Solid choices all around

LF's?
regal root
Yeah his accent was criticized for changing multiple times throughout the show, especially early on

Aidan Gillen did a fantasic job as LF, nailed the character

Whoever was talking about that Michael Jackson documentary I'm pretty sure some of its claims got disproven
mighty mist
What claims?
calm sun
some of the claims in the documentary
regal root
Attention/money most like
tribal tundra
Truth is definitely in the middle
I am one of those who refused to believe that mj was a pedo but i tried to watched the documentary from an objective standpoint
Some shit are definitely questionable, others not so much

Documentaries are designed to make an argument right or wrong
I don't know the details though so whatever

This has to be one of the weirdest episodes of GOT so far
Poor Loras Tyrell on trial for being gay
dim hedge
tribal tundra
Yeah iron fist was horrible
I forced myself to watch half the season thinking it was just a slow start
And even the acting was bad from the actor imo, maybe he wasn’t ready for the role cus hes not that bad in got
fluid merlin
I think its just a miscast
Season 2 might be a little bit better
Beat character in the series was his childhood friend, the rich guy

Anyone else extremely hyped for the new tarantino movie?
tribal tundra
Ye seems like the type of movie to take one of them to the oscars
fluid merlin
Really? Tarantinos movies arent usually typical oscar material 😂
tribal tundra
It is when u put brad pitt and leonardo dicaprio
He wouldn’t chose a shit movie
But tbh id argue that they are oscar material
At least some
fluid merlin
Of course they wouldnt pick to be in a shit movie
But not being oscar material doesnt mean its a shit movie
Most of the best movies haven’t won an oscar
The whole oscar thing is too political imo, and most of the winners are movies that has been pushed since the beginning of develooment to win the oscar
But yeah, if any tarantino movie got a shot at winning best film its probably this one
tribal tundra
I agree
fluid merlin
He did win and got nominated a few times for best script/writer and director 
just googled it
sonic quail
Yea its all about persuading and bribing the people on the committee that votes on the movies.

there's a reason the term Oscar-Bait exists

@sonic quail that is funny as fuck
sonic quail
Lol
regal root
I can understand how ||Conleth Hill|| would be pissed about how lackluster of a send off ||Varys|| had but come on, if anything what D&D did was a mercy killing for a character they completely stripped of all personality and relegated to being a generic good guy
dim hedge
|| Vary's death cinematic wise was fucking amazing ||
regal root
Should've gotten to see it then, panning to everyone's reactions instead of actually seeing it was stupid
runic dirge
@regal root so what's the deal with s5
I didn't notice anything really glaringly wrong with it
regal root
Dorne storyline mainly
runic dirge
I didn't think there was any problem with it
were people just mad that she was mistreated?
regal root
Yeah
runic dirge
I understand that but I don't see how that sticks out from the rest of the show
if I liked sansa at all I'd be more sympathetic but she's so boring
regal root
Well it's just at the end of S4 it seemed like she was gonna be sneaky and play the game and then she ups and gets turned right back to punching bag Sansa
runic dirge
💤
runic dirge
what was it again
regal root
You watched all of S5 right?
runic dirge
I don't really remember episode to episode things, it's all a big blur
I finished s5 yes
regal root
For the Watch
runic dirge
ah yes, very good
regal root
They were so tight lipped about it for an entire year, was good marketing on their part to drum up anticipation for S6
Also how did you like Hardhome?
runic dirge
cool I guess
regal root
Man you are difficult to impress
regal root
calm sun
Are there any live action tv shows that do
calm sun
I remember not liking that one
regal root
Twas a very good fight, also didn't happen at all in the books but a good fight none the less
regal root
Yeah Faceless Men are pretty interesting
calm sun
I didn't like that either
regal root
Yup, very gray world filled with mostly gray characters
runic dirge
people doing people stuff
calm sun
Brienne is the good guy
runic dirge
might as well start s6 before I go to bed
calm sun
or girl
runic dirge
I've got a couple hours
regal root
Tell me when you're down with S6, I got a tribute video to a GoT character that I'd be interested in getting your opinion on
runic dirge
will do
regal root
Brienne is indeed a whamen Payz
calm sun
prove it
magic bloom
calm sun
There are a lot of good got youtubers
Though they just read fan theories or passages from the extra books
I find them engaging
Also one thing I don't get
I see lots of the show watchers discussing Roberts rebellion like they know about it in detail
But if I'm not mistaken that was barely ever discussed in the show
Where did they learn about it
I love the Roberts rebellion backstory and I'm bummed it won't be made into a prequel. It's structured almost like an action movie.
regal root
They learned about it from the books or the short video summary that was made back for Season 1
Also I agree, despite the fact we know all the juicy details about it I would love to see a RR movie, especially just to see Robert vs Rhaegar at the Trident
mighty mist
Did you hear about this new show that sort of feels like Ghost Whisper?
scenic terrace
Currently in the middle of the first Orange is the New Black Episode
please tell me this woman doesnt leave her fiance for a woman in prison. I swear to god if this woman leaves him I'm gonna drop this show
scenic terrace
I mean, i dont know but that's like a stereotypical storyline I expect to happen
scenic terrace
A man proposed to her knowing she'd going to jail for 15 months, and she's going to jail because she was the lesbian partner of a leader of a drug ring
sonic quail
Adam lmao
What do u think
But the mc is like the least liked person and defo not even the best part
Its the other chicks
scenic terrace
Dont do this to Larry 
sonic quail
Were u rooting for larry?
||cuz him leaving her is a good thing i mean she sucks dude||
scenic terrace
i mean who knows, maybe larry cheats on her later
but for right now
larry is the boy
ive recognized 2 actors so far from SVU
runic dirge
he's probably going to end up being one of my favorite characters by the end
which I wouldn't have expected
vapid marlin
disgusting
runic dirge
literally die
vapid marlin
no
you
game of thrones is for only the most denegerate of denegerates
filth of filths
runic dirge

