Game of Thrones' George R. R. Martin Reacts to Fans viewing The Red Wedding

So as you know, earlier in the week I posted a recap of Sundays night's episode of Game of Thrones.  A couple of days later a video of fans reacting to this episode surfaced online; I didn't blog about it.  

But...

Conan O'Brien had the infamous author, George R. R. Martin as a guest on his show and showed him the video.  Check it out.

And The Best-Written TV Show Ever is...

It feels like I'm having Déjà vu or something.  I could've sworn I told somebody the other day at work "Game of Thrones is so well-written, but whether it can beat The Sopranos, I don't know." And Lord and behold, The Sopranos is named the best-written TV show ever.  Too weird for words.

Don't worry fans of M*A*S*H, Seinfield, Mad Men, The West Wing, Breaking Bad, Six Feet Under, and many others; Your show was on this same list of top 101 best-written shows.  Over the weekend, the Writer's Guild of America released its list and TIME magazine ran an editorial about it.  You can read about it here, and check out the list here.

Gay of Thrones: Game of Thrones Episode 9 Red Wedding Recap

OMG, this is absolutely hilarious.  I just love Jonathan!

"WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS???"
He's the gay hairstylist who's been giving the recaps for the episodes of Game of Thrones.  And after this past Sunday's episode I needed this.  For those who have not seen the series or read the books, it's probably not a good idea to watch this.

Gay of Thrones: Game of Thrones Episode Recaps

OMG, I can't believe I missed these videos.  They are absolutely, absolutely hilarious! Sorry, I just had to say it twice.  Courtesy of Funny or Die, the video introduces us to Jonathan, and there's three things he loves - "Hair, a fierce brow and Game of Thrones."

I have posted all three videos below.  Enjoy.

Regardless of what Funny or Die states - these are spoilers, so if you haven't seen last Sunday's episode, I don't recommend watching them.

A Dragon Is Not A Slave! She's Coming For You Joffrey!

Wow, if you missed the recent episode of Game of Thrones this past Sunday - you better watch it - this is a spoiler.

How many of you knew Daenerys was going to set up the slavemaster?  I knew it, and I also knew she understood everything that bastard was saying.  No, I wasn't cheating - I've never read the books, but something was telling me she
wouldn't give up her dragon babies for anything or anyone.

Daenerys is the rightful heir to the Iron Throne and this bitch is coming to rain fire on Joffrey and his band of misfit toys!!!  

I'm so excited - I can't wait to see that boy burn to a crisp.

For a full recap of Sunday's episode - go here.

What a Hot Mess: Seeking Robb Stark Look-alike from GoT - w4m

"Please only respond to this post if you look like Robb Stark!  I would appreciate pictures, but please, no names.  In order to stay as true to the fantasy as possible, I ONLY want you to refer to yourself as Robb Stark.  You will need to provide your own clothing.  Please keep in mind that you will have recently participated in a battle and been thrown in a dungeon, so you will not be wearing your nicest furs.  I'm looking for a Stark in the streets but a wildling in the sheets."

Omg! What a Hot Mess!  "I'm looking for a Stark in the streets, but a Wildling in the sheets." LMAO!

I don't know what's a hotter mess - the fact that she bought a $34,000 replica of the Iron Throne featured on the television series, Game of Thrones, or that she posted this Craigslist ad.  It's absolutely hilarious.  Read the entire Craigslist ad below.

Game of Thrones Wish-Fulfillment

We, Game of Thrones fans, wish things could have been a little more different.  Especially when they killed of our hero, Ned Stark!  Now we're all wishing for Joffrey's death, and a gruesome one at that.  Well, the folks over at College Humor have put together an excellent parody titled, Game of Thrones Wish-Fulfillment, which finds all of our wishes becoming a reality.  Check it out, it's pretty humorous.

I Came Home To FIRE and ICE

So I get home from work last night, cook dinner, and open up my TV Guide and Lord and behold, I find the following spread!  OMG! I'm so, so, so excited!
If you're a Game of Thrones fan you should be too!  The White Walkers are coming and it's going to be a battle for the ages.  Executive producer, Dan Weiss, states "This the season we've been waiting for and there's enormous shock and suprise".

And if you thought the Houses of Targaryen, Lannister and Stark were open to compromise, think again.  Not if Daenerys has something to say about it.  Besides, do you blame her?  She was robbed of her family, her rightful throne and is the only one left in her bloodline.  Ohhhh, I'm thinking she will have something to show for it.   
'By the end of Season 3, Daenerys is on the rise and impossible to ignore while others will fall and be forgotten. "What's at stake for all the families in their fight," says Weiss, "is the survival of their name and the continuance of their line."'
Check out trailer #2 for Game of Thrones Season 3, it's absolutely fantastic!
And while you're at it, pick up the TV Guide at your local supermarket, it's a really great article! You can collect all 3 covers!

