He could just be injured. It was pretty dark and hard to tell how badly he was actually hit. He might be OK.
Er, the same reason anyone posts in or reads a forum, discussion. Maybe someone had only just gotten around to watching the last episode and had an insightful comment to make, or someone who only posts on these forums every few days. Maybe someone had heard some interesting rumours from the set. Maybe season 2 boxed set details had been released. Maybe someone had produced a nice piece of fan art. Maybe Lena Headey had been arrested on a DUI. Hell, sometimes it's good to know in advance whether popular concensus considers the latest episode worth hurrying to your set to see. Even if you keep up to date watching the show (and I am, we're only one freaking day behind here), TV shows occasionally leak out before their US airdate - would you assume everyone in the thread had seen it?
In my case, I'd forgotten the new episode had aired in the US. It's not like I'm coming in months later.
I wouldn't have bothered saying anything if we didn't have spoiler tags on these forums, but this is exactly what they're there for.

I think they handled the Blackwater battle very well, except for the wildfire a little bit, it served as more of just a bomb, minor gripe. This season is turning out great.
A question for the non-readers: Did you understand whose armor Loras was wearing at the end? I think they completely glossed over this point, which was worth a nod in my opinion, as it had a significant effect in the morale of troops (both attackers and defenders).
Anyway, the episode was great. Some great character moments. And of course, that explosion was simply awesome!

This song came to mind while watching a certain part of the battle.
Did you notice this song in the credits?
Vertigo posted that it hadn't aired in the uk yet so i thought the rule applied. I was confused about how my other edited post was a spoiler too (there's only so many origins a shadow demon baby can be conceived!) so I think I'll just be more cautious about it in general in the "le cinema" forum. Thanks.
All I know is, if I haven't seen the most recent episode, I don't touch the thread.
And there's no way Tyrion dies, tis only a flesh wound! I think he just passed out because "he's bleeding" and he's not used to battle. Although, it was pretty deep, no way it was a mortal wound though. The ending was pretty sweet though, definitely thought they were fucked.

Just bought this shirt. For those unfamiliar with teefury.com their shirts are only available for 24 hours, and then they're gone forever. I was a big fan of this artist's other Game of Thrones/Beer mash-up shirt "Stark Direwolf Winter Lager".

It appears the season finale will be 10 minutes longer than the usual runtime. Nice to see they're taking extra time to wrap up the season properly.
I found a site that still sells this artist's other shirt. I like this one better.
Nope, not even close. I'm talking about the written synopsis.
I loved this season. I'm wondering where they will finish this season???
Surely it would have to be with one of the "Weddings".
Does anyone else really want to hear a sing-a-long of "The Bear & the Maiden fair"???
But they'll have to end on something big. This will be interesting.
^ That would be awesome
