‘Games of Thrones’: Critics welcome return of ‘brilliant’ show《权力的游戏》第七季开演 各方评论活跃

Mindy Kaling is pregnant

“Game of Thrones” has returned for its seventh season — and the critics are generally quite happy about it.

“It was a thrill* to have the show back and it looked more stunning* than ever,” wrote The Independent’s reviewer.

“By the end of the episode it is clear that the stage is now set for a war of truly epic proportions,” wrote Jess Kelham-Hohler of the Evening Standard.

Yet Digital Spy’s Alex Mullane did feel the episode — entitled “Dragon-stone” — was “a little underwhelming in places.”

The fi rst episode of the show’s sev-enth series was broadcast in the U.S. on Sunday evening and in the early hours

of Monday morning in the U.K.Only one more season of the epic

fantasy saga, inspired by the works of author George RR Martin, is planned after this one.

Dragonstone opened in typically gory fashion with members of the late Walder Frey’s house dying in numbers after imbibing* poisoned wine.

It also featured the introduction of a new character, played by the Oscar-winning Jim Broadbent, as well as a cameo* from pop star Ed Sheeran.

Reviews of the episode welcomed Broadbent’s performance as Arch-maester Marwyn, with the Hollywood Reporter saying he “fi ts into this ensemble fl awlessly*.”

Yet critics were far less complimen-

tary* about Sheeran, whose appear-ance as a soldier was dubbed “jarring” and “unsubtle” by The Independent’s Christopher Hooton.

In his role as an unnamed singing soldier, the chart-topping performer is seen telling Maisie Williams’ Arya Stark that the song he is singing is “a new one.”

According to the Daily Mirror, the exchange “could only have been more awkward if he’d winked at the camera after and said ‘Available at all good record stores’.”

Many reviewers felt the episode’s main function was to set the scene for the rest of the season, with Empire’s James White calling it “a fairly standard kick-off.” (SD-Agencies)

“RoboCop” is ready to serve and protect once again.

Monday marks the offi cial 30th anni-versary of the 1987 classic, and Alamo Drafthouse is using RoboCop‘s birthday to unveil some good news. Director Paul Verhoeven’s fi lm is returning to theaters for a one-night event that will feature RoboCop himself, actor Peter Weller.

thing to remember: Even if you can’t make it to Dallas, the Alamo Drafthouse screenings will also be “RoboCop” par-ties, with props* galore.
