  1. *whispers it also wasn’t the ending, there’s one more episode Im glad Cleganebowl lived up to the hype. That was so epic.
  2. What is there not to buy? In one instance a LESSER dragon was ambushed. Didn’t even see the bolts coming. Then literally minutes later you see the superior remaining dragon literally dodge an entire wave of bolts. So where exactly is the inconsistency that the same dragon was adept at dodging the bolts one episode later? Also was anyone else on the edge of their seat when Jamie met Cersai? I kept waiting for him to smirk and Arya to pull his face off and stab her. In hindsight I realize there’s no way they would have given Jamie an off screen death but i was all in on that being Arya in the moment lol. I loved Jamie and Cersais end to their arcs. They talked about how strong their love was all show long. This just reinforced it. And as awful as Cersai was, she did have several moments throughout the show where you sympathized for her. I found it fitting that they sort of were able to end on one. It’s adds a lot to her character and gives thought to her motivations throughout the show. And yeah it’s not the death I think we were all hoping for. But to die with Jamie, buried by the Red Keep, it’s so poetic that I instantly got over her not getting a savage death. We’ve had plenty of those over the years anyway.
  3. I’m sure there will be a support group where you guys can all share your head cannon opinions of how it was supposed to go.
  4. Ehhh you’re not wrong. I can certainly list off a whole bunch of stuff that foreshadowed it. I dunno it just felt a little off to me. Maybe not seeing her really lose control before? I know she’s gotten angry but it always felt sort of justified? I didn’t think she’d reached the point where she’d turn on innocents like that.
  5. You seem upset. I recommend maybe watching a fun high quality horror flick to help take your mind off things. Maybe Halloween?
  6. My one and only single issue with that episode was that Danys descent into that level of madness was way way way to quick. Was it foreshadowed and even expected? Yeah of course. But they didn’t pull it off. She needed a few more “pulling the wings off a fly” moments. That being said the rest of that episode was phenomenal. The acting, the cinematography, Jesus the music! They gave us some of what we wanted and some of what we didn’t. I was fine with every death and every turn.
  7. Yes, its not like the board is such a hot bed of activity that a few extra threads will bury others.
  8. Just finished the story mode. That was legit the best thing ever lol. It’s so over the top but so perfect. Only thing missing was the MK song lol.
  9. Yeah he’s always down for dumb stuff. Remember he did that bit for Jackass where he was in the bear costume.
  10. Ehhh as a massive fan of the book and someone who even really enjoyed the movie...that didn’t convince me I should care about this.
  11. People really care that much about Ghost? Is that a book reader thing? I honestly can’t really remember him playing that big a role. I feel like maybe he saved Jon once?
  12. cheating isn’t typically as black and white as people would like to make it out to be.
  13. I think they had it after Season 1. But season 2 I feel like the amount of discussion and social media hype dropped through the floor. What was their tentpole before GoT? Sopranos right? There was 4 years in between.
  14. LOL omg so you did in fact want an actual physical representation of 50% shown retreating/held in reserve? And that, in your opinion would have been good writing? LOL holy shit dude. OMG you're the best.
  15. Lol the desperate plea of "look what else we have! it's all good too, please don't go!"
  16. Plus they showed a lot of them retreating after the initial charge so...... So they showed a fair number of them surviving, then later had a commander go over the number of losses. But that's lazy writing that makes things conveniently work out? What exactly did you want them to do? Have a head count of the returning warriors and then stop when they got to exactly half? I mean the show isn't without faults, criticize away but you doubling down on your critiques that are based solely on simply missing the point in the show where it was addressed is hilarious.
  17. Except its not lazy writing. They not only showed them surviving but they mentioned it as well. It's not lazy writing it's lazy watching on your part LOL
  18. Except it didn't. Jesus did someone just kind of give you a shitty cliff notes of what happened? Or are you basing all of this on watching just the "coming next week" portions of each episode.
