I mean, you throw in LF watching through a peephole as a guy watches through a peephole and beats off, and you got yourself a gif.

TowerofOil posted:The subject of Arya's training keeps being brought up and maybe my memory is a bit hazy, but wasn't her training just mopping floors and getting hit with a stick? She did some blending in andd spying on targets while she had that superugly hairdo. Which she of course hosed up. "Army of the Dead that the Wall was built against according to all legends and stories? Come off it, we need to deal with real things like dragons, stone men and a girl that didn't burn"

KyloWinter posted:I thought that thease season was pretty bad but ep4 was decent, then this happened. This episode actually makes me not want to not watch any more. What utter garbage. It was possibly the worst episode of the entire show. loving nothing happened beyond hammerdude coming along. Everyone already distrusted littlefinger , Jon came back from his warm vacation to the exact same spot he was before and the maesters are still futzing around doing nothing. It was an episode of everyone talking and getting up to speed which is what we have had for most of the season except even more dull.

NowonSA posted:Yeah my take on it is the combination of showrunners wanting to end it quickly, HBO not wanting to bring new people on board to run it so late in the game, the quality of the show not being quite as certain when you're completely in uncharted book territory, and the growing actor costs alongside higher than usual FX costs. it's entertaining as hell, but it feels (and likely is) rushed, sloppy.

Davos has risen to Bronn levels of awesome this season. His line about living to a ripe old age was amazing. Also the rowing joke.

Ya, it’s pretty clear that with the book-seasons they have the luxury of watching beats develop, happen and unfold in the matrix of a larger story. These few episodes really smack of being transposed from bulletpoints, with a lack of imagination or depth. Isn’t westworld taking a longer than usual cycle before returning? I have no idea why got couldn’t ask for another 3 to 6 months before airing to bump up the quality a few notches.

I'll probably still keep watching because so far it's fun schlock. The dumb thing that bugged me the most in the finale is how they have disposable pleasure-bots that guests are free to murder every single day en masse for sadistic glee. And these disposable robots are in open rebellion killing guests and employees. Yet the hardcore tactilol internal security guys are all on some "SIR PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON" and getting gunned down instead of just rushing in guns blazing.

He's gotta fall in love with Sansa to make Arya jealous so Sansa and Arya can have a real spat next season instead of the fake one they're gonna have this season.

Arya will fall for him, but he won't feel anything but friendship towards her. It's the only way to have there be any tension between the sisters once they resolve the trust issues with "ruling the North" this season.

I made a joke about this after watching it, too. You could up that, though. I want a full 60 minutes of Littlefinger and Arya trying to one-up each other on furtive smarmy grins that both of them notice.

Goddamn it, you just made me realize Ghost isn't in Jon's RPG party. ... Although that might be a blessing in disguise, since they'd probably kill him to save a couple bucks on the CGI department. Did they seriously only have the budget for a couple seconds of Nymeria?

Jon personally going on the ghoul hunt is dumber than captain kirk beaming down with the away team every time, because at least in the later case they have a way to instantly return him from harm's way, and also an semi-hierarchical well-established command structure that will cope well with his absence.

How did Tyrion know Bronn and Jaime even survived that battle? How did he communicate with them? Even though it was very stupid and pointless, Davos collecting Gendry was a good scene because the actors were good and seemed to be enjoying it. Their sneaking into/out of King's Landing scenes was laughably cheap looking and absurdly easy. The guys trying to capture a wight is at least a relief because it has some of the best actors, but the dialogue when everyone met was real bad and does not give me high hopes for what should be a fun group. edit: and not ONE line of dialogue about how Jorah was cured of a definite death sentence? Everyone thought that disease was incurable! Not even a little curiosity about that? Mullitt fucked around with this message at 17:20 on Aug 14, 2017 |

So in the next episode Jon's group of raiders starts getting their poo poo pushed in and randomly Dany shows up at the right moment and saves the day but one of her dragons(viserys??) dies and in the following episode the undead dragon destroys the wall. It is a given Dany does something incredibly stupid to get her dragon killed, right. Also at some point Dany and Jon gently caress and Arya kills littlefinger? And if we are really lucky Tormund beds Brienne and she has baby giants who star in a GoT Sequel.

One of the more absurd fanservicy things will be when Sansa sends Brienne to King's Landing so that she can represent the North - mostly so that we can have a Brienne/Jaime and a Brienne/Hound scene in episode 7.

Much as I think she'd be cool in the ensemble, narrative wise her pledge is to Lady Stark and the Stark Daughters, so it does make sense she'd stay in their service versus go tromping off with their brother. So this is a case where by accident or design D&D actually made a character follow their motivation and do the less fanservicey cool thing.

Oh, I get that, but it's a main reason why I don't find the show as fun as many people here seem to. It's not fanservicey enough to be fun and the serious parts are very poorly written.
