Though I thought the delivery of "The things I do for love." felt a little flat, that may have just been the anticipation for it. The only other complaint I have was with the prologue part, two really, one, what happened to the pieces of the wildings that Wil saw in the beginning? It made a lot more sense in the books when they just appeared to be sleeping, though not moving. And, two, as others have mentioned, how can you have white walkers that aren't white?

On to the good, pretty much everything else. The actors seem very well suited for the roles, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in particular seems to get the perfect amount of arrogance for Jaime. Even the kids seem good, can't wait to see Arya's "dancing lessons."
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

No, but Jaime and Tyrion have a VERY strong sibling resemblance. Clover - 18/04/2011 06:29:00 AM 1406 Views
Joff's lips were just not pouty enough I thought, still I can't stand the sight of him, so good job *NM* djwilson300 - 18/04/2011 07:13:22 AM 640 Views

I really enjoyed it, but one thing that was distracting me... imlad - 18/04/2011 08:15:54 AM 1595 Views
So you were definitly watching it on a LCD or LED tv with 120hrtz or greater.....they are poopy djwilson300 - 18/04/2011 08:52:29 AM 1425 Views

Hard to say. Aemon - 18/04/2011 09:44:13 PM 1377 Views
Ouch.... DomA - 18/04/2011 09:59:28 PM 1325 Views

Re: I'm not an expert by any means, but I think you have that wrong. DomA - 19/04/2011 02:29:30 PM 1280 Views
As I said, you sound like you know what you're talking about. Aemon - 19/04/2011 03:53:34 PM 1415 Views
I've gotta butt in scalius - 19/04/2011 04:46:28 PM 1227 Views
The more, the merrier. Aemon - 19/04/2011 05:26:29 PM 1443 Views
Poopy was kinda strong language. It is a matter of taste and Aemon is my new favorite. djwilson300 - 19/04/2011 06:25:15 PM 1309 Views

Re: As I said, you sound like you know what you're talking about. DomA - 20/04/2011 12:24:25 AM 1229 Views
this whole discussion has gone way over my head imlad - 20/04/2011 12:53:06 AM 1226 Views
Don't worry about it, there's no reason to know most of that stuff. Aemon - 20/04/2011 08:08:15 AM 1307 Views
Yeah, I think we were just getting confused with some terms. Aemon - 20/04/2011 08:04:47 AM 1258 Views
I def agree with you about Dany's wedding night. *NM* Darth_Katie - 22/04/2011 04:45:10 AM 689 Views

Is it me Roland00 - 18/04/2011 12:48:48 PM 1418 Views
