So we are intersectionalising slavery. Cool.

So the reviewer craps on the Spartans for ushering the era of Trump but thinks the Persian side is "a lot more fun"? Guess the fact that the Persians had a army of slaves was something lost on him while enjoying orgies and dictatorships.

Awful

Can't see the forest for the trees huh?

John Oliver is still the liberal's talking parrot? Guess he still needs the ratings.

If the show isn't testing well why should it be on the air? I don't see how it's CBS's fault for putting on the shows that get the most ratings. If anything a case should be made for better writers and directors to spearhead more diverse shows so that they test better in network focus groups. I believe several women…

Clickbait Club strikes again.

MJ would be a god at water polo. Why isn't this trending? I demand justice!

We have a movie called "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter". That means anything is game. You wanna make a movie of Churchill as a disgraced Vatican exorcist? Sure! You wanna make a movie about what Kim Kardashian's life would be like without a sex tape? Alrighty then! What if Michael Jordan played water polo instead of…

Agreed. This is where the books would be nice to have since then aren't limited by episode time and show budget since we aren't going to get full seasons going forward. I guess the only explaination the show gives for the fall of Highgarden was Ollenna coming right out and saying her soldiers weren't really the…

LOL

I think you meant Robb instead of Jon but I understand what you're referencing. Robb had captured and released a Lannister soldier giving him false information about Northern troop size and movement. Which aided their deception. I mentioned that one battle in particular to demonstrate that the sacrifice of one victory…

Oh yeah in hindsight all Tyrion did was buy time for reinforcements to arrive. Not to take away from what he accomplished because it was a massive undertaking.

The way I understand it is that the dragons can't be focused and controlled without Dany being there with them. Which is why they've held back on using them because it puts her at risk. My assumption about the miscalculation of attacking Casterly Rock was that they didn't expect Cersei to sacrifice not only a castle…

Not necessarily. And example would be when Robb Stark sacrificed 2000 men to capture the Kingslayer. Which effectively took the general of the Lannister armies off the board and left command to the Mountain who had not strategy. The same strategy was used last night in order to split the Dany's forces. If you have the…

Oh 100%. This isn't the first time Tyrion has been outplayed in military theater. Remember while he was drinking and whoring his brother was becoming a military legend. Which was why Jamie's defeat by Robb Stark was so shocking.

I think that was one of Ramsay Bolton's (and Lannisters) military strengths was their ruthlessness. Example would be The Battle of the Bastards when Ramsay was willing to rain arrows down on his own troops for victory. I'm sure Dany is well informed with Varys by her side so I wouldn't count Tyrion as uninformed. I…

Casterly Rock only held military significance if the bulk of the Lannister forces were garrisoned there. Grey Worm even openly asked where the rest of the troops were. Cersei sacrificed Casterly Rock, who's significance dissolved once the gold mines where exhausted, to split Dany's forces and isolate the Unsullied.…
