What’s that off in the snowy distance? Well, it looks like a White Walker. He sure is taking his time sauntering along on his zombie horse. I’m talking Samwell Tarley slow. The episode is called “Oathkeeper,” but the Valerian steel sword given that name is far from the most interesting element of the episode. We saw a…

Or perhaps you are braving the wonderful world of soul-tearing creativity and writing your own novel series. Regardless, if you want to pen something that is…
Hey guys, remember last week when Joffrey died? How about that? I half expected him to reanimate this week as an undead version of his already unbearable self. But that didn’t happen… yet. After such an explosive ending last week, I couldn’t possibly imagine how the show would keep up the momentum. Well I heard…
Jerks on the Internet, who spoiled the Game Of Thrones episodes for their friends, consider yourselves on notice. Game of Thrones is arguably the biggest television series that our eyes have ever wanted to kiss. It’s decadent, it’s expansive, it’s not as good as the books, but nothing ever is. The casting has been superb,…
Have you ever wanted something to happen so badly but then you were ultimately left unfulfilled when it finally did? That’s me with the end result of this week’s episode of “Game of Thrones,” titled “The Lion and the Rose.” Spoilers are on the way if you haven’t watched yet. It’s a classic whodunit, but…
I can’t believe that season four of “Game of Thrones” is finally here. We’ve endured the winds of winter and are rewarded with the slow but steady progress of our friends from Westeros and beyond. But if there is one thing I realized as the curtain was pulled back on “Game of Thrones” 4.0 it’s…
The great debate about what to do about Australia and our obvious obsession with Game of Thrones has gone on longer than a Daenerys chapter in A Song of Ice and Fire. We apparently pirated the HBO series more than any other country in the world. But why? WHY do we love breaking the law…
Why does it seem as though books based in fantasy or historical settings always make food sound so delicious? Perhaps it’s because in most scenarios the characters have spent their days on a long voyage and they reach that point of hunger when even the idea of eating animal droppings seems reasonable. Just when the…
It’s a good day when my plans consist of snuggling up in my coziest Tolkien themed blanket, trusted steed at my side sleeping like a rock, and hours of Netflix ahead of me. Time alone is nice, sure. Healthy, too. But, everyone is at their best when around their favorite people. Thankfully, my favorite people…
Thanks to a very generous extended HBO promotional, we now have our very first look at Season 4 of ‘Game of Thrones’. Brace yourselves, fangirls and boy are coming!

Game of Thrones isn’t just about sex and nudity. There are actual reasons for the sex scenes, and they help move the plot along. The sex is usually the backdrop for something much more serious. A secret is revealed or some plot twist occurs. Think back on when Cersei and Jamie were caught going at…
Last time, I talked about how your accent will guarantee if you’re a good guy or a bad guy in Star Wars. This week it’s a little closer to my heart: Game of Thrones. I love GOT. I really love it. I’ve spent entire days talking about it and nothing but it. My best friends…
Game of Thrones won our hearts back in 2011 when it premiered on HBO. For me, who didn’t subscribe to premium channels at the time, the only thing to do to catch up with the rest of society was to read the books. I was able to talk with people about the show, name drop…
These days I don’t seem to be able swing a mouse without coming across the announcement of another new MMO game. I’m certainly not complaining about this uptick in popularity and variety. It’s refreshing to be able to go beyond the realms of EverQuest and WoW, and even the RPG genre, when it comes to MMO…
With the season finale of HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones’ having premiered a few months ago, almost four months if we want to get technical, our anticipation for the next season is in full effect. However, since we have to wait until next April, all we can do is wait anxiously and re-read the books until…
