So The Hound really doesn't like fire.

Also, not to involve the books side of it too much, but does anyone know if the first two seasons cover the first book, or first + second book, or what? I was thinking about reading them in the "offseason" but haven't decided if I want to read past the end of season 2 or not.

Season 1 is Book 1, Season 2 is Book 2. I think theyre splitting Book 3 into 2 seasons though, since its so big.

Think he might give it another go, this time with Melisandre at his side? Davos is presumably dead, and wont be there to talk Stannis out of it this time. That is, if Stannis gets away unscathed.

PS, Rambo Stannis was awesome. Leading the charge, first up the ladder, SLICING TOPS OF HEADS OFF, etc. Love Stannis.

I thought he was pulled off by his own troops as well. A couple of my friends keep telling me they think he was captured by the Lannisters.

I was pretty sure it was his own troops. There weren't any more castle troops left where he was (it didn't look like) and they sounded the retreat only because Papa Lannister showed up with his troops. I really don't think he will be captured by the Lannisters.

I do think the guy who was/is his hand (forget his name) is alive and will be held prisoner.

I'm also super pumped to see the Hound peace out and hopefully take Sansa with him. Although, I was also kind of hoping that she was forced to marry Joffrey, but basically became this super hardass queen that tells him what to do just like his mom does. Joffrey is such a little *****, I kinda wish he stays around for a while even though he's annoying. I love when he runs to his mom or Tyrion has to put him in his place.

Thank you good sir. If true about book 3, that makes me happy in the pants.

I assume that, with the Lannister/Tyrell alliance now, that Margaery Tyrell (the woman who was with Renly) will end up as Queen now.

And the guy youre thinking of is Davos Seaworth, THE ONION KNIGHT. I assume he's dead though, he was right there when the wildfire went boom. Id love it if he were still around, im a big fan of his.

Gay Ork Wang · 05-29-2012, 05:00 PM

They already have quite a scenes from book 3 in this season and i think some scenes from book2 missing. it will get blurry once it moves on

fenikz · 05-29-2012, 05:01 PM

Like a boss.

comahan · 05-29-2012, 05:02 PM

Alright, no more book talk at all :P

Yeah Davos is awesome, but I think he's a goner.

That was my exact thinking. Margaery wants to be queen, no matter what, and it looks like Sansa is leaving, so the Lannisters will be like whatever, and marry her to Joffrey.

I hope Davos is still alive because he was a badass in the little amount that they have shown of him. I'm hoping he's alive and a prisoner, and Stannis chooses the fire witch or whatever over him, so Davos flips to a different side for revenge.

Also, maybe it's just me from what they've shown, but I actually kind of like Tywin Lannister. He doesn't seem like as big of a ***** as his daughter and the King Slayer, or Joffrey, and just seems to run things with no BS.

comahan · 05-29-2012, 05:09 PM

I love both Tywin and Jaime. The Tywin/Arya story was one of my favorite parts of this season, they were fantastic together.

Giantsfan1080 · 05-29-2012, 05:11 PM

I just can't imagine how Davos survived that explosion. Even if he did he would have landed in the water which was burning also. He has to be a goner.

Very much again. That dynamic was amazing and Jaime is one of the best characters on the show.

fenikz · 05-29-2012, 05:23 PM

Tywin, Tyrion & Jaime are the 3 best male characters by far

Giantsfan1080 · 05-29-2012, 05:24 PM

I'm a huge fan of Robb Stark even though I'm sure most of you perceive him as boring.

I love the Starks. I was a huge fan of the honorable Ned Stark as well. Robb hasn't played the biggest part this season though.

fenikz · 05-29-2012, 05:27 PM

His lore is far more interesting to me than he is

The Hound was great this episode but was mediocre prior to it, and Bronn is great for 1 liners but he is no where near those 3

Well neither as Jamie and he's seen as a favorite. Credit goes to Martin for creating such great characters throughout.

more natalie dormer and i'm happy.

There is so much wrong with the way you choose to be. Why are you the way you are? Theon should be kicked to death by the giant ogre guy taking Bran's legs and making them kick.

I'm going to start calling you Joffrey.

Also, the show needs more Khaleesi breasticles, preferably with dragons running wild over her.
