HBO's Game of Thrones - Final Season VIII - 2nd Thread

[nvrstopworking]

Siddig and Ian McShane were the two most criminally wasted talents on this show.



Also, where the heck is Bronn?

Add in the dude who played Stannis (who’s whole character really was wasted).

Not sure that it matters where Bronn is now tbh. Cersei and Jaime are dead... meaning Tyrion’s the only real Lannister left with any power. I’d imagine he’d just join back up with him now. Would make no sense to kill him.

One remaining episode to close everything off?

I don't even...

[MajesticLion]

I’m praying Ian McElhinney’s (Barristan Selmy) comments are the truth.

I'd missed this, thanks. It wouldn't be surprising that GRRM has finished and just hasn't told anyone, but at this point...who knows really.

[CaliSuperSport]

Was there a symbolism/meaning behind the horse that Arya saw/rode away on? I know there is the pale mare reference, but is there something else I'm missing? Because that pathetic chit made me laugh.

IIRC, pale horses are a biblical reference to death. But in this case it saved her life.

#Deep, I guess?

[HomerJThompson]

Meh. Was never a fan of this actor and what they did with Euron in general. They had an interesting story in Dorne and a great actor playing Prince Doran (Alexander Siddig).

Night King and the undead army was all the “big bad” that the show needed after Ramsay... but they fukked that up royally too. Surprise surprise.

Annoying thing is that they didn’t even have to kill Rhaegal off they way they did... could have just waited and had him go down against some of the scorpions either on the wall or in the fleet. Would have added to Dany’s rage seeing him die like that too and made her actions more believable.

Good point, could have been the trigger that made her go crazy and kill everybody.

[PepperedAngus]

Prop bet lock of the century.

70 year old obese author finishing 2 1000+ pages books? Just LOL

He’s out enjoying his royalties. If we’re lucky, we’ll get ONE of them.

one books already done for the most part, and im hoping for a strong finish from our guy, but yeah it could easily go sour if his health declines. Im betting hes just waiting on the show to end to put out the finished product, and who knows he may already have pen on paper on the last one, but the timing of the show meant he had to wait to put out winds of winter, from all the rumors its been finished and in editors hands for a long while now.

[umadbroski]

A lot of things didnt make any sense:
-Nobody noticing Jamie escaped.
-Arya going from badass to "please somebody save me"
-Dany going full crazy and killing thousands of innocent people even after they surrendered.
-Varys death, just too simple for a charachter like he was.
-Euron fighting Jamie for no reason.
-Jamie being able to walk to "save" Cersei after being stabbed twice.
-Cersei and jamie dying like

Spoiler!

daredevil and elektra.

-Dany not just burning cersei right away.
-Drogon evading all the scorpion spears like they are nothing.
-The Horse surviving when almost everybody else is dead.

Lmao, nice writing.

This.

Just off of the top of my head; Sam, Gendry, Bronn, Dany, Jon, all the Starks, Davos, Tyrion, Grey Worm, Yara all need their character arcs completed. There’s probably more I’m missing but it’s just not possible. There’s gonna be a ton of **** not tied up.

[Destor]

Fkin serious? I thought this was obvious...

"She's not eating"

"Try again at supper"

As in "We'll try poisoning her again at supper"

Are you boys slow?

Thought that was obvious lol

Varys has never used his little birds as assassins, they’re his spies. To me, the girl was likely who would be bringing food to Daenarys and Varys was likely using her to keep tabs on her state of mind, maybe specifically in terms of whether she was planning on killing him

Maybe he was trying to poison her, but I don’t think it’s obvious at all if that’s the case

[DannStark]

They all died for this

Spoiler!

[TheIronAsylum]

He's a clever dude who got real dumb in the end. Just like Littlefinger and Tyrion.

yea but someone was saying in the books he had some sort of abilitiy or something curious what that was

[ohiostate124]

He does in the books so it’s not unheard of.

