walkwithheroesSome thoughts on the season premier of A Game of Thrones.
Game of Thrones:
- Sansa just looks and acts like an abused wife, doesn't she? I just wanted to give her a hug.
- And Joffrey is a terrible little asshole. He's got power now, and he's ready to abuse it. That actor is doing a fab job, because I've never wanted to hit a child before. But anytime he comes on screen, I want to punch him in the face.
- Tyrion you're awesome. I love you.
- Cersei has power now, but she doesn't seem to know what to do with it. And she is quickly losing control of her bratty son. I hate that she had Robert's children killed. You know, this whole damn thing was started because of her incest with Jamie.
- Is Jamie going to be tied up as a prisoner all season? I hope not.
-Catelyn somehow seems dumber her than she did in the book. . . or is that me?
- The Stannis story line seemed a bit rushed to me.
- This whole episode felt like set up for the whole season. Like 'He's here.' 'They are over there.' etc, etc. It felt way too short.
- I feel like Shae has been made a regular, just to give Tyrion more people to talk to. Hopefully they flesh out her character more than in the novels.
- That guy (I can't remember his name)who marries his daughters is gross. And his daughters act like slaves and kidnap victims. The one who spoke (It was Cassie from Skins!) sounded like she had memorized what to say and was just saying it to save her life. Save those girls, please!
- I read that season two will be partly books 2 and 3 of the novel series. I hope that's true. Because some characters should have more to do than sit around all season (looking at you, Jamie)
- Is it weird that I want to 'ship Gendry and Ayra because of that last scene? I know in the books she's ten and he's fifteen or sixteen, so. . . it could work in six years. But, in real life he's 24 and she's 14 (was 13 during filming). . .so it sort of creeps me out. But, I like them for some reason.
