    In my opinion computer graphics can pretty much emulate human movement already.Its only facial expressions that computer created characters cant get quite right.

    Yea which means that with some clever shots they probably can get away with only actually havin 50 actors in a field hacking each other.

    How could I've missed this, they did cut the peach scene! :O
    Very funny meme though :P

    The episode was very good, really liked Qarth and the scenes at King's Landing...
    Pity Bran and Osha have taken Jojen's and Meera's parts; Stannis and Davos are ever improving; didn't like much Loras giving all the blame to Stannis though, as if they had already forgotten about Brienne...

    BTW in two weeks the GoT RPG for most consoles and PC is going to be released, saw few previews and looks nice :)
    (Conleth Hill "Varys" and James Cosmo "Lord Commander Mormont" are featured in the game ^^)

    I keep forgetting to post this for weeks, but it still tickles me now and then... when watching Game of Thrones with Secura, upon the steampunk cog introduction, she goes "What is the spinny thing hovering over the world?"

    I couldn't stop laughing, and gave her a look going "Are you serious?".

    Excellent episode. For once no dull moments at all. All the scenes were quite good.

    Arya's story is getting better by the day and I'm looking forward to more of her scenes with Tywin Lannister. Did the little girl make him uncomfortable by staring?
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    In the books Jamie tells a story about how Tywin Lannister ruined a man's evening by just staring at him throughout dinner. And here we have Arya looking at him right in the eyes until he asks her to 'fetch the water'!!

    Then there's the Night Watch. Somehow I always thought that the Fist of the First Men was supposed to be in the middle of a forest. Never imagined it to be a cold desert kind of place. Still we'll get to see Ygritte soon.
    And finally for a change I liked the parts with Daenerys in this episode. Emilia Clarke is looking prettier then ever, and more importantly Jorah Mormont is finally set to take a bigger role.
    Centuries come and go without a person like that coming into the world. There are times when I look at you and I still can't believe you're real.
    I guess someone forgot to tell him you don't lay it on so thick on the first date.

    Edit:
    It does appear they've done away with the part where they send Myrcella to Dorne altogether. Pity because it was a perfect opportunity to see Joffery get 'impslapped' again.

    Hey, I did elaborate saying I knew it was supposed to be the sun, I wanted to know what all the spinning rings around it had to do with anything!