[HomerJThompson]

You make great points man, it was her first time seeing mr hound, not like they travelled months together, your point is so valid. Also not like this is the same girl that makes human pies, no point in revenge indeed.

[juvefan]

They all died for this

Spoiler!

Hodor died so bran can be used as bait

[mrsloppyfist]

He sniped a wounded and recovering Rhaegal... you're not very good at this are you

this


dragons can dodge it if they see it coming

but Rhaegal didnt see it coming

Don't forget he was also at the lowest point of the building so he had to climb up bulk stairs whilst carrying a heavy ass golden hand and bleeding out of both sides

[brofist]

Damn... all these alpha fukking characters died for nothing. Turns out 2 chicks wreck the entire world because they want to bang dudes they are related to.

[meteoraniac]

i wanna see danny and jon try to kill each other, dies together and Bran rolling in at the background to the tune "they see me rolling they hatin" while levitating to the iron throne... the end

Lollllllllllllll

[MajesticLion]

Maybe not shown to be used that way by Varys, but they're more than capable of it. Remember Pycelle.

[mrsloppyfist]

what was with the little girl baldy was talking to at the start of the episode?

[2RDEYE]

****ing mindblown by this director every ****ing time.

even if you don't like the show, gotta admit that was one of the best war takes ever. so brutal. so much detail. and the camera work is insane.

[flexnation]

Fukin loled at the entire episode

Brb Dany goes mad within 2 episodes.
Brb She out of nowhere decides to burn women and children.
Brb What the fuk are you gonna be the Queen of? Everyone died
Brb destroy ballistas and Euron's ships in 5 mins easily, couldn't do it last episode?
Brb Jaime's whole arc = garbage
Brb Tyrion's arc = garbage
Brb Euron and Jaime on the same side yet they fight to death for no reason
Brb Dragon can just spam fire nonstop like the cuckold Jaydawg sucks D&D balls.
Brb The mountain turns out to be Varys all this time


Brb brb Fukin lmao

Too many lols to count.... a few of my faves though...

- massive Iron Fleet armed to the teeth with scorpions gets taken out by ONE fukking dragon. No one even lands a shot lol.

- 20,000 Golden Company... a legendary mercenary army... gets decimated before they can even do anything.

- Varys gets an even stupider death than Littlefinger. Arguably the smartest man in the 7 kingdoms who has dealt with and manoeuvred around dozens of rulers can’t get away from Dany when he knows that she’s going to kill him?

- Drogon flying back and forth nuking every scorpion on the wall.... while again... not taking a single hit.

- Dany going full Mad Queen for some reason and killing everyone rather than just flying to the Red Keep and destroying it (and Cersei)

- the laughable Hound/Mountain battle where Hound is suddenly made of stone and can withstand dozens of hits from his brother... any one of which could easily crush a man’s skull and splatter his brains.

- the retarded Euron/Jaime fight... Euron just happens to pop up right there after swimming miles in the sea in his full armour? And then has Jaime dead to rights but decides to impale himself on Jaime’s sword for some reason.... ok.

- Jaime and Cersei buried under tons of rock... fine... extremely underwhelming but whatever.

- Arya turning from ice-cold faceless man super assassin to retarded school girl in the span of one show. Was lol’ing hard when she literally got dozens of people killed... “come with me!! You can’t stay here!!”.... *proceeds to get sliced down by Dothraki and then fried by dragon fire... yet of course... she somehow survives it all...

This show has gone from epic drama to all-time comedy lol.

Not a single satisfying scene in the whole damn ep other than a few minutes of Drogon going HAM. Congrats D&D... another bang up writing job!

These. 2 fuking autists are the reason we can't have nice things. Also lol'd hard at the "I killed Jamie Lannister" line from Euron after Jamie stabbed him.

[markkillerings]

He may have. I think it was him who blocked the exit with all the rubble.

Game of thrones in a nutshell folks

[ohiostate124]

Lolwut. You think Euron, who was run through with a sword, got up and collapsed the tunnels by himself?
