Peter Dinklage Wins Emmy For ‘Game of Thrones’ Role. Tyrion Justice.

Peter Dinklage is so excellent in his portrayal of Tyrion on Game of Thrones that I usually take him for granted. Oh another excellent performance. Yawn! But he fucking owns  as the Imp. Owns!  And while I usually don’t give a fuck about awards shows, for some reason I take a good gleam to the news that Dinklage has cleaned up with an Emmy.

Bethesda Almost Made ‘Game of Thrones’ Game, Stopped Because Of Skyrim. Swear Words.

Game of Thrones is a perfect source material for some fucking fantasy RPGing. Right? It practically screams adapt me, be it as a classic RPG or some sort of Bethesda beast of modernity. And it almost happened, but then came fucking Skyrim.

Game of Thrones FINALE!: Fire and Blood

If the final minutes of “Fire and Blood” didn’t make your jaw hit the floor, best go have your pulse checked. The dragon(s) have awoken and season 1 of Thrones ended on such a homerun for HBO, the audience, and that fat guy with two middle initials: George R.R.Martin. Producers David Benioff and D.B.

‘Games of Thrones’ Theme Gets 8-Bit Style Remix.

The theme to Game of Thrones is one colossally awesome affair. Some enterprising lads or ladettes, or both, have taken said theme and given it an 8-bit wash. Now my favorite geeky fantasy TV show can sound like a throwback to the RPGs I played to the point of obesity and perma-virginity.

What a fucking episode to leave for, Coop! Goodness gracious. The end of all things! Or I suppose the culmination of the very depressing beginning to things. In case you missed the wonderfully overemphasized thesis statement during a scene at The Wall this penultimate episode of the season is dealing with Duty and Love.
