Well, duh! And with an arrow!

...aunt and nephew are a weak genetic connection?

I have to know if you pictured a heart drawn around it.

You know, I’m going to have to disagree with the pharmacy raiding being a “non-necessity.” My husband’s a type 1 diabetic. I’m bipolar. If we weren’t able to grab our meds/insulin/pump supplies/needles in time (which, I hope we’d be able to) or if they got waterlogged when we were trying to get out and up to higher…

It was obvious that Sansa and Ayra set him up. What good would a scene laying that out have done?

I don’t see how they can take six full episodes to defeat the Night King’s army now that it’s in Westeros. I believed there will be a siege of Winterfell once every major character except Cercei has arrived, and maybe two battles?

martin’s talked a little bit about this. he understands hollywood badassery. not only does he write a pretty mean screenplay, one of the themes of the books is that glory and horror are both a part of war. he provides many moments of violent catharsis for his favorite characters.

You should not need an “after segment” to explain something that happened in the show. Everyone else in the world who didn’t watch it on HBO and/or live did not get that after segment. If you can’t make the motivations and story threads clear in-episode, that is a failure of writing.

Hey, I’m all for being super petty and difficult about the actual major shortcomings in GoT! Like the fact the Waif became the terminator at the end of that stupid Braavos arc. By comparison, mechanics of undead dragon flight seems like a pretty esoteric hill to die on.

You mean stopping to stare down at the woman underneath you during sex with a look of worry/confusion is poor sexual technique? I’ll have to re-think some things...

I have problems with everything, something and nothing all at once. I’m the fucking three eyed kinja.

Yes. They definitely needed a better conceived, choreographed and executed sex scene. But what was missing was more than just being able to show her nude.

There was no build up. No passionate kissing, no embraces, disrobing, exploration. They just went from him stepping into her room, to what looked like two hot dogs…

Oh. It was a joke. Because, like, G.R.R.M hasn’t finished the books?

Why does he have holes in his wings btw? He was decomposing, in a frozen lake, for all of 5 minutes. Did the night king bring him back to life and start stabbing a bunch of holes? “Hang on just a few more, trust me this will look sooooooo bad ass...”

Stories ending is fan service and not at all in line with what G.R.R.M imagined.

I do think that the show’s dialogue and micro-plotting have suffered from not having GRRM’s text to work from anymore.

Well, either every author on every blog is a major game of thrones fan who loves to write about nothing else, or GoT articles drive those sweet, ad-revenue producing clicks. I’m not sure which of those things is the case yet, I will let you know what I uncover in the article I am writing for my blog about it, “10…

The chains are now my fanwank for why the zombie army hasn’t made much progress in 4 seasons. They’ve spent the whole time mining and forging oversized chains!

But no one will listen to Gilly’s proof of this because her comment is still pending, er, um, she’s in the greys, sorry, um .... because Sam took the wrong books.

Ultimately, it will require some Bransplaining to have people pay attention to the message.

Many of us are Greyedjoy still. We Do Not Post. That Which Is Kinja’d May Never Reply.
