Honeymoon (2014) is a cautionary tale for newlyweds. Warning: this is not a chick flick with a happy ending. Well, depending on your taste, Honeymoon could be a chick flick or great popcorn flick for a girl’s night in. That is if you enjoy sappy romances that evolve into something sinister and disturbing. Rose Leslie […]
A sprawling Game of Thrones finale leaves us with plenty to think about, and plenty to look forward to. What this season finale did was essentially destroy everything you knew about Game of Thrones. Whatever characteristic or relationship defined a character for the last four seasons, it changed in this episode. People are traveling far […]
Roughly every two seasons, Game of Thrones takes an entire episode to focus solely on a single epic battle. This was one of those episodes. There are Wildlings at the gate. I love it when Game of Thrones narrows its focus like this. This is probably a drum I’ve beat too often, but this show’s […]
On this week’s Game of Thrones, it’s the battle of the century, Oberyn Martell, the Red Viper of Dorn, versus Gregor Clegane, the Mountain That Rides. Let’s get ready to…actually, a bunch of other, even more important stuff happened too. After some establishing scenes that firmly establish that Moletown is a nugget of crap smothered […]
A collection of small, yet brilliant moments made this an excellent Game of Thrones episode, all leading up to…well, a character death, if you can believe it. We begin with Jaime visiting Tyrion in jail, angry that Tyrion screwed up the deal he negotiated with Tywin to save Tyrion from a death sentence. Tyrion points […]
Tyrion’s on trial, Stannis bets on himself, and the war continues in the north on this week’s Game of Thrones. Is Tywin Lannister the key to Lannister power in King’s landing, or will it all crumble if he dies? Stannis is betting big that it will crumble, and that Tywin’s age (67) means he won’t […]
After several weeks of excellent episodes, Game of Thrones spins its wheels a bit this week. Not that it was a terrible episode, but not much happened. Of course, even if it’s a mediocre week for Game of Thrones, I’m always sad when the episode ends. I could watch three hours of this show every […]
A brilliant Game of Thrones episode lays bare the politics of King’s Landing and reveals something strange about the White Walkers. The first half of the episode mainly concerned goings on in King’s Landing. What I loved is how it made all the scheming and plotting and lying clear to the viewers. Often Westeros politics […]
Everyone is still playing the Game of Thrones, but the interesting thing this week is who actually still enjoys it. In the immediate aftermath of the murder, Sansa flees and is lead to a ship by her fool of a savior. Littlefinger is aboard the ship, all whispers and lies. He reveals the method of […]
Wedding bells are ringing in King’s Landing, and everyone is gathered together for this joyous occasion. We revisit Ramsay Snow and Theon Greyjoy, now known as Reek, to start the episode off. Ramsay and his…girlfriend?…are hunting some poor girl because Ramsay thought she made the girlfriend jealous. The girl is torn apart by dogs. All […]
