It's so funny you guys think that guy is a shape-shifting mastermind. The next season is going to be interesting

Chris Bruneau

Arianna, the guy you said was familiar is Ed Skrein--he played Ajax in Deadpool (2016)

Isaac Godoy

last one before the most anticipated episode :D

Ryley

Looks like rain soon...

Chris Bruneau

Stannis' daughter has a fictional disease called "greyscale"--its the Westeros equivalent of leprosy

joel mcjoelerson

"Daario is a Faceless Man" is a book-tier theory up there with "Tyrion is a time-traveling Secret Targaryen baby", except pretty sure the book tinfoil folk already have another character that's secretly Daario, haha. One of the (many) cliffhangers from where the books currently leave off is where faceless-man Jaqen fairly certainly reappears in Westeros later on. Highly anticiPATEd. Xd

joel mcjoelerson

but oh man based on these, y'all will love season 4. also Maple what is the best paper mario chapter and why is it the Glitz Pit arc in TTYD

Diegesis

they havent seen deadpool lol

Chris Bruneau

wonder what she saw him in??, he isnt really that well-known

Athasin

I hope they post episodes next week even though it's Thanksgiving.

Sean Irvin

Ajax? Sounds suspiciously made-up. You sure his name isn't...Francis?

Chris Bruneau

LOL-- "Time to make the chimi-fuckin'-changas."

Joe Blankenship

They think Daario Naharis is gonna turn around and have a different face, like Jaqen H'gar?

Diegesis

we're watching extra on sunday to make sure :)

Johnny Maple

Lol Daario being Jaaqen is like a 10+ year old book theory.

Jonathan Blaze

I Ld'MAO when they said Daario is a faceless man because he said All Men Must Die.

Christophe

Oh man, I didn't remember that they removed Davos' line from the books to Stannis' rhetorical question: - "What is the life of one bastard boy against a kingdom?" - "Everything." The chapter also ends on that exchange, signifying that that line and the meaning behind it was important to the author. D&D at it again, I suppose. "Themes are for eighth grade book reports" and all that. Who cares about your themes and deeper meanings and all that boring shit, on with the plot! So disappointing. Also, in the books, there is no stepladder but Sansa refuses to kneel for Tyrion to put his cloak around her. She's the POV character in that scene so we know that she does it out of a bit of pettiness to feel at least some power and control but I suppose it would have been kind of weird to do that in the show with no access to Sansa's internal monolog. And Tyrion is a lot more ambiguous in that scene in the bedroom. He admits to himself that he's sexually attracted to Sansa but feels ashamed for it. They go a lot further too, both getting undressed and it takes Sansa's obvious disgust at Tyrion's body for Tyrion to stop. In general, Tyrion is lot more morally gray in the books.

Kara

Worth adding that book Tyrion is a lot less conventionally attractive too. He's described very unflatteringly and the scar he has is a lot worse. The show lampshades this last episode (?) when Margery tells Sansa "he's quite handsome" referring to Peter Dinklage, who is basically way more attractive than book Tyrion.

Kara

Great reactions! I guess I'll say it: we know Daario (the wife guy from this ep) is from Bravos, the same place/city that Jaqen (the 'faceless man' Arya meets) is from. Melisandre has also said "Valar Morgulis" and we know she's from Essos, the continent that Dany is on right now (Westeros to the west, Essos to the east). Missandei (Dany's translator) also said it to her when they met. So at this point in the show we know it's not just faceless men (shapeshifters) who say "Valar Morghulis" (All Men Must Die) / "Valar Dohaeris" (All Men Must Serve), but different people from this region generally.

Christophe

Yeah, fair point. A lot of people are a lot less attractive in the books. Like Gwendoline Christie is way too stunning for Brienne.

Bob The SkuII

Long haired mercenary guy that joined danny is Francis/Ajax the main villain from Deadpool. he has been in other stuff but thats the biggest one most recently i can think of.

Ludus Aurea

Oh lort have mercy for next episode.

Ludus Aurea

Literally anyone who wasn't watching this show in real time had this same expectation hung over their head in 2013 because no one would shut up about it. So....

Kara

Just watched the 3x10 reaction and they did the "Everything" line from Davos and I remembered your comment, thought I'm come back to mention it.

Christophe

You're right, that must be why I was so surprised they didn't include it here, I must have remembered they did it at some point. Well, small mercies. It's a great line, it really would have been a shame to not include it.

OldManGrim

yeah book Tyrion his nose is completely gone IIRC