runic dirge
I wonder who my favorite character is at this point honestly
I couldn't say
I'd have to have them all in a line up or something
scenic terrace
what season are you on
calm sun
drop it
vapid marlin
buffoon of buffoons
regal root
Yeah that was a fantastic episode
runic dirge
probably yes
regal root
Jaime is honestly one of the better gray characters of our time
runic dirge
Jaime was probably my favorite from the books
regal root
I thought you didn't read the books?
scenic terrace
My favorite was probably Tyrion pre-fleeing Kings Landing
and then it switched to Jaime
runic dirge
I remember Theon's story being more intense in the books
maybe just cos I was younger
and it was more descriptive/shocking
regal root
You're right, it is more intense in the books
calm sun
I find the violence more intense in the show
Maybe because I'm seeing it
Also the sound effects
runic dirge
the show is very tame
regal root
Dude has broken teeth and more missing fingers/toes, also he's been so terrified from his torture that his hair turned white
He is literally in pain every moment
regal root
Ice and Fire manga would be lit as hell
regal root
Well yeah cause they went tame as shit
runic dirge
gross
regal root
Understandable because you can't put Jon or Dany's sex scenes in, they're like 14 and 13 at the beginning
mighty mist
Ew.
regal root
But there is no excuse for leaving out torture scenes (as grotesque as they are)
runic dirge
I agree
regal root
Cause Theon is like 19, so you have no excuse for not putting them in other than you being a pussy
runic dirge
for all the hype surrounding it GOT is far more very chill and tame compared to what I had imagined
regal root
I mean it's graphic but it's nowhere near as graphic as it could be
runic dirge
the most out there thing might be oberyn's death
runic dirge
it was good
calm sun
What about the red wedding
runic dirge
regal root
Just blind slaughter, nothing new
calm sun
Stabbing a pregnant woman in the stomach
regal root
That didn't happen in the books btw, that girl doesn't even exist
runic dirge
but I did like how casually they killed catelyn at the end
hm
I liked arya killing Ser Meryn 
👍
regal root
Interesting fun fact, the woman who played Talisa is Charlie Chaplin's granddaughter
Also yeah Trant's death was well deserved and brutal, not sure about making him a pedo, he was already enough of a dick for killing Syrio and beating Sansa
runic dirge
cool guy, kind of annoying
I am biased against dorne unfortunately
one of the girls reminds me of someone I hate from another movie
oh right Pirates of the Caribbean
regal root
Dorne died for me with Oberyn, Sand Snakes and Ellaria were annoying as shit in Season 5

