Tricks and Tweets
Our usual weekly Tweetsplosion! We (myself @Axechucker with the aid of our loyal yet-slightly-dangerous @The_Rabbit01) followed the #GameOfThrones hashtag, and we rounded up some of the more interesting (or relevant) tweets for episode six, “A Golden Crown,” written by Jane Espenson, David Benioff, and D.B. Weiss, and directed by Daniel Minahan.
Blah, blah, blah, spoilers, blah, blah…
We’ll kick it off with a quasi-celebrity shout-out:
@MoTancharoen: I cannot wait to watch @JaneEspenson ‘s #GameOfThrones episode. Quite the Sunday night treat.
Thanks, Maurissa! Why, I’m feeling almost… Whedonesque!
As usual, various Game of Thrones fans expressed their excitement as the hour approached, their hopes and dreams there for all to see:
@jacobite11: Wish I was a three-eyed crow so I could tweet and watch at the same time
@roberthunter1: If your not watching #gameofthrones slap your self
@_jilly: Dear Viserys, once more, please don’t get drunk and piss off your brother in law tonight.
@esc_key: Jane Espenson’s (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) episode of #GameofThrones is about to air on HBO! I’m really excited.
@JadeyMcGrady: please. keep it in your medievalish pants tonight.
@beng1978: Come on #GameOfThrones – more male nudity?? Let’s hope so!
@quietphysicist: Dear burglars: watching #GameOfThrones now and am oblivious to anything not on my TV. If you ransack my place, please take TV last. Thx
@zakigrant: If you’re not watching Game of Thrones you either haven’t got Broadband, Sky/Cable or you’re just a massive tit.
@miafarradaily: Finally! There had better be some Jon Snow in this episode OR ELSE….
Uh.
Anywho, the music and / or opening credits are almost always referenced:
@freakiChinedu: am I the only 1 that thinks the SoundTrack for #GameOfThrones is Totally Awesome… #nw Episode 6 :)
You are not! Witness:
@WorksInTheory79: Guy in front of me at Starbucks was totally humming #GameOfThrones theme. Don’t worry, I realize I am just as nerdy for recognizing it…
It’s all good. I hum that thing all the time. The metal version, mostly. Well, it’s not quite a hum, more like that sound you make when you press your teeth together, purse your lips, and force air between your teeth in that cool sort of “I’m trying to sound like a crunchy guitar groove” noise that you learn as a kid listening to Rush’s Tom Sawyer and—
Sansa: “Wait, wait.”
FaB: “Yes?”
Sansa: “I just remembered I don’t care.”
(Brutal.)
So! Morning in King’s Landing! The birds are chirping, the weather is pleasant. You’re Ned, and you’ve just woken up from what you hope was a really bad dream, and the first thing you see is—
@Blackfish_Blues: Cersei, Robert… Ned wakes and thinks he’s in hell
@ReallyAlly: What a horrible thing to wake up to.
@silkskinned: JESUS CHRIST IT’S A LANNISTER GET BACK IN THE CARRIAGE
That sort of sums it up. Minus the, uh, carriage. Silky, what were you smoking?
So Cersei starts mouthing off, and you know what happens then:
@MooreSaiyan: WOW! You’re about to get…….yep you just got hit.
@onlytheholly: YES! SLAP THAT BITCH!
@joeygeko: Robert hits Cersei, my mother shouts: ‘About time!’ #gameofthrones #momsFORspousalabuse
@MikeyGorman: Watching #GameofThrones . It is not often I enjoy seeing a woman slapped. Cersei needs another one.
@_ALOiBAF_: “Wear it in silence or I’ll honor you again.” Holy. Shit. This scene yo.
@gavinathomson: “Wear it in silence or I’ll honour you again” Classic
Classic indeed. Very glad they included that line!
@Ajanelewis: Lena Headey is so spot on as Cersei it’s insane.
@cdeminski: I agree King Robert, hitting your wife is def. NOT kingly.
@amarettosaurus: “send a raven” is my new comeback
@Rizzz: “Yellow haired shits.” Tee hee.
@ReallyAlly: Yes, please go hunting Robert
We shift to Vaes Dothrak, where Dany plays with eggs, and Lady Gaga—wait, what?
