Saturday’s GoT Laughs: Team Lannister

Filed Under: Awards, Humor, Media

Let’s start this new series of posts with the only appropriate opener:

Nick Larter's comment: "It would seem that possession is no longer an abstract concept."

And now the tune by Less Talk more Monkey that Dinklage might be whistling to himself these days (which incidentaly is also a favourite of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau himself, no kidding). If you missed this video, well … you shouldn’t have!

Hear Me Roar: We plan to reserve Saturdays to some good ol’ Game of Thrones fun. Mostly in the form of images making rounds on ‘teh interwebz’, but also some videos, parodies, and what not, including our very own exclusive comic strip by Mike Rosenzweig, The Pointy End.

P.S. If you recognize yourself as the author of one of the featured images, identify yourself in the comments, and get the props you deserve!

    Here’s the only one I’ve ever made, with some help from my cousin, for A Song of Ice and Wire, a GoT/Wire mashup tumblr. It contains a pretty big season 1 spoiler, so don’t click unless you’ve watched the show:

    There’s lots of awesome stuff out there, though, I’ll see what I can dig up.

    Is this about the ‘Peter has a huge ego now’ thing? I don’t even know where that started. Is it because some fans feel aggrieved that he forgot to thank GRRM in his speech?

    Unless something changes, I don’t think you will be seeing one anytime in the foreseeable future. Let’s go down the list, shall we?

    Rickard (Ned’s dad): Burned alive by the mad king.
    Brandon (Ned’s bro): Strangled to death trying to save his father.
    Eddard: Lost his head to the inbred boy king Joffrey.
    Robb: Betrayed and murdered at the Red Wedding by Roose Bolton and the Freys. Body is desecrated.
    Catelyn: Murdered next to her son at the Red Wedding. Body is stripped and thrown into a river, and transformed into a zombie by Beric Dondarrion.
    Sansa: Held hostage and beaten by Joffrey.
    Arya: Nearly killed several times. Becomes a servant, then a hostage, and is now training as an assassin across the narrow sea.
    Bran: Escaped Theon Turncloak and fled north of the Wall. Is taken in by an undead corpse who lives in the root system of a weirwood tree.
    Rickon: Escaped Theon only to disappear with Osha.
    Winterfell: Razed by Ramsay Bolton, and burned to a shell of its former self. Now belongs to Ramsay Bolton via his marriage to fake Arya.

    So, yeah. It doesn’t feel good to be a Direwolf.

    No, it’s just a shot of Pete looking awesome with his Emmy. It’s directed at any negative critics of the show in general.

    Love it! I’ve recently started watching The Wire and am on season 3 now. Of course that gives me the opposite issue from most people when it comes to Aidan Gillen…whenever he shows up in The Wire I go “Littlefinger!” where most fans of both shows would probably say “Carcetti!” in GoT :P

    Maybe others have already pointed that out before, though..

    The same could be siad for the Lannisters

    Tywin Lannister: Killed by his own son
    Jaime Lannister: Has his hand cut off and might be lead to his death by someone he trusts
    Cersei Lannister: Imprisoned and puclically humiliated
    Kevan Lannister: Killed by a eununch
    Lancel Lannister: Heavilly wounded in battle
    Tyrion Lannister: Has his nose sliced off and currently on the run

    So in the end I guess it doesn’t feel good to be a Lannister either.

    I watched the Red Riding trilogy on Netflix streaming and a lot of the time I couldn’t understand what anyone was saying. I really wish they would have had subtitles for that. Yes, Sean Bean played a real disgusting person in the first movie. And I absolutely couldn’t believe he got away with what he did for so long. It’s almost like he was living in amoral Westeros land there.

    Oh yes, I forgot that Mark Addy was in the last movie. He played a real hero in that one, if I recall.

    I saw it with spanish subtitles. Lucky me because that was a strong northern England accent I guess!!!

    knowsomething: he got away with what he did for so long.

    Well, with that kind of police anyone could! and also he was not alone in crime.
    Yorkshire is Westeros, only the bad guys are in the north. “To the north! Where we do what we want!!!”. Assholes.

    knowsomething: Oh yes, I forgot that Mark Addy was in the last movie. He played a real hero in that one, if I recall.

    Yes, the only hero, he´s the lawyer who saves the last girl. “I´m a soul man, myself”… King Robert said while smoking a joint… A king has his vices, no matter the century.
    In one shot on the streets, I saw a graffiti: “Fuck de argies”… I´m Argentine so that made me laugh. I wonder if that will be written there from the war in 1983?
