Game of Thrones finale. All in all it was pretty good. I would have said that it was very good if not for two things.

The first. Danyryeissshuusss. I hate her. I hate her, hate her, hate her. I hated her in the books, and hate her even more in the show. The saddest thing about this whole series to me is I am quite sure that she is the only person safe from death. I hate her stupid eyebrows. I hate her stupid dragons. I hate her stupid story.

The second. There is absolutely no context given for why Winterfell was burned down. I mean, I know why it was burned down, but how did they not have old teacher man at least say that he thought it was weird that Rob Stark's own men burned the fucking place down after the Iron Islanders surrendered? How? Were those of you who didn't read the books not confused by this?
I assumed that the Iron Islanders slinked away through the secret tunnels that the Measter was suggesting after setting it alight, but even that seemed a little oddball, and why exactly did Rob's men just leave?

I liked the early Dany story, where she was tooling around with Drogo and just seemed to be aimlessly gathering supplies or something. Given the ending to her little episode in Carth, it just seemed like nothing was accomplished apart from Jorah mugging at her a bunch. The ending shot was fucking perfect though.

:
I'm also being maybe a little too harsh. I'm fairly sure I would rather watch Scott Pilgrim again than, say, Redline.
God, Redline. I was so disappointed with it. I shelled out fourty dollars for the Blu-Ray because hey, why not? And it was just the most substanceless hunk of garbage.
