Q: In your opinion, what would Pod be doing if he lived in the present, the year 2013?
Daniel Portman: Let's be honest he'd probably be selling crack.

squealing. jaime and brienne are my bbs.
idk why i kind of thought they would rush through their story and skip out on the good bits.
early rip for the bathtub scene.
jaimelannister 31st-Jan-2013 01:57 am (UTC)
they seem to like Jaime (see: increased amount of screen time in S2 with new scenes written for him) so maybe they won't?
soavantgarde 31st-Jan-2013 02:02 am (UTC)
u will have to hold my funeral as well when the opportunity for the bath scene comes and goes, I'm afraid :'(
ivysaur 31st-Jan-2013 02:09 am (UTC)
I will rage if the bathtub scene doesn't happen. But yeah, I have a feeling I'm going to rage.

Ros tries to kill Melisandre
Ros goes with Talisa and Catelyn

Shae dies early

how do you think this will happen early?

Talisa dies at the Red Wedding and it's her POV instead of Cat

I may burn my S1 boxset
wonderwomanhero 31st-Jan-2013 01:48 am (UTC)
Tyrion will prob kill her early on. Or she'll die some other way. Maybe a drunken Cersei will push her off a cliff and she'll fall to her death and be found the next day washed up on shore. Or Cersei will push her off when she's sober because she wants Sansa to suffer. idk
mattthew 31st-Jan-2013 02:06 am (UTC)

goofusgallant 1st-Feb-2013 12:39 am (UTC)

jaimelannister 31st-Jan-2013 01:57 am (UTC)
I really enjoyed AFFC, it might be my second fave after ASOS

unpopular opinion yay
klmnumbers 31st-Jan-2013 01:37 am (UTC)
I actually watched that whole Experts show. The Game of Thrones fan was cute, and the NSYNC stan was obnoxious. I think I know more about the NFL than the NFL expert...
littlehayzay 31st-Jan-2013 02:30 am (UTC)
Those Game of Thrones questions were like... basic knowledge lol I was sitting there and there was only one I didn't know. But like... who's the blind guy? SERIOUSLY. THAT'S HARD? Even the 'hardest question in the world' was easy lol

also I don't know why you'd pick an expertise like 'NFL' it's far too broad and yeah NSYNC-stan was super obnoxious 'HERE'S WAY MORE INFORMATION THAN YOU NEED WHAT UP' and then 'Treasure Island - BAM' and as soon as she said it I was so gleeful cause I knew it was wrong.

wonderwomanhero 31st-Jan-2013 01:39 am (UTC)
You know who they need on that Experts show?

cerseilannister 31st-Jan-2013 01:46 am (UTC)
lol omg. she's just doggin him the whole time.
wonderwomanhero 31st-Jan-2013 01:49 am (UTC)
I'M GONNA KILL HER AND I'M GONNA KILL U TOO

I googled this girl and apparently she got arrested several times and lives in Florida and got hella plastic surgery
hateistoodark 31st-Jan-2013 01:42 am (UTC)
Yas sounds promising
socorporatesuit 31st-Jan-2013 01:52 am (UTC)
lmao ia, or greyjoy questions
wonderwomanhero 31st-Jan-2013 01:53 am (UTC)
if they give me Team Dragonstone questions I would get them right but if they asked me questions about Jon Ho or Bran or Tyrion I'd flop.
littlehayzay 31st-Jan-2013 02:47 am (UTC)
The questions were so easy though:

'who is blind - and played by a blind actor?'
'what are the four animals of the four main houses'
'what's the title of princess in dothraki'

rly
jaimelannister 31st-Jan-2013 01:59 am (UTC)
“You caught me chastising my wife”

i hope this line stays
socorporatesuit 31st-Jan-2013 02:04 am (UTC)
yasss that line <3

i hope we get to see tommen cuddling with ser pounce and sharing his hatred of beets with loras
khlassique 31st-Jan-2013 02:08 am (UTC)
i crave some quality kitten king scenes.
jaimelannister 31st-Jan-2013 02:08 am (UTC)
SER POUNCE IS THE BEST

I stg if they cut him out :'(
soavantgarde 31st-Jan-2013 02:04 am (UTC)
I think it will, they've already gone the 'jaime teasing brienne sexually' route so it gives me hope <3
jaesis 31st-Jan-2013 02:04 am (UTC)
Ever since that ASOIAF theories post I've been reading everything I can about that Stark southron ambition theory. It's slowly consuming my life, it's so interesting.

