  1. do you think she fits the role? In comics she is typically drawn not as a Greek or Israeli person but more like a northern european one. But later/more modern comics have her looking more like her origin.

  3. I'm not that hardcore with the ending lore but I think the whole Dark Souls series has some influence by Dante's Divine comedy. The Divine Comedy has Dante's spirit awaken in purgatory. He then travels to Hell, and then paradise while encountering many tortured or lost human creatures. Once he reaches Paradise, the story ends with a 'breaking of the cycle' and enlightenment. Dark Souls 3 even starts in a similar atmosphere. I think this ending is the breaking of the cycle, and 'the embers' mean the likelihood of an eventual rebirth. What do you think of the ending?
  4. I heard none of the Wonder woman films were very good anyway. I have a copy of WW1 and haven't been interested enough to watch it yet.
  5. I am almost done with Feast for Crows. I give it a 4 out of 5 compared to 5-6 out of 5 for the first two books and 4.7 out of 5 for the third. Despite its flaws it is still entertaining. The main value of the book is the extensive lore and internal monologues that expand knowledge of many of the characters. However the plot, which was already slow in Storm of Swords ..slows down to glacial pace. In a way it comes across as 'chronicles' of Westeros and has a different tone than the previous books. But it is not as good as the previous 3 books. I can sense that GRRM exhausted most of his best ideas and characters. He becomes very repetitive with the same themes/tropes and doubles down on feminism. This new generation of characters is not as good as the previous one. About 1/4th of the book is soap-opera like content that could have been deleted. The Ironborn and Dorne content in particular is not as good/boring and Cersei's expanded evil eventually gets monotonous. Sam-gilly and Brienne are annoying at this point. Arya and Jaime's storylines continue to be among the best.
  6. She could pass for a tranny to be honest. it's because her nose/jaw and overall face profile is more masculine than feminine. Kind of an interesting looking woman though.
