Teleportation is back this season.
Everything feels so rushed.
Dragonstone is actually close to KL.
This is the stupidest complaint I hear about this show. Do you want to spend 4 episodes on the ****ing road?MBAR said:There are 2 episodes left. You think they are going to spend any meaningful time on the Kings Road? That's a non starter and really not even worth complaining about, honestly.BenFiasco14 said:

Lol
Spoiler for y'all upset with the Ghost departure: him and Tormund will be back.

Here's the thing. This show's first 4-5 seasons were basically faithfully adapted from a well written series of books. The past 2 seasons are them doing their best, but they dont have writers that are nearly as talented, and it's unfortunate. I still enjoy watching the show, but I also can't just act like its not being handled poorly.
Not only that they have to end ***** They can't just keep plodding along like a show such as the Walking Dead. At some point you have to finish the story and its obvious GRRM isn't interested i doing it.Champ Bailey said:Scientific said:
I did enjoy this episode more. If people are complaining it's only because it keeps layering on the fan service & by now this season will be viewed as the worst one.
My only major gripe is the cut off of Jon's revelation. We were all waiting to see what the reaction would be from the girls.
This season is hands down better than season 5 so far.
related questions, Yara only has a few boats. Where did they get a fleet to sail with?aTmAg said:
Where was Yara? Wasn't that her navy that got destroyed?
great episode. are we allowed to admit that episode 3 kind of sucked yet? i mean it was entertaining, but surely everyone sees that this was much better right
Agreed, but a lot of the complaints are far more poorly thought out than the show.PatAg said:

Arya crushed my dreams for her. I wanted her to kill Cersei then go back to Gendry. He likes her the way she is. All murdery and *****
Dany sailed with a huge armada and it looks like most of their forces are coming overland. I don't think the whole Targaryen armada was completely destroyed.PatAg said:related questions, Yara only has a few boats. Where did they get a fleet to sail with?aTmAg said:

Also, anyone else looking forward to who the Prince of Dorne is supposed to be? Are they going to rewrite Quentyn into the show?

Whingefest 2k19, round 2.
I enjoyed the episode. It's crazy, I know.
I liked the episode outside of the way they killed the dragon. I'm concerned at where they're heading
You have the Hound and Arya heading south so Clegane Bowl and Arya will go all Mary Sue and kill Cersei unless Jaime is gonna do it.
Varys wants treason so he's gonna die.
Dany is gonna Mad Queen and bbq Kings Landing ruining her image.
Jon doesn't want the throne
They made the best characters in Ghost & Tormund leave to go North.
I'm concerned we're heading towards a poor ending

Jaime has to kill Cersei for redemption. Can't wait.
I think GRRM wrote himself into a corner and is glad to cash paychecks watching HBO try to get out of it.MBAR said:Not only that they have to end ***** They can't just keep plodding along like a show such as the Walking Dead.

I enjoyed the episode. As far as flanking Euron, I'm just gonna do myself a favor and assume they had set up scorpions at the rear as well. The writing could be better, but that kind of thing just doesn't bother me.
She can go back. Still a wrap up episode after next weeks bloodbath.Lex said:

Didn't they made a comment in passing euron retook the iron islands? So whatever fleet Dany had was what was left in white harborPatAg said:related questions, Yara only has a few boats. Where did they get a fleet to sail with?aTmAg said:

Didn't really appreciate Jamie and brienne boning
Dragon dying was awesome. Dany is insane. Full on mad queen.
Really thought Tyrion was gonna out the baby as being jamie's
Ready for dany to be gone.

Oh you think it's her original armada she crossed with?

Euron has the fleet. Yara retook the iron islands because Euron isn't there and doesn't really give a **** about them because he's playing a bigger game. Who gives a **** about the iron islands right now when you are with the queen of the 7 kingdoms.

Me, too. Maybe she'll change her mind.
Dany is going mad queen.
I hate Cersei SOOOOOO much.
Poor Tormund. Poor Brienne. Poor Gendry.
I think Jamie will surprise us.
I know I'm insane and wrong for thinking it, but ANY chance an injured Rhaegal can swim? Underwater?
I think the "THE DRAGON WAS RIGHT THERE" stuff is silly. Obviously they left the dragon behind them to keep it out of range. I'm sure someone will figure out the math based on screenshots showing that he actually was in range compared to the boat scene, but to me that was clearly the intent of blocking of that scene is that Drogon is close, but not in range of the scorpions.
A bigger question is why didn't we get to see Euron's reaction to Tyrion knowing Cersei was pregnant. That seems like something he shouldn't know from Euron's point of view.

You misheard. They said Yara retook the iron islands for their queen (Dany)
They said Yara retook the islands, which we knew when her and Theon split up. Euron has the vast majority of whats left of the iron fleet, and destroyed Yara's fleet except for a few boats in the battle he captured her.Icecream_Ag said:Didn't they made a comment in passing euron retook the iron islands?

Euron and Cersei's convo about that will happen next episode.
Its HBO, theres no excuse for bad writing. They had two years for this season and not much to show for it. I'm going to finish this out and hope they pull out a miracle here. I think kililng Rhaegar off like he was a mosquito gives me some hope that they have the guts to make some hard choices. They are openly playing with the idea of killing Dany off. So, Dany is dying or Varys is, thats for sure.PatAg said:

I only tuned into this thread after the episode so I don't know if anyone else can relate, but I had a viscerally disgusted reaction to Jamie getting with Brienne. I'm a bad person who doesnt like ugly people and she is grotesque so it pained me to see that, its nasty. I don't know why they do this except to make Jamie killing Cersei more shocking, or his return to her side more shocking. I really hope Jamie doesnt kill Cersei because its too predictable.
The issue with Euron is that on dry land he's sort of a dumbass.bobinator said:

The scorpions were only in front. Rewatch that part.
Just Have Drogon attack the castle walls at night. They can't aim in the dark, but the walls will be perfectly marked with torches. Easy targets
Where was the Golden Company army? Inside KL's walls?
Are there season spoilers on freefolk or just spoilers from this episode? Not down for season spoilers but I need my memes!
I was guessing it was just out of shock, but you would have thought she would have been angry and just attacked.
