a lot of great scenes, but I especially liked: Jamie/Bronn sparring, Jamie visiting Tyrion, and Jamie/Brienne the sword and Podrick scenes in particular
I think the Great Other scene had the most impact on me! It was hinted at only vaguely in the books, so seeing it onscreen was something completely new and completely disturbing! XD
Even if last week did sour it a bit for me the Jaime/Brienne scene was lovely and Pod is brilliant he has such a lovable face.
I liked the North of the Wall stuff as well especially as it was a change from the books so it was cool to see - like literally cool damn that was cold and icy.
OMG! What happened to the baby! That was a creepy scene, it totally deserves to be on the poll but I can see how peeps would uncomfortable voting for it since it seemed like we just watched a baby get frozen solid? Is that what happened? I don't know, it was crazy. I was both going "I don't want to watch this" and "but I have to know what happens, maybe it will be alright after all..." NOPE. Aww.
Yeah! I know there were hints about Crastor's sons being the White Walkers and Melisandre calls the Others the Great Other's cold children... or is it the children of the cold? Either way I never saw it going down like it played out on screen!
There were so many scenes - that one was the next on the list - I'm counting that as "other"... The baby gets turned into a White Walker - at least that was my take on it....
Jaime giving Brienne the gifts. And Tyrion/Jaime and Bron Jaime. I hated Jaimes scene last week, so it was great to have some great scenes this week. And seeing Ghost again - yay! I have been waiting for that.
So many great scenes! But I chose Jaime's gifts for Brienne, especially Pod. Brienne and Pod are my favourite pairing in the books so I hope the writers won't mess it up! But close Littlefinger/ Sansa scenes, Jaime/Tyrion's talk and Margeary and Tommen's secret meeting!
Every scene was amazing, but Natelie Doormer killed it! I hope Margaery hangs around for a long time. Jamie and Brienne were very sweet, and I loved Pod. Olenna kicks ass, I'm glad they adressed the subject right away and didn't let is become a who did it nest of theorys for long. Also loved Danny, but I always do, I do believe right now she needs to prove strong and keeping people she threw down arround would bring possibility of trouble so I get that she didn't show mercy, I do think she'll consider it more if she does manage to take the iron throne.
It was so hard to choose one--so many memorable scenes this time! The walker and the baby was definitely the creepiest, but I really loved Jaime and Tyrion's meeting, and the Brienne, Jaime and Pod scene. Grey Worm's recruiting of the slaves was quite memorable too.
I thought dead bodies got turned into White Walkers, that's why the wildlings are so hardcore about burning the dead. Even if they killed the baby right there and then turned it, wouldn't it still be in the body of a baby? That seems kinda useless.
The dead are reanimated by the White Walkers turning them into wights that have glowing blue eyes..Wights are lumbering normally nearly brain-dead lumbering zombie-like creatures. Very different from White Walkers which are intelligent and move faster than humans, supernaturally so.
There is no real information in the books for this, but I assume the Night's King (WW with the horned crown) uses the male babies Craster leaves and turns them into White Walkers (not wights).
He does not kill them before turning them into White Walkers. His touch transforms them as shown by the baby's eyes going from human to the blue ice of a White Walker.
Since the babies are not dead they probably still age. Possibly even at an accelerated rate (just a theory). OR they just have a very long life span and wait for the babies to grow up.
The legends of the Night's King is something like 8,000 years old. So if the horned helmet White Walker guy is in fact the original Night's King.... He is very old indeed!
Agreed. I feel dirty liking him so much though when he gives off the creepy pedo vibes with Sansa though and yet... I can't look away! NO! I'm a horrible person! lol
The Brienne/Pod excursion will be fun. I enjoyed that thread in the books.
That was messed up at the end though. Showing the baby basically getting turned into one of The Others. I don't know that I care for the Bran detour (The books didn't take him through Craster's keep). I guess that wasn't Coldhands in the promo after all.
It's called "other," dude: the space for people to add their own. And if you actaully read the comments thread, you'd see that the poll poster says that that scene almost made the list.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Tied between Littlefinger's "everything" when asked by Sansa what he wants and Jaime's nobility as seen with Brienne. My two favorite characters.
ReplyDeletea lot of great scenes, but I especially liked: Jamie/Bronn sparring, Jamie visiting Tyrion, and Jamie/Brienne the sword and Podrick scenes in particular
ReplyDeleteThe White Walker scene at the end. For some reason, it just really creeped me out. Maybe because it was a new born?
ReplyDeleteUmm the white walkers turning Craster's children into Others!!
ReplyDeleteI think the Great Other scene had the most impact on me!
ReplyDeleteIt was hinted at only vaguely in the books, so seeing it onscreen was something completely new and completely disturbing! XD
I also loved Jaime giving Brienne the gifts!
Jaime fan like myself eh? XD
ReplyDeleteThe part where it ended and stopped completely screwing up the story. Sorry, I am mad.
ReplyDeleteWhat LF said was so true!
ReplyDeleteHis motives have always been in question because wanting "Everything" seems too simple for such a complex man!
GHOST! Poor baby's locked in a cage... but we finally got to see him, yay!
ReplyDeletePoor Ghost indeed, but at least he's gonna have some fun next week. Makes me wonder how the **** did they manage to capture him though.
ReplyDeleteEven if last week did sour it a bit for me the Jaime/Brienne scene was lovely and Pod is brilliant he has such a lovable face.

