GoT season 8

[QillerDaemon]

Wow is this show suffering. Writing is shit. Not having Martin's source material is clearly taking a toll IMHO.

https://www.buzzfeed.com/jennaguillaume ... -episode-4 seems to agree...

Brienne of tarth should have taken one for the team and got naked. Then again, maybe its better she kept the blanket on.

Decent episode I guess but not what we've come to expect.
After foreshadowing the ever living hell out of Varys and his "love for the realm" expect him to kill Danny when she orders a thrashing of Kings Landing. Unless that was just a giant Red Herring of course. Jamie's story arc was interesting. Poor Brianne. Sansa looked hotter than usual.

I think the little fella will do it, more drama. He's arguing against Varys but when she starts ordering kiddies to be burnt he'll overcome his tortured conflicts, get a step ladder, and stab her. Then she'll have a moment of redemption on the way out.

Alas, we have probably seen her baps on film for the last time.

I agree in that it does seem to be heading down the same road "Lost" did. They've just got too much to try and explain and wrap up now in just 2 episodes. To me the writing just has a lazy feel to it.

The show has never been great on naval engagements, though the battle of the blackwater at least kinda made sense, but that last shitshow was really dialling it in. The chick on a dragon who can see them coming from 12 hours away didn't notice them, they have a new magic superweapon (that at least is explained by Euron finding the infinity stone), and the whole engagement is just passed over anyway. Lame.

They basically skipped an episode that should have had that battle in it. And totally neutralised dragons as an offensive threat against the city.

Sansa can piss in my face and I would smile. Dany could've attacked Eurons fleet from directly above or at their six o'clock and fucking roasted them.

[kwebber]

I'm probably stating the obvious, but it's going to be either Arya, or one of Cersei's brothers, that kills her. She always hated the imp. He get's his revenge?

[beagleboy]

What else is Jamie rushing back to Queens Landing to do? He can't be a good man for Brienne unless he fixes his wrongs. Then both brothers die and Bronn is fucked.

I love how the guru is talking military strategy like they are aircraft carriers. Come in at their six boys!

[CaptQuint]

Someone sounds hurt

[Stapes]

That was probably the best episode I've seen.

[CaptQuint]

This is way better than The Sopranos

[Blast]

That was messy. Anyone got a marshmallow?

[CaptQuint]

Don’t think those elephants would have helped

[Blast]

Don’t think those elephants would have helped

They could have helped feed the survivors... ohhhhhhh nevermind.

[Blast]

Dumb cunt

Who?

The question now is has Arya added a new name to her list or its John going to do the dirty.

While talking with some family yesterday about how generally lame GOT has been this year I came up with this tidbit on how the Nioght Kings death could have been better:

Arya still kills him but she sneaks up on him because she is wearing a White Walkers face! How cool would that have been to see her peel of a Walkers face as shes knifing him?

Solid episode. Again, the dragon concept is just not consistent though. Last episode Euron kills one with a couple shots from a mile away; this episode a fucking thousand scorpion bows cant manage to even injure the fucking thing while its RIGHT FUCKING THERE. And apparently dragon fire is the strongest fucking thing ever. A thousand tons of fucking stone? One shot of dragon fire sends a whole fucking castle tumbling.
And how fucking useless is the Lannister army? Fuckin' A they suck ass in every battle scene theyre in.

Drogon spent a lot of time out on his own while the other dragons were locked in the pyramid
Drogon knew the streets and got bigger and smarter than the other two.

The writers are rushing to get the season, and series, done in 8 episodes. Everything, and I mean everything, is ending anticlimactically. It seems they're just ending story lines the easiest, and fastest way they can. It's kind of a shitty way to end a great show.

A 15 second clip of Daenerys snapping and going "mad"

Jaime Lannister just bumping into Greyjoy, and having some shitty 45 second fight where Jaime gets skewered but walks it off.

Lord Varys..."oh, you told, you're dead now"

The amazing assassin Arya doesn't get to Cersei, and just ends up running for her life.

Not to mention how disappointingly easy it was to kill the Night King.

Whoever came up with the idea to just end the show quickly in 8 episodes, should be slapped. In my opinion, to end it properly, they would have started winding down the story lines in 10 episodes this season, and ended it completely in 10 episodes next season.

That would take 6 more years the way they get these episodes out. Arya will be an old lady

The tiny little midget guy kills the bitch who flies around on dragons and then claims the Iron Bar Stool for himself.

At this point, it's the only fucking thing that makes any sense.
