    I'm starting to think that Edmure was in on it so that he could get the only good looking Frey daughter :lol:

    The pic at the end of the chapter shows 6 books. Aren't there only 5?

    The British publication's split Storm of Swords into two books because of its size. that is why it says 6.

  • From Season 1 and while it isn't so great to be the two featured Lannisters these days it is better than being a Stark right about now.

    Not sure if they're in on it, but it all seems fishy that he got the looker and Brynden got up to piss just before shit got crazy.

    The no likeable characters left is not being fair to the show. More good guys have been killed than the ones people hate fair enough, but Jon Snow is still going strong as is Arya, Davos should be in that group, Stannis is awesome if he gets away from Melisandra, Dany and Grey Worm. Queen of Thorns and Tyrion are cool.

    They can't really kill all the douches cause there arent that many. Cersei, Joffrey, Tywin, Littlefinger, and the Mountain that Rides. Plus Bolton and Walder Frey. Now we just need to see some of them die. We have the more neutral characters too that lean towards good, mostly.

    Everyone wanted to see Theon get his, and now that he is people seem upset by it.

    I have a feeling people will like the Martells next season, so there will be the Red Viper to root for.

    Also, the single most tragic part of that episode was the wolf getting shot by a bunch of arrows while he was locked in that cage. I am sick of this show killing the damn wolves. Pregnant women, innocent bystanders, entire families, okay no problem. But lay off the muthafuckin' cuddly animals!

    Dire-wolves arent cuddly though, and if the Freys will shoot humans locked up and unarmed why would they give a Dire-wolf a fighting chance?

    are too! :cry:

    There is a twitter account called @theredweddingtears

    It has been solid gold today retweeting all the crazy reactions on twitter :D

    My personal favorite - "The writers of Game of Thrones can eat a bag of dicks for ruining my life". :D

    And all of these dopes that keep referring to Robb as Ron or Rod. :fp:

    Anyway, I was being a bit dramatic saying they killed off all of the good characters, but damn Martin just kills off the good ones with reckless abandon. No one is off limits. So now since everyone loves Arya and hopes that she is going to become a big badass and go on a Lannister killing spree, she'll probably get offed too. I like the idea of Bran controlling, or better yet, riding a dragon into town to obliterate the enemies of the Starks. It will be a twisted take on the Neverending Story. :)

    Do you think the wolf was going crazy because it knew Rob was in trouble or because it could smell Arya. I thought it was because of Arya.

    might be in the minority, but I love to hate the bad guys. Thats why I enjoy the show so much. Just like Ralphie on the Sopranos, Marlo on the Wire, Jack McCall/Racist Steve on Deadwood, Gyp Rosetti on Boardwalk Empire, Newman on Seinfeld, etc. They make the story that much more interesting.

    Goddam who's left to kill that's likeable? It seems this season has been about turning bastards into nice guys and killing off all of the good ones. I agree with the Arya comments, I look forward to her going medieval on some Lannisters and these fuckers that turned on Robb and his momma. Shit man, that was probably the most shocking few minutes of television I have seen. How tragic.



    riverrun is now aligned with the crossing through edmures marriage to roslin... so at least someone at the wedding knew how the game is played... shame robb didn.


    as for arya going medieval on someone... shes a child. but she has friends. ;)8-)

    I think it was because it knew Rob was in trouble. I doubt it smelled Arya....unless she had just started her "bleeding". :lol:

    It's hard to keep track of all the names of the minor characters on the show. Sometimes they are only stated once or it seems like not at all. I usually have to go to several game of thrones wiki sites to keep everyone straight. :lol:

    Thanks. I don't recall hearing her name. How do you know she knew? Maybe I shouldn't be asking that.

    Hope this isn't a spoiler, but wasn't she crying/sad in the book throughout the wedding? Haven't read it, but I think I read something like that in a forum. :) Don't think it's really that major of a plot point so hopefully no one gets upset that I posted it, especially since we're past that moment in the show.

    I don't think it is a spoiler now that it has happened. I would think people assumed all of house Frey was in on it. My guess is more of what transpired behind the wedding will be explained in the season finale to answer non book readers questions.

    no its not a ridiculous reaction... im just tired of 'joking' comments about 'women being on the rag'. that's all. its like drunken idiots saying "whats the matter you a lesbian?' or being called a dyke when you decline their oh so polite offer of hooking up. I do however understand the context in which it was said.. doesn't mean I have to llke it tho. boorish men are a bore.
