majority of their forces back to Riverrun for Hoster Tullys funeral.

 

As for who has Arya... rewatch this scene:

Ned Stark sent Beric Dondarrion to kill The Mountain because of his attacks against the people of the Riverlands. Tywin ordered it (in retaliation for Catelyn taking Tyrion), so Ned Stark demanded Tywin surrender himself and answer for his crimes. This effectively started the war.

 

You'll learn more about what Beric has been up to in the coming episodes.

Thought this was a bit of a weak episode.

 

I do find it funny how Harrenhal has been a bargaining chip throughout the series.  I can see Caitlyn some how stopping Rob from taking Harrenhal from Little Finger.

Odd way to end last nights episode.  I was expecting another cliff hanger ending.  If only they showed Tyrion breaking the news to Sansa.

[nate]

Another mediocre episode.  The Hound having Arya could be interesting.  Knew Jamie would go after his new woman.  I expect her to arrive in Kings Landing some day and get killed by Circei.

I'm just waiting for episode 9.

Game of Thrones has to be the most difficult show to follow that I have ever watched. There must be at least 2 different storylines going on right now. You really need to pay attention, and remember things, because they pop back up later on.

 

A friend of mine always hears me talking about it when it is on, and tried to start watching it a few weeks go. He gave up.

[HaloMilliVanilli]

All caught up.  Now I've got to wait.  I fuc*ing hate waiting.  I was hoping The Kingslayer would've pushed Locke into the pit with the bear.

I think Jaime is gonna get his hand back, somehow.

[HaloMilliVanilli]

GoT is interesting in how they are able to have the viewer feel sympathy for some of the worst characters.  I want Jamie to regain his hand and slay Locke and a few others because he stood up for/protected Briann (?), but he just strangled his cousin to escape and threw Brandon out of a window to his potential death.  I also kinda feel bad for Theon Greyjoy now that he's being tortured, even though he committed some atrocities at Winterfell. 

 

I'm also beginning to wonder if Kalissi isn't going to become an issue as she gains more power.

[Schildog]

talisa's ass is very wonderful. 

[HaloMilliVanilli]

Why no Thrones tonight?  Anyone?

[nate]

Dunno.  Last week they said "in two weeks" at the end of the episode.

[NJHalo]

Holiday weekend, so they thought viewership would be down.

 

Tried to watch the Liberace movie instead. had to shut it off

turning it off probably saved you from a severe mancard violation and lengthy suspension.

So you're telling us that watching Michael Douglas and Matt Damon making out is not your thing?

[NJHalo]

Seeing Matt Damon's thong tan line is what put me over the edge.

[nate]

Some cool facts about the women of GoT.  Make sure to hit load more images at the bottom.

Not crazy about the turn of events.  Without the Starks really you just have to root for Arya and the Dragon Lady.  The rest of the storylines are meh.  Tryian is cool too.

[NJHalo]

Agree. Oh my god what a shocker to see that happen. I expected a trap, but not that.

No one is safe

Cool that you weren't spoiled. That was the part of the book (~2002 for me) where I threw it across the room and said lots of bad words.Not an uncommon response I later found.

I'm not a twitter user but I had to go there and see the responses.The show really nailed that scene.

[Count Orlok]

The moment we've all been waiting for.

[bloodbrother]

Holy sh*t

[Chimi]

Great Youtube comments right now for the preview of the season finale.
