I mostly make stuff up.
Well, you should just take the 110 to the 105 to the 405 South and GEHOUDAHEEER.
Heh. Was just talking to Brian today about the next round of surprises coming up for non-book-readers. The series is doing a pretty dandy job of head-faking some of them, and not telegraphing others at all.
Tonight's final scene being a case where they didn't give much warning before it happened. Nice, I thought.
There was also one shot in tonight's ep that definitely felt like a wink to us who know where the Arya/Hound thread is going.
Interesting that after the recent complaints that the series is more rapey than the books, tonight we got a mention of Lollys, a notable rape victim in the books, but not in the series.
Overheard at a party, about a year from now...
"Hi, I'm George R.R. Martin."
"The guy who writes the novelizations of that HBO show? Cool!"
No way. The lesson I learned is never let the internet know which lamp you like.
/wow, there were a lot of L's in that sentence
Legal's still sorting that out.
They can also use cookies to follow your own browsing history. I looked at a certain desk lamp online two weeks ago and every website I visit is still trying to sell me that lamp.
Coming This Winter on HBO KIDZ: White Walker Babies! (aka "Craster's Bastards")
Yup. Apparently this is the first example of the series getting ahead of the books. Probably won't be the last for this season, either.
I maintain that all the above applies to the scene in question as well. And is it horrifying within the context of the story? Again, sure it is. It's the "OMG HBO you crossed a line" swooning that I don't understand. GoT has been jam-packed with murder and mayhem and cruelty and, yes, sexual assaults since day one. Based on the show so far, consensual sex seems to be a bit of a rarity in Westeros. I just don't see how this particular assault is the deal-breaker for some people. But if it is, it is.
