Re: 1000 Post Club

I also only watched those two. And not one after the other, but with many hours between them.


Rather than rushing the experience, I want to savour it.

Quite right: you wouldn't want her to turn into another Sansa.

Parson surfaces from his cave scratching his head confused. He thinks he needs a translator for 1st 2 eps of GOt. --- First two episodes? of ___________ no clue what that was. And then a Sansa --- mp3 player? or a Cersei --- not even a guess here.

Hey, Clan man, you have some good rich coffee to go with that single malt? I need to clear my head.

Re: 1000 Post Club

The world has been beating a path to my door. I wonder why....






Yes, Game of Thrones, as opposed to A Game of Thrones, which is a book. (It's odd seeing a reasonably faithful adaptation.)

Re: 1000 Post Club

yep, they've done a pretty good translation so far, although the mock yorkshire accents are kind of irking a bit.... tyrion is by far the best, casting wise.

...although at one point - and you won't believe it - his accent veered towards Richard Wilson's.

Pfft. You mean throughout the entire show it's like he's mimicking Victor Meldrew.

Re: 1000 Post Club

If it was there all the time, it would be appropriate to his character: Tyrion does have a problem with getting people to believe him. (Almost eerily so....)

Re: 1000 Post Club

Hmm ... I finally get to come in here, only to find that they are speaking gibberish. Do I need another 1000 posts before I get the translator? It might be a while. Good thing Mouse is here to provide explanations!
