Here’s the Hound, not wearing a helmet. That guy’s not wearing a helmet. This guy just had his head smashed in, he wasn’t wearing a helmet. That one, the guy that got his throat slit, if he had been wearing a helmet, that wouldn’t have happened. I’m wearing a helmet right now. Everybody should wear a helmet… There once was a Superbowl where Thurman Thomas, of the Buffalo Bills was going to be in the Superbowl, but he was unable to find his helmet, so he didn’t actually start the Superbowl game. Shoulda had his helmet… See, see Tyrion there? He’s wearing his helmet… but he just took it off, and as you see he’ll rue it……. That guy should have been wearing a helmet.

George R. R. Martin’s commentary track on the ‘Blackwater’ episode of Game of Thrones (via langdonalger)

Oh my godddd, I never thought I’d say this, but GEORGE R.R. MARTIN, WE ARE BROS. I always LOL so much in movies when main characters don’t wear helmets because the camera has to catch their face. As I recall, in The Avengers there was this scene where Hawkeye infiltrates (somewhere? the helicarrier?) with a bunch of backup soldiers. Everyone else is wearing full riot gear and body armour, but Hawkeye, because he’s the main character, is wearing a sleeveless vest and no helmet.
