life is killing me posted:There was no Hvitserk or Sigurd, and Halfdan was one of the brothers I think. As I understand, Halfdan and Hvitserk are the same person if we're talking about Ragnar's sons. Halfdan was known as Whiteshirt, which I believe is Hvitserk in Norse or whatever. Show Halfdan is someone else. Wafflecopper fucked around with this message at 09:40 on Jan 19, 2018 |

Man that was a poo poo ep. What happened to when Vikings had good battle scenes and actual shield walls? Now we get hollywood every man for himself bullshit without even the suggestion of a battle line and every named character gets to have a little personal moment in the middle of it all and no-one ever kills them when they're literally knelt down having a mourning session in the middle of a swirling melee even if they're a loving king Remember this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTYz439cA5w The first ever Vikings battle scene and still the best

Also Halfdan owned and seeing him go all Obi Wan when he ran into his smug douche brother on the battlefield really sucked

You also see the Mary Sue protagonist jump over the enemy shield wall and solo their entire back line

wormil posted:Well apparently not. We understand why they killed Ragnar but it was a risky decision, handled badly, and followed up very badly. Apparently Travis Fimmel was more integral to the success and quality of the show than the writers. What are you basing this on exactly? The show was already headed downhill even before Ragnar died and to me it's a case of the writing going to poo poo, not the absence of one actor
