Hector wrote:I felt the last episode, The Pointy End, was given a lot of ground to cover, I mean literally - how far did the Starks army travel from one scene to the next? Anyone else noticed that there are also alot of smaller almost none characters who have been given fairly lengthly scenes in this series? I'm starting to wonder if, in the greater scheme of things, Game of Thrones will be a story about the children and not the older generation...

I'm loving this at the mo - just caught up on teh last three episodes. Extremely brutal, enthralling stuff.
Oh and Cat, yep, it definitely was his tongue that was ripped out :lol:

A part of me is glad I'm not familiar with the story. I don't know if I would want to watch it knowing what's going to happen.Spoiler: show

Just out of interest Hector, are you one of the maby fans upset by this recent turn of events? Do you wish things had been done differently for the TV series?
Hector wrote:So far. A solid start to Season 2.
1- "The North Remembers" did a great job of introtucing and re-introducing, and setting all the pieces in motion.
2- "The Night Lands" was a bit of step back for me. I can't believe I'm saying this but, too many sex scenes!! The episode was a mere contination of the opener but with the pawns just being moved one more space. Compare it to the first seasons episode 2 where you had Jon saying goodbye to Ayra, Bran, Robb, and Ned - (and the big finish with Bran and the wolf) powerful scenes which pretty much formed the emotion centre for the entire season. I wished they'd jettisoned the Stannis and Dany stuff to a later episode and brought more of Ayra's storyline forward to this episode - then the party can really start!!