@silkskinned: ROOMMATE STOP TALKING ABOUT LADY GAGA WHILE DANY IS ONSCREEN
@lucchaser: Is she going to have herself some scramble dragon eggs
@dev1antl0ve: this girl done lost her mind….
@TehNickU: If this bitch hatches a dragon, I’m going to flip shit.
I always wanted to see that.
Back at Winterfell, we get a nice tense scene between Theon and Robb. A raven has brought ill tidings, though Bran, riding on Dancer with his new saddle (sans booby trap), still doesn’t know about all that went down in King’s Landing.
@jlondon81: I swear those ravens get around quick in Westeros!
@cynicgrrl: Oh Robb. *dreamy sigh*
@pigeonspotting: Moar Robb and his sexy ginger beard
Robb gets more love than Theon, but I thought Alfie Allen was excellent in this scene. His eyes have that hungry, wounded look. And he delivers “It’s not my family” with just the right balance of irritation and affront.
Bran gets lost—and then found. By the oddest person…
@Fraserburn: Why is Nymphadora Tonks trying to steal Bran Starks horse?
@Monrreal: Hey look it’s Tonks!
@SCHirst: It’s Tonks! ……oooo shit wait, wrong movie. lol
@mherr1979: OSHA!!!
@les111280: I think it’s pretty awesome to see Natalia Tena playing Osha in #gameofthrones.
@OhMyCarlisle: I suddenly have an interest in Game of Thrones. Tonks!!!
@mercersmercer: My crazy prediction: Osha to be Queen by series end.
That is a little crazy. I would put her 135,897th in line for the throne.
Of course this act of aggression does not go unpunished, as Robb arrives and kills one man, disarms Osha, then holds her at bay with one hand while he kills a second man. Would Jon Snow finally admit Ser Rodrik’s training was worth a damn? Cassel’s methods are superior to wildling training, clearly. It’s the sideburns.
@silkskinned: “Piss on Mance Rayder”? Didn’t Tyrion do that in, like, the second episode? #instantrimshot
@jnyfer: Poor Bran, people are always trying to kill him.
@Paco_ICEandFIRE: OMFG GOD ROBB WAS SO SEXY THERE WITH HIS SWORD ALL NICE N OUT
Paco is all about the sexy.
Theon saved the day. And Robb questioned it. Though there were other questions left unanswered:
@mherr1979: Where the hell are Grey Wind and Summer?!
@socratesmaura: Where are the direwolves?
@miafarradaily: Oh screw you, HBO. Where are my DIREWOLVES?
A distinct lack of doggies. I’m not sure if it’s because they were just too hard to train, or what. This scene would have needed additional training, what with all the gut-ripping and stuff. It doesn’t seem like something the producers would have just shrugged off and not tried.
So back to the Dothrakis… we join Daenerys Targaryen, wife of the Khal, the great Khaleesi, who is busy enjoying a meal.
@amarettosaurus: Mmmm, heart.
@ForReelBlog: Dany just gave a new meaning to “eat your heart out.”
@thellou: Aaaand #GameOfThrones has become the grossest show to watch while I’m trying to eat.
@jnyfer: what the hell is Daenerys eating?! EWWWWW looks like something from trueblood.
@beatccr: I bet that heart tastes like cookies in real life
@bibliophilegirl: Also, Danerys’ steadily-growing badassery #GoldenCrown #dragoneggs #Couldyoueatawholehorseheart
@Jambi_Bum: The Dany chapters are so much better on the show than in the books.
@Krytella: Mmm, just let me lick that blood off Dany’s face.
Memo to Emilia Clarke: You were quite inspiring in this scene, and you have many fervent new fans, many of whom regularly post on our site. So for your peace of mind, Krytella is not the fan who asked us to ask you for your phone number. Thank you for your time. –Mgmt
I loved it when Drogo lifted Dany and carried her around the room. Powerful. The Khal got some attention from Twitter:
@StoneyboBoney: HOLY CRAP SHE ATE A HORSE AND DROGO GOT HOT. #GameofThrones #RocksmyWorld
@gusandleo: Well that’s very… iron rich… for the baby. And she’s got something nice to focus on… *hurk*
@MsInformation: I am completely down with the whole Khal and Khalisi thing. I just love them. One of the few happy couplings on #GameofThrones
@pigeonspotting: Khal Drogo and his eyeliner are so fine
@AltiusTendo: Khal Drogo is just plain sexy.
