Reddit News: Monsters University, Game of Thrones, The Oscars, and More! Dan Koelsch, February 21, 2013February 21, 2013 Like many people, I lurk around Reddit during my downtime, and I find some pretty interesting stuff. Sometimes that stuff relates to movies and television, so I feel obligated to share it with our readers. After the break, check out what’s been making the rounds on Reddit recently.

Also, some character posters were released this week for the film. [Creddit]A guy put together an infographic for all the data you could ever want to know about pornography. It’s impressively thorough. [Creddit]Season 3 of Game of Thrones is still over a month away, but that hasn’t stopped the Game of Thrones subreddit from getting creative. Below are two pieces of fan art featuring Sansa and Jaqen, respectively. There’s also a funny infographic of Sansa’s Dating Woes (beware of book spoilers).
