Stupid fucking ESPN personalities can’t even maintain a laser focus on sports during a live broadcast?!? Guess what, jackass, nobody wants to hear your Dumb n Dumber reference, just tell us what happened on the play and stop trying to “entertain” the viewers!!!

Yeah, it was pretty clear the only reason the dragon died is because they decided to invent a reason it did. That they came up with such a flimsy excuse is just pure laziness though.

It’s like when daeny landed the dragon in the midst of the walkers... It’s a dragon, flying is like it’s main advantage... what are you doing.

I’ve read all the books (and don’t have much hope GRRM will ever finish) and watched the show. Up until now, I’ve been still (mostly) engaged, finding enough to entertain to make up for a lot of the meandering and odd writing. But the main, the only thing that really hooked me to books and show was the dragons. They

Game of Thrones is to prestige television what Bleach is to manga.

Their magic aim that worked 100% for the first few cold shots (how the hell did they practice shooting at flying targets?) then 0% when a dragon was flying at them head on annoyed me more than any physics defying shenanigans. 

Now I know there are major plot points

I always get mad at myself when I watch a fantasy show and find something incredibly unrealistic (because dragons and magic etc.), but that was my thought watching the episode, semi automatic crossbows which can tear right through ships not to mention dragons seem like an awful large leap from the earlier one that

Right? If I’m Cersei and a mere hundred foot soldiers and a toothless dragon roll up to my incredibly strong, fortified, well staffed front gates and tell me to give up everything because they say pretty please, with sugar on top, when I am all but certain I hold all the advantages and see no reason to believe

If you’re Cersei, what’s the downside to just eliminating them all in front of the gates? The lone dragon is grounded, the fleet was smashed by Euron, and the remainder of the Northern army can’t possibly mount an effective siege with its numbers. The Iron Fleet would be free to sail north and sack White Harbor and

Hey, it’s not like in the planning stages they even knew about the enemy fleet that destroyed their fleet last season...oh...wait...

Hey, wouldn’t it be great if we sent scouts ahead for our ships? No? Okay. Well what about if we get Drogon to flank the enemy ships and burn their sails from behind. No? Okay yeah cool, good talk.

Ugh...I paid someone tons of money to kill my brother and now I have dozens of arrows trained on him so for some reason I won’t have him shot....

I like how happy Dany is while flying her dragons, no need to look down at all...

Dany could have ended Euron right there. We’ve already seen that those dragons can fly really high, & straight up. Those balistas can’t aim straight up, & it probably takes a while to bright them around to shoot aft. SO if she flies high, up over their heads, & comes straight down or from behind, she could light up
