Even though i've read the books.. this is awesome... any ideas where i can get the blu-ray here in kl?
That is a good question, LOL! Anyway, the feature does clear things up a bit for me. I always wonder why Viserys was being saved by the order of Aerys but not Aegon. Now, it makes more sense.

Awesome post xy. I really like how the narration is done by the characters in the series. The bluray seems like a must have collectible.
I like the ones done by Mark Addy (King Robert) and Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister) best. I'm totally amazed by how much details GRRM had developed for the world of Westerosi. I even think it top LOTR in that department. No doubt LOTR is still a classic though.
I bleed it out, Diggin' deeper just to throw it away!

It is a good to see how the story is adapted to have Littlefinger persuasion affect the Tyrells future. Emphasizing Margaery's intention to become the Queen make this character even more interesting than what she was being written. Ohhhh, the baby dragons are so adorable. I will miss them when they grow up and cause chaos.
Just plain set up...No nudity or sex scenes or even child birth (dragons/shadow)... But a good set up episode.

Enjoyed this week episode. Arya is adorable and the scene with Jaqen adds another depth to an already complex story. I too enjoy watching Stannis grow in the series but not as much as i enjoy watching Tywin on the screen. My favourite scene in this ep tho, is the babt dragon scene. Its a cute scene and a good change of scenery in this ep, and watching those 2 fine looking ladies feeding the drake is akin to watching 2 children playing with fire - in a way that's quite true isn't it ? haha.

It is meant to be an assassination and Brienne is blamed for it. So 'no shadow tear through the camp'.

still reading book one
still wondering who's the real parent of Jon Snow... with the death of Ned, i guess it only left Ser Howland Reed, the sole survivor who knows what happened in the Tower of Joy when they tried to rescue Lyanna I guess it's already hinted that Jon could be the child of Lyanna and Rhaegar, Lyanna could have died from child birth.
if Jon is the son from Lyanna and Rhaegar, that explains why Ned was so secretive about Jon's true identity, and why he send him to the wall to join the black. because he'll be definitely dead the instant Robert knew Rhaegar has an heir. with Jon joining the Black, hence forfeiting any claims to the throne, and keeping him safe.

jon's father is obviously ned stark. but the identity of his mother will be revealed (to the readers) in book three.
Oh and we still don' know the real identity of Jon Snow's parents. But Emino's hint is what i'm leaning towards to.

I always get the impression that Ned felt awfully sad whenever he's with Jon. Like he had to go down to some painful memory lane and reminiscent a tragic event. It's not a pain from shame but regret and sorrow. Like being reminded of his dead daughter.
