Yeah, stoater of a spoiler there.
 
Episode 4: Season now in its stride. Some events I thought would be later take place so we should be into the relentless build for THAT event in the penultimate episode.
 
EDIT: New Gregor is BIG. But lanky. You wouldn't describe him as a mountain. More a drainpipe. Even clad in all his gear.

Shit just got real in episode 4

What in the hell did I just witness.

Guess there is no siege of Storms End then.
 
The mountain has lost abit of weight, looks abit like a curtain with legs.
 
That scene was rather ace.

It's a different actor. More drainpipe than mountain.
 
Regarding Storms End, I just presumed the two events will now happen at much the same time, rather than the Storms End  one happening after the other one. A two pronged attack rather than successive ones.
 
I trust that's vague enough to be totally spoiler free whilst being clear enough to anyone who knows what "the events" are!

I can see the new mountain being more solemn than the last actor who looked utterly ferocious in the Jousting scene.
 
The Drainpipe Who Rides then.

Damn good episode. Definitely looks like they are merging the siege of Storms End and the other event. I don't think they've really explained what's going on for those who haven't read the books though. For those that are curious, Storms End is the ancestral home of the Baratheon family (in the same way that Casterley Rock is the home of the Lannisters and Winterfell is for the Starks). Renly currently holds it, but Stannis wants to claim his family home for himself.

Brammy

Ha, brilliant

Jerome speaking from his experience of Robson Greene there probably.
 
Brill episode this week, first one of the 2nd season that I've thought was on a par with the 1st season.

I've gotten over them fiddling with the order of things, but as people have said, The Drainpipe that Rides is a tad stupid. Still don't think that there's enough dialogue for him throughout the entire series, to justify changing the actor on those grounds. The season 1 Gregor looked an absolute beast.

Yeah, Gregor doesn't say much through the series. So I can't imagine they changed the actor for someone better spoken. I heard that they had to recast him because the old actor is busy filming the Hobbit. Not sure if that's true though.

Yeah the old Gregor is playing Azog..fair enough really,would be difficult to turn down The Hobbit.

Ending was a bit ****.

That was a queef and a half 

This weeks episode was pretty good.
 
I know there's undead winter creatures and dragons in this show, but I find a shadow demon a bit gay.

Pyat Pree is suitably weird looking.

Really like how the series is building up now.  They seem to have taken more liberties with the plot this season, but it's still the best thing on telly jus now by a country mile

Well, Jaqen, Arya, Tickler totally ruins a very, very important scene later which is intrinsic to someone's characterisation.
 
I'm still thoroughly enjoying things, but with lots of changes this season that I don't think really effect things overall, that' the first one I think is a big mistake.

Ed Tudor Pole!!

Haha, awesome.  Although I kind of wanted Tyrion to tell Bronn to get up there and kill him. 

[Spoiler]



can just imagine him singing.... "whooo killed renly? whoooo killed renly??"

Although that was a bit of a shock, shame to see him go, last week I couldn't decide who I wanted to win out of Stannis and him.
Guess it's settled. Shame it was the bullshit monster though. The fantasy things are my least favourite part.
