monster on a stick posted:Sansa's still in the best position she's been in since her dad got his head chopped off. Littlefinger is creepy as hell but he's also not going to let any harm come to her. Nah, her time with Tyrion is the best time she's had since poo poo started getting real.

the kawaiiest posted:You have to stop thinking about this story as one with a single protagonist. They're all "the main character" of their own story arcs. Jon, Arya, Tyrion, Cersei, Jaime, Davos, Sansa, etc. He said left to root for, as in he probably doesn't enjoy watching the stories of the other people as much.

That and while they may have been hunted to [near] extinction in that continent, there are probably poo poo tons of them in the across the oceans. There have always been stories and sightings from far off lands, but they get discounted. Also, they may have just migrated away during that big volcano explosion back in the day - the Time of Doom or whatever bullshit.

But can we all agree that Terry Goodkind and his Sword of Truth series eats its own rear end in a top hat after a while, at least?

Oxxidation posted:grrm's entire career consisted of setting up the exact same dominoes and then knocking them down until he finally, mercifully, ran out of ideas Do you think he is kinda just hoping he will die soon so he doesn't have to finish the series?

^^^ haha, yeah, 'What are Other bears' is the answer to that Jeopardy question there. They should have spent some time dirtying him up. I don't understand why he's got zero 'environmental' makeup when he's supposed to be this evil, dirty motherfucker. I really liked the look of the first Gregor. He just oozed skeeze and rage and evilness.

agarjogger posted:Wait, so per Melissandre's scene browsing her bullshit-potions, how fake is magic? There was nothing fake about the smoke demon who got Renly, I suppose. And Beric definitely took a broadsword to the shoulder. If not for the existence of the Wall, I'd forget that magic was ever a big deal in Westeros. She wasn't saying magic is fake, merely some of the things used to convince people. Magic is a dangerous tool used in service, not as a thing to bring a crowd. She was saying how even lies can be used as servants for truth.

I think clearly this show should split a season between two years, like what they did with Breaking Bad and Mad Men. The more time between each episode means the more time we have to savor the episode prior. It is the only way.

Super Ninja Fish posted:You realize it's going up against the final season of Breaking Bad? In terms of acting, cinematography, music, sound, editing, emotion, I haven't seen any area that GoT is better than. And True Detective, but I understand BB has a lot more weight behind. GoT is REALLY FUN and there are some darn good actors on it, but it's not by any means a peerless showing beyond the clothing.

regulargonzalez posted:Given that there was no episode tonight, and further given that people were dissing GRRM's writing ability, if anyone is interested in reading the chapter featuring next episode's duel I found that chapter online. Obviously it will spoil the episode, so I won't link it here but you're welcome to PM me for the link. The writing for the fight is incredibly exciting and completely draws you in, it's really compelling writing imo. Uhhh....why don't you just link it in the post? It's not like it's a big fuckoff image that will spoil everyone even those uninterested. It's a link that requires a second click to get there. Label it and leave it.

MeLKoR posted:A Dream of Spring won't come out until a year after the TV show ends and it will be a novelization of the last season by Alan Dean Foster. Brandon Sanderson will be taken hostage and tied to a bed until he writes the last book in GoT. He may or may not have his feet broken with a sledgehammer in order to convince him.
