Last year a bunch of randos hosed Drogon up some so I can't imagine they'll be useful at all if a few people don't panic. e: Or was that two years ago, whatever

Dragons are less nukes and more air support/bombers. Having them do strafing fire breathing runs should mess up a lot of regiments. Too bad their scales aren't worth poo poo, though. And the ballistae are only there to show how tough they can be, but since the Night King has Blizzaga and their elemental weakness is Ice...

Assuming the leaked outline is accurate, Drogon more or less singlehandedly wins a fight by swooping back and forth over an army and burning it alive, and also tanks a ballista bolt without it even piercing his scales. Which is weird given a few dumbasses with hand thrown javelins were able to pierce his scales not two seasons ago, but w/e.

he's the size of a 747 now. also it's insanely reasonable for him to win a battle solo since every person fighting back grew up hearing stories of dragons=you get burned alive. they should all be running the second they see a dragon

Depending on which fantasy series you want to cite they should have a fear aura that instantly panics horses and soldiers The leaks suggest Jamie doesnt give a poo poo about 'winning' anything in that moment, only getting the wagons into KL

Being burned alive and giant predatory animals are two things that are gonna be scary to people no matter the time and place, fictional or otherwise. The rookie soldiers Lannister are down to by now(as evidenced by cameo by some popstar everyone was freaking out about two weeks ago) would have to have gone through some serious training to stand their ground and take shots at a dragon.

Don't worry, they have a wooden weapon that is hard to aim.

Incorrect - they have *dramatic reveal* six wooden weapons that are hard to aim!

Why does it look like it was typed on a typewriter and then photocopied hundreds of times since the 80's like an old lease document?

HBO acknowledged the hack and they got a couple episodes of some shows no one watched, too. I'm filing it under 'plausible.' I guess we don't need to wait long to know for sure.

Everything in that plot outline lines up exactly with what's been leaked from translators. It's real.

If it's accurate after like 63 hours of build up Dany is finally going to take the field in Westeros and do cool dragon queen stuff. This ep is gonna be part of where last ep's rad castle budget must have gone.

I mean specifically bad writing like the "Lannister tartare" line and the "blasted to poo poo" among others.

I mean it's not like these are lines someone is gonna say in the show, they are obviously for the benefit/amusement of the other writers and staff among whom the outline is being distributed. Yeah it's kind of dumb but it's not different from the goofy tone people often adopt in this very thread when spitballing about future direction of the plot.

The show where they aged up the characters so their rape scenes could be shown on TV.

I wonder what Arya is gonna do between now and when she supposedly executes Littlefinger at the end of the season. If the outline is accurate, I'm glad the writers decided that the Stark kids can't understand each other anymore because of all the poo poo they've been through. I hated how after his escape Theon just went straight back to Pyke again and fell right in with Yara, especially after she tried to rescue him and said he was dead to her etc.

She goes to Winterfell and dicks around following Littlefinger and has a fight with Brienne. Brienne thinks that Arya is a total badass who could easily kick her rear end if she wanted.

I mean would you rather live with a loving, if kinda dumb, family or with a bunch of surly assholes on a lovely island. First thing when he gets back is his sister playing a gross sexual prank on him, followed by his dad calling him a loser for wearing a shirt he didn't take off a murdered fisherman. I think at that point you just

The last episode has Cersei waking up in a bed of blood after a miscarriage but nothing more about her after it. Could it be that the younger brother that's supposed to kill her will be that miscarriage?

I forget how they phrased it in the show but in the books the prophecy says that the valonqar will choke her by hand.

I don't know why you would type out a regular story type paragraph in final draft, it's literally way easier to write dialog in the regular script style with those programs. But I don't really know anything about "outline" standards in the industry so
