More main characters should have died. If I'm being honest I wanted the wights to win but that all of the people killed were orbital characters seems a bit light for GoT. I guess Daenerys losing her army is pretty big but I expected the long night to be a bit more dire.

having either Varys, Tyrion, Jon or Arya die would've been pretty good IMO. Arya dying in her effort to kill the Night King could've had some interesting god of death plot stuff in it. For a second I thought everyone at winterfell was gonna die which also would've been pretty sweet imo

Best Friends posted:They keep showing Jon be a terrible leader but telling us he's great. Just like they keep showing us Dany being a psycho willing to do any cruelty to commoners for power but telling us she's kind and just. Uh Cersei has ordered a bunch of murders, prolonged a couple wars, blew up a religious institution, was stockpiling an incredibly volatile substance under Kings Landing which put the entire city in peril, and has a loving zombie bodyguard. She also killed her husband and has plotted to kill her remaining siblings. She also regularly bangs members of her family for whatever reason. Dany is fighting a war of reclamation against a country that has already torn itself apart fighting one another. I don't think her position is any more morally suspect than any of the individuals who declared themselves king.

Best Friends posted:how many murders and rapes are 50,000 dothraki doing every day? They're just not on camera. How many more peasants are getting eaten by her unchained dragons? The camera shows us very little of Danny's cruelty, but it's on a massive scale and she doesn't care. Pretty sure those are the norm for these armies given that Gregor Clegane was commanding forces for a while and he is a real rape enthusiast (tm)

holocaust bloopers posted:Arya is going to attempt an assassination on Cersei. The Mountain will kill her. The Hound will then have more motivation to ice his brother. Zombie Clegane has been shown to be many things but light on his feet he is not. If they write him teleporting to grab Arya from the shadows I'm gonna feel pretty disappointed. Maybe not the right thread for it but that Chernobyl show is pretty terrifying, particularly if you've done any reading about the incident. Managed to convey how completely hosed most of the people there are.

Duzzy Funlop posted:I'm so stoked for watching the first episode tonight. The atmosphere reminds me quite a bit of "The Terror" so yeah I think they nailed the creeping sense of dread and doom that responding to a meltdown of that magnitude would likely cause.

pantslesswithwolves posted:Yo sup my name is Dany and I can’t quite figure out whether the one thing that I have that no one else does that reigns fire and death on everything is better used as a strategic weapon to be selectively employed as so to maximize its survivability and effectiveness against the enemy or as a reconnaissance asset that I myself will personally use. On a completely unrelated note, I have no idea why I’ve lost 2/3 of these assets in recent weeks. I don't think she anticipated that they'd develop precision Sea to Air defense systems that can take out dragons all of a sudden

Looking back at older seasons it does seem like they spent more in CGI to make the battles denser / more interesting. Wouldn't be surprised if they blew their nut on season 6 and have been coasting since

UP THE BUM NO BABY posted:I watched it with some nukes and had to remind them that yes, this is roughly what happened and people really did gently caress up that badly because they were in constant disbelief. Sounds like those dink rear end nubs didn't read their nuclear accident reports during power school. I've been watching it and I'm seeing why certain rules and practices exist. They were probably learned from this incident and adopted into regular nuclear operating standards.

UP THE BUM NO BABY posted:My understanding of the event is they straight up ignored a lot of best practices and underreported the severity of the situation at almost all stages of the immediate response. Guess we'll get to see what the level of institutional knowledge is once they call in the investigators to figure out what happened.

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:Chernobyl looks good. I was curious how historically accurate it is, and if it carries some anti-nuclear undertone So far it seems pretty true to the information that has been released publicly about the incident. The first episode certainly didn't have any anti-nuclear rhetoric associated with it but given how the situation was handled I wouldn't be surprised if some people read anti-nuclear sentiment from the show.

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:Well that’s good to know at least. Trust me I’m happy for a big production on it all but cannot help but think it pushes the layman back on being pro-nuclear a bit Nuclear is loving dead so who cares. At least in the states it is

gently caress GRRM for handing the series he was too lazy to finish off to a company that is too lazy to finish it right. The wights should have won

Mr. Nice! posted:This is how he planned the finish, though. Although some things shifted slightly, D&D made GRRM give them the rest of the major plotpoints he had planned. These events could probably due with some narrative framing instead of each of them occurring back to back to back

What could the overarching theme of GoT be? War is bad? The weak will.be punished? Don't gently caress with Casterly rock? Cercei's oval office destroyed westeros?
