• Game of Thrones Review: The Stark Reality (6/11/2013)

  @Richard you are right. I forgot about Arya killing the stable boy, but you have to admit this was different. She was defending herself against the stable boy and it was more of an accident. Her stabbing the soldier in the finale was more cold blooded. And I think you'd agree ordering people killed is different than looking them in the eye as you do it. But again, you are right and she even hinted at it when she answered Sandor that yes it was the first "man" she ever killed. Her latest murder marked a change though didn't it? We saw the first glimpse of what Melisandre saw when she looked into Arya's eyes. A killer through and through.

  @nik I write these reviews. My name and picture are on them as opposed to you who essentially posts as anon. It seems like I missed "everything of importance" on the show? Really? I do agree with your comment about Robb. He certainly put his own interests ahead of his family's and his people. There can be honor in war though. "Messy, unfair and bloody" does not make it dishonorable. There is honor in fighting for what you believe in. The difference with the Red Wedding was that the Stark's were brought there under false pretense. They were deceived and betrayed. That was not honorable. Soldiers marching into battle know what is on the line. Tywin is shrewd but I wouldn't go so far as to say he took the "moral high ground."
  

• Game of Thrones Review: A Bedding and A Betrayal (6/3/2013)

  Thx @none, you're right on the warg typo, I went back and fixed. And it was "Jon" not Robb I meant to type with the wildings you're right. I posted the review at 2:42 AM so even after a couple careful read-throughs and spell checks a couple things were bound to escape my editing. Any thoughts on the episode? @annihilator I will let it be known there is interest in us following Halo. @boxyp I like your point about Edmure being a valuable hostage. I wonder if roslin was in on the plot. Her smile vanished when it came time for the bedding ceremony. Either that was just her dreading being carried off to bed or she knew what was coming.
