Hands down the best part of this episode was Denaerys finally properly putting Viserys in his place"A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people. That's it, the end." -- Penelope Wilton in Ricky Gervais's After Life

******* it show, stop making me like Jaime so much. ISN'T HE THE BAD GUY HERE? :/
Also, awesome all 'round. Jon's shaping up to be a good hero character, Arya's continual awesome streak is awesome, and Tyrion was great, as usual. But I gotta admit I think Cat one-upped him like a bawse there at the end. Good way to end an episode.
The Mountain That Rides is a scary ****er. That is all.~ When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take back the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! WITH THE LEMONS! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that BURNS YOUR HOUSE DOWN! ~
~ Burning people! He says what we're all thinking! ~

Actually about the only part in this week I didn't like was the Wall vet going off on Jon and Sam with his "I'm so badass" stories about the last Winter. Crap like that makes my eyes roll so hard I worry about them falling out of my head, which is kind of a shame because there were interesting stories in there."A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in.

Anyway, overall I loved this episode best yet. Good to see some gore back, as Ser Hugh of the Vale met his end, great establishing character moment for the Mountain, awesome stuff with Jon at the Wall, all the rest good as usual. Can’t wait for next week.

re: the guy who plays 'The Mountain'
someone dig up his showreel thingy (or whatever the actors use to show off their skills is called), I don't remember where I saw it, but it was quite funny (there was this bit where he was fighting another big dude and they were smashing into a small plane and bits were being broken )
re: Thorne's lines w/ Jon and Sam
Yeah, I liked that bit, too. The North, esp. beyond the Wall, is a bad, bad place (and the opponents Thorne was talking about were only the human 'Wildlings' hehehe ).
It's also nice that they're dropping names already, like Mance Rayder (I don't remember the first book anymore...that and I lent it out a week ago )

I wanted to see more of the tournament, and I think we will in the next ep. (which should I think be pretty action packed).Last edited by The Mighty 6 platoon; 09 May 2011, 04:24 AM.

It was blocked by the forum's curse filter until recently when I whined and Darren took it out."A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in.

Originally posted by The Mighty 6 platoon View PostI thought that part was awesome, and the point is, he's not exaggerating, in winter in Westeros, in the North it really is that bad, hell it gets worse. Most drill Sergeant nasty characters are presented as being unpleasant for the sake of it, but when you think about it, Thorne is right. And of course as viewers we know more than just wildlings and the deathly cold are comeing in the Winter...
But considering it was my only complaint about the episode...."A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people. That's it, the end." -- Penelope Wilton in Ricky Gervais's After Life

Yet another great episode
The Mountain is f***ing scary, first he played with ser Hugh of the Vale and the second time we got some gore. I was actually waiting for Loras, guess he's in the next episode.
Great performances all around, especially Tyrion, Littlefinger and Jon. Not to forget Sam made his first appearence and Dany finally stood up to Viserys.
Yes, they are setting up quite a few storylines for down the line, Mance, Thoros and the Greyjoys
Hope to have the time write a more detailed review soon...
