Yeah the first thing I thought of when Obi-Wan was asked to help rescue Leia was that he probably hasn’t fought or trained for 10 years. His Jedi skills are gonna suck.

At least we didn’t have to wait long between “I wonder if Kanan is going to make an appearance in any of the new Star Wars shows” and “OH SHIT IT’S KANAN”

I was also thinking it was like Clone Wars season 8, but since I loved Clone Wars (and only recently watched the entire series over the last couple months) I’m absolutely here for Clone Wars season 8.

On the other hand, any time I see a plastic bag blowing in the wind, I can point at it and say it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, and it usually gets a polite chuckle.

I just saw Midsommar last night, and I don’t recall anyone getting crucified.
(Spoiler warnings on the no-crucifixion I guess.)

Also (very minor spoilers:)
At least some of the protagonists were anthropology students there to study the Swedish rituals, so they felt compelled to stay so they could complete their studies…

There’s the one about the kidnapped kid hallucinating about his rescue. It’s the darkest Onion story I know of.

Dany isn’t there to pay the debt. Yara chose to side with Dany, and lost. The losing side doesn’t usually get what they want.

I still think she should have at least tried.

I imagine after Sansa said the North would be independent, all of the other lords were like “Oh shit! I didn’t realize that was an option!”

I think Pam just kept trying to intentionally cock-block Fleabag and the Priest.

“What she did was the equivalent of the allies rolling into Berlin and then bombing the shit out of it for no reason.”

Or nuking Japan after they offered to surrender.

>>What was supposed to happen? They ring the bell and Dany stops?

That was the plan. The city surrenders and is now hers for the taking. Only a murderous tyrant would slaughter people who surrendered.
Cersei can’t really get credit for ringing the bells since she was just standing there watching. Someone else must have…

I read that Martin said something about he killed off a character that he now realizes he needs to wrap up the story, and he can’t figure out how else to finish it in a satisfactory way.

I spent a few years playing Total War games so I’m basically an expert by now.

I was thinking the same thing- I’m not a medieval warfare expert, but I’ve played enough Total War to know that if you’re being attacked and you have a castle, you should take advantage of the defensive capabilities of that castle.

Putting most of your army out in the field to face a vastly numerically-superior enemy,…

Bronn kills the Lannister brothers, but redeems himself by shooting NK with the crossbow and a dragonglass bolt?

I was a frequent commenter on the Disqus system, and last I checked I was still stuck in the greys. After a while, I gave up and stopped trying to comment.

In my opinion, it really was the switch to Kinja that absolutely killed this site. At least that’s why I stopped coming here- no point in joining a discussion if no…

It’s a comedy/mockumentary, but it doesn’t lean into the comedy so much as say, a Christopher Guest style mockumentary. It’s very funny, but I watch it more for the twists and turns of solving the mystery rather than the jokes.

In Medieval 2, sometimes a priest would have the “secretly female” tag, and that priest may eventually be promoted to a cardinal and then go on to become the Pope. Since the Pope is a general within the Papal States faction, technically there are women generals in that game too. No one complained.

Seems like certain factions in the game(like Rome, Greece, and Carthage) that didn’t have women as generals in real life won’t have women as generals in this game. Other factions that had women as generals in real life will have them in the game, though at a somewhat higher rate than in real life. 

The theme of dogs being rounded up to be killed or exiled to a garbage island might be upsetting to kids.
