Though I know what happened . . . good lord. The Red Wedding was so graphic and dark! I know for a fact some people thought it was too much. But hey, its realistic. Especially

Powerful scene!

Episode nine killed off more members of House Stark. And the fans raged! laugh.gif

Could you guys please use spoiler tags for those of us who aren't up to date won't have the series ruined for us? I love Game of Thrones and live in a blackout on the show until I can catch up. mellow.gif

The show is very enjoyable without reading the books. If you haven't read the books the show is wildly unpredictable though. I haven't read the books and I love the series.

Also, a news report about all of the upset fans ruined it for me anyways. sad.gif

I think we will see it. The start of the next episode's preview suggest as much. I don't know about you but I am excited to see



Also. I have the feeling everything happened both because of the author AND the fans. This quote says all:

The show does that to characters. Great show, though.

Been watching some bad movies lately, most not by choice. I tried the 2004 Frankenstein with Parker Posey, and the Kenneth Branagh/DeNiro Frankenstein. Ugh. Mozart's Sister did not turn out to be that good either. It starts good, but the ending is incredibly depressing. The Paperboy was likely blah. I gave up on that one about 20 minutes in.

Today I am watching a bad movie because I want to though. Playing Fallout 3 lately has gotten me in the post apocalyptic mood. So I fired up Damnation Alley. Not a good movie by any stretch. But unlike all the others it is at least fun! smile.gif

Yesterday I watched a movie called Dragon Lore: Curse of the Shadows. It's a very low-budget, independent movie that borrows a lot from Tolkien and World of Warcraft. I was not expecting much. But I was very pleasantly surprised. I thought it was not half-bad. It's not going to win any Academy Awards, but I was actually kind of engaged by the story and the characters, to my surprise.

If anyone is looking for a 'good-but-cheesy' fantasy movie you might give it a try, when it comes out. Here's the IMDB for it if anyone's interested: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2250234/

Sadly, Netflix does not have it. sad.gif I love the picture though.

I just noticed that Jackie Earle Haley is in Damnation Alley. That's right: Rorsarch. I did not realize that he had been a child actor. It looks like he is about 10 or 12.

It's not scheduled to be released until August. I should have mentioned that in my post, I'm sorry. I posted this as a kind of heads-up so folks who are interested could be on the lookout for it when it comes out. smile.gif

The woman who plays the main character (the one in the picture) has had a bit of training in swords and bows. She pulls off a few badass moves with her elven sword that I think are way above-average for this kind of low-budget movie.

Just watched a really cool movie..."The Book of Eli". The setting could easily have been The Wasteland from Fallout 3, with Denzel Washington as The Lone Wanderer. So many of the scenes looked like they were right out of the game. If you haven't seen it, I recommend it highly.

I liked that movie.

A little too religious for my tastes but overall it was an excellent movie.

The major twist, which I won't spoil, was a bit over the top for me as well.

I felt the same way. It was alright to see once, but I'd never want to see it again.

I felt the same way too. I'm glad I watched Eli once, I guess. But I can't picture myself ever watching it a second time.

I finished watching Babylon 5. At least the regular series. I can never keep a dry eye during that last episode. I still have the standalone television movies they made after season 5 left. Today I watched In The Beginning, which was probably the best one. It is a prequel, set a decade before the series, depicting the the Earth-Minbari War, which nearly saw the extermination of the human race.