ReplyDeleteThat scene was stunning and the first real surprise for me since I've read the books.
ReplyDeleteYeah!
ReplyDeleteI know there were hints about Crastor's sons being the White Walkers and Melisandre calls the Others the Great Other's cold children... or is it the children of the cold? Either way I never saw it going down like it played out on screen!

ReplyDeleteDefinitely the white walker scene at the end.
ReplyDeleteJaime giving Brienne the gifts. And Tyrion/Jaime and Bron Jaime. I hated Jaimes scene last week, so it was great to have some great scenes this week.
ReplyDeleteAnd seeing Ghost again - yay! I have been waiting for that.
As usual, hard to choose. I went with the Baelish scene, mainly because I loved the line, "A man with no motive is a man nobody suspects."
ReplyDeleteSo many great scenes! But I chose Jaime's gifts for Brienne, especially Pod. Brienne and Pod are my favourite pairing in the books so I hope the writers won't mess it up!
ReplyDeleteBut close Littlefinger/ Sansa scenes, Jaime/Tyrion's talk and Margeary and Tommen's secret meeting!

Littlefinger always has a great dialog. The actor portraying him is doing a fantastic job.
ReplyDeleteBook Margaery was an ok character, TV Margaery is awesome. She does nail it every time. Loved her scenes aswell.
ReplyDeleteIt was so hard to choose one--so many memorable scenes this time! The walker and the baby was definitely the creepiest, but I really loved Jaime and Tyrion's meeting, and the Brienne, Jaime and Pod scene. Grey Worm's recruiting of the slaves was quite memorable too.
ReplyDeleteWhoever made the poll... c'mon... where's the walker scene at the end in the poll? How can that not make the cut? :(
ReplyDeleteYeah, then I think the credit goes to Doormer, she's an amazing actress.
ReplyDeleteI thought dead bodies got turned into White Walkers, that's why the wildlings are so hardcore about burning the dead. Even if they killed the baby right there and then turned it, wouldn't it still be in the body of a baby? That seems kinda useless.

Oh, okay. That makes a lot more sense! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I feel dirty liking him so much though when he gives off the creepy pedo vibes with Sansa though and yet... I can't look away! NO! I'm a horrible person! lol
ReplyDeleteI thought the same but figured the creepy vibes with the baby put them off of wanting it on the poll.
ReplyDeleteThe Brienne/Pod excursion will be fun. I enjoyed that thread in the books.

ReplyDeleteSame!
ReplyDeleteI guess you can call me dudette! :)
ReplyDeleteUnless i haven't watched the episode i don't read the comments before i post my comment.
