Hell, even Samwell is probably going to be more important via finding some crazy old poo poo that's useful to defeating the White Walkers and he's literally just copying old rear end books now.

Arya (vengeance personified) and Tyrion (reason over force) are the 2 best and most interesting characters in the entire series (both books and t.v.). You're right about regaining Arya regaining her humanity and the Stark reunion, but you overlook the fact that she's going to kill Littlefinger. However, you are wrong that her plotline is pointless. It's rather cool that a pre-teen girl gets to function as Vengeance. Petyr Baelish's death is going to be very satisfying

They kinda have to keep arya hiding somewhere.

She's too much of a plot breaker. Like none of this matters if she's in kings landing and can just pull off a mask at any moment.

Bigger problem is that tyrion hasn't really done anything in like 3 seasons.

This season has felt very rushed and clumsy. Euron Greyjoy showing up out of nowhere and being this unstoppable badass is a bit hard to swallow. He seems like a deus ex machina for Cersei to rapidly move along the conflict.

He was always the baddest rear end dude in the Seas but I don't remember him ever being mentioned before

But my shock is that Cersei is dominating like this. WTF what happened to the Tyrells being this big badass

No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

Euron better pull a magic talisman or something out of his rear end because he is basically the Terminator who is everywhere at all times. It's loving stupid unless he's got serious magic help.

He showed it off once but that was the last we heard of him before GURM peaced out. It was basically something that destroyed dragons.

this whole season has a big "second half of Rome SE 02" about it

edit* yeah, controlled dragons. it was a horn that killed the guy that blew it which is a lovely job

SHOAH NUFF posted:

In the books he's got a horn that supposedly controls dragons, although I'm not sure if that's been brought up in the show or not. It seems that would be a hell of a lot more useful than whatshisface's dragon ballista thing Cersei's counting on.

Yeah, I've read about his horn, but that doesn't make him an unstoppable force who keeps just showing up everywhere. He'll probably use it to ultimately stab Cersei in the back.

It's feeling like they dawdled around for the past few season and were like, 'poo poo, we have to end this somehow' and are just flying through events this season.

Can y'all expand on thoughts about Bran? I know he's like, a completely different person now, but what was he getting at this week?

Yeah I'm just saying the last 2 episodes were real dumb without magic explanations. There are well laid plans and there are things that are too unbelievable such as Jaime marching a loving army away from King's landing and Varris, Tyrion, Littlefinger, the entire continent not knowing how to track their movement. poo poo is real dumb.

They were kinda caught in the middle of finishing what GRRMartin wrote and what their writers knew had to happen with it.

I think they kinda know no one will care about how trash the season is just as long as it ends with a big battle, some betrayal, a beloved character dying, and a lesbian orgy at some point.
