TV/Movies / Re: Game Of Thrones: Some Fascinating Facts, Behind The Scene Magics We Dont Know. by FrankValency(m): 9:31am On Apr 25, 2016 |
Credit: HBO The South Dorne, to be precise. Here events transpired that I would not have predicted in my wildest of prognosis. Ellaria Sand and the Sand Snakes overthrow Prince Doran. In the first few moments of the scene, both Doran and Areo Hotah are killed. What!!!?? While we don’t know where the books may go at this point, I can’t help but think this is wildly far from what Martin has planned for Doran. Ellaria treats her lover’s brother with disdain, as some weakling, but in the books at least Doran is calculating and patient and ultimately far more clever than this. Unless we’ve all been bamboozled, I (and many others) had come to believe that Doran was playing a very long and careful game (of thrones) and that he had quite a bit more to say on the matter. Not so in the show, however. Ellaria is the new boss it would seem. Doran and his son Tristane are dead for a ducat dead. Ellaria is no schemer. Does this mean Dorne will raise its banners and go to war immediately? It would seem almost necessary at this point. I’m not sure I really like this at all, to be honest. Doran is an interesting character, and killing him outright because he wouldn’t march off to war seems drastic. I mean, Ellaria is mad because Oberyn was killed in a fight. So she kills his brother? I guess I’ll reserve judgment until we see how this plays out, but after this and some other stuff that happened tonight and last season, I’m more impatient than ever for Martin to finish Winds of Winter, if only to compare these two very different works of fiction. We’ll hop on another ship and sail north again, this time hovering just above Jaime Lannister’s shoulder, so that we can see that look of pain on Cersei’s face when we finally reach… King’s Landing While I loathe Cersei in the books, I can’t help but feel sorry for her in the show. Game of Thrones paints a far more sympathetic character in the Queen Regent, though she’s still fairly nasty, petty and cruel, and much of her fate comes from her own bad choices. She blames a prophecy, but had Cersei been wiser and less brash, or raised a better child in Joffrey, it’s possible all her children would be alive and none of this madness would have happened to begin with. Jaime and Cersei are close again, and I’m not sure how that’s supposed to play out. I suppose they’ll need to first deal with the High Sparrow, and then set their sights to both the North, where Roose Bolton has betrayed them, and to the South where the Dornish will be presumably mustering an army. Since the show has killed off Stannis and his army, that’s not really a concern anymore. Also in King’s Landing we find Margaery Tyrell, still imprisoned by the High Sparrow. She asks about her brother Loras, whose crime was being gay, and refuses to confess to things she didn’t do even when the High Sparrow asks nicely. Will she and her brother be rescued by the Lannisters? Could Jaime save the pair of them? It seems likely. Jaime will once again be cleaning up his sister’s messes. Things are heating up in King’s Landing, but not a whole lot else happens here, so we’ll sail further still, heading… more coming soon |

'Game Of Thrones' Season 6 Premiere Review: The Red Woman Credit: HBO Well Game of Thrones is back. The night is dark and full of terrors. Winter is coming. And lots of big surprises—some good, some bad—follow me as we embark on the sixth season of HBO’s fantasy drama. Let’s go through the episode piece by piece, beginning in… The North We may as well, since we’re discussing Brienne’s valiant rescue to begin with. The lady knight was already waiting around Winterfell to rescue Sansa, which is why she was able to stumble so fortuitously on Stannis Baratheon and introduce him to her blade. (To be fair, he could still be alive. I suspect we’ll discover the truth of it next week.) It makes sense, then, that she’d show up even if the timing was a little too perfect. If I were a savvy knight, I’d follow the trackers sent to hunt Sansa down rather than try to find her myself. In any case, she and Podrick both ride in and save the day, though perhaps the most important moment was when Theon stabbed the Bolton soldier and saved Podrick. It’s good to see Reek falling off, and Theon emerging. I loved this scene mostly because it’s the first good thing that’s happened in a long time on Game of Thrones. It’s one horrible event after another sometimes—the end of Season 5 was so bleak, so sad, so depressing—that this small victory feels all that much more profound. Of course, the North isn’t all sunshine and roses. Ramsay is out for blood, and he won’t stop looking for Sansa simply because she’s escaped his first hunting party. Castle Black isn’t even a decent refuge for her now that Jon Snow has been murdered, though she won’t know about that yet. At Castle Black we have several of Jon’s friends in the Watch holed up with Davos, Melisandre and Ghost, Jon’s Direwolf. Oh, and Jon’s very dead body. Ser Alliser Thorne has taken control of the Night’s Watch and, in spite of some grumblings and discontent, seems to have the place firmly under his thumb. Things aren’t looking good for our small handful of brothers, though reinforcements might be on the way in the form of Wildlings. Perhaps the most interesting moment of the entire episode came at the very end, however, when we see Melisandre alone in her chambers, once again stripping naked—though this time she’s alone. She removes the choker from around her throat, and suddenly she changes. We see her reflection in the dark mirror: She’s old, withered away, sagging and tired. Her youth and beauty is nothing more than a powerful illusion. This reminds me of the sorceresses from The Witcher games, who mask their age and look young and beautiful to all the world. Pretty fascinating, though I’m not sure yet what to make of it. Melisandre, the Red Woman, seems to have lost her faith. Meanwhile, Davos thinks she may be their only salvation. I still wonder if she will be the one to bring Jon Snow back… Let’s set sail, and head to… the south 1 Like |

