Oliver Davis reviews the eighth episode of Game of Thrones Season Three....
Second Sons.
Directed by Michelle MacLaren.
Written by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.
It's the ante-penultimate episode (the one before the one before last). Episode 8 is usually the build-up for the season's main event in Episode 9. In series one, it laid the foundation for Eddard's be-ned-ing. In series two, it preceded the Battle of Blackwater Bay. Series three's teases the Riverlands' version of Kate and Wills, Edmure Tully's wedding to one of Lord Frey's daughters, and is full of subtle glances and looks before the undoubted spectacle of next week's installment.
Tyrion
...and what better to way to foreshadow a wedding than...another wedding? Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) wed Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) in a (literally in so many ways) small, awkward ceremony where everyone hated each other. Cersei (Lena Headey) ended a conversation with her future daughter-in-law, Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer), saying, »

This morning Bryan Singer tweeted an image of himself and Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones) as they prepped for another day's filming on X-Men: Days of Future Past, and now Singer has taken to Twitter once again, this time giving us our first look at returning X-Men: First Class star Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique...
The Mystique image is the latest in a series of character reveals from Singer, which have so far included James McAvoy and Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Nicholas Hoult as Beast, Halle Berry as Storm, Shawn Ashmore as Iceman and Ellen Page as Kitty Pryde. Singer still has plenty to see him through the shoot; we're yet to see X-Men veterans Michael Fassbender and Ian McKellen as Magneto, Anna Paquin as Rogue and Daniel Cudmore as Colossus, along with Dinklage's 'primary antagonist' (presumed to be Bolivar Trask), Fan Bingbing's (Iron Man 3) Blink, »

Directed By: Michelle MacLaren
Synopsis: The wedding of Tyrion and Sansa arrives; Melisandre takes Gendry to Dragonstone, where he encounters Stannis; the Hound reveals his plans for Arya; Daenerys looks to recruit the Second Sons; Sam & Gilly fight for survival beyond the Wall.
The Verdict: White Walkers, weddings, and witchcraft. Never a good mix in real life, but in this week’s Game Of Thrones, it makes for superb Telly.
Second Sons benefits greatly from more focus on fewer main characters, resulting in a nice fair balance in way of character screen time and plot development. Samwell’s scene especially benefits, his relationship with Gilly not only getting some great push here by the writers, but also resulting in a terrific action sequence that had this hardcore fan punching the air in fanboyish glee. Likewise, it’s nice to see Davos and Stannis back together again, »

Game of Thrones, Season 3, Episode 8: “Second Sons”
Written by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss
Directed by Michelle MacLaren
Airs Sundays at 9pm Et on HBO
Credit where credit’s due: in her second go at directing Game of Thrones, Michelle MacLaren once again gets an episode that’s relatively light on actual incident, but still manages to leave her mark through some indelible imagery and a healthy serving of gothic menace. Her talents ar most obvious in the closing sequence of “Second Sons,” in which Samwell Tarly must defend his beloved Gilly and her defenseless child…whatever his name turns out to be against a White Walker. From the Birds-esque massing of crows in the treeline to the showdown itself – the resolution of which is slightly cumbersomely foreshadowed by the show’s “previously on” reel – it’s a stunning couple of minutes. (With that said: if the next Samwell »

Appreciative fans welcomed the return this week of "Peter Drunklage," a reference to a character created to universal acclaim by "Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage during a recent "Saturday Night Live" appearance. Only three episodes to go, HBO has reminded us in their recent "Games" commercials, and in the first of these countdown chapters we got the first of the three weddings that form the centerpiece of George R.R. Martin’s source novel, "A Storm of Swords," the forcible unification of doe-eyed Sansa Stark with Tyrion Lannister, the crafty schemer Dinklage plays so entertainingly. (The patterns in Martin’s storytelling aren’t so over-neat that there will eventually be one wedding for each of the three leeches, swollen with the blood of a king, or anyway of the bastard offspring of a king, that Melisandre dropped sizzling this week onto a sacrificial BBQ grill. But almost.) This wedding was »

The chances of Game of Thrones' Sansa Stark getting out of King's Landing may have just disappeared. But if she has to be "wedded and bedded" by someone, better Tyrion than anyone else, especially since he is in no rush to give Tywin more grandkids. Still, Sophie Turner found it "really weird" to even pretend to get married; in real life, Turner is 17, three years older than Sansa. Vulture rung up the actress the morning after her character's long walk down the aisle, and she weighed in on whether Sansa could learn to love Tyrion, Peter Dinklage's amazing affinity for playing drunk, and her rap sessions with King Joffrey. Drunk Tyrion! He's back!Oh my God, it was so funny. We had such a good time with all of it. Peter did something different every time. He's just a hilarious person to work with. It brought back good »

Bryan Singer is using the power of social media to his advantage while he's filming his new movie, "X-Men: Days of Future Past." The director has been doling out daily updates about the movie, as well as first-look photos of James McAvoy as Charles Xavier, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Patrick Stewart as alternate universe Charles Xavier, Shawn Ashmore as Iceman, Nicholas Hoult as Beast and Ellen Page as Kitty Pryde.
Now Singer has added two new names to that long list. He tweeted a first-look image of Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique, as well as a behind-the-scenes photo of "Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage reading over a script.
"First look: #JenniferLawrence as a vengeful #Mystique," Singer tweets of Lawrence. He adds of Dinklage, "Reviewing tomorrow's work on the flight back to Montreal with #PeterDinklage."
Dinklage's role in "X-Men: Days of Future Past" has not been revealed yet. Also starring in the movie are Michael Fassbender, »

There are only two episodes left in "Game of Thrones" Season 3, and tensions are reaching a boiling point. Episode 9, "The Rains of Castamere," looks like it will focus primarily on Robb, Bran and Jon, all three of whom were noticeably absent from last night's "Second Sons."
In the "Rains of Castamere" promo, above, the Wildlings plan an attack on a Night's Watch area that Jon doesn't think is worth Tormund's time. Meanwhile Robb and Catelyn also seem to be planning an attack, and Catelyn forebodingly says, "Show them how it feels to lose what they love." It's unclear who exactly the "them" is in that situation, but it's obviously someone the Starks aren't very happy with. Also, if you look closely enough, you can see a brief snippet of Edmure Tully at his wedding.
The most interesting tease from this preview is that we finally get to see Bran warg. »

Bryan Singer has been pretty generous in tweeting behind-the-scenes images from the set of the currently-in-production X-Men: Days of Future Past, and this morning he's debuted a new image, this time featuring himself reviewing the screenplay with Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones), who is set to portray the film's as-yet-unconfirmed primary antagonist. Of course, Dinklage isn't in costume, but whoever he's playing, we can assume they'll be sporting an impressive moustache:
Last week, Singer gave us a look at Hugh Jackman's Logan and Nicholas Hoult's pre-transformation Hank McCoy [see here], while previous images have included Professor X (James McAvoy), Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page), Iceman (Shawn Ashmore), Storm (Halle Berry), Professor X (Patrick Stewart) and Beast (Nicholas Hoult).
X-Men: Days of Future Past is set for release on July 18th 2014, with a cast that also includes Michael Fassbender (Magneto), Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), Ian McKellen (Magneto), Anna Paquin (Rogue »

X-Men: Days of Future Past director Bryan Singer tweeted a shot of JLaw on set and the internet should be collectively foaming at the mouth.
