Also, about Ygritte (e8 spoilers) [sp] was anybody else annoyed Ygritte was slaughtering men and women without complaint, but of course don't worry audience she's still totally a nice person because she let a woman ~with a baby~~ live? She should already be irredeemable for the former. [/sp]
I've never had a show ever do that to me, [sp]just put me into a state of pure horror at someone dying.[/sp]
SHOW S04E08 [sp]A lot of people are talking about the head crushing and eye poking but for me the most impact had the first punch. Seeing how the Mountain with one blow punched out all of Oberyn's front teeth made you realize there's no way he can get out of this situation. In that moment you knew all hope is lost.[/sp]

The punch is brutal but it's, most of all, a sign of things to come. Sticking his thumbs in his eyes and crushing his skull takes all of 15 seconds. You barely have time to properly to respond one before the other immediately comes around.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Blueplastic;44990567][sp]WHO WOULD PASS THE BLOODY GATE?[/sp] [sp]THE BLOODY HOUND[/sp] Hound always delivers[/QUOTE] Holy shit I clicked that second spoiler without knowing what it said, as he said it in the video and it was surreal
On another note, how have I still not seen anyone make this joke? Linked because s04e08 spoilers. [url]http://a.pomf.se/wffcbg.mp4[/url]
[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;44991180][sp]I wonder what he was thinking as soon as he realise that the mountain exploded his mouth[/sp][/QUOTE] SHOW [sp]Probably something along the lines of https://twitter.com/PedroPascal1/status/473288824781815808[/sp]
[QUOTE=Rebi;44991708]SHOW [sp]Probably something along the lines of https://twitter.com/PedroPascal1/status/473288824781815808[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp] Yeah ouch isn't what I'd be thinking, more like "oh god the pain is unbearable, please god someone help me"[/sp]

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;44983794][B]Show[/B] | That scene with grey worm [sp]spying on women had me in fucking tears[/sp] [sp]His head sinking into water would make an excellent gif[/sp][/QUOTE] [B]The .GIF Genie delivers...[/B] [IMG]http://i.minus.com/ibj6l4rlM3AHJJ.gif[/IMG]
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;44990819]Show : [sp]That's because the scene is acted as brutally and realistically as possible. You obviously don't see the actually head burst because that'd be too hard to do properly, but the fact you can see oberyn yell his lungs out trying to shake his head with the mountain holding him in place rather than have it all be off camera with no sound makes it really hard. That, and oberyn's screams are actually louder than anything else in the scene.[/sp] If you compare it to another similar death in another movie : [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-gkvrkvH_Q]Star Trek Into Darkness spoilers[/url] (and obviously GoT spoilers since it shows a similar death) you can see what I mean.[/QUOTE] latest ep [sp]i feel like the screaming hit me the most, right up until it's was abruptly ended by the big crunch (i'll never be able to eat cereal again) you'll have to search far to find a more convincing scream that Pedro lets out. there are many more screams in this show that also manages to sound creepily convincing[/sp]
show [sp]um also ellaria's screaming[/sp]
show [sp]alternate ending: http://giant.gfycat.com/PowerlessHoarseAmericancrow.gif[/sp]
What bothered me the most SHOW[sp] aside from the fact that his head exploded was how we see an normally very confident and fearless character being completely humiliated and destroyed.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Chief Martini;44989749]Could you guys tag spoilers even when replying to other spoilers? Eventually the quote chain becomes very ambiguous in what kind of spoilers it contains.[/QUOTE] I don't understand why someone would be frequenting a thread about an on-going show without being up to date with the latest episode. What reason could there possibly be? You know a new episode has aired, you know people are going to discuss it. It kind of defeats the whole point of being this uptight about spoilers in the first place. Anyone who gets spoiled has only himself to blame.

Look at this monster [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKZEk4NG1-o[/media]
dude is like the second strongest man in the world because of that.
SHOW [sp] so like in real life could someone that strong actually completely fuck up someone's face like that[/sp]
[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;44993882]SHOW [sp] so like in real life could someone that strong actually completely fuck up someone's face like that[/sp][/QUOTE] show [sp]I don't think you can actually crush someone's face in with your thumbs inside their eyesockets. However if you can get your full palms on each of the person's temples you'll fuck them up really badly with enough applied force.[/sp]
probably
The [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8A7woRoVwyM"]vice video[/URL] on strongmen in iceland is really interesting. [editline]4th June 2014[/editline] It has the mountain in it
I keep fucking clicking book spoilers without thinking. Here's hoping there's enough filler to make me forget what I read. :(
[QUOTE=Swebonny;44992963]What bothered me the most SHOW[sp] aside from the fact that his head exploded was how we see an normally very confident and fearless character being completely humiliated and destroyed.[/sp][/QUOTE] Show/Same Book Spoilers Absolutely agree. I honestly would have preferred[sp]Oberyn to have just had his skull bashed in from a punch from the Mountain as it's described in the books in the ASOIAF Wiki. Instead, we get a fairly prolonged version of his death with him screaming in agony before his face explodes to mush. I wish he could've died with some dignity, not going out like he did in the show.[/sp]

Then he started playing with the spear and I had a very strong hunch that he was going to die. When he stabbed Mountain in the stomach I was a bit surprised, but when he was all like "nonono it is too early for you to die" it was clear as day that he was going to die afterall.[/sp]