Also, I want trailer.
socorporatesuit 31st-Jan-2013 02:04 am (UTC)
oo what is this theory?
jaesis 31st-Jan-2013 02:10 am (UTC)
This is the best thread I've read on it so far: http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/topic/57647-southron-ambitions-who-is-maester-warlyss-father/

Basically, it's a theory that there was a whole plot to unseat the Targaryens way before Robert's Rebellion and that the plot was orchestrated by the Starks, Tullys, Arryns, etc. They were supposedly pushed on to this by the maester of the old lord of Winterfell and the Citadel who also had something against the Targaryens and did not want Rhaegar to fulfill the three heads of the dragon prophecy. That's only like half of it, I haven't finished the thread yet.
mattthew 31st-Jan-2013 02:08 am (UTC)
i love asoiaf thories

LAY IT ON ME
jaimelannister 31st-Jan-2013 02:09 am (UTC)
yes theories are fun!
ivysaur 31st-Jan-2013 02:13 am (UTC)
There's stuff other than that one essay? Link?
miakun 31st-Jan-2013 02:06 am (UTC)
Maybe this season will be better since I'll be going in with much lower expectations to only love some things and know they'll destroy others.
khlassique 31st-Jan-2013 02:08 am (UTC)
i just want my queen sansa :(

i want so little but it's apparently too much

but i'm psyched for Jaime and Brienne's Worst Road Trip Ever
shift_from_here 31st-Jan-2013 02:09 am (UTC)
Boo! They need to release a fricken trailer.
johnjie 31st-Jan-2013 02:25 am (UTC)
There needs to be a trailer now

I am really excited for Jaime and Brienne Go To King's Landing, I hope they keep all Jaime's trolling in.

I am, however, terrified that they will
replace Cat with Talisa or just have Talisa in general at the Red Wedding. I can think of nothing worse.
simplychristina 31st-Jan-2013 03:01 am (UTC)
As to your last point, the fact that dreaded character X will likely be there is giving me bits o'rage.
johnjie 31st-Jan-2013 03:08 am (UTC)
Ugh ikr, if she takes away in any part from
Catelyn's anguish (or heaven forbid, replaces her altogether)
I will rage
goofusgallant 1st-Feb-2013 12:41 am (UTC)
I'm pretty sure it was confirmed that she will be at the RW.
jaesis Also I really, really hope this isn't Joe Dempsie's last season31st-Jan-2013 02:32 am (UTC)
jaimelannister Re: Also I really, really hope this isn't Joe Dempsie's last season31st-Jan-2013 02:35 am (UTC)
he should appear in s5 a tiny bit
jaesis Re: Also I really, really hope this isn't Joe Dempsie's last season31st-Jan-2013 02:42 am (UTC)
Maybe, but I expect it to last for like two minutes at the most. :( After that, who knows?
m_pendulum 31st-Jan-2013 02:41 am (UTC)
I'm going to try and pretend that I don't know thing when I watch this season. I just want to see my favs and enjoy the talent that is Sophie Turner. Jamie & Brienne ftw. I am half excited for the Arya and Sandor adventure, but knowing how "weak" his character is compared to the book just makes me frustrated because he's supposed to be a fucked up person and they don't really show it that well (because that would mean giving Sansa screen time and exploring her character and we can't have that can we oh nooo).
love_keiko 31st-Jan-2013 05:25 am (UTC)
tv!hound makes me want to claw my fuckin' eyes out.

he's creepy but he's also too damn nice. he's appropriately fucked up in the books and they're sugar coating him on the show just as bad as tyrion.

i will forever hate D&W for giving his back story reveal to littlefinger.

Edited at 2013-01-31 05:25 am (UTC)
m_pendulum 31st-Jan-2013 05:29 am (UTC)
All that has always pissed me off. i know I'm in the minority here because I am a Sandor fan, but what I enjoy about his character is that he is legitimately fucked up and the book doesn't try to sugar coat it or reduce it. Yes, he may have had a very fucked up life, but he makes his own choices to be the man he is. That's how you write a good complex character.

He and Tyrion have been let down so much by D&D taking so much about what made them grey away.

Girl, don't even get me started. That is such a character defining scene, I don't know what they were thinking.
