@thebird I think I would've made it into one of those reaction videos on YouTube.

I went from "zig zag! Zig zag!!!" To "noooooo!" To "go after him! Yessssss!"

Last night was some fierce tv. Game of Thrones? YAAAAS. Penny Dreadful? YAAAAAS. (But also nooooooo.)

[Jaded]

So for those of you who watch your CW shows on Hulu. Going into the next Season you'll only find them on Netflix. Goodluck with that.

Catriona Hartigan is the New Cool.

That depends entirely on whether or not there's a Season 4, I think. Which seems...questionable. At best.

I think the Game of Thrones episode had some of the best battle scenes I've seen on TV ever. Just following Jon Snow through the chaos of it was utterly exhilarating. Actually I'm struggling to remember any fantasy/historical show or even movie that's done a better job of it.

I'm not surprised to learn that it was the same director who did Hardhome, my second favorite big action episode on GoT.

@lordbelh "S6E9 Battle of the Bastards currently has a perfect 10/10 rating on IMDB with 34,000 votes"

...Holy shit.

This is unsurprising as the amount of satisfaction that the episode gives long-time viewers is insane. Between the bits with Dany and the bits with Jon/Sansa, it's pretty crazy.

Why would it depend? She's still the New Cool. DON'T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME.

I her. She's great.

in fact, most of the female characters of Penny Dreadful have been very compelling.

And man, Jekyll, Victor, and Dorian made a horrifying trio.

@Kanye-Qwest I love her resting bitch face. Since they went so far off the books now, they just need to have her in the show...like all the time.

@ThugHeaven There is nothing resting about that bitch face. That is active don't fuck with me face, and I love it.

This is quite a boast. I shall have to see evidence.

Link, please.

[Kanye Qwest]

@Ganymede Did you just ask for a link to the newest GOT episode? I mean..you already have the internet. Do we need to watch it for you, too??

[Bobotron]

I'm so far behind on GoT.

I just watched Hardhome.

HOLY SHIT.

[Arkandel]

@Bobotron Hardhome is the second best episode, yep!

You'll watch the best one when you get to next season. Don't rush through!

[Bobotron]

@Arkandel
I'm not rushing. But holy shit, fuck you Stannis. FUCK YOU I HOPE YOU DIE. (Yes, I just got done with the NEXT episode...)

[Coin]

How 'bout that episode of the Copa America just now? Damn.

Well they did have the aid of very good CGI
My favorites:
Medieval - Braveheart
19th century - Zulu,. Charge of the Light Brigade
WWII - Saving Private Ryan, A Bridge Too Far
Modern - We were Soldiers, Black Hawk Down
