Garbage is just garbage.

Lady Stoneheart hype is dead. There were some leaks over the weekend that point to finale being a rushed mess. Benioff and Weiss are going to be bending over backwards to make sense of everyone in Riverlands on collision track now. Because for some strange reason (are they retarded?  are they misogynistic? are they both?) they just didn't want to bring her in.

Season 6 just like season 5 started so well. And now, as usual, it started derailing. There were all those desperate theories to explain Arya's idiotic behavior last week. People were arguing it was Jaqen pretending to be Arya because Arya would never be this stupid because it would be bad writing. Guess what?

Game of Thrones 6x07 The Broken Man

By s. Monday, June 6, 2016 , 14 Comments
We open for the very first time, since (I think) season 4 premiere, with cold open. We see a bunch of happy people building some sort of construction. And then we see a God among men himself, Swegen Ian McShane gracing this unworthy show with his presence. And then we see someone else....it's Sandor Clegane, last seen engaging in crotch kicking match with Brienne of Tarth and being left for dead by Arya is season 4 finale. And Sandor is indeed not dead. No, he is hanging out with Westerosi hippies.

Game of Thrones 6x06 Blood of my Blood

By s. Monday, May 30, 2016 , 6 Comments
This week has given us a truly wonderful episode with the best flow of the season - it felt like one long movie filled with rich sequences setting up what is hopefully going to be even better rest of the season. And one of the biggest highlights? No Lady Bolton this week.

Game of Thrones 6x05 The Door

One episode. That is the duration in which I liked Sansa in 6th season. After this episode she is my least favorite character again. Fortunately everything else was fantastic. Well other than the writers forgetting about some things about their own show. Again.

Game of Thrones 6x04 Book of the Stranger

This entire episode could have been just Tyrion wasting time or increasingly boring Ramsay is cruel scenes and it would still be 10. Why? Because we got that Stark reunion and it was everything.

Game of Thrones 6x03 Oathbreaker

By s. Monday, May 9, 2016 , 18 Comments

Jon Snow is back. In a scene that got a lot of women gasping because of Kit Harington's naked butt Jon rises from the dead after Melisandre brought him back in the last episode's ending. Davos discovers him and the look on his face was just priceless. Melisandre comes in, shocked. She asks Jon what did he see, what lies beyond death and much like Beric in season 3, Jon tells her there is nothing. Melisandre tells him that Stannis was not the Prince that was Promised but maybe he is and that the Lord of Light brought him back for a reason.

Game of Thrones 6x02 Home

I don't say that often, in fact I'm not sure I ever said it since the Red Wedding but last night's episode of Game of Thrones must have made even the book fans happy. Mind you, book fans like me who appreciate when the show is faithful to the book material and throws in familiar book lines our way, not book fans who go insane at every little change and seem to only focus on the negative.

Game of Thrones 6x01 The Red Woman

By s. Monday, April 25, 2016 , 20 Comments
Like in any toxic relationship me and so many others are back for more abuse in this season of Game of Thrones.  Because again it's Stoneheart watch this year. For 4th fucking time. So as usual I'm looking for clues and feeding my hype.But this year my goodwill is over. I used to give them benefit of the doubt. When I witnessed Sansa first agreeing to marry Bolton and then getting raped I kept thinking all right maybe the writers have some purpose or at least good reasoning for it. Maybe there will be some pay off. There was none. So, now I'm just gonna call it as I see it.

Is it time for Red Wedding 2.0? Watch the new trailer for Game of Thrones season 6

By s. Monday, April 11, 2016 , , 10 Comments
Well....hype? Trailer 2 for Game of Thrones season 6 just dropped and the above image featuring the long time no see Walder Frey seem to suggest that the event so many book readers have speculated will happen. Red Wedding 2.0 - only this time with the Freys dying in a massacre - is coming.

Game of Thrones 5x10 Mother's Mercy + thoughts on season 5

I'm declining to rate this episode.

Let's just get the bitterness out of the way:

Soundtrack Wednesday - Game of Thrones 5

Sophie Turner as Sansa Stark in season 5 finale "Mother's Mercy"
Here are my favorite tracks from the soundtrack for the 5th season of Game of Thrones. Ramin Djawadi has yet again proved to be the most reliable person on board - the soundtrack is again the best thing about the show. Though curiously there doesn't seem to be few tracks for the events we will definitely see in finale:

It is this time during GoT season when I get to use the words that only those who read the books understand.

These dumb as fuck showrunners, oh my God.

Game of Thrones 5x08 Hardhome

By s. Monday, June 1, 2015 , 28 Comments

OH MY GOD.

You guys!

I'm still shaking a bit and picking up my jaw off the floor after it hit it pretty much the moment the mist appeared, but before I talk about the battle scene, let's go back to the beginning of Hardhome, undoubtedly the finest episode of the season and one of the best episodes of the show so far.

Game of Thrones 5x07 The Gift

By s. Monday, May 25, 2015 , 27 Comments

This week on Thrones we got honest to God consensual sex scene. And that's not even the most shocking development in the episode. Two fan favorites finally meet, Sansa starts doing something other than being miserable - though there is still plenty of that and King Stannis makes me both turned on and incredibly worried.

Here we go:

Game of Thrones 5x05 Kill the Boy

By s. Monday, May 11, 2015 , 26 Comments
This week on Thrones things got progressively worse for few characters. The men in Daenerys' life are either getting killed by basic bitches in Meereen, being stuck in a pointless romance side plot or contracting the cross between rabies and leprosy, while Sansa is discovering the depths of the shitshow run by the Boltons in Winterfell. And also - I fear for the lives of absolutely every decent character in the Northern storyline.

Game of Thrones 5x04 Sons of the Harpy

By s. Monday, May 4, 2015 , 14 Comments
We open and check in with Jorah who loads unconscious Tyrion on a boat. The lighting in this scene is worse than in most Stannis' scenes, so that's one hell of an accomplishment. Also there is no Genry rowing in the background, so opportunity missed?

Game of Thrones 5x03 High Sparrow

This episode might as well be called "Everyone is dying inside". Cersei. Sansa. Jorah. Reek has mentally check out seasons ago but seriously, he reached some new levels of that this week. Also - Sansa fans. Dying inside all over the place.

Game of Thrones 5x02 The House of Black and White

The second episode of the 5th season was even better than last week's premiere. It included some truly magnificent cinematography, wonderful action scene featuring Brienne and The Wall's storyline loveliest moment to date.
