Anyone watch Game of Thrones?
Comments (20)We have watched it from the beginning. Normally I am not into that kind of story line/genre, but as I've stuck with it and learned the characters, I really enjoy it. Neither of us has read the books. Tyrion definitely our favorite character, though we like Danerys and Aryra too. Love to hate Cersei and Joffrey. What I like about it is you never know what is coming next. No character is safe. Yes, it can be gory, but that's what it was. I do think they probably have women with more responsibility than what they would have really had at that time. Enjoy seeing women with "real" bodies, though they are mostly European and have a different look and attitude than what an American would have. If any of you are fans of Ben Mankiewicz from Turner Classic Movies, he does reviews of the show literally right after they play on a Show called "What the Flick." Of course, you can always watch them later. The panel discussion is helpful for those of us who have not read the books. We learned a lot by watching these. Ded, one other thing I learned is each episode opening shows the fictional locations where that episode is set. I'd love to do the actual tours of the real set locations. Here is a link that might be useful: What the Flick on Youtube...See MoreGame of Thrones
Comments (2)My grandson told us about this program before the start of the second season. Shortly thereafter, they showed all of the season one episodes, so we watched them, and have been following season two. It is great! I agree about it being violent and too much nudity, but the story makes it worthwhile. (Spartacus was the same way with violence and nudity, but we loved the storyline of that also.)...See MoreWilliams Sonoma Linens Arrived, Game of Thrones Table Complete
Comments (24)Jjam, that is exactly right! I ued to futz around with mini christmas trees on the sideboard and stuff on the table that all had to be removed when we ate. One year i did a display of nutcrackers on the dining table at different heights.....it was an engineering feat and many had to be taken down before a meal....what WAS i thinking, lol?? I do have a lovely centerpiece planned of red roses and white hydrangea for Christmas Day after the game of thrones thing is over. Wanted to share fun thing i got for the table this yesr, scrabble trays and tons of tiles, so people can make their own words / names etc.. Last year we filled our water goblets with varying heights to make notes and "played" a few simple songs by making the rims of those crystal glasses hum. and our Christmas crackers each contained one zylophone piece so we played music with those, too. And in our 70 degree temps I actually thought about making the Christmas message on our bulletin board say Winter Is Not Coming as a political message, lol!...See MoreWho else watches Game of Thrones?
Comments (13)I've watched from the beginning and thoroughly enjoy the series, even tho I have been known to watch through hands in front of my face during certain scenes. I just read somewhere that the actress who portrays Brienne of Tarth, when speaking of the up coming season - "be prepared to need therapy". Gulp. I know in the books her character died long time ago (no, didn't read the books but sometimes I get curious and visit the GOT discussion groups). She is one of my favorites. Actually I did try to read the first book in the series years ago, before I even knew it was GOT. I only made it five or six chapters before I got totally lost....See More- 7 years ago
