Let's see...the wildlings eventually join forces with the Crows and Stannis. Melisandre thinks Jon Sneugh is Azor Ahai (chosen of the red god or some such) instead of Stannis.

Tyrion kills Shae.
The Hound dies (probably).
A few cats become knights.
Cersei and Jaime do the nasty next to Joffrey's corpse.


The Hound should have died in the last episode.

GoT, TPB... tons of shows --- I have not owned a TV since 1998. The last series I watched was Lexx that went out in 2002 (and MST3K before that).

What's going on?


edit:

OK I looked into this Game of Thrones thing...

You people are pathetic.


All that intrigue and goings on between these kingdoms, and keeping track of it. I remember I recently got a GoT fan(atic) started on that - good thing I was drunk.

If you people paid as much attention to all this intrigue and goings on in your governments (and relations to who they are doing what to on behalf of whom) the world would not be sliding into tyranny.

What, no swords and monsters and crap in RL? Flying killer robots (that we have in RL) not impressive enough? The real monsters wear suits and pass laws.

Or maybe it's wishful thinking...


Trailer Park Boys is in fact the only thing worth watching, period.

Screw GoT. May it die a foul death. May its fans all ... get a life.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Only children and people with the mentality of children think that spoiling things for others is funny.

i think people that throw a tantrum about "spoilers" from a plot line that's years old, also have the mentality of children.

Maybe we don't like it because it's a crappy, half-baked tv show made by idiots for idiots?

Don't know where you're from, but I assure that this drivel is not "cool" where I come from.


You're a 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' fan aren't you?



cheap cinema is honest cinema.

I dislike the game of thrones because it aspires to be something it's not. And it makes my eyes bleed to watch this. The show isn't much really. The action is switching constantly because either the director or the script writers cannot tell a good story without making it boring.

Characters die and it's kinda new, but, let's be honest, with the walking dead out there it's getting old fast.

What else is there in the show? Dialogs? Come on... It's just another flat tv show, that bombards you with sex, sadism and constant action twists because they want to delay you approaching a point when you see it's boring.

One cheek is trying to cross a dessert, some other people have sex in castles. Really?!

Who's throwing a tantrum?

Why does it matter how old the plot line is? If a kid is watching Star Wars for the first time, do you think it's funny to tell him that Vader is Luke's father just because he wasn't fortunate enough to be alive and old enough when the film first came out?

Your ad hominem notwithstanding, it actually is a pretty bad TV show. Just because you like that fantasy crap, doesn't mean everyone does.

I never said you had to like it, but every single objection I've heard that says it's a bad show is for moronic reasons, like "there's too much sex" and "it's too violent" and "fantasy is crap".

In principal, I agree with you. In practice, someone who comes to the EVE general discussion board to whine about people spoiling a completely non-EVE related show deserves what they get. And anyone else that comes into this thread that gets stuff spoiled is just collateral damage of that end.

As to game of thrones itself, I think it's a decent show with good acting (see the **** Joffrey) and good writing (e.g. Bronn in every scene). I can understand it's not to everyone's taste, but that doesn't make it a bad show. And really, it's all just a matter of opinion anyways. If you disagree with someone, no need to give a **** about their opinion really.

It sickens me that 8 years of development time have been put into World of Darkness when they could have been used to stop Game of Thrones spoilers. For shame, CCP!

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?
