Game of Thrones Cast Leaves Westeros in Favor of Scandalous Addictions: Emilia Clarke, George RR Martin, Peter Dinklage, Sean Bean, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

George RR Martin, the Game of Thrones Books, and The Game of Thrones Cast We Love

It’s true, I can’t get enough of the Game of Thrones-- and I am manically asking “when does Game of Thrones start?”WHEN? Our televisions are awash with incestuous love, the South Park weiner song, rage, unnecessary deaths, and sweet, sweet sadness. Our misery and insatiable joy originate from George RR Martin and his marvelous Game of Thrones Books- I haven’t read them yet, because if the books are better, my TV experience will be ruined forever. Falling in love with the cast of Game of Thrones is easy, especially when they’re all beautiful, compelling (mostly), and herald a rich history of their own- in their double lives- or rather, their real lives.

The Map of Westeros in Real Life: The Cast of Game of Thrones Aren’t so Different from their Game of Thrones Houses

Sure, the fantasy map of Westeros is far more compelling than our mere unenchanting reality, but you might be interested to hear the cast of Game of Thrones may be well suited for their fictitious Game of Thrones Houses- which you’ll come to find out soon enough. You’re …show more content…

Jaime Lannister. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau’s Kingslayer represents not only incest, but a fairly common addiction to a person. Cersei and Jaime both spend most of the series trying to cope with their forbidden relationship and are constantly at war with themselves both internally and against the House of Lannister. Lena Headey comments, “There’s a moment of wanting to fill a void, and that is often very visceral, physical. . . there was an emotional block, and [Jaime] was just a bit of a drug for

    2166 Words  | 5 Pages

    In conclusion, While Clovis King of the Franks, the serf and the Southampton wool merchant each related to their individual communities in their own way, yet related to medieval society in general in a way that shaped it into the society we study today. It’s interesting how people can be so different socially and economically yet can still have an effect on society as a whole.

  • Home: The House of Usher and The Yellow PAper

    1668 Words  | 4 Pages

    A person’s home is a good representation of himself or herself. The way one takes care of their home can tell a story about the owner of the home and its residence. The members of the home may also affect the situations that take place, creating good or bad circumstances. In a story, a character's home does just that. The more or less elaborate it is explained, the more detail is presented about how the character is or will be. In “The House of Usher” and “The Yellow Wallpaper”, the elaborate descriptions of the characters and their homes set the story and can predict the outcome. A writer’s home and view of life may have a profound impact on their idea of home and therefore their writing that is produced.

  • Silence Of The Lambs Themes

    644 Words  | 2 Pages

    Silence of the Lambs, is commonly said to be one of the most famous thrillers made. After watching the film for the first time, I noticed the director had many interesting themes and concepts. Some of these themes included, good vs. evil, the search for peace, judging a book by its cover, and gender and sexuality in the workplace. The theme I found most interesting, and what I found the director made most apparent, was gender and sexuality in the workplace. The director showed that gender and sexuality in the workplace was the most noticeable theme because of the constant contrasts set between Clarice and her male co- workers, her continuous denial about her femininity, and the amount of danger Clarice runs into because as a women, she is always having to do things on her own.

  • High Fantasy: The Games of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

    1334 Words  | 3 Pages

    High Fantasy is a relatively new genre, having only been introduced in the late 1800s. Through the novels that fall under this category, authors have had the opportunity to respond to critical social issues that are prevalent in their lifetime. This has allowed the genre to mature along with the advancement of our culture. High Fantasy has rapidly developed into a genre that is widely appreciated and accepted; George R.R. Martin has contributed to this progression through his novel The Game of Thrones, in which he responds to past authors, social issues of today, and the High Fantasy genus.

  • Mise-en-Scene in Edward Scissorhands

    848 Words  | 2 Pages

    The houses are all lined in formation, with similar colors and structure. Even the colors and decorations in the houses are all pretty much the same, pinkish red and yellow, that makes everything feminine and monotonous, perhaps even boring, just like the houses on the outside. The people of the town are all different, but are all narrow-minded in the same way, which is shown when they gather and gossip about Edward (Burton, 1990). These are all examples of how there is not much difference from one another in a way that they are all controlled by the same, concrete social group. What the beginning of the film brings us is a type of realism where people live in the excessive stereotype of suburban America.

  • Examples Of Realism In The Real Thing

    891 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the main reasons for picking this section was how well it explained the themes and ideas that Henry James was trying to convey in “The Real Thing”. This article was able to help us better understand the use of realism and how it had an impact on the story and characters. The main driving force behind “The Real Thing” is the nature of what is real and what is simulated. The Monarch’s seem to pass for wealthy, upper class citizens, from the way they talk, act, and even dress, and the Artist believes it as well. “For the narrator, Mrs. Monarch stubbornly remains ‘the real thing’; the Monarchs radiate the aura of wealth and its desired associations” (Bazargan 135). However, the Monarchs were only trying to pass as wealthy in the eyes of others, even when they had no such wealth. This view that the Artist had of the Monarchs overlapped into his paintings, and he was never able to portray them as they were, instead, only as he perceived them to

  • Sun Also Rises Theme

    678 Words  | 2 Pages

    The Sun Also Rises written by Ernest Hemingway is an accurate portrayal of the “lost generation” of young adults who had to once again discover who they really were after much disillusionment and a lost sense of purpose following World War I. The distinction of what is socially acceptable becomes lost in the attempts of the lost generation to establish their own code of ethics by which to follow. Within the story, Brett Ashley, Robert Cohn, and Jake Barnes have no specific goals for themselves, but they are constantly seeking to find pleasure and happiness within their life. It is not until the end that Brett admits that she and Jake would have had fun together, and Jake simply replies, “Isn’t it pretty to think so?” There is a constant search for acceptance, fulfillment, and conclusiveness to make their lives count and rise above the mediocrity of everyday.
