    Me estanqué mucho en esta temporada, y no me culpo, creo que hizo falta un progreso mas significativo en la trama general para atrapar a mas audiencia, se que no le hace falta, pero aveces la serie es demasiado lenta, esto no quita que sea una de las series mas prestigiosas de la tv.

In this season i could feel a true and big development in pretty much every arc with each character, not just with them but also with the world that they created, things are getting more and more solid to each episode that i saw. The show continues to be divided in several cores, now in season 3 each one got sustenance, you understand the path of the character and also care about them, some cores started meeting with others wich is perfect, it isn't just nice to see this kind of crossover but also make things start to fit a little more, felling that everything is really connected.
    They were very happy on putting Jon Snow to work with the wildings, giving then another point of view, it wouldn't be like "the enemy is trying to invade and lets kill them", they gave another standpoint in the best possible way, putting us next to them, showing how they are and how their system work, what they do, that was great. Together with that they come up with a not just very good, but also a teach of make relationships works in a show, because when Jon and Ygritte start making out, it feels nautral and very organic, a lot of the time that it happens i other shows it feels forced, but here i completely bought it.
    The Daenerys core that in the last season i didn't liked very much, in this one they completely turned around. Her journey in this season was great, the left point in last season was she looking foward an army, and in this season when she is looking to it she can be, sarcastic and confident without saying much, you can just tell that she knows what she is doing, the whole arc was pretty damn cool, how they placed her with respect and how she reciprocated, releasing and staring people, her savior aspect really pleased me, she is most likely one of the best beings in the show.
    The cast is still great, great job have been done here. Lena Headey and Peter Dinklage keep proving that they were the perfect cast for this characters that could have ever been, they both can pass perfectly what they characters are, being angry and vile, or afraid and insigne, they do a perfect counterpoint for eachother. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau kind of had a turn in this season, his character pass throw somethings and he had to convince me that he was changed in some ways, and he definely did, i believed that he was changed with what he learned while he was where he was, i'm just not sure to what he changed. Emilia Clarke exhaled concern and will to help, so as confident, she did a great counterpoint to almost the rest of the world. Richard Madden during the whole show was pretty good, he make me beilieve in his leader spirit, and had firmness in his voice. Aidan Gillen did a great season so as he was doing before, in this one he keeped being so great as he was being but also he had a very nice speech that deserved a shoutout. Charles Dance also keeped being that one guy, that you believe that he is in charge, rather he is with a crown or not, he exhaled power. Maisie Williams character is becoming my favorite one step by step, she does a great job with her will. Jack Gleeson was still great, he totally keeps convince me of what his character is, how he think that he is the boss while cleary he won't and he is finding it out little by little with fear. Rose Leslie was great, she had a sarcastic tone in almost everything that she say and had a rock voice that gave some charm. Iwan Rheon was terryfing here, he was psychotic and completely unpredictable.
    In this season they gave another point of view not just for the wildings, but also for other characters that we already new before, characters that was most likely that we didn't like, giving layers and showing that everybody in that place can be evil or good, or most likely both. There is one character that you don't like because he is evil, but then you find another that is just worst and next you star cheering for the one that you didn't like before to do something, that is amazing what they do here. It shows that every person can be changeable.
    Some moments was confused and i felt that could have had a little more of explanation of that, a little things felt out of place, the cgi was good, but not perfect.
    Some scene construction was breathtaking, some epic moments were in this season and definely one of, or the most shocking and brutal moment that i have ever seen in a screen in my life, that really make me feel strange and believe that they aren't afraid of anything, proving that anything can happen with anyone in any circumstance.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Game of Thrones season 3 is just another A+ season. Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage, Maisie Williams, Lena Headey, Charles Dance, Michelle Fairley, Sophie Turner, Richard Madden, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Rose Leslie, Carice van Houten, Kit Harington, Jack Gleeson, and Alfie Allen gave phenomenal leading performances. The supporting cast also gave wonderful performances especially from Diana Rigg, Gwendoline Christie, John Bradley, Rory McCann, Liam Cunningham, Natalia Tena, Natalie Dormer, Paul Kaye, and Jerome Flynn. The storytelling and writing continues to be terrific. The makeup effects were very impressive this season especially the White Walker, Jamie's cut wound, and all of the other stab and cut wounds. The visual effects were fantastic especially the three dragons, they are so awesome looking. The fighting scenes were excellent especially the fight scene between The Hound and Beric and the fight scene in episode 9. The music in this season was great especially the songs It"s Always Summer Under the Sea and The Bear and the Maiden Fair. Also the last scene of the season was great, it was cool to see Daenerys getting more people to help her. Game of Thrones just continues to be my 2nd favorite tv show of all time and this season was even better then the first two seasons.… Expand

    Game of Thrones season 3 was quite as amazing as the last ones. The new characters introduced were awesome. The Red Wedding was just shocking and crazy. The plot always moves at a great place. The writing is always great and the battle scenes and fighting is amazing. The Rains of Castamere might be my favorite episode ever.

    The third season of Game of Thrones has everything you could want: well-developed characters, good dialogue, great acting, exciting action, and one extremely shocking episode.

No one is safe and every story is in constant flux where calm doesn't mean peace and peace doesn't mean safety. A bloody culling of staples the 3rd season shows this ensemble at their best,each storyline flexing it's best parts. A complex drama that exposes wars real uncertainty finds it's humanity in it's brutality. The set design,scoring,locations and performances share a seat with the best of television. This is a cultural moment that justified any claim of "game of thrones" being the best show ever made(without hyperbole). The decision to change the stakes how they had been gives a reset that only continues to up the ante,game of thrones is competing with itself.… Expand

    There are few sagas nowadays that grip you from start to finish like the third season of Game of Thrones does, the best of eight. And there are few seasons like this that are virtually flawless.

The episode 3x09 "The Rains of Castamere" is a milestone on the television productions of the decade, perhaps the most successful episode of the entire saga, when, in an episode that is at times normal, the last five minutes are enough to inevitably upset definitively and permanently the balance that was accompanied by two seasons and which will condition the following ones.

    While Season 3, like the novel on which it is based, takes a little while to get going, when it does pick up speed, it soars--particularly in the sensational third and fourth installments.

    If Game of Thrones still feels like it's just a bit weighed down by the sheer heft of its narrative strands, to say nothing of the seemingly endless backstories and mythologies, the series at least now feels like it has some firm footing and a newfound sense of certain direction that was lacking intermittently in the second season.