stabs buc in back of head with spear to dab on patriarchy

Ugh
runic dirge
bruh moment
all of GOT is just a series of one bruh moment after another
the memes have ruined my mind and binging the show has made its formula abhorrent to me
so listening to conversations where it's nothing but smart people intellectually dabbing on each other predictably is
regal root
I miss the dialogue from Seasons 1-4, at least back then peeps had personality
runic dirge
"I can offer you three new gimmicks to make your show more interesting by the end of this season"
"You'll give me four by the end of next episode or I will have your entire family's heads mounted on a spike"
bruh moment
regal root
Did you notice the drop off with Tyrion where he went from clever little shit to "Lul, you don't have a cock"?
runic dirge
I might have missed it
tyrion's hard for me to like because I know he's such a loved character and I'm a filthy hipster deep down somewhere
similar situation with Jon
he's good, tho
I just can't always escape memes
I liked his conversation with the dragons
regal root
Did you enjoy seeing Olly die as much as the rest of the fanbase did?
runic dirge
was he a hated character?
regal root
I'd say more so annoying than hated but yeah
sonic quail
Same
runic dirge
he saved Jon from ygritte and worked the elevator
regal root
He also doesn't exist in the books
runic dirge
not like Jon would have lived if he hadn't stabbed him that last time
I think
he mostly slips below my radar
angry child
does the got fandom generally have good memes or bad memes
runic dirge
I've never been a big fan of her and after what I've heard from s8
I wish she would go away
or at least join everyone else on the same continent
regal root
In regards to her in S8 it was just a massive twist that was not given anywhere near the necessary amount of build up.
regal root
Hence why it's gotten blow back from the vast majority of the fan base, and obviously the actress herself is disappointed as well because of it leaving a bad taste in fans mouths
mighty mist
Damn. 😦
regal root
Hence why D&D will now forever be known as Dumb & Dumber
runic dirge
getting the news that your character is getting killed off must be one of the weirdest feelings out there
regal root
Because they were given the option to have a proper amount of episodes to flesh out a proper story line and said "Nah fam, we good"
regal root
Dudes clearly wanted to get GoT done with to jump to Disney and do Star Wars shit, as if that franchise hasn't suffered enough already
runic dirge
very sad day for got fans
regal root
Very sad indeed
runic dirge
sad days for me coming up I suppose
regal root
I don't think you'll be bothered as much, not to make any assumptions but you don;t seem overly impressed with the show to this point but with how critical you tend to be when reviewing things I imagine once you're done you'll tear into them properly
runic dirge
I don't know really
big show, lots of people and politics, lots of which can easily go over my head
I'm no Mauler

Damn, what a good thriller horror movie. Jordan Peele didn't disappoint in his follow up
tribal tundra
That evil superman movie is good? A lot of mixed reviews
warped drift
i havent watched it . but i doubt it will be good
i mean they gave us everything in the trailer
which wasnt all that interesting , at least to me
thats coming from someone who watches horror at breakfast
tribal tundra
Yeah it did feel like the typical repetitive hollywood techniques to “scare” the audience with jumpscares and shit instead of an actual intriguing plotline
The concept was interesting tho and thought it had potential
IT 2 trailer on the other hand was the opposite, pretty creative scene for a horror movie from what weve seen
warped drift
ya i liked the concept as well
mighty mist
Anyone seen The Inbetween? I feel like it's similar to The Ghost Whisper.

@tribal tundra im rewatching kill bill movies because of our tarantino talk yesterday 😂

