Really not a fan of how they did the moon door scene though.


What was wrong with it? Are you talking from a book readers point of view?

I felt this season really needed that episode. Miles better than the others this season, especially in how well-written it was.

More of that please.

It's far more dramatic in the book as Sansa loses a shoe through the moon door

:P

The revelation about Lyssa poisoning Jon Arryn at Baelish's instruction happens just prior to him shoving her out. Also he says 'Only Cat'.


It has more impact in the book as he realises she could undo all his plans with her loose tongue and that is obviously part of his reason for killing her.

Interesting. That way seems a bit more spontaneous on Littlefingers part. Was there an implication that the way it happened on the TV show, was that he intended that whole scene to pan out exactly that way?

The scene with Sansa and spaz-kid is the single worst acted scene in all 4 seasons.

Great episode though. Dat Dinklage :datass:

Third now. That guy is an utter beast.

Another fantastic episode. However, again, Dany and Nightwatch sections could be left out and it wouldn't matter..

From a simple Health & Safety point of view, that Moon door is a right no-no.

You're entitled to. The prevailing opinion is that this season has been great. Not sure what it's missing for you tbh.

Well, the prevailing opinion (among its fans) seems to be that GoT is a classic TV series - which I also disagree with. It's got nothing on the Sopranos and other genuinely great shows where all the characters have room to develop, etc.

It's quite flawed, on the whole I think. With occasional strong segments + a wonderful turn by Dinklage.

But I definitely feel the episodes during the first half of S4 were rather sloppily put together. At least the last one actually flowed quite well.

This is the reason I don't really post much in this thread - I can tell on this forum at least, the GoT thread is generally a thread for fans of the show. Other places I frequent it's a bit more half&half than here and I can get into discussing the shows weaknesses a bit more.

But I run the risk of coming across a bit of a tit trying to do that here, so I won't go on about it too much. ;)

Coreopsis you are literally the devil spawn of a flabbergasted, paedophilic goat and Goebbel's spunk-twatted, herniated foster mother. Cock off you jizz-gargling rumble banana split.

Not really obviously. There's very little point in arguing with Denny, he's right and you're wrong whether it's GoT, LoTR or ferret arse coffee.
