Game of Thrones Musical Medley!
We started the day with a Game of Thrones-based List of Six, so how about we continue it with some Game of Thrones-themed fan songs?
First up is ‘A Character I Used to Know’ from the girls at Not Literally.
I’m a big fan of this group. They wrote some awesome Harry Potter-themed songs that I posted a few years ago, and this new Game of Thrones song is delightful. Those are some quality babes.
Next up is ‘Rage of Thrones’ by the Axis of Awesome, who are a great comedy band. Warning, though, lots of swears and naughty words in this one. Protect your ears if you are able.
I’ve read the first two books, and yeah, they’re pretty darn good.
6 Thoughts on Game of Thrones Season 3
My favorite TV show on the air right now is HBO’s Game of Thrones. It’s deep, it’s sprawling, and it’s one of the most exciting TV shows I’ve ever seen. Production values are better than most movies these days. And the rich tapestry of characters is unlike any other show in history. That alone makes every episode an adventure, because there are so many characters and so many plots, there’s always something to like. The third season came to an end a few weeks ago, and just as I did for the first season of Arrow, I’ve decided to start reviewing TV seasons in Lists of Six.
I may be a few weeks late, but if you all saw the climax of season 3, then you know stuff like that takes some time to settle in the mind.

This list was suggested by friend-of-the-site Xavier. If you have any List of Six suggestions, or there’s a topic you’d like to see me write about, don’t hesitate to shoot me an e-mail at Hench4Hire@gmail.com.
I’m going to put a SPOILERS tag on this article, just in case some of my readers haven’t seen the full season yet. But at the same time, I’m going to assume anybody eager to read a list like this has already seen season 3. I’m going to be talking about the season and characters in depth, so please be warned. There’s a lot to talk about, I’m sure. And some more professional, academic bloggers might have some more in-depth analysis. But I’m just a dude who likes a TV show, and here are my six thoughts on Season 3 of Game of Thrones!
The Glory of Grand Theft Auto 5
This isn’t just a mere trailer for Grand Theft Auto 5. This is a fully-narrated exploration into all the corners of the new game, everything from crime to leisure activities to playing the stock market in-game. This…this is insane. This may be the most beautiful video game trailer I have ever seen in my life. I am still in awe. Watch, please.
How amazing was all of that!? We finally get to see how the switch between the three characters will work, and it looks so smooth and fun! And wow, just look at all of those awesome things to do! Golfing, bicycling, hunting, buying real estate, buying clothes, playing the stock market, and so much more! My biggest complaint for Grand Theft Auto 4 was that there was nothing to spend money on. Looks like they heard my complaints!
Seriously, though, that video was beautiful. I am drooling. I’m working to hook my X-Box 360 up to my new 27-inch computer monitor, so I’m going to have the game in full HD glory. I can’t wait for September!
Apocalypse Cancelled This Friday
Less than a week until Pacific Rim debuts and they cranked out yet another trailer! Good for them.
I’ve been posting these trailers right along, even though they’re all mostly the same footage and dialogue. But each one has been fun. And they haven’t dulled my excitement any. I’ll definitely be seeing Pacific Rim this weekend. How about you?
Final Dance Fantasy
Let’s start our Monday right with some Final Fantasy-inspired song and dance!
I always enjoy a good, rhythmic dance routine. If only those Step Up 2 the Streets movies used video game themes. Thick of the cross geek promotion! This video was made by Mike Song, though if I’m being honest, it probably could have used more beautiful women. Or maybe a whole army of dudes.
