A Game of Thrones - Page 30

Two parts, one in each of the last two episodes, were really troubling.

Also, I'm REALLY hoping this doesn't turn into a zombie apocalypse ...

They're not Romero-style zombies, like in Walking Dead, WWZ, and 28 X Later. Those are more like an environmental hazard than an enemy; wandering aimlessly and spreading like (and via) a plague.

These are more like the original Voodoo concept of a zombie - corpses raised for a deliberate purpose by necromancers. They are an enemy army, and fight with purpose.

They have little in common with the recent popular zombies other than appearance.

Is anyone else who played Skyrim expecting zombie-dragons?

There are some on Youtube who think they see such a silhouette in the clouds in a few frames from the Hardhome episode.

Nice - I haven't gotten that in something like 7-9 years. Good times

I can't youtube at the moment, but I can guess from context what that was... Try searching for "game of thrones possible ice dragon sighting".

lumberjim · 06-09-2015, 11:56 PM

Nah. Rick roll.

I phrased it poorly... I guessed it was a rick roll from the context, and then suggested the search term for the real video.

BD generously offered to let me share her H B O G O connection after learning that we don't have any way to watch and therefore discuss the recent happenings in GoT, so now Twil and I don't have to wait for the dvd release of the current season.

I've clicked on the last post icon to take me here, then immediately scrolled the screen to hide all the posts here. People at work are bursting to talk about WTF just happened??!! and Twil's reported the same thing. She said one person has just decided to stop watching, having been so shocked/horrified/scandalized/disappointed/I don't even.

So.

I'm avoiding this thread to the best of my ability until we're caught up. But you guys keep putting it at the top of the new posts list.

BigV:

0. Put on your internet condom (adblock, security essentials,, etc).
1. Go here http://watch-series-tv.to/serie/game_of_thrones
2. Click on the episode you want to watch
3. Click on the server (Gorillavid / vidto.me / novamov / etc).
4. Click "click here to play".

If at any point some part of your mind is wondering about the questionable ethics, just tell yourself you are protesting against Emilia Clarke's decision and will go back to buying HBO once it's revoked...

it · 06-10-2015, 01:32 PM

Does anyone else have a problem with that btw?
Hypothetically she's more authentic to the character from the book now, except HBO squeezed so much nudity out of her that every time she does the Hollywood move of holding on to the blanket my mind goes "wtf? that's so not like her..." only to then remember "oh right the actress renegotiated her deal", completely shattering the immersion. This is about as bad as if Sophie Turner decided she's an exhibitionist and demanded the exact opposite deal.

Happy Monkey · 06-10-2015, 01:49 PM

A problem with one actress on GoT not having more nude scenes?

I mean, if she did have more nude scenes, I wouldn't close my eyes, but actually having a problem with an actress not being nude?

No.
