I'm not sure I understand this. Who would Bronn get to kill and why?
poorly worded on my part; i forget exactly how it went in the book but basically tyrion hasn't forgiven his father for what he did and payback's a mother fricker. i think bronn factors in as the sellsword that would exact said payback.

Nothing in my past two posts spoils anything for anyone, so GFY


Books' post, to me, is way worse and fairly obvious.

Take it to the book readers thread. The end.

DON'T TALK ABOUT STUFF THAT'S ALREADY HAPPENED IN THE BOOK. PEOPLE WILL GO INSSAAANNNEEEEE!!!

Anyway, I get what you are saying now.

And FWIW, I understand how it is inconsiderate to talk about favorite characters in the book and such now. I apologize for that. But our last few posts are about stuff that has already happened in the show. Ridiculous.

I disagree. The wall is usually an alternative to capital punishment, think of it as a suspended sentence.


I still think "Holy crap, white walkers (that are actually all black) are back! Tell the people!" would count as extenuating circumstances, but thinking of it that way it makes a bit more sense.

Hey, I understand some of my past posts have been inconsiderate, and I apologized for that. But my last few posts have been about the show for the most part. It's just comparing how it was done in the book to the show. Not giving anything away.

How about, for the sake of the non-book readers, we only discuss the happenings in the HBO Game of Thrones, and pretend the books do not exist?

That should be off limits here. That's for the book readers thread.

ANY comparison to the book shouldn't be in this thread. That's my thoughts.

But that's the whole point of the Night's watch:
quote:

Hear my words and bear witness to my vow. Night gathers and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness, I am the watcher on the walls. I am the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the night’s watch. For this night and all the nights to come.

It was pretty freaking funny. If you watch his live reaction, he screams at one of his friends "no I'm not alright, they just killed my niqqa ned."

Quoting him not being racist.

a thread for people who have read ALL the books; i haven't so i'm not touching that thread. i see no problem whatsoever in comparing events that already happened on the show to how they were done in the books if they give nothing away to the future of the series. if people want to be 100% surprised about what happens on the show they should probably stay away from anything on the internet having to do with the series because spoilers are everywhere - even the comments section on that youtube video of the guy mourning his **** ned's passing.

Is the fourth book bad like people say?


There are a few POV characters who are tedious. But some of the other POV's are greatness IMO. I would say more in the "I read the book thread..."
