    I think that's what made today's game so much worse to watch...both of the 2nd legs in the semis were just unreal, to have this as the followup was disappointing.

    Congrats to Liverpool. Horrible game, though, neither team was anywhere near their best. Tottenham just giving shit away.

    It's a pen, just a shitty shitty way for a pen to get awarded in the first minute of the cl final which has been pretty shitty overall.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Pretty sure at the time when VI was filmed, they knew it was the last film for that "version" of the Star Trek crew, that's why it was such a good joke to throw in there. Maybe I'm off on that, but it seemed a nice put a bow on it moment for that crew. Maybe Arya ends up killing herself...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Freaking out maybe not the best phrase, but people going a little over the top over a one line statement. It's not an arc (unless they're really going to do some Arya the Explorer sequel), it's just the standard "off to new adventures" ending. It's not like Kirk at the end of Star Trek VI was...

    She kind of telegraphs she isn't going to just be hanging around Winterfell or with Gendry when she refuses his marriage proposal. She was going to King's Landing prior to coming home to Winterfell to kill Cersei, but heard the Starks had taken WF back. Of the Starks she's clearly the most...

    Well sure, even stuff that never actually happened. But we're talking needle in a haystack unless I missed the pages of Arya ending complaints versus the major problems people had with Danearys/Jon/Tyrion/Bran shit.

    Didn't even realize people were complaining about Arya's ending. Aside from the ninja lol kill on the NK, was pretty much fine with the rest of Arya's season. It was all the major dumb shit most people had an issue with.

    Not like that, but there was some acknowledgement that she was right that Ramsay would figure out a way to get him "off his game" so to speak, which he did by playing that game with Rickon prior to the battle to get Jon to expose himself and his army.

    I will say that him and Sansa, after Theon helps her escape and Brienne and Pod save them, do have a "making up" set of scenes where Sansa acknowledges she was horrible to him when she was younger and they basically know they need to stick together. After the Battle of the Bastard, Jon and her...

    As I noted above with Szilla, I don't think they even showed Jon's parentage as having any real meaningful impact on getting Dany to snap, either. Not when compared to how they portrayed her reactions to losing Jorah, a 2nd dragon, and Missandei. Desipte getting upset Jon told his "family" the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think the answer to number 1 is no, not in any meaningful way. At least the way they wrote this season. The things Szilla and others are trying to give it credit for I feel other factors actually were the real driving force behind, and I believe its obvious Varys would "betray" or turn away...

    Again we're just going to have to agree to disagree on what sent her into Mad Queen mode then, because Jon didn't stab her because he knew he was a Targ, he stabbed her because he knew she was not what was best for the world anymore. He never wanted the throne anyways, it was never discussed...

    It amounted to virtually nothing, other than the Starks semi plotting against Dany (or at least Sansa)...but all of the Starks already had reason to plot against her b/c neither Dany nor Arya likes her in general, and Bran apparently knows everything so he's not doing anything to work against...

    Shit, if Kempny doesn't get hurt late in the regular season, can pretty much have us in ECF against Boston who Holtby has a slightly better than average record against.

    Apparently Missandei/Jorah/dragon deaths were far more important issues in driving her to "rule by fear" even though she had already won when the Lannister army was surrendering. Only made same faces after Missandei got her head cut off, if she was that mad at Jon for anything, she would have...

    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...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    And she meant burn women and children and not Cersei/The Mountain who were killing her?

    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...
