*Slight spoilers for this week's Game of Thrones episode*
Frozen- Yes more Frozen news. I know, it's a problem. Anyway, it's been reported that Frozen is now the sixth-highest grossing film in history (not counting inflation). More importantly, it beat the 3rd Transformer movie that was on there, so that's good. I am getting concerned that it could maybe overtake Harry Potter, but it has to get through Iron Man 3 first, so I think it'll be ok. It does seem strange since the movie is out on DVD but who knows?
Girl Meets World- The first trailer for the show has been released and it looks really cute. Even the logo (see above) harkens back to the old days (ha, i mean the late 90s) when Biy Meets World was on the air. I definitely plan on watching, but all of this news is making me want to rewatch all of the BMW episodes, so I probably will start that up.
Netflix- It was announced yesterday that Netflix would be raising their prices for new customers from 7.99 to 8.99 for monthly use of their streaming services. Current users won't be effected for up to 1-2 years, but eventually the price will go up for everyone. I'm not sure how I feel between this and the huge Amazon Prime price hike, it'll be interesting to see how the consumers will respond.
Game of Thrones- Episode 3 featured a very controversial scene between Cersei and Jaime that, depending on who you asked, differed greatly from the book. I seen arguments from both side and definitely think that the writers, directors and actors completely got through the wrong message. They were tyring to show the conficted relationship and the back-and-forth with consent and all that was shown was Jaime forcing himself for her and Cersei never changing her mind earlier in the scene like it was in the book. This was a scene (before Sunday) that people only talked about for the grossness factor (in the books Cersei was on her period while her and Jaime were having sex by Joffrey's dead body), not to mention the blatant twincest. George himself even called this scene as the result of the snowball effect that came from having Jaime present at the end of Season 3, when in reality (the book) he doesn't show up until after the funeral. It will be interesting to see the fallout of their realtionship happen now that it is so different from how it happened in the books
