Movies and TV Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8 - Page 46

About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.

I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that...

For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link

Pretty sure Bronn was the one who saved him from Drogon's morning breath, but it kinda looked like Dickon.

Speaking of which, I hope Dickon survived and bends the knee. He's clearly a lot more like Samwell than Randyll would be happy with. It also seemed like he knew turning against the Tyrells was probably a bad idea.

I think you're spot on here. Totally could see the assembled Lannister army survivors bending a knee, led by Dickon. That's the significance of the scene where Dick talks about killing men he used to be friends with -- he probably deep down resents the hell out of the Lannisters.

So how much of the Lannister and Southern forces were just consumed in Dragon fire?

By the way, I expect Jon Snow and Tyrion to ride the dragons at some point. I suspect they have Targaryen blood.

Bran scenes are very interesting given that he's changed, as it was noted by mereen tonight. He sees everything and littlefinger dropped a deuce when Bran said Chaos is a ladder. Probably will end up regretting giving him the dagger. Arya will likely kill him with it.

Well, if Bran can see all, then he already knows who's going to get whacked with the blade and he just made sure he put it in the hands of the person who needed it to make those visions come true.

Littlefinger probably recognized Arya from being Tywins servant, along with the water dance she was doing with Lady Brienne. There was a lot of callbacks in this episode.

I really hate Dany.

Jon: "Yo, those demons we were told about as kids are real. I've seen them. They are coming for us".

Dany: "Pshhh.... those are just legends" /pets her ****ing dragon

Jon: "No, they are really real. Your Hand knows I'm not full of shit."

Tyrion: "He isn't full of shit"

Dany: "IDGAF, bend the knee"

----

Jon: "I want to show you something in this cave" /shows her absolute proof that blue eyed demons are coming to kill everyone"

Dany: "So... about that knee bending"

---

Dany: "My people are starving and my army is fighting in battle. Better blow up the wagons being hauled by the Lannister army. Surely there isn't anything of value there and a far more valuable target than the Lannister army."

---

Dany: "Holy shit... WTF just flew past my dragon's head? I'm gonna kill that shit. How would Rickon Stark stay alive in this situation? Yeah... go in a straight line! Arrows don't work against things going in a straight line... right?

The dragon scenes were amazing.

Aryas scenes were good. However parrying a hand and a half sword with her dinky one is a tough ask. That took me out of it a bit. But over all a good scene.

Still not sure what they're trying to get at with Bran. I mean I think I know with Meera and all that but I just don't GET it. I did giggle at his little mind**** of Littlefinger. I had to rewind it to see what he said but after I did I was happy with the play on Brans part.

Great episode. Not sure how the **** I'm supposed to sleep after all that.

Arya and Brienne's scene might legitimately be one of my favorites in the series. We watched the culmination of literally 7 seasons of training for Arya, where she learned from Ned, Syrio, the Brotherhood without Banners, the Hound, and literally two seasons from the best assassins on the planet (not to mention with blades given to her by two of her brothers). It was a kickass moment in the series.

Probably, which is another interesting point. Cersei's element of surprise in using the scorpion has vanished.

More likely though, Tyrion will probably look to have soldiers search destroy the scorpions before Dany and the dragons descend on the Lannister army.

Yeah. It was cool but carried no weight. There was nothing riding on the fight. Smoking off the frets was far cooler IMO.

LittleFinger = I think it moved! she's a little badass, and I am scheming something up to use her for. Or, maybe, I just want her to believe I am on her side for a clever plan I have yet to conjure up.

Arya = "I see you up there, and trust you not one ****ing bit. Looks like a snake, and smells like a snake, you're a ****ing snake.. and I am watching you."

Sansa = Damn my sis can fight. I'm jealous now to look so weak compared to her.

Definitely. I just wish Arya's path to it would have gone differently.

That whole faceless men, a girl is no one dipshittery was a long and weird journey... and I say that despite really liking the work of Jaqen H'ghar, the actor and character.

It would take plenty of work, but it seems plausible and smart to. Protect the vital areas of your most valuable weapons/companions, yes yes.

So Jaime is sinking, due to the heavy armor...Is Tyrion going to jump in and save him?

Yeah, that was irritating. Yeah, let's not sweep in behind him or anything. Couldn't possible utilize the speed of a dragon versus swinging that slow ass scorpion contraption around in time. Just make a nice loop around to the front and do that same shit again.

lol, don't think Tyrion's been lifting weights enough for that.

Somehow, they will be saved, held as prisoners, and Tyrion will find a way to free them....

Jamie was becoming likable while traveling with Brienne, but is dipping back down now under Cersei's control. Pretty much too late for redemption, to me. Same for Bronn. Funny guy, but he's nothing more than a self-serving merc that I am ready to see burned to ash.

Dany's getting pissed, but she has too many good folks around her to descend into darkness, so to speak. Jorah's on the way too.
