THIS WEEK on Game of Thrones: “The Climb”
It’s getting tougher to piece these recaps together in recent weeks on account of a school schedule that’s getting busier than ever; but it’s a labor of love, and a true pleasure to get to reflect on some of the most memorable television being made. Apologies to the OL community for the tardiness! Hopefully, this look back on ‘The Climb’ will whet your appetite for the next Thrones ep we’ll have coming this Sunday.
The episode this week was a strange mishmash of plodding and excellence. Let’s start with the rotten side of the apple.

‘X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST’ PIC: Counterculture PROFESSOR X needs a goddamn bath.
Okay, I’m digging this picture. It’s of Jimmy Mac as Professor X going straight counterculture. Chest out, immobile dong just looking for weed and love. Mannn.
ROBERT DOWNEY JR. in talks for TWO ‘AVENGERS’ SEQUELS, no word on ‘IRON GUY 4.’
Well this is interesting. RDJ is in talks to reprise his role as Really Rich Smart Guy in not one but two of those Avengers flicks. But what about Iron Guy 4, you’re proclaiming?! Who knows. My own personal take? Stark dies in Avengers 2, and “comes back to life” or whatever in the third.
What say you?
‘ENDER’S GAME’ TRAILER: I SHOULD READ THIS BOOK.
Despite The Dude lending me his copy of Ender’s Game something like five years ago at this point, I ain’t never read it. With this first trailer getting me a bit intrigued, it seems that now may be the time to shove this classic deep into my synapses.
SPACE PORN: Come on down to GALAXY COVE
My lordy, this is a gorgeous image. Taken by Rogelio Bernal Andreo, it depicts the Milky Way Galaxy as seen from a secluded park in none other than California.

‘STAR WARS: EPISODE VII’ to begin shooting in EARLY 2014. MY NIPPLES.
Why is this news? Because I jack off into a sock that I’ve fashioned to look like Chewbacca! That’s why. A new Star Wars is less than a year from filming. Oh God, the texture of my nipples as I type that sentence.
LEAKED MICROSOFT MEMO: Next XBOX to feature OFFLINE GAMING. Errbody calm down.
Ha! Suck it haters! Yeah, I’m talking to you! And you! And you! And Jesus Christ, pretty much every body I’m friends with. A leaked Microsoft memo confirms (confirms?) that the next Xbox will have core features that work offline. Namely, single-player gaming.
‘MAN OF STEEL’ TV SPOT: Prepare to UNLEASH KAL-HELL.
Get it? Kal-Hell? This new TV spot for The Movie of the Summer (you heard it here first) features a rather perturbed lookin’ Superman ready to lay down some whuppings.
Sign me up.
PIGS IS PIGS: ELECTRONIC ARTS snags exclusive ‘STAR WARS’ video game rights.
I want to be bitter about the fact that the fat ass Leviathan that is Electronic Arts has snagged the Star Wars franchise. However, maybe this means that they’ll churn out some space-worthy adventures. Just imagine! It has potential. For example, if this results in KOTOR 3, I’m going to jizz all over my belly.
