HBO's Game of Thrones: Season 4

ITA. You would think that by now that nothing should surprise DH on how things go in GoT, but he did not see that coming to Prince Obrek (sp?) :rolleyes:. I had a feeling it would since things in GoT seem to happen as if it were in real life compared to what we are used to reading in fiction books. I've come to expect it with this series.

Prince Oberyn
 
Also, anyone else think of Lion King during the Bolton's little meet-up?

I have to say I was not shocked as much as I was "ticked" :mad:
Yes am full aware of the "rug pull" technique so often applied in this series. Though now it seems to be showing up in ever episode.
I really did like the Prince Oberyn character. He was a character that fully enjoyed life and didnt seem to hate anyone except for those that harmed his own family. I wanted to see more of him.
Then the "rug pull" happened. I have to say this was even more grotesque then the red wedding.

Was so ticked at the ending I was ready to stop completely watching the series unless I knew what was prob going to happen in the next few episodes. So I cheated and read spoilers.

On another note of this episode it was nice to see Sansa showing something other than the "keep quiet and just accept what ever happens to her" character that she has been playing for most of the series. When she appeared with the dyed black hair..was whoa..shes got some attitude now!
 
Let's just say that the Oberyn/Mountain story isn't over yet. ;)

I just finished the last book written and now will be avidly waiting the next season of HBO's Game of Thrones (and the last book!). they've done a pretty good job of following the books, but it would be impossible to do that completely as they are so involved and complex.
 
I've read the books so I knew what the outcome of that fight. My DS, who's fave character was Oberyn, was also pretty ticked and said he'd never watch another episode (but now he can't wait for the last 2 of the season)...so, well done HBO!!!!!

I hate Ramsey as much as I hate Cersei...hate them...they are so evil and I agree with the PP who said they want to wipe that smug look off her face.

I too love the 'new' Sansa...very very interesting storyline. Of the 'bad guy' characters I like Little Finger the most but in a love-hate sort of way.

Did anyone else think of Princess Bride during the Oberyn/Mountain fight? ...you killed my father, prepare to die...

She's another one of my favorite characters:rotfl:. I mean...I wouldn't want to KNOW them, but they are entertaining. No one eats a sausage like Ramsey and no one....NO ONE...does the witch(with a "B") face like Cersei.

I feel the same way about Little Finger. I WANT to like him...But he's got that icky creep factor. (Says the girl who actually likes Rasmey so take that for what it's worth:rotfl2:)

I did. I said as much to DH and he cracked up.

DH was shocked by the way that fight ended, I wasn't at all. As Oberyn was prancing around I was thinking "Hasn't this guy ever seen an action flick? The guy with the gut wound always has one last kill in him!" :rotfl:

I'm glad I'm not the only one who did, flipping gruesome ending to that episode.
 
My DH was shocked, too. I've read the books so I knew what happened and I was dying to tell him. It was so hard during that scene to stay quiet and not give anything away. When it was over he said he wasn't expecting that. So now he wants to know what happens to the Mountain, if he lives or dies, but I won't tell him that either.

At first I didn't like all the unexpected deaths of central characters, but now that's one of the things I like the most. NO ONE is safe and even though I know that, I still get invested in the characters. There's 1 death in particular that I really hope happens this season. I don't want to have to wait for next year for it.

This has been a good season. It's moved at a pretty fast pace and has had very few dull moments. Best season so far, I think. I wish we didn't have to wait so long between seasons. :sad1:

I am thinking it'll be the season finale...if you are thinking of the same death I am.