The Nerd of Thrones!

I'm not sure how many of you watch Game of Thrones.  If you're not watching, I don't know what's wrong with you!  It's like the best show ever!  Well... aside from The Walking Dead, Spartacus, True Blood, Dexter, Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire and many others, but that's besides the point.

In Game of Thrones everyone wants to sit on the "Throne of Swords".  At the present time, the god-awful teeny-bopper king, Joffrey who nobody can stand and want dead, is sitting on this chair.

Well.... here comes the Nerd of Thrones!  LOL, yes, someone made a throne out of computer keyboards.  Quite hilarious, but I'm sure you gamers and computer geeks are eager to make one.
The artist, Mike DeWolfe has released the following statement:

The Throne of Nerds is made in honor of the Throne of Swords from the Game of Thrones TV series and fantasy series. It is constructed from 20+ computer keyboard mounted to a chair. The keyboards and have been shaped and melted to follow the form of the chair, the shape of the user, and to meld together into a combined whole.

The underlying message is one of suffering. The keyboards have been melted and warped. They’re made to twist to fit, but at the same time that renders them unuseable because they cannot fulfill their intended purpose. The keyboards are black and silver, and the underlying chair is white, but those colours have been replaced with black, in whole or in random splotches.

The keyboard warping includes the scorching of almost all of the ESC keys to symbolize how impossible it can be escape suffering and blackness. The only key that is consciously left undamaged is the ESC key on the highest positioned keyboard.

Around the back, the keyboard cables have been arranged like human hair with an attempt to braid the cables that is ultimately left in a tangle. This denotes how good plans and order can degenerate into chaos.

The Most Honest Three Minutes In Television History

To say this video has gone viral is an understatement.  And why?  Because it honestly is the most honest three minutes in television history you'll ever see, and I'm sure you can spend 3 minutes of your life watching it.  I did, and glad I did so.
I have never seen this show, but I may have to re-think that.  Wow. Wow. Wow.

Hello Joffrey!

Why does this sound so good to me right now?  LOL.  I'm sorry, I certainly don't condone Dexter Morgan for his murderous ways; He's killing the scum of the earth who never got their due punishment for the crimes they committed.  But Joffrey Baratheon on the other hand, I CAN'T STAND HIM!!!!  ugh!  I know it's just a show, but I hate this 20 year kid (15 on the show)!  Well, the character anyway :-)
For those who don't know Joffrey...  He is a character on one of the best shows on television, Game of Thrones.  He is played by the actor, Jack Gleeson, and currently the King sitting on the Iron Throne.   Whoever sits on this throne is ruler of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros.  In short, he is a cruel, sadistic, and tyrannical ruler!!  And that may be putting it mildly.

Movies to Watch - Game Change [Premieres this Saturday on HBO]

"One of the most memorable moments of Election Night in 2008 came when Sarah Palin joined John McCain after his concession speech. As she walked onto the platform Palin looked visibly angry, not someone resigned to a loss but someone still ripe for a fight. Apparently the reality of the situation had yet to sink in and Palin was still in campaign (i.e. pit bull) mode. What prompted her anger was later revealed by political journalists John Heilemann and Mark Halperin in their best-seller "Game Change" and acts as the climax to the HBO movie based on the book that premieres this weekend. And, yes, she was pissed." [edge]

People who have already seen this movie are raving about it, but it doesn't come without the backlash from the folks on the right - the Reds.  To put it in simple terms, instead of people placing aside their political differences when watching this film, there's the pre-conceived notion that Hollywood was being biased in the making of this film.

Well, I kinda have to agree with that; Where's the first part of the book by Halperin and Heilemann?  You know - the part where Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were at each other's throats?  But place this aside for the moment, because we all know that a majority of the REDs would agree that Palin wasn't fit to handle the job.  And even more were weary of her becoming President if something would have happened to John McCain.  But going back to the book the film is based on - more than 300 people were interviewed who were involved in the McCain/Palin campaign, so it begs the question, how could it be false if all these people were involved in the campaign?

Watch the trailer, it's definitely is an award-winning film and makes for must-see-TV.  It's definitely something Ryan and I will be watching this Saturday night on HBO - 8PM Central

Movies to Watch - Game Change

I'm sure all of you know by now I'm a political junkie, and that nothing pleases me more than to piss off Gay Republicans (oxy), or Republicans in general.  haha, but I still love ya! :-).  I'm just kidding.

Everyone has their views, and I respect that. So long as it doesn't constitute using vulgar words or calling each other names. I'm cool with debating religion or politics.  I enjoy it.

My only thing is... 

I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE!!!

