Today’s bit of funny comes from our old friend Xavier. I always love a bit of Game of Thrones humor. That’s what the Internet is made for. And if you guys and gals spot a funny video or something blog-worthy on the web, feel free to drop me a line at Hench4Hire@gmail.com. Because sometimes I’m just too lazy to find the really good stuff!

6 Thoughts on Game of Thrones Season 4
Wow, what a finale! I had certain fears and expectations for the Season 4 finale of Game of Thrones, but the actual episode blew all of them away! Every storyline seemed to get a really big bump in excitement, and I think it might have been the best finale in the show so far! So it’s a shame that I actually started writing this list before seeing the finale, heh, because that final episode kind of turned my feelings on the season around, at least little bit. Still, let’s not let that deter us, and let’s celebrate Season 4 of Game of Thrones!
I read a pretty good description of Game of Thrones online the other day. It basically pointed out that we missed the big, heroic, happily ever after story decades ago, when the heroic Robert Baratheon and his best friend Ned Stark battled the evil Targaryen family to save the kingdom from madness. That story had everything: handsome heroes, beautiful princesses, epic battles, glorious victories and good triumphing over evil. It also had happy endings. Robert got to marry the beautiful Cersei, and promised to be a just and fair king. Ned got to retire from war to go home and raise his family.
The lesson that follows, of course, is that life doesn’t have happy endings. Life doesn’t just end when the story is over. Life goes on, and it’s never as good as your glory days, and that’s Game of Thrones. It’s the bitter, petty, regretful life that inevitably comes after the Happily Ever After.
Join me after the jump for my thoughts on Season 4! And please note that there will be MAJOR SPOILERS for the entire season!
The Trial of Tyrion Lannister
Since there was no new Game of Thrones this past weekend, I thought today would be the perfect day to indulge in some more awesome Only Leigh animation! Behold her silly, animated vision of the trial of Tyrion Lannister!
Ser Pounce remains probably the best character in the show. No doubt he’ll be dead before the end of Season 4.
Getting Caught Up With Game of Thrones!
We’re less than a week away from the new season of Game of Thrones! Get caught up with this handy, dandy Honest Trailer!
I love comedy. This Honest Trailer was spot on! That Faceless Assassin really is awesome! I hope we see him again real soon. All of the trailers so far seem to indicate that Season 4 might be the best one yet! I am definitely looking forward to Sunday. Thanks to the Screen Junkies for delivering their usual awesomeness.
New Trailers for Things We Love!
This is going to be a week of movie trailers, and the world kicks things off with new, exciting trailers for Amazing Spider-Man 2, Game of Thrones and Godzilla! Seriously, these are three pretty wicked trailers. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
First up, the last trailer for Amazing Spider-Man 2, with a bigger focus on the Green Goblin and Rhino.
With each new trailer, this movie just looks better and better.
Now a quick trailer for season 4 of Game of Thrones with some new footage, a new song and a whole bunch of excitement!
Then we have the international trailer for Godzilla, with again, some new footage and a whole bunch of excitement. I’m not so sure about the song in this one though. Can we get someone in maintenance to take a look at it?
So which are you guys and gals more excited for? New Spider-Man, new Game of Thrones or new Godzilla? I’m torn.
