GAME OF THRONES #4:Cripples, Bastards, and Broken Things-ACT 4 Chapter 1-2011

[Celtavian]

No reason to think the tournament is over, is there?

Wasn't Ned at the tournament? It seems they went into events that occurred after the tournament and characters that were at the tournament were elsewhere later in the episode. I think its over, but hoping it is not.

Gotta put it into perspective; grandeur in the middle-ages ain't what it is today. Having said that, I do feel like they could've done with more of a crowd.

King's Landing is still a pretty impressive city. I would have thought they would have had a better built tournament grounds. It seems like they did in the book. I think Sansa and the Starks had their own box like the king. Wasn't Sansa sitting with the other noble ladies? I think someone came and gave her a flower or something.

I'm actually a bit underwhelmed by the preview of him; he's absolutely nothing like how I envisioned him. I saw him as being a lot younger, for one thing.

Quite a few characters don't look as I thought they would. I don't mind too much.

We'll see how the actor plays Bronn. If he gets the quiet, confident, brutal, opportunistic personality down, then I'll be happy. He better be a bad to the bone fighter.

They may not be done with the tournament. It went on for a while in the book also. They may still plan on showing the melee. That's where quite a few secondary characters are actually "seen" for the first time.