@imcloudbusting: I love that Danny and Drogo are eyefucking while she eats a horses heart. OTP
I saw it as being closer to eyeforeplay. YMMV.
Rhaego!
@IanMenard: She’s preggo with Rhaego!
@Ajanelewis: Rhaego! Rhaego! Rhaego!
@hornythomas: These Dothraki are big fans of the Johnny Depp vehicle, “Rango.”
Viserys and Ser Jorah stand back; Jorah quietly translates everything the crazy old Dothraki woman is screaming. Viserys is typically and appropriately emo.
@valeriemeachum: Quick on the uptake, you are, Viserys. *snerk* Better get used to looking worried…
@lucchaser: & boy wonder twin storms off to turn himself into a bucket of water so no one can tell that he’s crying
@TheMichaelMoran: I’ll tell you what Julian Assange, you’re making a big mistake nicking those Kinder Eggs
@SCHirst: I need a large army! lol. I love Viserys!
@Blackfish_Blues: I never really understood why I liked Jorah in the books, slaver & traitor that he is. Now I know thx to Glen
@TitanConBelfast: that scene with Viserys and Jorah Mormont kicked ass, great stuff #GameOfThrones!
@davverplatt: Guy who plays jorah mormont on #gameofthrones would have made a much better obi wan than Ewan McGregor #starwars
Iain Glen’s voice actually is a little Ewan McGregor-as-Kenobi-ish.
That was yet another really good scene. Glen continues to be the man, and Harry Lloyd is putting on a clinic: How to be a really bleeping good actor before the age of thirty. “I need a large army,” was delivered pure Lloyd. To me, Viserys will forevermore have that voice.
Meanwhile, over at the Eyrie, Tyrion also wakes up from a long nap…
@SCHirst: Brings a whole new meaning to rolling out of bed, doesn’t it!
@tmvogel: You so don’t want to get up on the wrong side of that bed #skycells
@SandykateS: Is it me or does the dwarf in #Gameofthrones sound just like Michael McIntyre?! .. yaaaa its probably me…haha!
I have never heard of Michael McIntyre. Anyone?
@crouchingotter: Hahaha. “No gold! Fuck off.” might be one of the best lines of dialogue ever written
@jesikalin: “No gold! Fuck off!” Mord you wordsmith.
@john_zeleznik: Who wants to form a Mord fan club with me.
Mord was great. Props to Ciaran Bermingham for making this small role larger than life. We appreciate every bizarre little twitch he gave the gaoler.
Tyrion introduces us (and Mord) to the “abstract concept” of “possession.” Which is ridiculous. But not as ridiculous as Tyrion telling Mord he is a smart man. How hard was that? It physically pained Tyrion to say those words. Dinklage, man. Dinklage.
Back south! Syrio! Arya! …Death!
@TodoBeto: “There is only one god, and his name is death. and there is only one thing we say to death: Not today” -Syrio Forel
@Sir_Davidio: God, Syrio is PERFECT.
@omnipotentseal: Syrio Forel is Yoda, Mr. Miyagi, & Inigo Montoya all rolled into one character
@casness: I’m so proud of Arya right now.
@TheMichaelMoran: I like these fencing lessons because they imply that one day she’ll be a kickass ruper-ronin
@SenatorGiggity: Why is Robert Downey Jr. teaching this girl how to sword fight.
You know, Miltos Yerolemou could totally play Robert Downey Jr.’s brother. I’m still holding out hope for a Jaqen transformation, however.
Back at the Vale, Tyrion is brought before Lysa and the lords and ladies of the Vale. Some of them have huge noses. They could all use a little sun.
@les111280: The only thing missing from these Vale scenes is he Blackfish.
@ReallyAlly: DUDE. The moon door looks so fucking epic.
@ipe: Spoiler Alert. No breastfeeding scene this week.
