As someone who is not a reader of A Song of Ice and Fire, it takes us a little bit of time watching “Game of Thrones” for us to get a sense of what is actually a massive change from the source material. As it turns out, one of those big changes came courtesy of the decision […]
“Game of Thrones” has always loved to create their juxtaposition between marriages and deaths, but not exactly in the way we saw on Sunday night’s new episode. For once, we had a ceremony happen without any surprises! Margaery and Tommen are already married, and despite however cringe-worthy it may be, they have also already slept […]
There is an all-new episode of “Game of Thrones” of course airing on HBO next week, and this one (entitled “The Sons of the Harpy”) will allow us the chance to see a few stories that were not too present during the new episode tonight. Specifically, we are talking about how it was a relatively […]
Everyone loves weddings on “Game of Thrones,” right? Well, the real truth here is that almost no one should love them at this point. We already had the huge tragedy of the Red Wedding, and then a pretty shocking result to Margaery’s attempt to marry Joffrey. The chain of events in “The Lion and the Rose” are […]
While “Game of Thrones” definitely has their own fair share of headlines this season when it comes to action on the show, we really cannot ignore the fact that there are many headlines about some of the action away from the events in King’s Landing. Specifically, we are talking about the epic battle HBO is currently in the […]
If anyone out there thought that “Game of Thrones” would actually improve its ratings in the second week following the premiere, we are looking at you right now in the same way that Lady Olenna looks at almost everything. It’s extremely rare for a show to actually gain an audience following a premiere, especially one […]
It is a shame that HBO does not put out extensive “Inside the Episode” videos for each “Game of Thrones” episode that touch on every single event that transpires over the course of the hour. Then again, we also do understand it. It would take David Benioff and D.B. Weiss almost as long to talk […]
Is “Game of Thrones” season 5 moving along at a rapid enough pace? We’re not quite sure that it is after watching the second installment of the season on Sunday. “The House of Black and White” did contain a few key moments, and yet we at the same time are struggling to hide the feeling […]
Through the first two episodes, “Game of Thrones” has certainly taken its time setting up many of the narratives that will drive this season. For example, we saw changes within the Night’s Watch, with Dany, and with Arya Stark as they all prepare for what are many difficult weeks to come. Next week’s installment is […]
Sunday night’s new “Game of Thrones” episode is definitely one to look out for. “The House of Black and White” is the name, but we imagine that for many characters, almost nothing will be so black and white at all. For Danaerys Targeryan, for example, she finds herself at a difficult moral crisis. While there […]
