A majority said they need total silence while watching "Game of Thrones." Some said the issue had lost them friends.
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/21/arts/television/game-of-thrones-talking.html?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur
I'm like that with any TV show. Everytime my girlfriend starts to talk I pause the show, she gets pretty tilted by it.
I thought the first half of the last nights episode was very boring. Second half a bit better but given there are only 7 episodes in this series I was hoping for more.
Same as this. Thank goodness for remotes and pause.
I do find it interesting the depth this programme is analysed, warging etc.
Having watched every minute, read the books long ago, if I was Sat with any mates and said anything other than 'see GOT this week? Good wasn't it etc', I would be given some very strange looks.
As a social experiment in a group of middle aged men, I am going to use some of this analysis and see what I can get out of them.
Please, carry on.

the titles theory is an interesting one
the opening credits. Here's a shot of the Wall from Season 6, Episode 1:

right hand side, water has become ice
the Hound saw something interesting in the fire, the army of the dead just walking around the wall and the titles appear to confirm that its possible

Pretty laughable stuff at times last night:
a) Tyrions master plan to win the 7 kingers. Er..you go there and don't be foreigners and then you foreigners pop up there (topples token on war board) - cue stunned silence at the brilliance of the plan
b) Cue smug smile ' a solution is being worked on' (to deal with the dragon threat). A few mins later, unveils crossbow and shoots into a static skull. Literally lolled, not 'arf.
Gonna keep watching for tits and japes but becoming pretty terrible

What is the moral compass of “Game of Thrones”?

Some interesting developments in Episode 3, most notably the 'phoney war' that was the assault on Casterly Rock. The series trailers did a good job of fooling me on this one, and it has developed a nice plot twist with the Lannister position suddenly looking much less hopeless than before.
The Jon and Daenerys exchanges were somewhat frustrating viewing, but less creepy than Bran's "I got to watch your wedding night" chat with Sansa.
Loving the ego-centric performances from Euron, particularly when he's got Jaime in his sights.
We finally got our first, albeit brief, sights of Casterly Rock and Highgarden, which I think are the final two major Westeros locations to appear on screen.
For me, the best scene of the episode was a toss-up between the Cersei/Ellaria and Jaime/Olenna scenes, which is something of a surprise given that this was the 'Jon meets Daenerys' episode. Much more still to come from that strand. For now they're both playing hard to get.

Euron was brilliant again.
Bran was shit. "I'm the three eyed raven".... "What does that mean".... "It's difficult to explain"...... Well at least f**king try even if it's off screen!!
Ser Davos his usual amazing self.... "This is Jon Snow" erm that's about it....

Such a shame that we found out a few seasons back that she was responsible for Joffrey's murder.
Would've been a fantastic reveal 4 seasons after the event. Really took the shine off it that we already knew even though the characters didn't.

Great episode!
Fantastic narrative and performances and a lot less big CGI battles.
I missed how Bran got to Winterfell from the Wall? As in episode 1 or 2 he and Meera turned up at the Wall and then we saw no more of it.
Euron's face when he asks Jaimie if Cersei likes a finger up the bum :-) priceless. What a character.

Looked like they arrived with a few other people so maybe the nightswatch had a couple of men drag them to winterfell since hes is Jons brother. Either that or Meera dragged him down, the look on her face was deffo one of "He's your problem now!"
Meera being in Winterfell is interesting in that her father Howland Reed might show up to pick her up and Howland also knows the truth about Jons true parentage and Bran knows that he knows.

How do you even remember this stuff? I struggle remembering what I had for dinner last night.