@EmilysPoste: Gods, Sweetrobin is a little shit.
@silkskinned: Robert Arryn and Joffrey need to hang out. And by “hang out” I mean “get eaten by a bear”.
@Goofyfan_Chuck: I wish that little runt Robin would fall into that hole.
@Ms_Rena: “I can still see her tits bouncing” LMAO, Tyrion my FAV Lannister
@rgentry3: “i made the bald man cry into the turtle stew, which I think my sister ate, I least I hope she did!”
@kwago: “I once walked into a brothel with a jackass and a honeycomb…” Tyrion for president!
@_Danicia_: “SILENCE!” “What happened next?” – We laughed out loud. VERY LOUDLY.
@gusandleo: Oh Tyrion. So wrong. So very, hilariously wrong.
@NiceQueenCersei: that confession was worth waiting for #brilliant
@miafarradaily: LMFAO at Tyrion’s confession. This guy must, MUST, get an Emmy.
@chewbacadefense: Good god I love Tyrone!
@deniceduggin: Loved the look on Bronn’s face during Tyrion’s “confession”
@Paco_ICEandFIRE: MILK MY EEL!!!
@liese2711: Ah so THAT’S why it’s called the money shot
Cha-chinggg!
We join King Robert as he tromps through the woods with Lord Renly, Ser Barristan, and trusty ol’ Lancel…
@Blackfish_Blues: That hunting party’s awfully small. Barristan has misgivings.
@Ms_Rena: Oh Robert, Renly aint interested in fucking any woman
@goodmanw: “We used to call it making the eight.”
@spittinchiclets: I also love how terrified Lancel has looked every time he’s been onscreen. Even the minor characters are too perfectly cast.
@Monrreal: Yes, Lancel. Give him more wine. That’s what Cersei wants isn’t it?
@cdeminski: King Robert drinking in the castle, drinking in the bedroom, and now… drinking in the forest. How unique.
@PiyaSRoy: Why is it that the blood and the red wine on #GameOfThrones look exactly the same?!
@ReallyAlly: Where’s the boar? It needs to hurry up.
A boar is never late. Neither is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.
I’m still loving Lancel. Eugene Simon (who was originally up for the part of Joffrey) is putting a nice comical twist on a character who, in the books, was just sort of there.
So while Robert was out making Renly be manly (Loras’s words sinking in, I think), Ned is stuck sitting on an uncomfortable throne.
@lindseyclarke: Oh no you di’n’t, Ned. Did you seriously just call out Tywin Lannister? Seriously?
@vslayer1012: Damn way to grow a spine Ned. Executing Gregor and threatening Tywin Lannister. Things are going to get ugly.
@cdeminski: Ned, “I can’t restore your homes” but … I can give you a bunch of fish. There they are on the floor, take them”
@Blackfish_Blues: Lots of attention to the Riverlands & Tullys. Also fish.
@silkskinned: Oh, dude, don’t dump your bag of fish on the floor. They’ll never get that smell out.
@_whatshername: Littlefinger has become Captain Obvious.
@Sir_Davidio: I changed my mind, Littlefinger is the best character.
@techno_row: Where did the fish go?
@wywrd: stupid, stupid, stupid Eddard Stark
@Pizama: Eddard Stark is channeling Dr. House’s look. And he’s limping too. What’s the Westeros equivalent of vicodin?
@Paco_ICEandFIRE: LORD BERIC!! HES A GINGER!
@tribalmeg: OMG Beric Dondarrion. I totally forgot about this bit in the books.
Yep, a brief appearance by David Michael Scott as the Lightning Lord. I was hoping for a purple lightning bolt cape, but hey. Either way, I’m not sure that dude is going to last seven seconds against the Mountain that Rides.
Back at the Vale of Arryn…
@bellie7: Lady of the Vale…you is one crazy biatch! And your son too!
@miafarradaily: Robin of the Vale needs a badge of honour. A BIG ONE.
@mambalovesdaisy: Does anyone else wanna knock that hideous spoilt little brat into the hole in the floor?!
@mambalovesdaisy: Along side that hideous Children of the Corn Lannister boy!! Down the hole with you
@mambalovesdaisy: Omg I think I want to throw Sansa down there as well!
