It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Saw the fist couple episodes of the new House of Cards. Spacey's doing a great job.

Walking Dead: You know if I was Rick, I'd go back to the prison and say, "OK, pack up. We're moving.  I know a place that the governor will never be able to get to." Seriously that Morgan dude has a nice little setup.

Anybody else watched the premiere of Vikings?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikings_%28TV_series%29

It follows the adventure of Ragnar Lodbrok.

It's really well done so far, I really like it.  The viking's portrayal seems accurate, the characters are well fleshed out.  I'll be watching the next episodes for sure :)

I liked it quite a bit, though Gabriel Byrne seemed very annoyed to be in it.

I didn't even know Ragnar Lodbrok was real.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I think (it's been a while since I read about it - need to ask friends who do Scandinavian studies at university) the legendary Lodbrok is an amalgamate of historical characters, including the real one. Though he is (historically) the father of at least Ivar the Boneless who led the Great Heathen Army in England.

I've been watching Ripper Street on BBC America.  Not a bad show, but it amuses me as yet another example of shows I watch intermingling in terms of casts.  So far Bronn, Jorah Mormont, Barristan Selmy, and the future Blackfish have shown up in White Chapel. :lol:  I presume the filming locations are close together.

Speaking of which, the season 3 GoT trailer really got me excited. Can't wait for a hyper teenage girl on a revolutionary spree.

P.S. Now that Renly is gone, I support Daenerys.

Probably the most introspective Walking Dead yet.

This season's all about little boy growing up.

He still needs to be smacked around a bit;  little fucker's still too mouthy, dead Mom or no dead Mom.

Devourer of Souls is the only person in the group that understands it's a brand new zombie world & most of them need to die.

Weird.  I would have assumed you would back Joffrey.  I mean, you're practically a (slightly) male version of Cersei.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

 :huh:

Cersei only backs Joffrey because he's her son, otherwise she wouldn't be able to stand him.

Joffrey is a male version of Cersei.  Vain, pointlessly cruel and unreasonably proud.

Cersei is smart, devious, cunning, qualities with Joffrey lacks, though maybe he could have developed those if he had lived longer.
