    Yeah just like Pod will never father children as a member of Bran's Kingsguard with all the pussy he will be slaying.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well there is the entire scene with Dany and Jorah after Jorah lets Dany know Sam was the only reason he was cured of Grayscale and Sam basically asks to be pardoned from dipping from the Citadel while "borrowing" some books...also for "borrowing" his family's sword (valyrian steel). This is...

    Well...that's the rub. In the show all we get is "He'll come for me, I remember shit." Blah blah, endless Night with no memories. 20 full seconds of exposition then just sitting there like a mute save for being nice to Theon before he gets killed. Frankly I'd hoped for the 3ER to play a much...

    They could have done a whole lot with a couple minute scene between Dany and Grey Worm that would be far better than the one with Missandei's collar going into the fire. Grey Worm could have expanded on how he felt like an outcast to the people of Westeros (we get a tiny clip of him and...

    "when the story needs it to". I understand where you're trying to go with it Chuk, but yeah after War of 5 Kings, NK's army laying waste to virtually all of Night's Watch and the North save Winterfell leftovers, and Dany murdering a couple hundred thousand combined in the raid from last season...

    With everyone dead I'm pretty sure those rules all went out the window. We say took the black, but didn't look like there was a real Night's Watch left after Winterfell battle/East Watch getting buttfucked by NK breaking through the wall. Bran might not have accepted the title, but to all the...

    I know they totally glossed over it, but Dany burning Sam's father and brother makes him the Lord Tarly. Bran is the last male Stark. Not sure if we ever get word what happens to Brienne's parents, though...but she is a knight of the realm.

    Yeah obviously she would have to allow it instead of just "Dacarys"...but Grey Worm might have wanted that fight, too.

    2019 NFL Offseason: Chargers Started Early

    Not surprising, either for Foster alone, or as a part of the Redskins. Getting an early jump on defending our most injured team title from the last 2 years, and I think they did a study since 2010 where we were tops in man games lost over that period, as well.

    Grey Worm said they had half their strength after fighting at Winterfell, so Unsullied still a few thousand strong. Dothraki I assumed they only had 20-50 left tops after the scene where they all rode out to meet the dead with flaming swords, though. Episode 5 seemed like there were some...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I can fully understand people saying Clarke did her best with what she was given for the turn to madness, I just disagree it was fleshed out anywhere near as well as they could have done it with a few simple scenes (and there was plenty of fluff this season that could have gone to the chopping...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Except for Missandei I guess. Just seemed such a harsh change for him to be executing prisoners even after Jon questions it...but then leaves Tyrion and Jon alive for weeks for everyone to gather and laugh at Sam's idea for democracy while supposedly Tyrion and Jon's lives are hanging in the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Everyone knew she was going to go off, Varys even tells Jon and Tyrion what's coming. It's the why that was rushed, and the actual execution of when (literally right after winning?) that was god awful. Friend of mine just had an interesting idea, if Dany would allow Tyrion a trial by combat...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    And she meant burn women and children and not Cersei/The Mountain who were killing her? I mean there's a massive gap between yelling dracarys while you burn Euron's fleet to the waterline and take out the Red Keep with the Queen in it versus actually winning and having the city forces surrender...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    People didn't miss it at all, also throw in being a little jealous of how liked Jon was with knowing he had a better claim to the throne than she did...they just thought there wasn't nearly enough time to show her losing that control over those things. Also the fact that the moment for her to...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    He knows how to write, or is at least capable of delivering some epic shit...but honestly a lot of the last two books were not nearly as top tier as the first 3. If this was his ending, while I agree with Drin (I think it was Drin?) that he probably outlined very broad strokes for them to go...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Another thing that makes no sense to me in the end, I get there's some links having Brienne in Bran's Kingsguard since she was in Renly's and is probably one of the best fighters left in Westeros...but why the fuck wouldn't she have stayed with Sansa as part of her Queensguad in the North? She...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    A spare force showing up late after Sansa sends a raven isn't nearly as implausible as shit that went down this season. All the big payoff moments were actually there for it, too. Same with Cersei giving the Sparrows and everyone the giant F U blowing up the keep. Compared to Arya LOLing the...

    Just not as obvious as the whole "send a raven" bs from last season yet we still had people complaining about Gendry "running/swimming ~2,000 miles to Dragonstone"

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's not as if that was the only good shit that season. Battle of the Bastards, etc. Point is these were major scenes/episodes and they were still doing them well...beyond the book story. The Long Night and Cersei confrontation were THE big moments in the end game though, and neither were...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I'll never understand the "it's been shit ever since end of Season 5" crowd. Certainly there's been some stuff that was rushed and fell off in quality, but pretending everything since the end of season 5 has been bad is just wrong, too. That shit is solid. I can get some of the complaints...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Brienne scene was pretty good, always felt that scene where Jaime said to Joffrey that "there's still time" would have to be revisited somehow. I thought the convo between Jon and Tyrion about needing to kill Dany was good, but the whole thing was just forced.
  26. Merrith

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Jon being a Targ having no real outcome on anything right up there with Night's Watch being essentially nothing regarding NK, just need Arya to ninja it up. Hell even Melisandre's long fight against the dead/NK/Others was nothing either. Both uses of her fire magic in the battle at Winterfell...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Based on what he said after Long Night, they were down to half their strength, which was 4,000 men. I'm sure they lost a couple more at KL although likely not many. While they are Unsullied, the entirety of Westeros should have more than enough to take care of that shit.

    We can't close the thread until someone asks how everyone teleported to KL's for the meeting to select Bran as King because they didn't pay attention to Tyrion talking about how he's had weeks to think about things as a prisoner...

    100% this. People should have until midnight to pile on this turd then lock the thread and never let it see light of day again. All of the most ridiculous theories these Youtubers and Chuk's weird vids had and in the end...any of them would have been superior to what they actually wrote.

    Its funny when you thinking of it this way...but the super troll ending of Bran on the throne and somehow it was all worse. That "Small Council Meeting" was like a blooper reel made real. Pod in the Kingsguard. I love Pod, but seriously?

    The only rational explanation for all this is they had to show they could fuck something up worse than Last Jedi to get the Star Wars gig.
