Me and my friends meet up on monday evenings to watch AGOT, given that I know what "was going to happen" this week I've been ripping my hair out avoiding spoilers.
:lol: yeah, it's hard to resist going around saying "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN?!!!!!"
I really want to see some reactions from those who were unaware.
I'm both trying not to spoil myself and spoil others. I haven't watched the episode yet.

That was awesome. :lol:
Sadly, he was spoiled about the RW and there's no similar video for it.
I love this tweet.

I wonder if any of the vitriol from Tweeter will cost the show viewers?

Just the video I had in mind actually.

Oh they will be back. If you hate Lannisters the next couple seasons are very enjoyable.

Particulary the next one.

not much denial, now anger, then bargaining, then depression, then acceptance... but in this case it includes a desire for revenge against all freys, boltons and lannisters (except tyrion). Do not despair, they will watch the purple wedding and the hand's throne room with glee and count the days before that blonde witch goes next. Won't the AFFC/ADWD season there be a let down as well though. They will watch to see Daenerys cross the narrow sea with her dragons to burn the lannisters to a crisp. Do not worry about the ratings. Baelor didn't screw them over, it was the highest rated episode in season 1 so far and since then the ratings have just gone up.
:hmm:
Until know I'd never heard of the purple wedding. Then I saw that it was the name of one of the books in French.

Yeah... the part that started annoying me was when they ...

... started coming back to life again. That shit got stupid real quick.
At the risk of this making me sound like a faggot, I sobbed every time I watched the end of the episode (three times so far).
I thought the look of resignation in Richard Madden's eyes and the grief in Michelle Fairley's was amazing. If they don't get an Emmy for that I don't know who will.

It was a great episode, but cry? Hardly worth that.

I hope viewer anger is directed at the approriate target: the lax weapons regulations of Westeros. Strict crossbow control laws and bans on concealed knife carriage could have prevented this terrible tragedy.

<NRA>If the Starks had had crossbows and valyrian blades at the wedding they wouldn't have been killed </NRA>

I presume those were manly straight-acting tears?

Actually, I blame the regulations that prohibit a concealed dire wolf carry.

I have no reason to live after watching that episode of game of thrones. My life is over.

Walder Frey was an organ of the government, and you could even argue that he was doing his duty under the law as he brutally slaughtered the Starks and their people.

I'd say Robbie Robertson is more likely. He did write the song after all. Also, Levon Helm/The Band's cover is better, even though The Boss's is still quite good.
