…Someone Please Explain To Me Why I’m Still Watching “Game of Thrones…”

Hello, people.

 

I know that a lot of us have read the books and that even more of us anxiously look forward to ever Sunday night in the Springtime but, after last Sunday’s episode, I find myself wondering why.

 

Why are we putting ourselves through this?

 

Fleeting moments of dragon fire and platinum blonde badassery? Imp wit? Jon Snow saying his name that way that he does.

Jon SNOO.

Game of Thrones Recap: First of His Name

Last week’s episode we found out who killed Joffery and watched Margaery attempt to seduce Tommen based on what her grandmother said. Also Jaime sent Brienne on a quest find Sansa with Podrick. Bran is kidnapped at Craster’s Keep and Jon is on his way there to kill the traitors of the Knight’s Watch.

Game of Thrones Recap: The Lion and The Rose

The second episode of Game of Thrones is upon us, last episode was as great reintroduction to many of the characters. The main thing to know for this episode is that Joffery and Margaery are preparing to get married.

Game of Thrones Recap: Two Swords

Well Game of Thrones is back, I don’t know about you but I couldn’t be more excited. This season is the second half of Book 3 – A Storm of Swords, in my opinion the best of the books. I promise not to give away any spoilers. A lot happened last season the biggest things to happen were; Jaime’s hand got cut off, Arya is a crazy killer, and Robb and Cateyln were betrayed by the Frey’s and killed at a wedding.

Game of Thrones Teaser Trailers

HBO has released three teaser trailers about the upcoming 4th season of Game of Thrones.

This first one teases about the remaining Stark family from the eyes of a direwolf.  As someone who has read the books, I know what is going to happen.  I have to say it is a good tease and you should all just watch an see what happens.

The next one teases to Khalessi and her dragons, the dragons are getting bigger.  She is has always feared what would happen if when her dragons got bigger.

This last one teases to Tyrion in a dungeon, all I will say is you have to watch season 4 to find out why he is there.

I am excited for Season 4, because Book 3 was my favorite book, Season 4 is the last half of Book 3.  I am looking forward to what they do with all the last half of the book.

Game of Throne Season 4 Posters

Game of Throne released new character posters for the upcoming season.

Tywin Lannister – you hate him but at the same time you respect him.

Tyrion Lannister – the only Lannister anyone likes and the one person you want to get drunk with

Cercei Lannister – probably the most hated of the Lannisters – she is Queen Bitch

Jaime Lannister – the only Lannister on the road to redemption?

Joffery – the most hated character on the show – definitely the most hated Lannister (well he’s not a Baratheon), here is to hoping he dies this season.

Margary Tyrell – the girl who really wants to be Queen, I don’t know if Joffery is really worth it.

Sansa Stark – here is to hoping that she will finally figure out how to play the game

Bran Stark – let us hope that he is able to find what he is looking for north of the wall

Arya Stark – the most badass of all the Starks, lets see where her vendetta against all those who wronged her family leads her.

Jon Snow – the bastard of the Stark family, lets see how things go for him now that he is back with the Nights Watch.  Lets hope those arrows his pissed off girlfriend shot him with don’t do too much damage.

Ygritte – she a woman scorned now

Tormund – lets see how he reacts to being duped by Jon Snow.

Melisandre – the red woman, the red witch; what other devious plans do she have to put Stannis on the throne.

The Hound – what does he have in store for him and Arya?

Brianne of Tarth- she has given Jaime back to the Lannisters, now she has to take Sansa and Arya, but Arya is not in Kings Landing.

Oberyn Martell – what is this guys story, I can’t help but think that he has something up his sleeve.

Littlefinger – he is always up to something and what is with his fascination with Sansa.  Does she really remind him of her mother that much?

Khalessi Daenerys – will she ever get to Westeros?  Will she ever fly on the backs of her dragons?  With any luck we will be seeing more dragons this season and her saying Dracarys.

Sir Jorah Mormont – will he ever find out his father was killed?  Will he ever get out of the friendzone?

Daario Naharis – what is this guys story? He kills his own men and then swears allegiance to Khalessi, how do we know he don’t turn on her?

I cannot wait to see Season 4 and for all of you to find out what will happen to these characters.  The joy of having ready the books I know what is going to happen.
