I'm so glad Joffery is dead, but I wish he had suffered some Theon-style torture before hand. He didn't deserve to die so quickly.

This is easly the best epsiode of the season and it had zero action.
And is anyone else thinking that Cercei is pulling strings through Shai?

Edit. Ups! forgot about Dredd fort invasion so a little action...

Geez, Sansa just can't seem get a moment's rest. First, she's engaged to a completely psychopathic King, then when she escapes said psychopath, she finds herself living with a crazy aunt, and engaged with an equally crazy king.

At least Cersei isn't as crazy as Lysa Tully, if you piss her off it's moongate for you...

Twice I've sat down to read the books and unfortunately I just found it difficult to stay focused - I don't know whether that says more about me, or whether it's just that I find it hard to gel to George R R Martin's particular writing style.

The most recent episode had me on the edge of my seat - to the point where the credits started rolling and I was like "Oh, COME ON!" at the cliffhanger ending

I couldn't say that I have a favourite house per se, but I love watching Brienne of Tarth, Cersei and Tyrion. I have to admit that I find anything to do with the Starks or the Knight's Watch a bit dull, despite having a soft spot for Sansa.

Based on the first season, I really didn't think that I was going to be a fan of the show, but it's definitely grown on me and I'm glad I stuck with it!

Holly crap was this a good one, each episode keeps toping the previous one,
so many great moments.
Spoiler:
The hound, this is the most simpathetic he's been so far.
That conversation betwen the Oberin and Tyrion}
The ending, holly crap.
And Hot Pie cameo, yeeey..

how do you guys feel about the new Mountain? I like the old guy better, this one's a little to young and the old one had a crazier face...

Can't wait to see Oberyn fight the Mountain


Also, I don't mind the recasting of The Mountain that much, he does a fine enough job. On another note
Spoiler:
Notice how when Littlefinger pushes Lysa out of the moon gate, she falls in a straight line?

Question

Merely out of curiosity, does anybody know why they recast the actor playing The Mountain?

They wanted a bigger actor.

Their recasting thus far has been lame. Game of Thrones has enough smaller parts that it's hard enough to keep track of people as it is, let alone when they completely replace the actor.

Man, last episode was crazy.
Spoiler:
I cringed when The Mountain gouged out Oberyn Martell's eyes out and squished his head.

Do you mean just the imagery or how you felt for the character?
