Game of Thrones Season 2 (NO SPOILERS THREAD)

[Schnapple]

I'm personally struggling to find him believable as the character of Theon, at times he sounds like he's reading lines straight off a card.
I know loads of people are saying they're feeling his performance though

[bluemovers]

this episode sold me on Alfie, actually.

[Schnapple]

I'll give credit where it's due, the decapitation scene was p good.

[manvstrees]

the actor is perfect
the writing on his scenes this week was shit.

true, that was pretty decent

[banquo]

I'm personally struggling to find him believable as the character of Theon

girlfriend started reading book 1 and had a similar complaint, though mostly that "he wasn't attractive enough" or something.

i figure he's supposed to be a guy from the north islands, and because of that they casted someone looking more british. or at least young-chris martin (coldplay) british. kinda looks like he could front a successful british band at least, but only comparing him in looks to chris martin/thom yorke sort of off but fine.

i think he's doing fine, and wouldn't have thought any of this if no one else mentioned it.

this was really obvious in the scenes at pyke but i didn't mind him in this episode

[dragon jeans]

I don't know his name, but the spice king is a really awesome character.

Also, I always want to help Dany so much with my semi-omniscient view of Westeros so bad. If only I was the richest man in Qarth and knew what I know now.

[swamp thing]

spice king is pretty chill

should have been paul f tompkins in a fatsuit though

[Spotlight Kid]

So psyched Osha finally got naked, girl looks good.

[Blackeyed]

So psyched Osha finally got naked, girl looks good.

I assumed a wildling would have a wilder bush.

[Duke]

the actress playing osha is the only thing i can't stand about this season

it's like her skull was put on her spine wrong

[Ted Pikul]

She has the posture of a xenomorph

[Spotlight Kid]

She's been a prisoner of the starks for so long, she's adapted to their ways.

[deadaswarhol]

i accidentally clicked on the spoilers thread instead of this one and ruined a big character's death

[Self Destructive Zone]

i did that a week ago and found out the tickler died differently in the books, in what sounded like a really awesome scene. i hope they're just reworking the plot so that it happens to joffrey instead

[Spotlight Kid]

Woah Osha was Tonks in the HP movies.

[G_S]

I'd like a site that was, like, kinda spoilerly

[seriesfinale]

i accidentally clicked on the spoilers thread instead of this one and ruined a big character's death

Ever since Ned fuckin' Stark got his head lopped off I've just kinda assumed that every one of these characters will die in the next couple seasons

[someguy]

which one of daenerys' female servants got murdered

[Merciel]

The Dothraki one. iirc she only had two left, the Dothraki girl and the Westerosi girl.

I'm 75% sure it's the one who was flirting with the guy whose head got sent back in the saddlebag earlier this season.

[Self Destructive Zone]

i like that this guy refuses to back down from hating sansa

[Feech La Manna]

The Dothraki one. iirc she only had two left, the Dothraki girl and the Westerosi girl.

Yeah. It's Irri. Was she confirmed dead though?

[Poptone]

I think Alfie's been pretty great. He's supposed to be somewhat annoying.

Yeah. I laughed so hard at his "Know what? How to eat dirt?" and subsequent self-satisfied snigger.

[someguy]

I figured it was Irri but I didn't really catch it when I watched the ep, also I'm guessing the other girl is still alive since she wasn't anywhere to be found

[Ted Pikul]

In episode 5, did anyone else catch Ser Rodrik's little smirk after Bran told him to go to Torrhen's Square?

[dr. badvibes]

i didn't notice it during the episode, but they replayed it during episode 6's "recently, on game of thrones" precredits

[worrywort]

yah, it was a nice "i see your dad in you" moment.

[Augen]

maybe I'm missing an obvious reason, by why didn't Osha kill Theon? Seems like it would've been pretty easy.

[Merciel]

I imagine the in-universe reason is something along the lines of "his bodyguard is right outside and I'll never get past the door if he looks inside and sees a dead body on the bed."

The metaplot reason is because that's not how that scene goes down in the books and Osha killing Theon right then would screw up a lot of other stuff.
