Next week Beric dies by transferring his own life force to resurrect... Theon's dick. Carts and Grey Worm look on in envy.

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:Well you’re probably going to have to keep waiting since that’s most assuredly a digitally inserted body double, like Dany in Vaes Dothrak or Cersei’s walk of shame. Or what they also do and had her wear clothes, but then digitally inserted nudity. Cersei will be the final bad of the series, because i cannot imagine her end being less satisfying than the Night King.

She doesn't look 12 at all she just has a very round head. When she makes any kind of facial expression besides boredom she definitely looks like she's in her 20s. She'd also extremely short so I guess that plays into it as well. Gendry is like a good foot and a half above her.

"Hey, I get that being put into a sex scene can be really uncomfortable and also triggering questions about the male gaze and exploitation of women in the entertainment industry, so you can just wear clothes for it. But don't worry, we'll use our computers to pore over every inch of your body and replace it with a digital substitute to make sure everything thinks you're really nude."

They've been hiding her body growth by dressing her like a boy or ninja her entire time on the show so she doesn't look to age as much as everyone else and everyone still thinks of her as a girl. On top of that, a lot of people just don't like seeing people they knew as preteens having sex in general because they get natually paternal/maternal over them.

I just want the Night King to say something. Just give him a line or two, I just don't want him to be this force that never says anything the whole series.

JT Jag posted:what nuanced book, there's been no book to base the show off of for over a season Which is why I’m ok with them sticking to the 73 episode goal set in season 2 and hurrying, rather than the show overstaying it’s welcome and going for 10 seasons of 10 episodes. Benioff and Weiss are great at adapting the series for TV, but when the author himself can’t figure out how to pull this grand story together and release another book after 9 years, I can’t begrudge them too much for not living up to the standards of earlier seasons. It’s like having a heart surgeon sub in for a neurosurgery. Sure it would be ideal if the neurosurgeon was available to carry out this important surgery, but the heart surgeon is all we have got. The fact that they don’t want to put themselves in a position where they have to create even more of the story from scratch is completely understandable.

Oh yeah there was one other thing I didn't like (and I'm saying this as someone who still generally likes the show and loved this episode). Sam's weird way too long speech about death during the war room meeting. What was that

It was cool when a woman who is 22, but at one point was 12 (like most 22 year olds) had sex and everyone had to post "Umm gross much?" for eight pages.

Sam then takes a deep inhale from his family sword-bong and begins talking about how only Joy Division truly understood him.

Look, uncomfortable Maisie Williams sex scene is the price you pay for all of the much more erotic sex scenes from the early seasons. You got Natalie Dormer, Sibel Kekilli, and Nathalie Emmanuel. Now it's time to pay the Arya price.

What a waste of an episode. Nothing happened. And the writing is so dumb now.  Brienne being knighted was like the only scene I really enjoyed. The rest was just going through the motions. Nothing interesting at all.