whats up with the theories about venom appearing in spider man far from home , did they leak something or what
mint kiln
There are rumors about Sony wanting that iirc
And not Far from Home
The 3rd Spiderman movie
regal root
Was about to say, I don't think Marvel has the rights to Venom yet, as well as X-Men and the F4
Or at least not the film rights
fluid merlin
They have the x-men and f4 already
Venom is with sony, and they would need to reach an agreement similar with spiderman to use him, which seems unlikely considering the high box office of the venom movie
Ah
Yeah
Although xmen already got tons of movies, i think marvel would still make it even better
Good
regal root
I don't have any ill will towards Sophie Turner but I just don't find her to be a good actress, terrible Jean Gray imo
regal root
You know who would've been a perfect Gambit back in the day? Brad Pitt
regal root
I thought he creole accent was pretty convincing in Meet Joe Black, add that on top of his looks and he would've been a great Gambit back in the day
fluid merlin
And not the rock or any other actor who has more of a celebrity status
warped drift
ya just the trailer , honestly not a fan
man we need a world buster hulk movie
need a teaser(thor ragnorak)
mighty mist
@regal root I thought Keanu Reeves would've been a great Gambit.
regal root
Hmm, not sure how I feel about that
mighty mist
That's okay.
Also, why couldn't they get someone else to play Jean instead of Sophie Turner?
calm sun
Why should they
mighty mist
Isn't there anyone who can play Jean Grey better?
calm sun
It's more about popularity
mighty mist
Oh. 😐
runic dirge
so aside from how horribly Hodor's death was botched in the show
how exactly does his whole situation work?
calm sun
What was bad about it
runic dirge
not powerful enough
the way it cut to credits was really shit
it could have been a really great scene but they just left it hanging
so was Hodor's mind broken in the past because of what he did in the future?
warped drift
yes its a loop
warped drift
not stated
runic dirge
he couldn't have done what he did in the present without everything that happened in his past to get there
kind of fucky
but it makes for a cool-ish scene
warped drift
thats like the coolest scene in the series , at least according to the fans
so dont expect any better
regal root
I believe the loop was started by Bran unintentionally connecting with Hodor in the past to connect with him in the future
I thought it was a good, sad death for one of the few innocent characters in the show
Also the only piece of the Winds of Winter we have outright confirmation for from GRRM himself via D&D, or at least they said in the post episode recap that George told them Hodor stood for Hold the Door, which to me sounds like an 100% lock that some variation of what happened to Bran in Season 6 will happen to him in Winds and that Hodor will die protecting him
regal root
So you know those reaction channels on YT? There is this bar in Chicago that aired GoT every week and for the 2nd to last episode they actually got the guy who played young Hodor to fly out and watch it with them
runic dirge
noted
regal root
I finished GoT a while ago, is that ass slapping an open invitation? 
true yew
@runic dirge oh yeah you'll ofc tell me how you liked it later, but only after you finished it.
runic dirge
I like it well enough now
regal root
Jaime's turn from generic bad guy into memorable gray character was really well done imo
dim hedge
yeah almost made forget about what he has done
crimson lance
Jaimes actor really makes me forhrt he isnt jaime
regal root
Trying to kill a kid who caught you and your sis doing the dew, attacking a group of men who had nothing to do with your brother getting captured because you were pissed which result in all but one of them dying with the survivor being partially crippled, breaking a sacred vow to protect your king by murdering him, and at least in the show killing your cousin vs saving 1 million people from getting burned alive because of said king's plan of taking out the entire city as he went down, saving a woman from getting raped (which resulted in him getting maimed) and later saving her again from getting eaten by a bear, and providing said woman with armor, a weapon, and a squire in order for her to fulfill a vow to find and protect the children of a former enemy.
He's a hell of a character
crimson lance
Spoilr tags man roro and some others might see that
regal root
Roro is in S6, he knows all this
crimson lance
Oh i thought he was on s3
regal root
He's speeding through it
crimson lance
Man i started rewatching it and then i got my laptop taken away so now i feel lost
regal root
I'm paraphrasing a bit here but he said something on the lines that he thought GoT had poor choreography 😔
crimson lance
Pretty false
Especially with jon jaime briene
They get good fights and show off great skills
regal root
He did say he liked Brienne vs the Hound the most
crimson lance
As the most thats fair
regal root
So his taste isn't that bad, just has no problem giving them spicy hot takes
crimson lance
The hound while cool is just a big man his fights are too technique based
tribal tundra
Battle of bastards was dope af
Especially the suffocation scene, it felt like you were participating in the war
crimson lance
Im glad brienne isnt just femalw hound but an actual master swordfighter
tribal tundra
Good sense of realism
runic dirge
spicy hot memes are the only thing I have left in this world
and if we could avoid he/him please
I got memed hard with the Hound
he wasn't brought back from the dead like I thought I'd heard, he just didn't die
must have gotten him mixed up with the Mountain
regal root
He was never confirmed dead in the books, there is an active fan theory that he is ||the grave digger Brienne saw in A Feast for Crows|| but you know how reliable those are
Also allegedly the Mountain is dead in the books but that seems to be a cover up for him being ||Ser Robert Strong||
regal root
Good? Bad?
Cause I quite enjoyed the weird relationship Jaime and Brienne had formed for most of the series
regal root
She was the biggest part (imo) of making Jaime likeable in the first place, feel like she's a great foil for him
neon coral
Biggest part

