Well those spoilers are all pretty loving on point aren't they. Don't know whether I should feel bad about reading them or not, kind of looking forward to seeing how it plays out. Wonder what the cliffhanger for this season will be.

Solice Kirsk posted:There's episode by episode spoilers if you click my latest probation that seem even more accurate. I'd post them, but I'm on my phone. You can get probated in GBS for spoilers? Our GBS? What the hell? I'd just assumed nothing happened worth spoiling this season because the GBS thread didn't have it's title changed to spoilers.

TheRat posted:She asked him for 14 days (a fortnight), and swore she would pay her debts by then. Then she sacked Highgarden, and in the trailer for the next episode we see her giving the iron bank Tyrell gold. Do any of you actually watch the show or are you just making up random complaints in your furious minds? no house has anywhere near enough gold to pay off the debt to the iron bank.

it's really loving funny if the reason the wall falls is due to humans raiding north of it the maesters were right, White walkers are real but don't matter unless you're so stupid as to head into their territory with dragons and lose them lmao

StopHangingDjs posted:Were people actually expecting Dany to just poo poo stomp every villain for the next 3 seasons? They didn't have to give Daenerys three allies (Greyjoys, Martells, and Tyrells) only to dispose of them in three episodes. The problem is they set up a situation where Daenerys was much more likely to win than Cersei, and they just rewrote things to even it out. Pointlessly; they just should have never written themselves into that corner.

It would have been less stupid if Olenna and Dorne just never met with Daenerys in the middle of the sea. Like Varys hosed up the directions and they kept on sailing to Qarth and dissapeared from the plot altogether.

it's extremely funny that olenna and elaria didn't mention how terrible their armies are in the grand strategy session. they couldn't even defend themselves, how were they going to siege King's landing anyways who cares cersei is gonna win and euron is gonna put a finger in her butt double

Hey guys I'm Euron. I'm gonna intercept ships going to Dorne. Then take prisoners back to King's landing. Then be at the other side of thr land mass in time for the unsullied's attack despite them leaving at the same time as the other ships heading to Dorne. No big deal.

Look at the Vale, Winterfell, KL, Riverrun, and Dragonstone in the concept art vs how it's portrayed in the show. Pretty damned close Now look at Casterly Rock and Highgarden. It's almost an afterthought

I mean I don't care at all and the plotting has been unbelievably lazy for 2 and a half seasons now , it's just funny

I too cannot imagine the most prominent Bannermen of a noble house causing a schism that results in a number of their lesser Bannermen staying loyal to the crown over the house they've sworn fealty.

How much has Sam heard about Jon? His death/resurrection? That he beat the Bolton's and is KotN? I can't remember. I was just thinking that learning about Jon's situation could motivate him to return to Winterfell. Maybe he learns something about Jon's parentage.

Like the Tyrells being one of the few large, well provisioned armies left in the kingdom has been a plot point for 2 and a half seasons right up until last episode when they were going to be the main sieging force against King's Landing. Castles being really hard to storm was established 5 minutes earlier in this episode with Tyrion providing voice over about how it leads to heavy losses even with him having exclusive knowledge of a secret entrance. The Lannisters rolling into Highgarden in a single afternoon without suffering major losses to their main force is pretty hilarious after all that, but not as hilarious as everyone defending it as anything but a lazy way to make the Lannisters a compelling threat as quickly as possible.

Eeeeeh I get the complaint, but you're assuming Euron was *with* that part of his fleet that showed up at Casterly Rock, and unless I blinked and missed it, they don't show him. He could easily have gone back with a small fleet to King's Landing while sending the rest on. Not saying he did or didn't, just that he could have.

Blitz7x posted:I think it's pretty likely he finds the annulment of marriage between Raeghar his wife in those scrolls and runs north to tell Jon? The expended spoilers had a bit on this: Sam and Bran talk about it, and Bran tells Sam that Jon is actually Jon Sand (from having watched Tower of Joy). Sam then says no, he found records of annulment of Rhaegar's marriage to Elia, and that he then married Lyanna. Jon's real name is Aegon Targaryen. Bran then watches a bunch of flashbacks of Rhaegar and Lyanna getting married + Lyanna telling Ned the name of her child.
