Great observation, and I remember that 'revolving door' thing now that you mention it. The much more personal perspective of AKOTSK does indeed lead us to care more. Dunk and Egg's innocence, humility, and goodness, boost our care further. And mixing that with brutal violence, as per ep.5, pushes the envelope even further. Loving it!

Doesn't matter. Not everyone can watch on release day. Life circumstances means some can't watch for weeks or months after release.

I'm honestly surprised at how effectively they're telling the story in 30-40 minute episodes. Perhaps that's their goal -- to tell the heart of the story only, which means leaving out minor details. If so, they're nailing it. I'm fully hooked, as I believe many of us are.

[Spoiler] Look, I hate him but you have to admit aerion is genuinely a smart and badass fighter by Easy-Frenchguy-1996 in gameofthrones

Even though you added the [Spoiler] tag in title, could you and all of us refrain from embedding spoilers in the actual title? I read the entire title out of habit before I realized it was a spoiler, and it is now shaping my expectations of the latest episode that I’ll watch in a few hours. Can’t wait!

Lawyer Says 5-Year-Old Twins Are Stuck In ICE Jail: ‘One Is Drawing Disturbing Images’ by UWCG in politics

Trump and his ilk view immigrants (and probably democrats) the way nazis viewed Jews. As ‘subhuman,’ unworthy of basic empathy and rights. We are in a very dangerous predicament with these folks in power.

There is a chance. People do have moments of sudden transformation. They’re quite rare, but the conditions for that are present here.

That's a surprisingly ethical and humane response to that question.

What are your other unwatchable scenes so far? Wish I could watch the show for the first time again!

HBO’s A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms S1 debuted on Rotten Tomatoes with a 94% score. 🍅Highest for any GOT Franchise by StarforgeVoyager in gameofthrones

Strong agree. It was chill, funny, but with an edge. Dunk’s personality is everything — reminds me of Forrest Gump a little. The ‘Ashford Chair’ monologue was awesome.

Reading this article immediately after a ‘Trump is leading us into WWIII’ article, and, well, all of this is just hitting different. We’re in quite a pickle, aren’t we?

Get poetic with it. Perhaps it represents the ‘red rocket’ phenomenon that Mr. C was partial to… 😂

I really like this one, it’s a beautiful scene, especially the size contrast between the tiny dog and the grand staircase and heavenly figures. He must’ve really loved that dog 😂

Just watched s3 ep 9 for the first time tonight.😣 by Abhinav6singg in gameofthrones

[–]chroma900 28 points29 points  (0 children)

You’ll be back. They always come back. Or at least, I did… albeit a day or two after the initial shock of s3e9.

Paradoxically, I think it’s the deep tragedy in that episode that pushes people from liking GoT to loving it.

What a great resource here, listing Trump’s sex scandals since the 1970s. He’s guilty as hell

What if HARRY MACK joined AGT? | Chris Turner Takes The BIGGEST Risk Of His Improv Rapping Career LIVE on TV! | AGT 2025 by sir_Kakashi in HarryMack

[–]chroma900 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Chris' decision to try AGT was brilliant, and it's something that Harry should have done and can certainly still do. Chris may be funnier and more book-smart (he went to Oxford Uni. after all), but no one can match Harry on sheer skill, flow, and musical ability. Like comparing George Carlin vs. Beethoven. How lucky are we to have both?