Okay the only part, but still

regal root
You'd be surprised

ali g another legend

what the fuck did I just watch
this entire episode is legendary
blows the rest of the show completely out of the water
the long cut in the beginning of the battle with everything raging around Jon
the huddle
Jon destroying Ramsay
Ramsay in his cell
I didn't want to blink through the last few segments
runic dirge
I'd recommend the entire show for this episode alone
dim hedge
Season 6 was an amazing season especially with it being the 1st season to not have book material to fall onto

@dim hedge @regal root

S6E9 was amazing for both battle and story telling, S6E10 was amazing story telling

Simply amazing
Also that shot at the beginning when he was standing down the stampede was legit
runic dirge
and then everything falls apart
dim hedge
the guy who directed battle of the bastards also directed long night and bells right
runic dirge
I'm going to be thinking about this episode for a while
dim hedge
oh hardhome was great
runic dirge
and I really can't imagine anything topping this now
fucking Ramsay
officially one of my favorite characters in the show
regal root
It was a masterclass in cinema, from the acting to the directing to the choreography to the music. Battle of the Bastards is a legitimate 10/10
regal root
7 and 8 had great moments, but yeah it all goes down hill after the end of S6
dim hedge
I was kidding, he has to watch season 7 and 8 now
runic dirge
this episode is everything I expected GOT to be and more

I loved Ramin's work for the entire series, he is a genius

I really didn't like the ||NK's|| theme that much tbh, just expected something more sinister sounding
dim hedge
a shame that this was one of the only good things about the ending ||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HppOkD89ntQ|| 😭
I mean the theme was used to kind of give the same vibe that light of the seven did in s6ep10, || slow down chaos ||
regal root
It had it's moments but it's far from one of my fav Ramin pieces
Light knocked it out of the water easily
dim hedge
the sinister sounding track you were looking for || https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOO6wJy1Ivo ||
pretty sure they used this || when the wights were approaching the trenches as the unsullied were being pushed back ||
oh and of course literally the only good thing about the || jamie and cersei death scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_0CwPFm0-M ||
regal root
Yeah that piece is great
||Pete||'s acting during it was fantastic (despite the fact he didn't actually tear up)
dim hedge
the acting overall was amazing, so was the cinematic shots and music. || it was just the awful writing 😭 ||
regal root
Indeed
Give this a listen when you have a chance (if you haven't already), Ramin did it as a tribute to ||Dany|| ||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K318JWc85Dk||

oh shit haven't heard this

It wasn't in the show, he just did it for fun

oh god this was would have been so fitting if || dany won the game of thrones ||

oh check this out if you haven't heard it, I remember listening to a fan version a while back || https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlkgbwmN9mQ ||
but this version was far better obviously
regal root
That was the one that played at the end of the episode right?
dim hedge
I don't think they played this
in the season
It was played at Joffery's wedding
iirc
regal root
The song was but not this version, that version was played by Sigur Ros
dim hedge
yeah

Who actually played it during episode and during the credits
dim hedge
numerous characters sang it throughout the show
the instrumental was mixed in with the Lannister theme during || Jamie and Cersei's death ||

Those are by consensus the 2 best episodes in all of GoT, at least as far as I can remember they're the only full 10/10 episodes in the series

That hasn't happened in the books by that is just in GRRM's wheelhouse to have Cersei use the forgotten caches of whitefire left behind by the Mad King to wipe out the Faith Militant and Margaery in 1 fell swoop

So going out with Cersei killing them all instead of Dany finally heading to Westeros with her forces? Interesting call
runic dirge
maybe end with Tommen's suicide
have the aftermath of that start off the next season
and just drop out to credits
have cersei's coronation kickstart s7
regal root
"This is Ser Gregor, he's quiet too" Cersei is a bad bitch
runic dirge
chilling
and in all this I never got around to how fun Gregor was this season
big cutie

How did you like the reveal of Jon's parentage?
runic dirge
well, I knew who he is going in
not that they've said it yet
so some of the magic was lost on me but it still caught me by surprise
regal root
How did you like Kingindanorf 2.0?
runic dirge
serviceable
regal root
Lyanna Mormont won over a lot of fans with her ripping into the various lords of the North
runic dirge
grumpy Jon, annoying child, and lots of old men I don't know the names or faces or houses of
bit of a bruh moment, if I may be so daring
and yet another season ending with a Dany scene
which always leaves a sour taste in my mouth
Trial perfect, e10 big snoozefest
and BoB 10/10
regal root
Least that one was actually good, fucking full court press with her combined forces and 3 full grown dragons
runic dirge
I can't take her seriously when she's standing at attention that far away from land
regal root
Did you like Tyrion being named her Hand?
runic dirge
I really liked that
I thought he was going to cry for just a second and I was really excited
regal root
He was a really proud boi
runic dirge
it's really cool to see how far Tyrion has come away from it all and how much his worldview has shifted
unfortunately I've heard he becomes a useless stupid cunt in the last two seasons
regal root
Sadly