HBO have finally confirmed that Game of Thrones will return on April 24, 2016 ,which is today. Sky Atlantic will simulcast the premiere with HBO,HBO is UK TV channel, so UK fans won't be missing out. It'll be shown first at 2am then again at 9pm. Nigerians shouldn't worry because we will get the download link tomorrow. Plot: The Preview Beyond the wall, Bran Stark has been training with the Three-Eyed Raven, having last appeared in the season four finale episode "The Children". According to an interview conducted with Isaac Hempstead Wright about Bran's plot line in season six, the training largely expands his previous ability to see into the past and future, and allow him more control to piece things together. He also discovers his role in the wars to come. Near the Dothraki Sea, after being surrounded by a khalasar Daenerys Targaryen is taken captive and discovers that the Dothraki have certain traditions for widows of fallen Khals. In an interview with Emilia Clarke, she stated of Daenerys's plot line, "She's learning the last lesson she needs to learn. There's just few remnants of being a human being she's shaking off. In King's Landing, Jaime Lannister has returned to Cersei Lannister with the body of their daughter Myrcella, and the two must work together to overcome the rising influence of the Faith Militant and the High Sparrow. In Meereen, Tyrion Lannister, accompanied by Varys, Grey Worm, and Missandei, will strive to keep order and manage the city using "Westeros-style politics" to prevent it from falling into chaos following the departure of Daenerys. At Winterfell, Ramsay Bolton and his forces are in pursuit of Sansa Stark and Theon Greyjoy, following their escape at the end of the last season. Tighten ur seat belts, happy viewing in advance.

Crime / Man Cuts Off A Guys Hands For Raping His Daughter (graphic Pictures) by FrankValency(m): 1:05am On Apr 22, 2016 |
The father of an eight-month-old rape victim allegedly chopped off both hands of the 17-year-old accused in Punjab’s Bathinda district, India on Tuesday, April 19. Parminder Singh had allegedly raped the man’s 7-month-old daughter in April 2014 and was arrested and arraigned in court. The victim’s father and the accused, who were neighbours, met in court for the hearing yesterday and after that, the victim’s father reportedly asked Parminder to reach a compromise and accompany him on his motorcycle to the village. When they reached near Jhumba village, he allegedly tied the teenager to a tree and attacked him with a sharp-edged weapon. Besides inflicting injuries on his head and other parts of his body, the man chopped off both his hands, said police. chopped-02 Some villagers rushed Parminder to the Bathinda civil hospital, where his condition was stated to be critical. Dr Ajay Gupta, who treated the victim, said both his hands were chopped off and cops brought the limbs later. “He (the father) took him near a dried up canal, beat him up badly and then tied him to a tree and finall hacked his hands off. There is nothing below the wrists now,” Swapan Sharma, a police officer of Bathinda, told AFP by telephone. “Locals alerted the police and we rushed to the spot. We picked him up, his hands, and took him to the hospital,” Sharma added. According to Indian Express, the mother of the baby had allegedly found the accused molesting her child in April 2014. Police registered a rape case and the teen was sent to a juvenile remedial home pending trial. The police said a case of attempted murder has been registered against the victim’s father, a brick kiln labourer, who fled after the incident. tiwasblog.co/2016/man-chops-off-hands-of-teenager-who-raped-his-8-month-old-daughter-photos/
