So my household is paying tribute to the end of The Game of Thrones, a Song of Ice and Fire, and I mean that literally. Before the last season of GoT airs, my home has no ice or fire. My ice maker isn’t working and now the pilot light in my water heater is out.
I have no ice and fire, and soon enough, I will not have A Song of Ice and Fire.
Gotta love the last episode of Season 6 of the Game of Thrones. The music truly set this episode apart, especially the opening sequence featuring the Light of the Seven. It’s so good, so full of impact. Listen on repeat, just don’t follow Tommen.
Yup, that is a piano playing in this opening score.
Just more random thoughts about the Game of Thrones. Now-Maester Samwell Tarly figures out how to produce Dragonglass in quantities. Heck, maybe Sam’s hometown has Obsidian deposits from which weapons can be forged.
And guess who comes to the rescue when Jon Show and company are cornered by the White Walkers? Yup, Sam the Slayer. Well, he just provides Dragonglass tipped arrows to archers who lay down an escape route for Jon.
Just a random thought about Game of Thrones. Ramsay Bolton (eventually) gets taken out by the remaining direwolves. Seems like Ramsay uses his dogs and hounds to do some of his dirty work. So why not turn the tides and show the real alpha dogs, the direwolves? That would be an appropriate reunion of Ghost (Jon Snow), Summer (Bran), Nymeria (Arya), and hopefully Shaggydog (Rickon).
Game of Thrones Season 4 is coming up in April. Although it’s technically the fourth season of the series, the storyline continues from the latter half of Book 3, A Storm of Swords. If you want to jump forward and see what lies ahead in Westeros, there’s Book 4, A Feast for Crows
Gotta love Jason Momoa aka Khal Drogo on The Games of Thrones flashing the shaka alongside the Kingslayer and Khaleesi.
Too bad the Dothraki didn’t adopt the shaka as a hand gesture for their tribes.
I know it’s old news but the Game of Thrones Season 3 trailer was released a few days ago. If you haven’t yet watched, here it is.
Go ahead HBO, take my money!
It’s highly unlikely, but I wonder if Nike would consider designing shoes inspired by HBO’s Game of Thrones. There could be some interesting colorways tied to the regions and peoples of Westeros.
The family sigils have already been redesigned by Nike’s Darrin Crescenzi, and I could easily see these translated to Nike’s kicks. Hmm, a shaggy, equine Dothraki Dunk or a dragon-scaled Targaryen Air Force One…
Forget winter, forget war. The BMW X1 is coming…
Here’s an interesting article about BMW using social media to promote the new X1.
Season 2 of the Game of Thrones just proves how Tyrion Lannister as the Hand of the King is GOAT. Here are some of his most memorable lines from this season. Be forewarned (though as a Game of Thrones fan you already know) that there’s some profanity to be heard.
Thanks to HBO, you can catch up with episode 17 of the Game of Thrones in less than 2 minutes. Watch the recap video.
If you’d rather read than watch, Entertainment Weekly has a great episode recap as well.