sonic quail
Its your fault roro
runic dirge
nah
sonic quail
Im blaming u
regal root
D&D just had no clue how to write him after that, I saw the fall beginning in S5 and continuing in S6, then it came to roost in S7
runic dirge
I think I'll probably just watch Jon beat the universe out of Ramsay again when I finish s8
regal root
Good idea, it's very satisfying
runic dirge
Tyrion had a lot of 
scenes in s6
regal root
Quite
runic dirge
Tell me a joke
s6 tyrion
let's play a game!
whoever can name a good tryion s6 scene wins
big meme small man
regal root
Being named Hand
runic dirge
I know, is meme
regal root
Ah
regal root
But can you see the difference a bit more in his character from S1-S4 in comparison to S5-S6 now?
In terms of quality
regal root
Exactly
runic dirge
that was window dressing to his brain and wit
just tell me right now, does Jorah have a satisfying end to his story
regal root
It's in S8
regal root
He does has a decently gross scene coming in S7
Though considering how gruesome parts of the show has been to that point I doubt it will effect you much
sonic quail
I love that scene
regal root
That transition into the next scene was fucked up
regal root
sonic quail
So nasty

I wouldn't be shocked, he said he went into a pretty bad place after Jon's death in S5
Cause I don't think they told him he was coming back yet
And they have videos of his reaction to the scripts for the final season and you can see his reaction to the ending, it's not good
I mean you even had certain members dropping bread crumbs to make their displeasure about the ending known
Kit included
regal root
You don't got to worry about that now, you'll be able to judge it properly when you finish the series in presumably the next 3-4 days

Battle of the bastards is the shit

Ramsay’s || death scene || was oddly satisfying

Of course, he deserved it after doing the worst crime a man could possibly do

You have Pod in 2nd to last tier? No magic cock for you young man 😠

When you say Ramsay, I can't help thinking of Gordon Ramsey.

If he had at least ||sent out ravens to all the major lords of jon being aegon before dying, it would be slightly better||
runic dirge
runic dirge
oh fuck
no no no no
please do not cut from Jorah's treatment to digging into a goopy pie
bad
runic dirge
if I listen to dany speak even one more sentence I really will do something terrible
crimson lance
what season
runic dirge
for fuck's sake shut up and stop bullying all the likeable characters
7
she's meeting with Jon now
crimson lance
I dont remember dany being bad in s7
runic dirge
entitled idiot baby sometimes naked bitch
who spent six seasons doing absolutely nothing
crimson lance
she built an army over 6 seasons
runic dirge
in boring horse places and sandy places
an army full of boring people
with the exception of Jorah and Barristan
crimson lance
I mean you're partly right
jorah and barristan are great, Tryion was great but isnt very good when he works for dany
man i wish we got to see barristan do a good fight
they killed him off :(
runic dirge
haha someone made me angry so I'll burn them and take off my clothes
enough shut up and please die soon
runic dirge
and now literal fucking idiot s7 Tyrion is harassing Jon to bend the knee to said angry child

