Jeb! Repetition posted:I really wish they'd kept the "coldly beautiful" aesthetic. It was a lot more interesting than just regular wrinkly emaciated undead. It'd also just look better on screen. Something gorgeous and perfect raising hordes of the terrifying undead gives you a wicked contrast.

Imho the Others are lovely do-nothing villains to begin with and Martin obviously doesn't really know how to follow through on their plot, so I'm not surprised the geniuses that run the show couldn't come up with anything better than Cool Ranch Darth Maul.

I don't know if that's deliberate, but NK's buddy could have brought him more than one spear. They should move as smoothly as a swirl of fresh frost blown off a snow bank, imo.

I strongly doubt the validity of those spoilers. But they'd be worth it just for the incredibly negative fan reaction they would get.

I misread the spoilers for next season but now that I'm thinking about it, I really want Dany to die between seasons. Have her go out on a high note this season, end with her finding out she's pregnant, then first shot of season 8 is Jon standing in the frame with a baby and a stupid look on his face as they figure out how to pull a Weekend at Bernie's with Dany's corpse.

I think it'd be a great ending for her to die without an heir and jon never find out he could be king. So whoops, time to fight over a stupid chair again, whoever still wants it.

All the named characters except for Bronn and Tyene die between seasons. Last season is just Bronn and Tyene stabbing things and loving, repeat as necessary.

He definitely has an end planned out for them and has a "reason" written for them too. How the characters reach that now he hasn't got his five year gap? That's what's hosed it up.

Remember when Arya served Tywin Lannister for like half a year even though she could have easily had Jaqen kill him at any point or just escape cause no one knew who she was and she wasn't under any form of duress? Cause I think Arya forgot all about that when she bitched at her sister.

She also forgot the way Sansa reacted when Ned died.  And before that happened, Joffrey told the crowd that Sansa begged him for her father's life. Arya forgot that too. The latest Preston Jacobs review points out that she even forgot how the first Winterfell scene in the show went. some bust on that guy fucked around with this message at 12:35 on Aug 23, 2017 |

She doesn't respect that Sansa "tried" to stop it by rolling over like a weak little girl and she's spent 5 seasons dealing with her survivors guilt by living in denial that she's a little girl too. The people saying "it's because arya is the waif/jaqen" are mistaking the subtext for the actual text. She's acting like the psycho killer characters because she's been directly modelling herself on them as the newest prodigy of their death cult. The waif was no one. Arya is no one. Arya is the waif now. massive spider fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Aug 23, 2017 |

"Summer found the episodes squatting in the DVR, groaning. Every episode was looser than the one before, and smelled fouler. By the time autumn came up the show was making GBS threads brown water. The longer the show went on, the more it shat, but the more it shat, the thirstier the circlejerk of casual viewers grew, and they send it crawling to the stream to suck up even more casual viewers." - Tolkien of Somthing Awful (probably)

No depth, no thought, no meaning, just tits & dragons. Yeah I've noticed that when people try to base predictions or interpretations on subtext and not overt text, they always end up being proven wrong either by what happens or what D&D say in some interview.

She doesn't respect that Sansa "tried" to stop it by rolling over like a weak little girl and she's spent 5 seasons dealing with her survivors guilt by living in denial that she's a little girl too. If Arya is upset at Sansa for not getting herself killed by trying to stab to death the Queen, the prince, the Hound, and the rest of the Lannisters. I'm not sure that's any better than having a poor memory. That's a thought that an angry child would have. It feels like should be coming from 11 year old Season 1 Arya, not adult Arya. Even with that attitude, it's still stupid of her to act like Sansa was on the side of the Lannisters and betrayed her family. She can call her weak for not committing suicide (Which is awful enough) without genuinely believing the letter. Her reading Sansa saying "The Lannisters are treating me well and providing me with every comfort." and believing it's sincere despite the fact that Joffrey said she begged him for her father's life makes no sense. Also if the story is just that Arya is really hosed up, then Sansa should be treating it as that. She shouldn't be concerned about the Northern Lords discovering the letter. That's so stupid.

DrNutt posted:Is he talking about the arrow thing? Because she's pretty clearly describing a different time. No, because she's talks about Bran training as if it was his 20th session and it was her first time shooting an arrow, but in the first scene of the show she's already good enough to hit the bullseye while Bran is clearly still brand new to it. It's a massive loving mistake to make considering it's literally the first scene of the entire show, it happens 40 seconds after the credits are over in the first ever episode. E: VVV It's not sperging. It's wanting consistency with events we have literally seen on screen, it's another mark of the bad writing that has plagued the show since Season 4. We enjoy complaining, if you don't enjoy reading it, don't read it.

I mean, it's along the lines Tony Soprano saying in the sixth season that he went to Dr. Melfi because of erectile dysfunction, I mean sure, most people won't care or notice but by golly it's still a massive loving mistake.
