  1. Doesn't wanting to see him die like he did or similar, make the audience on some level almost as bad as he is. It was so obvious that he was going to die in the way that he did or similar, that I think it would have actually been more dramatic, if he just died in battle, incidentally. As for the character I think he was badly cast, written for, and too predictable. I suppose King Joffery was pretty predictable too, but he seemed to be a much more convincing villain. Actually when that young lord (?), who likes throwing people through moon doors, made a re-appearence, I think he came across as more sinister and scary than Ramsey has ever done.
  2. That was a penalty, he tried to be clever and decieve the referee by holding out his hands. But he pushed Silva to the ground with his chest.
  3. Ramsey was one of the worst characters, not sinister or funny. And I think they should have finished him off in a less dramatic way, like a stray arrow from one of his men or something like that.
  4. Only 45 players have ever scored more goals than him in the Premier league and he's not yet thirty. I imagine quite a few managers rate him.
  5. If Eng are to win the thing then they have to play some decent teams at some point. I haven't seen anybody so far who I'd say England wouldn't have a chance against.

    Memory Lane

    I've got a Proust to read, but I'm still only half way through Ulysses.
  7. Mimaroglu*, Volcanic Tongue, Weirdo Records and now Aquarius Records online retailers that have, all gone in the last year or so. Music's dead. Just learned that 'Other Music' as also gone, all that will be left is sites like Boomkat, Norman Records and Experimedia all selling exactly the same music. *Mimaroglu has relaunched as 'Broken Music', now based in Melbourne.
  8. I only I can answer that question. Why does anyone post on here.
  9. Why do I post on VillaTalk. (I'd wonder the same thing, if I posted on any other forum)

    Does sound interesting from the descriptions.
  11. Rickon could have just walked backward and seen the arrows coming, and so dodged them.
  12. I don't go by what Christian Bale says.

    80s Party!

    It could be the 60's, 70's, 90's, or whatever decade thread, and chances are, on here, it would end up sounding like it should be called 'the noise pollution' thread. But eighties music is particulary depressing.
  14. There's a reason jurors aren't allowed to talk with anyone, outside of the other jurors, about a case whilst it's ongoing.
  15. Yes, we need to be careful not to antagonize anyone if we're trying to make a name for ourselves on their shores.
  16. If we do buy other clubs and after Wyness's quotes it seems more likely <<<< I wonder what fans of those clubs will think of potentially having to have the Villa name incorporated into their name. I mean I presume most of us wouldn't have liked it if say Red Bull bought and incorporated their name into ours.

    Memory Lane

    Sometimes I'll be walking through an area, like a woods, with no man-made objects in view, and think to myself this how it could have looked hudreds maybe thousands of years ago(save maybe for pollution and weather affects). But for some reason my mind has trouble reconciling with that.
  18. England have looked better than Portugal so far.

    Memory Lane

    I find it strange to think that Beatle's music is as old now, as music recorded in the 1920's was in the Sixties. Also watching some of the 'World at War' documentary series earlier this year, I realised that the series was now older, than the amount of time that passed since the end of the war and when the series was filmed. I think it might have to do with, if your below a certain age then you see the distant past in black and white because that's how we're used to seeing it in the media.

    Memory Lane

    I remember reading a theory that the more novel the things you do are, the longer time, seems to last. And obviously as a child, everything is pretty new. I think the idea is that new experiences slows time perception down but repetition makes time seem to go faster.
