Can't wait for Beric Dondarrian with his flaming sword, I'm just going to pretend that Richard Dormer has just been playing the same role in Fortitude as well, because it basically is.

You mean the map that get's show for about a minute on every episode?

1. No one watches the intro every time in rapt attention to see the map.

2. The map doesn't tell you if a distance is 'long' or 'short' and neither does the show, because the amount of 'time' it takes for characters to move is largely dependent on pacing and plot convenience, not on real geographical approximation. So for the most part you can't really say that something is 'too far'.

Watching the replay of last year's finale, why don't the High Sparrow and the other faith militant leaders have to carve stars into their heads anyway?

The intro map is a lot harder to follow as they added locations. Early on it was like King's Landing -> north to Winterfell -> north to the Wall, easy enough. But now it like spins from the Wall to look southeast toward Braavos and then runs west to Meereen and the back to north to hit Dorne or something. It's probably pretty hard to make sense of if you've only watched the show.

I hope they abort the Iron Islands plot just like they aborted Dorne's plot last season. Have Euron hit a rock and anticlimaticly sink. Move to the interesting stuff please.

I love that Cersei is so petty that her "Win Everything" plan had to have a special subsection dedicated to getting revenge on Shame Nun. Like all it would have taken for her plan to fail is for someone to notice that Shame Nun was missing.

On the other hand, Fabio Dario would have bailed on Dany the moment he was offered a leading role on the latest theatrical run of "The Braavosi Cart Driver"

because gently caress you, got mine, that's why

But for real tho I think the carved star is an atonement thing and people who have been in the priesthood for life aren't obligated
