The writers strike that started after the Origins script was already finished?Remember, a lot of that movie's shitty plot was due to the writer's strike. So, he might not be directly responsible...maybe indirectly responsible. Troy wasn't that great either though.
I think it was more implied that she should civilize the vikings or burn in dragonfire.Dany's ok still. She has dragons. And somehow seems to think that Yara can civilize the vikings by decree just by virtue of not having a weiner. It's cute and couldn't possibly end in tears and a whole lotta dead ass vikings.
Cersei has been driven into the fucking ground though. They shouldn't even kill her. They should just lock her in a tower in casterly rock for her own safety, after they kill her flesh golem guard.
Edit: I didn't know it, but it makes sense why people are calling Arya wolverine now.
Well his lines just plain weren't written, Reynolds had to make up everything himself. I mean I suppose I should put quotes around finished, but the script was 'finished' before the strike began. It was just a half-assed piece of shit.I'll have to dig up where I read that recently. I thought the writer's strike interfered with a lot of Deadpool's lines and scenes in the movie.
While it would be an interesting conflict, it definitely won't happen this season as it'll need a lot of build up. The only followers of R'hllor in Westeros (that we know of) are Thoros, Beric, and the Brothers Without Banners.With the High sparrow, you are dealing with both the political, and the metaphysical.
I wish the current seasons leaned more on the cults warring with each other.
He, and the Faith Militant might find themselves taken out, not by Lannisters, but by Red god cultists.
It's also implied that she pushed her friend Melara Hetherspoon into a well after hearing Maggy the Frog's prophecy. A pre-teen silencing a friend by murdering her... totally not a villain.lol, if we're going to talk about the books...
She convinces Jaime to (attempt to) murder Bran.
She tries to have Arya's hand cut off, and later tries to convince Jaime to maim/kill her.
Littlefinger suggests that she had one of Robert's side-squeezes sold into slavery and her two bastard children killed.
Rumor is that Sir Hugh of the Vale's death at the tourney was orchestrated by Cersei.
Cersei tries to have Robert killed in the melee, and later actually has him killed while hunting.
Instead of owning up to being a twincester, she has Ned imprisoned, which results in his death - all this despite the fact that Ned was actively trying to keep them from being killed by Robert.
She has a whore beaten as leverage against Tyrion.
She tells the Iron Bank to fuck off, which results in who knows how many deaths due to the economic fallout and chaos.
She allows Qyburn to torture and experiment on people.
She thinks one of her maids is working for Margaery and has her tortured/sacrificed for Qyburn's experiments.
She tries to have Bronn murdered for naming his kid Tyrion.
She has one of the people that tried to help her with Bronn's murder tortured/sacrificed for Qyburn's experiments.
She tries to have Margaery framed for adultery and treason, instead of herself.
Villains can have motivations. She's still a villain in this story.
Watch the director's cut of Troy its another Kingdom of Heaven / Daredevil situation where they fucked with it.Remember, a lot of that movie's shitty plot was due to the writer's strike. So, he might not be directly responsible...maybe indirectly responsible. Troy wasn't that great either though.
The first three books are legitimately three of the best fantasy novels ever written. It's not unexpected that the show can't live up to that. I think it was a pretty faithful adaption for a while there though. Peter Jackson's LOTR movies were pretty great, they still don't live up to the depth of the actual books. It's similar here. I have complaints in both examples, but generally am pretty happy with what we ended up getting.As someone who got into the books I've felt the show doesn't meet my expectations. I honestly can't tell if that's because of the blockbusteryness of it (I wholeheartedly concur with Astro, season one is the best cos it wasn't blockbustery and the tone of the showdidchange) or if I'm just being prickly. I've read the massive 50,000 pages and actually took the time to procure the World of Ice and Fire, which means I'm awfully invested in the story. That's time I could've used doing a whole lot of other shit. But I read every single word and regret nothing.
I get riled up sometimes watching the show, but I don't have to remind myself that such a thing would not have existed before the 21st century.
Highlander was awesome in the 80s and even 90s.
Highlander is a piece of shit compared to the worst episode of Game of Thrones.
Battle of the Bastards was good for one thing (fuck the WW2 dragons that were finally awesome): the moment where everything becomes muddy and they're drowning in claustrophobic hands and it looks weird. For a few seconds you have to wonder what you're looking at. That's some artistic shit.
And she twisted baby Tyrions weiner!It's also implied that she pushed her friend Melara Hetherspoon into a well after hearing Maggy the Frog's prophecy. A pre-teen silencing a friend by murdering her... totally not a villain.
The achilles vs hector fight scene in troy is fucking beautiful. Likely one of the best made one on one fight scenes in any movie ever, it was almost good enough to save that pile of trash.Watch the director's cut of Troy its another Kingdom of Heaven / Daredevil situation where they fucked with it.
Now Tyrion has to pay good money for that to happenAnd she twisted baby Tyrions weiner!
Get up. Get up, Prince of Troy! I won't let a stone rob me of my glory!The achilles vs hector fight scene in troy is fucking beautiful. Likely one of the best made one on one fight scenes in any movie ever, it was almost good enough to save that pile of trash.
This goes on in every thread. My theory is that it's just so easy to win these arguments that people can't resist doing it. It's an utter waste of time though, you won't convince the retard and everyone else already knows that he's wrong.Why do people even respond to Astro? It's like getting in to an argument with a fucking retard that "potato" doesn't come after 1 and 2.