She’s not even here! Damn you all. Haters…
She’s certainly not at the Eyrie! We haven’t even seen her yet! Sansa a nice, sweet girl, with some… reality issues, sure… but were she in your place she would never say a mean-hearted word. A lady always minds her courtesies, and you people… you people…
LEAVE! SANSA! ALONE!
@emilyabclark: Forget the Iron Throne, I want the Throne of the Eyrie!
@theroseinbloom: Lysa and her son are 100% disgusting.
@wispa9: That child is not so bright.
@NiceQueenCersei: When @LysaArryn said open the Moon door did no one else think she was going to moon him?
Wh—no!
Meanwhile, a fight goes down. Jerome sure is agile. Perhaps dodging groupies…
@TheMichaelMoran: ’tis but a scratch
@obsidianoffing: PWND.
@cdeminski: Oh, THAT has gotta hurt. Nice sword fight!
@NattyBo: Ohhhhhhh, SHIT Bronn!!!!!
@PKGM: This fight scene is just…O__O
@AaronPStephens: Bloody he’ll that was #JeromeFlynn from #SoldierSoldier that just killed that chap. #GameOfThrones. #NotSeenHimForAWhile #90s
@DeeWeissman: do you think IKEA will have cheap Moon Doors?
@CaraLally: Some poor sheep is going to be squished by that body
I never really thought of that. Was more worried for Summer when Bran was tossed.
@kamillerose: “You don’t fight with honor.” “No, he did.”
@silkskinned: Also a mark of skill: Tyrion’s shit-eating grin is rapidly becoming my favorite thing on TV.
@ohheyitsbutler: The perfect man: Sean Bronnery. Mix Bronn’s baddassery with the swagger of Sean Connery. “My Lord Lannishtar”
@TehNickU: Every court should work like this.
@Khalahd: You go, Bronn. Wish they’d used your name more often by now…..new watchers are probably confused.
@Blackfish_Blues: Farewell, Ser Not Brynden Tully. You won’t be missed. Now I get the theatrical purpose of that weird Moon Door.
@MikeBrendan: Oh Tyrion, you and I need to be drinking buddies. #ALannisterPaysHisDebts
@BronnOverBrains: Throwing Vardis out the moon door is the most satisfying feeling in the world.
I’ll take your word for it, Bronn!
Okay, NOW we may join sweet young Sans—er… Damn, girl. Poor Septa! Young lady, what would your mother say?! APoIaF is right, this is all Cat’s fault.
@Monrreal: Sansa just in time to kill momentum…Just like in the books. Hahaha
@tribalmeg: Oh no, must we be subjected to Sansa?
@NiceQueenCersei: Just saw @Lady_Sansa ‘s hair and had an instant Queen Amidala flashback from The Phantom Menace
@hunnybee1214: @aquasodio Ha Ha Ha! Sansa’s such a little biatch.
@sithwitch: Prince Joffrey = Westeros Ike Turner.
@Sir_Davidio: Joffrey: “I’ll never disrespect you again.” DYING LAUGHING
@CateDubMajor: And the award for best actor goes to Joffrey Baratheon!
@kamillerose: Man, I just puked a little. Joffrey, gtfo.
@ijustlovespn: can i just say: i want sansa and geoffrey to DIE!
@ReallyAlly: STOP LYING JOFFREY YOU DICKLESS SON OF A WHORE
Heavens!
@frodabaggins: Ew, god, Sansa don’t let him touch you.
@m_Your_Vanilla: JOFFREY IS… *barfs*
I kind of want to do a follow-up interview with Sophie Turner now. “I know you were barely past your pre-teen status at the time, but please tell me your first kiss was not on-camera with Joffrey Baratheon.”
On the other hand, I guess that’s something you could one day tell your kids. “My first snog was with the most evil boy ever.”
It could be sort of a bragging point.
Anywho, let’s move away from redheads for awhi—AUUGH!
@txvoodoo: The Ubiquitous Ros!
@Sulwen: I’ve always loved stories about hookers. That scene was lovely.
