    Why people can't just white-out spoilers is beyond me.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."

    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    'They all died horribly' is my stock response when my wife comes back in the room saying 'What did I miss?'.

    In Game of Thrones, it's usually true...

    Sorry Melon. Is there a way of putting spoilers in where u have to click to see it? I've seen that on other forums. And I didn't think that was too much of a spoiler, it just meant she wanders around naked for a bit (AFAIC remember, no rape or torture involved). Or does that count as another spoiler?

    I didn't think of that , sorry.

    Just didn't think it was that much of a deal. Lena Headey gets naked in pretty much everything she's in, and I don't expect this to be an exception

    Hmm, just tried it, not so useful if you're using Carbon Extreme style for Chrome (I don't personally like blinding white backgrounds) 'cos it shows up anyway.

    Re: Game of Thrones

    Last time I remember Lena Headey naked was about 17 years ago in the BBC drama Loved Up with Ian Hart. Certainly no nakedness in the Sarah Conner Chronicles unfortunately.

    ......Hold on a dim memory of concealed nakedness in 300 is slowly coming back to me now. Still I would contend that she doesn't really get nekid in everything she's in....mores the pity.

    its not .

    Youd like Tyrion ... I think..

    Sure theres porn , but it all seems necessary in solidifying events for one reason or another , its not like its just for the sake of it .

    The only times I can think of were that happened was Theon really , the rest has all been tasteful imo , and not willy in sight ..

    It sounds that way especially since in the last few pages people are more worried about actresses getting their tits out and graphic violence than talking about plot. It proves my point.

    Series which go down the path of excessive nudity,sex and violence,do it since it sells,and not for any real reason outside that. They lack imagination,and just need to spoon feed the viewer.

    Spartacus was so OTT,I started laughing at it and could not take it seriously.

    Edit!!

    Game of Thrones an HBO series. Meh,I should have expected that.

    They did make Tell Me You Love Me after all.

    You'll have excuse some of my more eager friends here , who any eye for for their measure of flesh - rest assured there is always someone ready to correct everything , when the proceedings get out of hand

    Seriously though , it is brilliant stuff , boys will be boyz but us girlies know a little better.

    It proves my point. How many people would be so enthusiastic about with 99% of the nudity gone,or if it was mostly male nudity??

    You might as well watch porn,TBH,if you want titillation. Its not like 20 years ago when porn was much harder to get hold off. The series sounds like a combination of Emmanuelle and a random fantasy background.

    It does make think the next HBO fantasy series will probably re-use the props from Tell Me You Love Me after all,because simulated sex without the visualisation of dangly bits won't be enough to effectively show anything...!

    this is why I watch it ... well one reason

    There is actually very little porn in it IMO , Im not sure why some folk here are focussed on it , I merely brought it up just because I know it matters to some - but not to me , the dialogue & story is fantastic , if you dont believe me watch for yourself..

    I think I will give it a miss. People told me the same about Spartacus and I really could not take it seriously. It looked like someone watched 300 and Caligula,and decided to make a TV series out of them with a different setting.

    Edit!!

    It is also quite funny,how all the men and women who take their kit off tend to be attractive ones. You would think if it you were going for the realism angle there would be old people and "ugly" people and lepers running around in the buff too covered in crap(maybe not the lepers then). Apparently only attractive,clean people exist in these NEO-Roman/Greek/LoTR/random fantasy type retellings.LOL.