A couple of weeks ago HBO released their teaser for it's upcoming adaptation of Mark Halperin and John Heilemann's book Game Change, and it seems like it's going to be a thriller of a movie.  Just so you know, Mark Halperin was suspended in 2004 from MSNBC for calling President Obama "a dick" on the Morning Joe show.  Regardless, the movie is about all the inside information Mark received from the McCain and Palin camps during the 2008 Presidential campaign.  And it doesn't look very good for Sarah Palin.  I'm thinking she won't be portrayed very nicely.  The movie stars Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin, Ed Harris as John McCain, Woody Harrelson as Steve Schmidt and many others.

While the book does mention the Hillary Clinton-Barack Obama primary fight, their story is not in this movie.  This is more about what transpired when McCain chose Sarah Palin as his running mate.

Ding Dong, The Witch is Not Dead!

If you're reading this, stop.  Have you already caught up on all your True Blood episodes?  If you haven't, leave now, because I'm going to write shit you probably don't want to know.
What I'm still trying to figure out is why the hell Marnie let Jesus and Lafayette into a room with a dead body? Did she do this on purpose? In either case, at the end of the latest episode, Jesus unbinded Antonia from Marnie and allowed Sookie to survive from the ring of fire.  
All the while, the crazy vampires, Eric, Pam, Jessica, and Bill, who come to destroy the witches' cove are outside arguing if they should save Sookie or Not, big brother comes in her defense, the witches' vampire shield (much like a bug shield that will zap you into smithereens) comes down, the vampires rush in, Eric kills one of the witches, sucks on his heart like he's drinking a sangria out of a 7-Eleven Slurpee, and they shoot the crap out of the wicked witch of the west, Marnie.  
But guess what????  The Witch is not actually dead!  She jumps into Lafayette's body at the end of the episode as a cliffhanger.

In other True Blood news... Sam loses his brother Tommy to a pack of wolves who beat him to a pulp in the previous week's episode.  Sam goes on a rampage and goes after the said wolves with the help of Alcide who btw, finds out his girlfriend Debbie was shagging/not shagging Sam's girlfriend's ex-husband, Marcus.  After Sam throws a few punches, and a couple of "Fuck You's," he allows him to live, but Alcide kills him anyway.
Oh... and we find out the fairies' taste in men.  They love having sex with fat, burly men like Andy.  Geezus, couldn't they have chosen Jason Stackhouse?  Andy, really?  What the hell were the producers drinking.  Yes, I meant to say drinking.

Stay tuned for the final episode on Sunday, September 12th!

Movies to Watch: Margin Call

"SOMETHING BIG IS GOING DOWN!"
Wanna know what really happened on Wall Street over the 24-hour period during the early stages of the financial crisis?  Watch this trailer to Margin Call, and you'll be surprised.  Based on true stories and true events, the movie boasts actors such as Jeremy Irons, Zachary Quinto, Kevin Spacey, Penn Badgley, Stanley Tucci, Demi Moore.  Seriously, the list goes on and on with fabulous actors.
Earlier in the year, Ryan and I watched the HBO movie, Too Big To Fail, and it was exceptionally great.  It "tells the minute-by-minute, seat-of-the-pants story of how Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson (William Hurt) tries to wrangle the arrogant CEOs of the giant financial institutions into compromise in order to prevent worldwide depression." I can't say it any better than Linda Stasi here:
They cheat. They steal. They lie. They leave hardworking families homeless. They undermined the entire economy of the United States for their own personal greed. They don't go to jail and still get billions in bonuses. Who are they? They are the Wall Street SOBs who brought the US to its knees, that's who. Too bad to be true? No -- too bad to be fake.
I think Margin Call will be equally as good, really looking forward to it.  Check out the trailer here:

True Blood Shocker!

Want to know where Sookie ended up?  Want to know who told her, "Sookie, you are mine" at the end of Season 3?  And.......

Want to see who makes a surprising return with their very own Fairy Godmother?

Then, you'll want to see this.  

HBO has released the first 3 minutes of their True Blood Season 4 premiere, and it's going to be ridiculously incredible!  I cannot wait for the full episode to air on June 26th!

As you may know, at the end of season 3, Sookie was swooshed away by her Fairy Godmother... well, she ends up in fairyland, where everyone is chomping on some fruit that light's up like a Glo-worm.  Funny thing is, it seems like everyone that eats the fruit, loses their memories, at least for the time-being.

Next, in what is the most memorable moment for me, Barry the bellboy makes a grand return, and with a Fairy Godmother whos' f*ckn hot, to say the least!  Of course, it wouldn't be HBO without the fairies :-) No pun intended.


If you've read the books, or know a little about True Blood, Sookie and Bill's relationship hits a snag, so you know this season is going to be about who catches the fairy's affection. In this 30 second trailer below, you'll find out who said the line, "Sookie, you are mine," at the end of season 3. Was it Alcide, Eric, or Bill?