@Sir_Davidio: Why isn’t that whore wearing underwear?
@Blackfish_Blues: Oh yeah, I also hate Roz. Unless she turns out to be absolutely momentuous
@TheMichaelMoran: You see what life was like before the internet? It was all women flashing their vajazzles in a turnip cart for change.
@AltiusTendo: A flash of vagina as a form of goodbye? Okay…
A quaint custom first developed back during the reign of Aerborn the Thrice-Diseased, used in the Iron Islands by salt-wives waving goodbye to their husbands as they went a-viking.
@Paco_ICEandFIRE: U DESERVE BETTER THEON!! LIKE I DONT KNOW… A MAN, MAYBE. A PUERTORICAN MAN. WE LIKE ISLANDS
There’s gay, there’s really gay, and then there’s Paco gay.
Ned joins the girls and imparts his news. Neither is really happy.
@GoatimusPrime: I hate Sansa even more now, more so than the book.
@busy_lizzy: I’m going to be queeeeen and have his baaabies. #ohsansa
@Paco_ICEandFIRE: SEVEN HELLS!!!! LOL
@ReallyAlly: “Seven hells” LOL ARYA I LOVE YOU
@namuras_svk: Arya… Marry me. When you’re legal. Or now, I don’t care.
@antonblender: I want a show where Arya Stark and Sally Draper team up to solve mysteries. Is that so much to ask? #GameOfThrones #MadMen
Sally Draper wouldn’t last a second in Arya’s world. One emo little whine and she’d get socked in the mouth.
@Ramsasaurousrex: I knew that prince was inbred from day 1!
@MichelleVsMe: Sansa Stark: Biggest brat and stupidest girl in all of King’s Landing and the Seven Kingdoms.
@mherr1979: And Ned knows. Good job, Sansa!
@tomthefanboy: OK, so now that Sansa has given Ned the missing clue he needed, can we please NEVER SEE THE BITCH AGAIN? #SansaHater
@Thomas_Heger: OH HOLY MOTHER OF PLOT TWISTS
@techno_row: So Joffery. Who’s your father…?
@Brynnalia: So far, TWO things I find fault with otherwise great #GameofThrones, 1) lack of direwolves 2) dehumanizing Sansa (while humanzing Cersei).
I try to never argue with Brynnalia. Yet she is clearly #TeamArya, so I cannot agree with her either.
@Ajanelewis: ah the tears of happiness in Viserys eyes kills me
@valeriemeachum: Jason Momoa might have been nervous about learning the constructed language, but he gets his point across quite well.
Jason Momoa was excellent in this episode. Dude does a lot with just his body and his kohl-shaded eyes. He’s made huge strides as an actor since Ronon Dex. Next up: Conan the Barbarian!
Twitter went insane during this scene. I probably missed half the reactions just from the mad scrolling.
@CateDubMajor: You don’t want the crown! Forget it!
@Jason_Haas: Viserys is almost sympathetic as played by Lloyd. Never saw that coming. He’s hideous in the book.
@Chaoticmuse: Aww… he learned Common JUST to insult you.
@tribalmeg: Drogo’s got this. Watch out.
@PrinceMarvillis: Dude calls himself the Dragon..dude is a garden snake at best
@moviegoer878: #gameofthrones ends tonight with the most satisfying event in the entire first book.
@trioptimum: oh Drogo, you prankster. I believe you misunderstood that crown request on purpose.
@laughingbanshee: Best coronation ever!
@fifidm75: Oh my!
@oliverpowell: Well there go my good feeling about one day bathing in gold!
@NelsonsGlassEye: Wow. A hell of a way to get a fitting for a crown.
@Ghettogav77: No that’s what I call a golden shower!!
… ew.
@maljal: Ahhhhh that golden crown was intense. Am I the only one who finds the khal insanely hot?
@theReal_JayCr: Having hot gold poured on top of ur head has to hurt. Especially since it cools down quick & turns into solid #painfulldeath
@BadClaire: The clunk as he fell will give me nightmares
@Miami_Fire: @ElishaTM You been watching #GameOfThrones twin? So good. The guy I told you? He’s in it #TheKhalIsBrotherWorthy. Actor is Jason Momoa
@deleon808: Hot damn! That was some hardcore shit. I love this show.
