Game of Thrones, A Golden Crown, 5/22/11

Since I haven’t seen the episode after this, this statement confused me. I double-checked anyway. The scene is in “A Golden Crown.”

When people are worrying that a fucking t-shirt that mentions a throw away line is a fucking spoiler you know things are getting stupidly ridiculous.

I think it’s faux outrage, mocking people who are concerned about actual spoilers. AND FOR FUCKS SAKE DO YOU GUYS NEED TO PISS ALL OVER THIS THREAD TOO? Shut up already.

It amazes me how childishly indignant a whole lot of people on this board get about spoilers, mostly on the “I’LL SAY WHAT I WANT!!!” side of things.

Ah, yes. Thanks.

I think what a lot of people are forgetting is that there is magic and supernatural elements in the world. It’s so rare that it doesn’t affect the lives of most everyone in the land. It’s so rare that even people who should know better make fun of it (for instance, the Others north of the Wall) because they’ve seen no evidence of its existence. But it’s there. So the fact that Dany not getting burned wouldn’t have happened in our world has little bearing on what happens in her world.

All that aside, Dany isn’t the Last Dragon.

It’s

LEROY Green!And not, as previously assumed, Sho’nuff

I was really happy to see that the dancing master’s “there is only one god” didn’t go the way I thought it was going. I thought he was going to do a Number Six.

Such a great line too, perfect for Syrio.

It really was. It’s been creeping into my head all week: “Not today.” :slight_smile:

The tagline in the ad for the shirt is “For the man who knows the lay of the land” :smack: :stuck_out_tongue:

As per multiple articles before the show debuted, Game of Thrones has half the budget of Rome. (IIRC, $50 million compared to Rome’s $100 million.) The major difference is that they pretty much built a city for Rome, while Game of Thrones looks largely CGI.

Heh. The first part wasn’t a spoiler. Actually…none of that was a spoiler. It was a joke from here:

I got it. In fact, when Dany said it, I turned to my husband and said, “Sho’Nuf!”

Not sure if anyone already answered this, but why did Danny put the dragon egg on those embers?

I don’t think it was actually mentioned on the show. See PM, just in case.

She has been eyeing those eggs and the fire ever since she got them. There has been nothing that explicitly reveals what she’s thinking, but my guess is that she’s wondering if she might be able to hatch them.

The significance of heating the eggs will be explained later. I won’t spoil anything, but I can at least reassure that you haven’t missed anything.

Okay, people, I’ve already said I haven’t read the books or seen the TV show – and though Gukumatz is helping with these threads, I don’t want to bug him every five minutes.

I’m going to continue to err on the side of too many spoiler boxes – if they’re not needed, no biggie, but if they are, someone’s gonna get pissed off.

twickster, who can’t wait until this show has finished its run, but is already dreading its release on DVD.

That was my guess, but it wasn’t even clear if they were viable.

OK. Sometimes it’s hard to tell in this series.

Yeah, an a non book-reader, it seems to me that since she is apparently the “last dragon” she has some sort of innate instinct to hatch those eggs.

For me, it happened during this episode, but before Ned figured it out. When Joffrey came to apologise to Sansa and said he’d never be mean to her again (or something like that), I turned to my has-read-the-books boyfriend and said “Pssh. He’s half Lannister, he’ll never keep that promise. Oh wait! The blonde hair! He’s FULL Lannister isn’t he?! Poor Sansa.”

And now, “full Lannister” is our new slang for “total dick”. :slight_smile:
