I don’t get these comments. Maybe they’re refering to something typically American? I get (or at least guess) that it’s refering Loras sexual preferences, but could someone explain?
The in-family joke between myself, my wife and my two older sons revolves asking each other a question that always ends with “John Snuh”.
My wife blew my mind last night when she whispered (paraphrasing) in my ear “Have you ever had a bit of discreet buggery before, John Snuh?” :eek:;):p:D

There’s no France on their planet. He may have said fringed.
-
He is a fashion-minded homosexual (redundant, I know.)
The closed captioning said in fact fringed.
It’s spelled “warg” in the books. Tolkien’s books. Relax, mods.
Has anyone found any high-res shots of the views of Westeros and the north lands from the end of the episode? Would make a pretty nice wallpaper.
Oleanna was less impressive than usual. What I liked the most was Varys/Littlefinger dialog followed by Littlefinger’s monologue.
Frankly the wall part is what I liked the less. Cliffhanging girl + kiss + final shot of the great (and somehow not Snowy) landscape beyond the wall. I wasn’t accustomed to such clichés in the show.
Totally agree. I was very disappointed that it happened off screen.
It seems the characters themselves are clueless. The red priestess states that what the drunk priest did was impossible.
Huh? She had her dreams broken (again!), she’s supposed to marry an old dwarf instead of a Young attractive white knight, and she’ll stay in King’s landing which has been such a joyful palce for her. Does she need more reasons to cry?
IIRC, Varys told him so just after he was wounded, or at least strongly implied it (but mentioned that he had no proofs).
He sent a spy/seducer to Loras, and disclosed the secret marriage agreement to Cersei.
They watch it several times, I guess. Plus, some people are good at noticing and remembering some things (the tune Tyrion’s is whistling, character’s names, etc..). Finally someone remembering X might have totally missed Y.
- Hmmm…ok, I’m officially an idiot.
2)OK. I thought it was something more subtle (the colours mentioned referring to something, for instance).
Thanks.
I agree it was a little cliche, but I still liked the shot. The beyond the wall side was snowy. The green side was the southern side.

Stannis is the mannis.
He rolls around with a crew of badass smugglers and pirates and a sexy foreign witch.
He promotes people based on merit, not on who their father was.
Her refuses to not give people credit for their accomplishments, but he also refuses to not insult people when they deserve it. He literally thinks it would be unethical not to insult them.
Stannis has sex on a table shaped like a giant map of the country he plans to conquer.
Stannis blows a load so hard that 2 weeks later the woman gives birth to a fully grown shadow man that assassinates his political rivals.
His pre-battle inspirational speech was one sentence long and was really more of an order than a speech. It was still the most inspiring thing we’ve seen on the show so far.
Stannis is always angry. You’d be pissed off too if you had to live in Westoros. It’s kind of a terrible place.

He also sired Lord Voldemort…no really!!!
I loved the Lady Tyrell and Tywin battle. It looked like two battleships firing broadsides at one another.
I will miss Roz or more accurately the employment of her as a nude model.
What will Jamie do, dump Brianne or perhaps be a gentleman.
Yes, but is there a reason why the snow would stop so abruptly at the wall?
They probably built the wall just north of the frost line.
Its not that the snow stops near the wall, but rather that they built the wall right around where the snow stops. Makes perfect sense to me.
AK, there aren’t to be any spoilers in these threads, not even boxed ones. We have a spoiled thread that you’re welcome to ask that question on. Indeed, we have discussed that very subject.
This is a HUGE spoiler. Don’t read it (I deleted the spoiling content in this post).
I’ll ask a mod to completely delete it from AK84’s post, since I’m sure some people will look at it.
If you watch the season 2 finale, as the horde of White Walkers is approaching, a cloud of ice is coming with them, as if their very presence affects the weather. I am assuming the snow ends at the wall because that’s where the dominion of the White Walkers ends.
Why did Bolton send Jaime back to Kings Landing? Robb Stark would obviously be very angry at giving away such a valuable asset. If the Starks win the war then being on the Lannister’s good side will be of no use, and if they lose the war then the Lannisters will probably still be mad about fighting for the enemy.
“Lannisters always pay their debts” might be part of his reasonning.
Speaking of cliches I was ready for them to just die in that fall and no one to ever mention them again thus fulfilling her view about them being unimportant in the grand scheme of things and continuing the ‘don’t get attached’ to any of the characters idea.
If Egret isn’t playing Jon Snow for a fool, then I’ll eat the Lord of Bones’ hat.
AK84, this is the no-spoilers thread. Please do not post spoilers in this thread at all, not even in spoiler boxes.