Welcome to GoT's final seasons
runic dirge
bruh moment
warped drift
but the memes gets better as we go into the final season
runic dirge
imagine playing in a sandbox for over sixty episodes so you can make snide remarks at a guy who went and actually died and only wants to save the entire world
crimson lance
her goal is to save the world too but she thinks the big evil is slavery and corrupt leaders
not zombies
runic dirge
she wants the chair because her daddy sat in it
crimson lance
have you paid attention
her goal throughout the series has been to free westeros and everything else
neon coral
Tyrants always say that shit
crimson lance
slaves no but they're ruled over by the king who causes constant wars and other issues
which she beleives she can cause
runic dirge
she also botched the whole thing and only made it work with constant help of Westeros people
and now she wants to step into the country and rule the whole damn thing
which she deserves zero of
I sleep
finger in the bruh moment
crimson lance
runic dirge
at least Cersei is still perfect and flawless
crimson lance
eh
I prefered her more in early seasons when you didnt know what she was doing
now everything is out in the open and she just does a bunch of shit
true yew
@runic dirge feels like you don't like Danny
true yew
yup.
runic dirge
more of a Poop Soup kinda funky
true yew
it's the generic "oh she's successful because she's for the people" chararcter
runic dirge
with a generous helping of stronk whamen
true yew
and then she also just gets literal nukes, making the rest irrelevant anyway.
warped drift
sad thing she is actually a fan favorite
runic dirge
I've heard that martin considers the dragons analogous to nukes before
true yew
yeah
runic dirge
I should read about that somewhere
true yew
flat out said that.
after watching some of ||S8 || again I think there's nothing better than he ||getting utterly destroyed by the story|| lol
that and soccer moms naming their daughters after her.
runic dirge
I heard about that in the BGE video, ye
which is a yikes most ponderous after what she did in the end
true yew
bge?
true yew
didn't he cry about haki again in a super misinformed video?
runic dirge
regurgitated po d cast rant
true yew
dude should bulk up on his lore.
runic dirge
miamafv2 is a big and bad meme but that's a conversation for a different channel
true yew
well I don't even know where we'd hold that since he's western
anyway yeah
the naming thing is hilarious
tribal tundra
You must be a retarded parent to name ur daughter after her hahhahahaha
runic dirge
apparently Jon and Dany become an item
I can't imagine how that's possible
also
who decided to shaft littlefinger
I'm going to be angry
crimson lance
I never liked little finger
I mean i like the whole plotting and shit
thats great
but him as a person is lame
he was always trying to get sansa onto the path where they would end up together
regal root
You mean you liked him when they were still using book material and hate him after they stripped him of all personality and intellect once they ran out?
It's almost as if D&D are hacks...oh but that certainly can't be true
crimson lance
they're not complete shit
they gave up on Got so they could go suck disneys dick to work on starwars
regal root
Which makes them complete shit
runic dirge
clearly
crimson lance
bad people with some talent
calm sun
They should have made George head writer and had him write an alternate ending for the last few seasons
crimson lance
he's already too busy to write his own books
why would he write everything for the show
neon coral
then S7-8 would've been delayed indefinitely
calm sun
He wrote a lot for the show actually
neon coral
books are probably gonna have the same ending but a different journey to that ending
calm sun
But he stopped working with them when they caught up
Rumor has it they stopped listening to him
calm sun
There was no way they could do the book ending justice in 8 seasons
crimson lance
like i cant imagine ||Bran would ever be king in GRRM's verision, unless its because of 3ER shit||
neon coral
thats one theory I saw
for the books
When Jon died, Bran took over his body. Jons spirit went into Ghost. So ||Bran becomes king|| was something GRRM Told them but in reality, ||he becomes King through Jon||.
crimson lance
thats not a great theory
warped drift
doubtful
calm sun
||bran becoming king seems like something George would do||
neon coral
well, thats not the theory. the actual theory has a lot more depth to it
calm sun
||he'd be a play on the god emperor theory of an ideal ruler||
crimson lance
it does seem possible
but ||There would have to be alot more 3ER devolpment imo, bran from the shows no way lol||
||Unless Bran does more affecting the past and the present he has no reason to be king||
neon coral
the show screwed itself because of its limitations and they clearly wanted to avoid magic stuff
crimson lance
they wanted to avoid story lines
neon coral
||Euron could've been such an amazing character||
crimson lance
they wanted to make everything simple and able to be taken at face value
regal root
Except that ||Bran|| is 10 years old in the books, I don't see George ||making a literal child king||.
neon coral
but he's more than that because of the 3 eyed raven thing. He could live through others, so that 10 year old child, could have decades of experience at his disposal.
regal root
||Euron|| is significantly better in the books, why they thought it was a good idea to try and fuse him with his brother ||Victarion|| I'll never understand
calm sun
Bran will be older by the end
regal root
He turned into an ||unfeeling robot person|| in the shows, there is no indication he'll become that way once his training with ||the Three Eyed Crow|| is finished
crimson lance
They fucked up euron
The actor for euron was so excited to be on the show cause he is a huge fan of the books
but then he found out who his character was
regal root
The year barely turned into AC 300 in the books, so at worst if George goes down the route the show did ||he'd be all of 11||
As cliched as it would be ||I want to see Jon on the throne|| in the end, I highly doubty George will do that but still
scenic terrace
Gendry for the throne
crimson lance
that will never happen
got has shown us many times that heirs to the thrones arent good for the kingdom
regal root
You don't just decide that someone who is as honorable, even keeled, and strong as ||Jon|| wouldn't be the perfect choice to lead your nation.
warped drift
ppl think that bran took control of hodor , but the truth hodor took control of bran, ||the one sitting on the throne is hodor||
crimson lance
spoiler tags arent up to s8
regal root
And yeah I can see George making the Throne and the pursuit of it as some big metaphor for the faults of inherited power but after all the work that has gone into ||Jon|| to the point to not make ||him king|| kinda feels like salt in the wound
scenic terrace
i mean, i dont think that would be salt in the wound for me
crimson lance
I dont think ||Jon will be the king i think he can still be the hero who does alot of good shit but not the king, also if fucking jon 1v1's the night king in the books, GRMM Is a hack, no one can 1v1 nightking he has literal super strength and magic powers||
scenic terrace
salt in the wound is ||Jon not fighting the night king||
regal root
^
scenic terrace
it's like ||Luffy not finding One Piece||
crimson lance
jon fighting the night king makes sense
him defeating him doesnt
NIght king has magic powers and super strenght no man can 1v1 him
regal root
You don't know that, Jon killed ||multiple WWs|| in the show, who is to say the NK is this uber strong warrior who is leagues better than his underlings?
crimson lance
Logic is
regal root
Besides the fact there is no NK in the books so it's a moot point
crimson lance
wait fr
regal root
Yeah
crimson lance
like not fully introduced or not at all
regal root
Not at all
There was a character in a story Bran once told who was called the Night's King but it's separate
George has honestly barely touched the Others (that's what they're called in the books) or the Wights
crimson lance
damn
neon coral
I wonder if the show will affect his books in any way
crimson lance
now i could actually see jon defeating the undead if theres no super leader
He doesnt read fan theories, so he wont be influecned by them, so i assume he does something similar with the show
it would be best for his writing
regal root
The extent of it being the opening scene from season 1 where the Night's Watch brothers found the dead Wildlings and then 2 of them got killed by 1, the scene where Jon saved LC Mormont by throwing a torch at the one Wight they brought in, Jon seeing an Other take Craster's child, the battle at the Fist of the First Men (which was offscreened in the show), Sam killing an Other with a Dragonglass dagger, some opening prologue from Dance I believe where a Wildling got killed by Wights, and a letter Jon got from Cottor Pyke when he went up to Hardhome asking for reinforcements cause there were Wights there
"Dead things in the trees, dead things in the water" I believe was the phrased used
warped drift
the guy who escaped was left with the only choice to go back just to get executed
regal root
Indeed
crimson lance
bran was kinda interesting when he was traveling to the 3eR
runic dirge
now he's just
regal root
A computer
runic dirge
how did you know that!!!! Wow!!!
crimson lance
also he had two hot ass chicks traveling with him, 2 wolves and a giant but couldnt do shit
runic dirge
he's just a walking, erm, rolling bruh moment
regal root
Chill dude, Meera was like 15-16 when they left together

