'The Message'
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Sometimes I think that the only thing that has saved Tommen and Myrcella from being like their older brother is that all of their mother's focus has been on Joffrey.
Interesting you say that because I think the relationship of Joffrey and his mother is not unlike Lysa (Catelyn's sister, right) and her son, except the latter pair is a lot more visually disgusting, but no less demented than the former pair.
I don't get how you can get her actions and not get Joffrey's.
Well, what I can understand about Cersei is that she's afraid of anyone who is not her having power, so she has to do whatever it takes to be the one with the power. Wanton expression of power a la Joffrey I don't get. I can describe it but not really understand it. Fear I can understand.
The band Dinosaur Feathers has written a song asking GHHM to please finish the next GOT book: Please, Please George
But he did finish it! It's coming out soonish, I thought.
Someone needs to tell *them* that!
It's coming on July 12th.
Perhaps they just don't believe it.
It's a nice song, not just because it's power pop, but because it's encouraging rather than condemnatory for GRRM.
I'm six episodes in to GoT (I just saw Visery get the crown he so richly deserved) and damn that is some good drama! I've blasted through those in 5 days; I expect I'll be finished this weekend.
That is making me laugh a lot more than it should.
