Emmys 2014

26/8/2014

"Breaking Bad. B*tch." as Jesse Pinkman would say. Emmys 2014 big winner was Breaking Bad & Sherlock. True Detective lost all big categories and Modern Family proved that it still has it! Julianna Margulies (Good Wife) is the undoubtable drama queen, while Julia Louis-Dreyfus the queen of laughs (and kissing). Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story: Coven and The Normal Heart took home also some awards and Jim Parsons made everybody jealous of his Emmy (not Amy) and his big fat pay check.

After that she has to remember him!

The award show itself was very good written by the Late Night with Seth Meyers writters and of course the man himself was hilarious; especially that open monologue. No musical numbers. No shenanigans. Just good old comedy. The tribute to Robin Williams was touching and showed some of his best work in stand up comedy. 

Funniest part of the show other than the jokes? Weird Al performing TV show music themes! Gotta love the GoT theme with guest star George RR Martin! Valar Morgulis!

Game of Thrones season 4 recap: Spoilerful 

18/6/2014

Arya kills for the first time

And so it is….. Another Game of Thrones season ended… Valar Morghulis my friends... No one is safe...

An amazing season I would say with lots of WTF moments… Let’s recap a bit the season through those jaw dropping moments! (It goes without saying that this post is full of spoilers to those who have not yet watched season 4!!)
Picture

Arya makes her first kill on episode 1, with the help of the Needle while the Hound delivers the “chicken speech”! “Every fucking chicken in this room…“ 

Oberyn... in every scene

Picture
Oberyn in every single scene! Whether it is the introductory scene in Littlefinger’s brothel, his touching discussion with Tyrion about the first time that they actually met or his marvelous death…. 
“- Are you going to fight that? - I am going to kill that.” An amazing character that was built up in only one season and made us all morn his death at the 8th episode…

The Purple Wedding

Picture
Well, who can forget the first major WTF moment of the season: The Purple Wedding! Joffrey’s death was such a shocker although everyone waited/hoped for it. The way that the episode was building up to this, makes this the second best episode of the season! 

Littlefinger has big plans

Picture
Littlefinger’s betrayals were revealed during this season. So yes, it seems (at least for now) that this Irish is behind everything! His ultimate WTF moment: the moon door…

Goth Sansa

Picture
Following Littlefinger’s Machiavellian ways, Sansa makes the ultimate surprise by supporting his story and then has a makeover (to hide her red Stark hair) revealing a more goth look…. 

The controversial scene

Picture
At episode 3 we had one of the most controversial scenes..... A rape that ends up consensual? Jamie and Cersei have sex/Cersei is getting raped (I told you: controversial scene) on their son’s death bed. Doesn’t get nastier than that...

Ygritte knew everything

Picture
After the jaw dropping best episode of the season with Oberyn’s death, the action is tranfered at the Wall where I think the most WTF moment was Ygritte’s death… “You know nothing Jon Snow..”, she whispered for the last time...

Take a walk on the wild side (with the whitewalkers)

Picture
And who can forget the white walkers?? We (finally) saw them again, and it was spooky!!

Hodor! Hodor! Hodor! 

Picture
Hodor was playing a bigger part this season, with him finally taking a stand (with the help/possession of Bran) and shouting proudly “Hodor” to whoever was in his way! 

Tyrion objects

Picture
A moment that is not so much WTF but will be the key to Peter Dinklage winning yet another Emmy, was the powerful trial speech scene with Tyrion telling the population of King's Landing exactly what he thinks of them.
"Father, I wish to confess. I wish to confess…"
And I believe the last WTF moment(s) came at the season finale, with Tyrion escaping (thankfully) but facing Shae and his Father…. 

Bonus Scenes

Sansa slapping Robin

Picture
It was about time

Daario's wink

Picture
Westero's most eligible bachelor

Reek’s bath (of horror) 

Picture
Can a guy take a bath without fearing for his (remaining) manhoud?

Olenna's been a bad girl...

Picture
"I was good… I was very good…" Damn girl!

    Her Dudeness

    Ever since I first set foot on a cinema theatre, I knew that something magical was happening there....

    It's this thrill of somehow becoming (even for a little while) part of the other people's lives -  from different countries, times, cultures.

    It's watching Marlon Brando in "The Godfather", it's singing "Shout!" at the tonga party in the "Animal House", it's Brad Pitt screaming "What's in the box?" at "7seven", it's overall the feeling that somehow "you're not in Kansas anymore"...