@SCHirst: As it is, I’m gonna miss Harry Lloyd. He is an epic Viserys and made him more than just a cookie cutter villain.
@LadyNorthman: Kudos to Harry Lloyd. He is/was amazing.
@digitalgloom: Fire Can Not Kill The Dragon
@ReallyAlly: HARRY LLOYD IS SO FANTASTIC I CAN’T EVEN…
@freckles_134: WHAT. JUST. HAPPENED.
@jurassicsnark: HOLY FUCK
@olleriksson: FUCKING DRAKÄGGEN!!! AAAHAHHHHAAAA JAG DÖR
@mikeydog: I guess he wasn’t a dragon..
@1KristieJ: Well that was a different kind of way to die
@RadiantSoren: Crowning moment of the season so far?
Ouch.
@abovethelone: Oh Viserys Targaryen… the only redeeming thing about you is the way you wear your crown. #takethatmotherfucker
@jflowlu: I’m gonna need Kal Drogo to meet Jamie Lannister and put a crown on his head next
@rupturerapture: Game of Thrones awesome again. Crowning was better than I imagined
@jacobite11: Sitting in the dentist chair laughing at UK retweets when dentist told me I’d need a #goldencrown!
@mikedemo: Now we know who the first dragon is. But I should have figured that out since the first ep. The hot bath was the clue!
@MissBenzie: @nataliedaily Calysi IS the Dragon! I looove that show! Totally hooked!
@jwhedonaddict: Thank you ever so much @JaneEspenson for getting rid of that SOB in the most awesome way possible.
Mmm, I’m going to say that, while Jane was the primary writer of the episode, credit will still go to George R.R. Martin for getting rid of that SOB in the most awesome way possible.
And our Khaleesi says “Fire does not kill a dragon,” and we can’t quite decide if we’re in love with Emilia Clarke or perhaps maybe just a little bit creeped out. But damn, she’s getting better and better as well. Each episode she climbs another rung on the awesome ladder.
@_kimguin: My face after watching #GameofThrones is stuck in an expression of shock. My eyes are like a bushbaby in my face.
Like this?
She’s kinda cute! Wouldn’t take her to bed though.
@EmmLou83: #gameofthrones – grimmest programme, I feel sick
@c_meola: Another excellent #GameofThrones, I was disappointed that it was the second straight week without Jon Snow.
@79chevyimpala: THeres a severe lackage of nudity in this episode T_T and of John Snow T_T
@_mittendorfer: No gay armpit and chest shaving nor any gay blowjobs like in last weeks episode but one can’t have everything.
Don’t ever hold out for anything less! Try to be king. That way, you can decree chest shavings and all sorts of interesting foreplay—for everybody!
@siriuslyheather: #GameOfThrones is becoming a bore.
I’m sorry, but I just can’t take you seriously, Heather.
@TwinBnotTwinA: At the end of every episode of #GameOfThrones I just sit there in awe…
@MeganReinking: so…. #GameofThrones is becoming one of my all-time favorite television shows… #getintoit
@effseedee: I just… need it always to be Sunday in America.
@TheLadyJess: #GameofThrones may KILL ME
While Dave and D.B. probably hope for strong reactions, I’m not sure if that’s precisely what they were envisioning.
@Paco_ICEandFIRE: goddammit @HBO stop adding #GameOfThrones merchandise to your store!!! I want that “I made the eight” & “time to fly” tshirts!
Me too, Paco. Me too.
Lastly… as we think to next week, which actually happened this week…
@JuggaJugga: #GameOfThrones another fantastic episode. Brilliant series. @hbo I’m pissed that I’m stuck with @TimeWarnerCable. TWC, Support @hbogo!
@DavePaskiet: #TimeWarner sucks and doesn’t get #HBOGO, so if anyone knows where to download #GameofThrones Episode 7, let me know.
Don’t get me started. Time Warner Cable, thou hast failed me.
So for me, next week is next week! Maybe by then Littlefingersexpositiongate and Ghostbarkedgate will have lost some steam.
Or… gained some steam.
Always support the bottom!
