Seeing Ian McShane reminds that I should get around to watching the Deadwood bluray remaster, a much better HBO show cocksucker

I would certify it an A+ mastertroll if that's straight up Arya and she just dies at the beginning of next episode wrapping up her storyline as completely pointless waste of time.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:No revenge zombie means the organization that formed to protect the people from marauders does lots of rapey mcpillage. Man, those were some Rambo 4 levels of "random atrocities as plot device". Maybe worse, since the perpetrators had been previously established as being generally decent. Have they confirmed that they're not including Lady Stoneheart? Because her sending them back for Clegane is the only way I can imagine that scene making any loving sense.

Lycus posted:That would make sense? I mean, not really, but marginally more than "Surprise! We just love stabbin' now!" Since she presumably still thinks Clegane is a Bad Dude, that at least gives some sort of motivation. That particular scene didn't set the "makes more sense" bar incredibly high.

Jon travels from Wildling camp, to Bear Island, all the way south to Deepwood Motte in the span of an episode. Arya gets shanked and wisely decides to sterilize the wound with a saltwater bath. Little Sam still 3 months old. Also, when was the last time the show did a pre-credits teaser?

As much as I like Arya's character, the amount of salt this would generate on the internet would be glorious. We would never need to make anyone pissed of on the internet again, salt would be more plentiful than water. edit: The bad news is we get out bad threaded by the show directors but sacrifices must be made for the greater troll.

What a waste of Ian McShane. Maybe Septon Cocksucker was Frey aligned in his past life and the Brotherood decided anybody hanging out with him and Sandor loving Clegane was worth whacking out? I dunno. davecrazy fucked around with this message at 11:22 on Jun 6, 2016 |

Last week I felt like I was maybe done with caring about the show - not sure why, but last week's ep just sucked for me. Jaime was pretty cool, and Bronn is too. Jaime being hooked back on the Cersei is a bit odd, but ok, I can see it. She looks way hotter with short hair too, amirite? Arya getting shanked really surprised me. ps: a girl is a poo poo assassin. Thought the preview was cool.

Would of been interesting to see the House Mormont Maester react to news of the Others being an actual thing. A lot of fantastical poo poo is re-appearing in the world at a good clip and it would be interesting to see what Westeros's best answer to a scientist thinks about mythical ice zombies come back to life and whatnot. I guess that will be part of Sams story? Was Aemon in contact with the Citadel and all 'Hey guys, some poo poo is going down up here.' Wasn't the Nights Watchmen who took Arya up the Kingsroad originally in Kings Landing in the 1st place to warn about the wights and nobody would take him seriously or give him a meeting?

Yeah It was Thorne, he was sent so he and Jon wouldn't kill each other, and also because a knight might get some more respect in the capital. That backfired because at that point Tyrion was hand and remembered how much of a dick Thorne was when they met so Tyrion let him stew until the hand was fully decomposed so nothing ever came of it. Well other than Tyrion sending Slynt to the wall.

How is he going to wear her face if she's alive? The faces in the show seem to just be fancy masks anyway, I'm not sure a grown rear end man can turn into a little girl with one.

Actually enjoyed that. Felt like the show when it was kinda good. With the brotherhood getting mentioned more and more, and Jaime, Brienne et al converging in the Riverlands, might we actually get Lady Stoneheart? Where's the siege at in the books by the way? Did Jaime take the castle before being whisked away?

Why all the Arya conspiracy theories? She went to Bravvos, got a degree in assassination, almost lost herself, didn't. That's the only way that story was ever going to turn out.