crimson lance
but otherwise i was just hyping up his traveling party
runic dirge
I forget the other girl's name
crimson lance
a wildling lady who was trying to escape the north to go south, but her group attacked bran and they got killed except for hero
runic dirge
good facial expressions
crimson lance
man i wish hodor was still around
regal root
You know the show changed Theon's sister's name because it was too similar to Osha's?
In the books I mean
crimson lance
yeah i found out a couple days ago
regal root
Her real name is Asha
crimson lance
Hodor could of been a mecha fighter for bran
He could of used Hodor to kill the night king
I wonder if peak performance hodor could Beat the mountain
They're both giants
runic dirge
Warg into Jaime, and then into the Mountain, and then into Hodor
runic dirge
triple powerup!!!
regal root
You know the Mountain in the books is about 8 ft and 420 pounds of pure, rapey muscle?
crimson lance
yeah and he would be in the show too, but a 8ft tall guy wasnt around to do the job
crimson lance
whom? Mountain?
crimson lance
Sandor (the hound) Has been trying to get revenge on the mountain for the whole show
regal root
They got a dude who was about 7 ft and a pro weightlifter to do it, not bad
crimson lance
but he doesnt go after him mtoo often
runic dirge
oh Gregor is the Mountain
regal root
Yup
crimson lance
Yeah
runic dirge
I thought it was the other way around
regal root
Nah

Credit where credit is due, George has a good knack for choosing nicknames
