Glenn Quebec posted:Who gives a poo poo you promised him highgarden. Just agree to it and when it comes time for the ceremony of handing it over, have four guys with spears encircle him and slap him in irons. Then remind everyone to not be presumptuous with nobles and have him quartered. Yeah that part doesn't make sense. In order to claim his castle Brown need to publicly lead the northern force back to KL. He should know that if he doesn't earn his title in battle, even the new Queen can't give him a region randomly. Kind of like that general who was second to George Washington and ran to the British.

This scene represents the danger that Bronn and Cersei now pose to Jaime and Tyrion, and we couldn't think of a better way to demonstrate that than to have Bronn point the crossbow that Cersei gave him, at the two brothers.

DeadFatDuckFat posted:So how old is Khaleesi now Older than in the books probably. That's a largely good change they did from the books for the series from day one, and that is make most of the characters a little bit older than in the books. It was probably mostly done for convenience, but I'm grateful for it in any case. In the books Danaerys is 13 or something when she's married off and the early scenes with her are just astoundingly creepy to read. I kind of hate the fact that the books kind of give you the impression that this was perfectly normal in past societies, when it actually wasn't, even in the Middle Ages girls weren't frequently married off immediately upon turning 13 or 14 or having their first period (though it should be noted that happened in other times and societies in history, notably in ancient Rome, where women were quickly married out of the family upon reaching maturity). In fact it seems more like the norm was, even for noble families, to marry in your early twenties and typically to someone pretty close to you in age (disparities and exceptions of course happened). I think there's even a theory that due to widespread malnutrition in medieval society, even amongst the aristocracy, people typically even entered puberty later in life than is the case in the modern era.

I like how they completely hosed her character. If she had done what she planned to do and not help out Jon first then she’d have KL by now and could have just circled back after.

the worst part of this show isn't the loving unreality of it or how fake and bullshit they make poo poo that crosses into reality, it's that they can't even follow their own loving bullshit rules they made up in the first place. If it fits whatever lame loving poo poo they want to pull off they'll instantly change them within the same episode because they have garbage loving writers.

I mean Cercei is going to try to blow up the city, right? They've already mentioned several times in past seasons that there's wildfire buried all over the place, Tyrion and Cercei know this from having worked with the pyromancers and Jaime knows it because that's why he killed the Mad King in the first place, and there's a scene where he tells Brienne about it. Though I guess having poo poo pay off in some way isn't how DnD like to roll.

Mad Queen Dany has been inevitable since like book 2. It feels unearned in the show because the show runners care more about big crazy plot twists than having storylines and themes, but there were inklings of it back in the good seasons too.

Westerosi meeting etiquette doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Cersei definitely wants Tyrion dead and tried to have him assassinated, but spares him during their face to face? When executing a hostage is apparently just fine? It's not like she's even pretending to care what anyone thinks about her observing societal norms or rules of war after blowing up the church. And what's with Varys developing this sudden itch to take Danaerys out when she sacrificed her own goals/army to help protect the realm? The worst thing she's otherwise done was turn a couple of lords into smores.

Lil Peeler posted:The direwolves, an almost extinct species of supernaturally large apex predators, are found in the first scene of the first book. There are exactly six, and the sixth wolf, taken by the bastard son of the group, is albino. The wolves are hinted and foreshadowed as being inexorably linked to each of the characters. Apparently they were hugely expensive to keep working into the show (CGI).

also that first dragon's neck exploded in fire when it got hit, and the most recent one just bled. i bet it comes back and attacks from under the water and its not actually dead. otoh, it put up more of a fight than the night king so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I remember in season 1, the Baratheons coming up to Winterfel was a huge deal since it was a pretty long journey. Now with a snap of your fingers, you can be between the two with a single scene transition.

So the dragon is 100% coming back.
