Also L O S T theories back then were way more interesting than the actual ending.

I'm probably one of the few that liked the last season of lost and I concur.

I liked the last season BECAUSE i stopped watching that crap halfway through the first season. It was immediately apparent once the smoke monster showed up that there was no greater storyline, the writers were making a Pollock painting and allowing the audience to connect dots. Since I wasn't invested at ALL in the story, I could watch the last season like episodes of the twilight zone. They were actually pretty good if you watched them that way.

But even watching it that way, the final 2 episodes were pretty meh. Completely flat. Oh, everyone's in heaven and we're going to talk about how love is the answer now? Ok.

I liked the last season of LOST because there prop dept was behind and they paid me retarded money to work over time last minute to make them set pieces. Also Evangeline Lilly bought a house 4 blocks away from me and I used to see her watering her lawn.

If you worked on that episode that had the portugese guy on the slaveship I have to commend you. That was a nice episode and it looked nice.

Yes, I suppose a person could imagine any number of wild theories that is not based on anything other than their monkey brain trying to make patterns out of things that aren't there. So Bran (and everyone warging for that matter) has been shown to have control over their host but in this theory he doesn't, except for when he is at Hardhome and lets Jon go? Also the bit about "but you will fly" could have easily (and more likely) been a reference into using the ravens. Which he has like damn near every episode since then.

LOL, you mad bro?

I just linked the 1st of many different theories out there.

You asked a stupid question, get a stupid answer.


There certainly doesn't NEED to be another NK, I really don't care if there is tbh.
Though I find it unbelievable that Ep3 is the absolute last we see & hear of the NK/Undead/White Walkers/Winter/etc.
Maybe it is though! But it's theory time so we are just spitballing shit until next episode. Try not to have an aneurysm over every fan theory, k?

The Night King death was a total copy of the boss fight against Tarjan in Bard's Tale III. Hold zerg, bard stealth, HOLLDD ZERRG, Bard sneak, HOOOOLD ZERG, backstab Trajan, win game, game gud

Didnt like the episode. It seemed way to rushed, way too much build up for such a quick ending.

Did you make that video? I made sure not to attack you personally. So if you made that video, my bad I said it was just your monkey brain trying to make a pattern out of something. Which I don't think is an insult but ok.

"I really don't care to be honest.....BUT there is totally no wayz that's the end of the NK!!?!?11"

The final season I built the cliff face waterfall thing the repel down in the cave. I made a bunch of commemorative warped hatch lids they passed out to cast and crew the final day of filming for the series. I built some other nick knacks here and there over the years for them.

I am a blurry extra in the background of a Sawyer scene when he meets his mentor in a diner and they talk about the art of the grift.

The people saying it wasn't dark and fine can go get a cucumber and ram fuck themselves with it. The fact that so many have had to adjust footage and post it clearly shows it was a issue for many of us.I hope those people get Theon'd. Slap chop version.

What? You didn't enjoy 8 seasons of buildup starting with the very first scene of the entire series and hearing nonstop about the horror and death and the we are all going to die to this massive hundreds of thousands of dead army that just suddenly ended when a 90lb midget ninja girl took out something the rest of the world could never stop?
What is wrong with you!

LOL, no if I made youtube vids about popular shows I'd probably be banned for self promotion by now.

Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, is it?

I don't know how you translate my last 2 sentences into that gobbledygook you're spouting off.

No I know actual Hollywood people, not the dude who owns the porno booths.

Mitch grew up next to me. He apparently gets better cocaine then Scream does.



Mitch's sister Robyn was pretty fucking hot.
To be fair to Scram, It is Hollywood. Even the floor sweepers think they are better than everyone else.

I would like to see the people saying it wasn't dark. Literally every person in this thread and IRL have said it was too dark.
Who has the magical TV ?

The brightened scenes linked above are better, but too grainy now. The aerial fight is a lot better though.

And my TV looked like this first image here and I still thought it was way too dark:

Episode had some cool moments, but the slow start, which I guess was to build tension, was just rather boring (and too damn dark). I get they were going for some kinda horror movie vibe, but it just felt like they padded the runtime a lot. Not nearly enough named deaths.

Arya's kill was fine, I guess. Only issue for me was how fast the NK reacts turning around and grabbing her by the throat, but then just watches her drop the knife to her other hand and doesn't even try to do anything.

Photos taken with my phone comparing my monitor and (kinda old) TV watching my default webrip which has decent quality. Dark scenes only ever look this bad on my TV if I'm watching a shitty cam.

CNN - Theon's redemption shows the flaw in 'Game of Thrones'
But where in the show is the redemption of a "good woman?"
Theon isn't the only male "Game of Thrones" character on a redemptive journey. As plenty of other fans have pointed out, his journey closely mirrors that of Jaime Lannister, another wannabe child-killer.

But in our culture, it's worth questioning which types of characters are granted redemption and why. And usually, that means men. In "Game of Thrones," male characters have been afforded an empathy that we have yet to see granted to a woman.

"Game of Thrones" has always shown a tendency to privilege the male interiority over that of its female characters.

And point of view matters. Since the #MeToo movement began, there's been plenty of pushback against a society that privileges male points of view. As then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh prepared to rage before the Senate Judiciary Committee about his injured reputation, Kate Manne wrote a powerful piece in the New York Times introducing readers to her concept of "himpathy" -- "the inappropriate and disproportionate sympathy powerful men often enjoy in cases of sexual assault, intimate partner violence, homicide, and other misogynistic behavior."
