  1. All over Twitter atm where theres smoke?
  2. It's a, how you say, a shurprising develoopment.
  3. Thankfully Lerner seems to be true to his word by finding the best buyer possible
  4. I've always had a hard time finding a balance between accepting indignities, and wanting to inflict suffering on the offender. Fear of jail time has usually won out, but at what point do you keep taking it and risk losing your self respect and even the respect of others? The fact that I'm even wondering this pisses me off.
  5. When do you think it's justifiable to kick someone's ass?
  6. He'll end up at Chelsea or Arsenal. Unless our savior owners come riding into town on a golden chariot waving a blank checkbook at every turn and he opts for more Villa. You never know.
  7. FSG tightening up and Rodgers is probably on notice.
  8. Isn't the many face God guy not the lad who taught her how to sword fight He is that lad, but he's turned into a bit of a sanctimonious bore, not quite the renegade ninja hero he was in King's Landing He walks around like a drugged up 70s prog rocker and talks like a cross between Clement Freud and Yoda. What's he on? Bad dialogue.
  9. hicks and gillette are back.....
  10. could be done next week, for all we know
  11. So...anyone getting the sense that the show will end, allowing Martin to churn out more material, but subsequent visual material will be strictly film releases?

    Do you read?

    It's a much more interesting read than it's title suggests. Good summertime read you can finish in a weekend.
  14. There's a 71 page Benteke thread on RAWK...seems many of them don't remember the pain he has inflicted on them directly over the years. Clowns.
  15. Of all the shocking scenes, I think the rapid stabbing to the pregnant belly of Rob's wife was the most disturbing for me.

    Got me thinking about the great book "Cod"- http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/64895.Cod

    Do you read?

    Starting it now. I may have to look for that.
  18. I agree with Zatman, the Arya storyline has gone cold for me. I don't care about the two faced god and her little struggle anymore. And the abandoning of the Brienne storyline kind of deflates the whole notion of having a storyline. But despite it's flaws, it's a show that can still dazzle. The ending scenes in the last 2 episodes were awesome, in the real sense of the word.
  19. That's the point though isn't it? Showing how much he wants this and how the hunt for glory can drive even the people who appear to be "good" to do horrible things. As far as how he's been portrayed in the show, I'd say his unpredictability is a core feature of his character. Cruelty and mercy in equal measures to those he holds closest to him. And just when you think you've got him pegged, he goes and burns his daughter alive. In terms of message, if anything, it's another swipe at the stupidity and barbarity of blind faith and religion.
  20. So like the Diadora kit we had then
  21. The first episode of the entire show showed Golden Boy Lannister throw the young Stark boy out the tower window. Cruelty to youth in the show was established from the very start and has continued throughout, so as difficult as the burning of the girl was, it's not like there isn't a precedent. The show is brutal, which is probably it's greatest attraction, I'd argue.
