  1. Caught up.

    Spoiler

     

    S03E04 was nearing heel turn territory for Lapis. I'm down with the frenamy dynamic though.

    S03E05 was great. Loved the five new Rubys. Loved the baseball. Love Ruby and Sapphire being the cutest couple. I LOVED "Earl".

    S03E06 new power for Steven! I don't know if the show will last long enough to see him become a bad ass, but I'd love it. Even as a future sight to warn Steven of what could happen if he fights instead of trying to find peace.

    By that logic Cersei and Jamie started it by shagging one another and having a kid. And Tywin caused it by marrying Cersei off to Robert Baratheon. And Robert Baratheon caused it by usurping the throne. Etc etc :P

    See, that is where you are wrong - I've put some thought into this.

    Imagine Jamie and Cersei on a road. They hit a fork. Down one, no incest, that doesn't lead to this war. Down the second, incest, but that doesn't necessarily lead to the war either, because if they are not seen by Bran there wouldn't have been a war.

    Bran had his own fork, climb or no climb, he chose climb and saw the Lannisters as a result.

    Now Jamie has two options - push Bran to cover things up, or let the kid out him and his sister. Either of those roads would lead to a war.

    It is Bran deciding to climb that set the whole thing in motion. Once he saw Jamie and Cersei there was no way to avoid war.

  3. I'm kinda suprised this season started with the big fight. I kinda wish I never watched the "leaked" version a few weeks back, but it was bad ass. 

    I think Jasper will be back and I wouldn't be suprised if she gets converted like Peridot. 

  4. I'm not sure about the show itself, but for me the pivotal thing was the manner in which Ned and Howland came out standing. The story was always quite vague, that Ned's team of 7 fought Dayne's team of 3 and only Howland and Ned survived.

    The implication, given Ned's honourable nature, was that he bested Dayne, who is also an honourable man, in battle. What we now have seen is Dayne cut through everyone and would have killed Ned if not for Howland stabbing him in the back. Then Ned made the killing blow.

    If nothing else it is a very cheap win and something not becoming of an honourable man, nor was it a dignified death. Especially when bith men were fighting for loved ones. It is a much dirtier picture than the clean one I had in mind ... which is very Game of Thrones.

    Mini spoiler about the 4th chapter;

    Playing Crash Bandicoot is the best

    The cinematic's in this game are outstanding.

    Played a little bit last night and stopped just after that part. I'm sure it won't be topped.

    In all seriousness I am enjoying what I've played so far. Skidding down steep banks and grappling hooking things is hellafun.

    Ramirez never got the ball though. They both went for it, Stephens got the ball and caught Ramirez on the follow through.

    Again, I see why it was a red, I just don't think it was as set in stone as some might suggest. It also felt that the card was given as much for the injury as anything, which I don't think is right.

    I might have to watch it back because it looked like he did to me. Even still you can't dismiss the damage done by reckless play.

  7. Yeah it was, any player showing their studs is on thin ice. Ramirez got the ball in open play while Stephens caught was too late and caused damage to another player to an extent that they had to be subbed. I don't think there was intent, but Brighton would been significantly advantaged if they only got a yellow.
