Snap! Crackle! Pop Culture!

Game of Thrones Edition

Welcome to a new feature on my blog. Some of you may question why I am doing this, no comic reviews but I still have time to add new things? Well I will explain, this feature will be once a week. I will take some topic from the pop culture world and add tidbits off information on the topic, trailers, memes and gifs but most importantly; art pieces done by me. Yes, art pieces related to the topic, produced by me. 

To be honest, this is the reason why I started writing this crap (not actually crap) in the first place. Here you'll get a ton of things related to the topic of the week;

Trailer Trash-A trailer of sorts regarding the topic. 

My Memes- Funny memes regarding the topic from around the net.

Didn't U Know?- Some interesting facts regarding the topic of the week

You're Favorite "Insert Topic" Moment/Character/Story equals to Your Personality- Hard to explain, just check below

Art Gallery- A look at some art about the topic from the net, including my personal art I have done centered around the topic.

With GoT starting up soon, I thought this weeks edition would delve into this topic. Enjoy because Winter has arrived (bad joke!):

My Memes

 

 

Aaah! Jason Mamoa. The man who thought it smart to not star in a Marvel Movie yet is happy being second string to Sylvester Stallone. Seriously you died in the first season, you're nothing big so get your head out of your ass.  

Does anyone realize how Sean Bean seems to technically die in every movie of his? 

Though not in National Treasure, because well its Disney. Oh and apart from Troy, where everyone else seemed to die or would have died (seriously, how long do you think pretty boy Orlando Bloom could protect the run away Trojans)

 

 

 

Once I get my Marvel Cinematic Fan Cast together, you will see Aidan Gillen in a surprising role but if you're a GoT fan then you'll know why he is there. After all Knowledge is Power!!! 

Btw, fun fact: Gillen before Game of Thrones actually starred in a John Cena film. 

 

Reason 1: Why Game of Thrones and it's source book Song of Fire and Ice is better than anything else (especially Twilight). Reason 2: Because it just is!!!

   

Will need a second edition post-Season 3, cause GoT has just got some awesome Memes

Didn't U Know?

 

Jack Gleeson who plays King Joffrey was the kid saved by  Batman twice in Batman Begins. He was also told by Bruce to make something good of his life. Well guess what, he did just that!!!

Thanks Batman!!! The one time we wouldn't mind you not being a hero.

After Ridley Scott's Black Hawk Down; Orlando Bloom got the Lord of The Rings Trilogy, Tom Hardy became Bane, Eric Bana smashed as Hulk, Ioan Gruffared streched into the Fantastic Four but Nikolas Coster-Waldau became Jamie Lannister. He's still the better man from it. 

    

Waldau before he became arrogant and went toe to toe (or is it mouth to mouth?) with his sister; Cersei Lannister

 

Ya, this is the same kid whos played Bane and an MMA fighter in Warrior with the shoulder bone thick as your neck.

All child to young adult characters were bumped in age, a teen book Robb Stark became a 25 year old show one and so on. This was done for them to match Danaerys. She had to be aged because unlike in the books where she was a teenager, you cannot show her that young in explicit scenes.

Contrary to popular belief, Hodor is not a Pokemon. He actually looks like this which still seems like he's a dumb-ass.   

Osha is Tonks!!! Osha is Tonks!!! OMG!!! and she referenced it... 

         

More post season 3

Your favorite Game of Thrones Character = Your Perosnality

 

King Joffrey- You're a dick. Period.

Arya Stark- The most bad-ass girl in the world, when you turn 18 or if you're already 18 and above (not 30!!!) call me (smiles creepily)

Eddard Stark- You're too noble, this is not a world for nice guys and fools. Plus you have a tendency of dying in everything. Kenny!!!

Theon Greyjoy- I'm sorry you were adopted...worse still, as a prisoner.

Tyrion Lannister- You make up for your shortcomings (pun intended) by being cool. Guys want to be you (while retaining their height) and girls want to be with you (as long as you got the gold).

Daenerys Targaryen- You have dragons, you win. Game over.

Petyr Baelish- You're a self made man, you're parents must be proud...as long as they don't find out what you do. 

Hodor- You still cling onto the childhood memory of Pokemon, like Ash Ketchum you've barely grown.

Ros- You're a fan of the song 'We Saw Your Boobs' by Seth McFarlane, either that or you're my friend Ian Leshao or you're like him.

Cersei Lannister- You have some nasty habits. Be proud though, you could raise one son as a big player in politics.

Art Gallery

 

Finally what you've been waiting for. Since I have been doing a full time course in photoshop, I have learned how to do digital painting. Here is an original picture I am currently painting.

I will provide explanations and base guidelines on this piece once I am done with it. However in the near future look for my detailed explanation on a similar Digital painting I completed of Liam Neeson from The Grey.  

          

 This is of course the original season one poster with Sean Bean's Eddard Stark on the Iron Throne

    

This is my soon to be completed (well actually far from) digital painting of the same picture. It isn't as accurate, but this is just my second digital painting (talk about ambitious). 

Trailer Trash

 

Enjoy the Season 3 cast interviews below, not a trailer and definitely not trash.

Winter is Coming!
