  1. There would have been no point to their story had they died right there. You had to expect a save. There was 0% chance they were going to die there.
  2. That's correct, Dobb, And Dany certainly isn't being set up as some pure and noble ruler. She plays at being Aegon, but doesn't have his level-headedness or sense of mercy. Dany is rash and arrogant. And then one has to wonder if she doesn't have a touch of the Targ madness. It's going to be a messy affair, for sure.
  3. I like the Dany as antagonist theory, except for the fact that we know "the dragon must have three heads." Jon leading the fight against Dany for the Seven Kingdoms doesn't work under that condition. Unless it's an "once an ally, now the enemy" situation, and another Dance of the Dragons takes place. But that seems like a lot of story that has to be played out.
  4. Reminder: GoT is not taking Memorial Day weekend off this year. They're playing the season straight through this year--no breaks.
  5. I don't expect much out of it.
  6. I think it's solid sci-if that can succeed today. If there is any issue it's because Elysium rips it off pretty blatantly, but does a poor job with the subject matter. I could see people groaning, and wondering why they're making another one of those.
  7. I loved the series
  8. Except he's producing all of the Alien movies. They all fall under Scott Free Productions. As to Prometheus, it started out being an Alien prequel, became something related but different, and is now back to being a prequel. I think it's just how things played out.
  9. Ridley can be brilliant, but he doesn't always make the best choices. I'm pretty sure Prometheus is on him. Or, more directly, going with the Lindelof script is on him. For all intents and purposes he's running the Alien show right now.
  10. I like this casting
  11. I've always wondered if Benjen and his rangers haven't been shadowing the Others this entire time, tracking their movements and watching them. As for the show I could see them combining these characters, but I honestly don't know. I just know we're getting someone to save them based upon the season 6 trailers.
  12. Into Darkness would have been much better had Cumberbatch's character just been another enhanced human from Khan's crew. Then we get to the end of the movie where we see them all of that crew in stasis, and as they pan over them we see one that says "Khan." I'm not even a Trek guy and I think that would have been awesome. The alternate timeline has our heroes dodging an even bigger bullet than they faced.
  13. So, who do you think is going to save Bran and Meera: Coldhands, Benjen, or "Benhands"?
  14. I don't understand how studios keep letting Lindelof work on their movies. Everything he's written has gotten hammered over script issues.
  15. Early buzz is not good. They're calling it a soulless movie with too many characters, too many bad performances, and too much CGI. That said, it should do well on these forums.
  16. Brienne is heading south, so she almost certainly won't be around for that.
  17. From what I've been reading it was a constant laugh fest; and there are a few cut scenes showcasing more of their... relationship
  18. This episode gave a very WW2 Japan vibe to Windemere, and I dug that commentary. Fighting imperialism with imperialism, and feeling justified in their actions. Freeing other worlds from NUNS influence by oppressing and exploiting them. Very fanatical in their logic. Is it too on the nose? I'm not really sure.
