Where did you get that Gendry ran it in minutes? It looked like he ran to the point of exhaustion, like a marathon.
As far as distance goes, I think the group was really close to the wall, like a day’s fast march. That would explain why Gendry could run all the way back and why the (undead) horse carrying Jon could get him back before he froze to death.
Our crowd figured it would take Gendry a full run for 12 or more hours to get back to the wall, 8 to 10 hours for the ravens to get o Dragonstone. Then another 14 to 20 for the dragons to get to Jon. Basically 2 - 3 days. Even at our rushed timeline, they would have been a day late.

You still seem to think that making a localized adaptation exempts something from being whitewashing
An Asian character is turned into a white character. That is the literal definition of whitewashing
No, it’s not whitewashing. It’s only whitewashing if the white characters that are inappropriate to the setting/story are inserted into the film/TV series in leading roles. Matt Damon in the Great Wall, ScarJo in Ghost in the Shell, Tom Cruise in the Last Samurai, etc.
No, when I say this I’m arguing that all ethnicities in America start off on the same foot and no ethnicity gets to have a “leg up” in casting preference.
That’s not what I said. I said the cast itself is appropriate to the setting. That does not imply in any way that other demographics are not appropriate. And since you read it that way, I have to take that as a sign that you’re clearly just trying to argue for the sake of arguing and that you have no intention of…
Honestly, we really need to break up the parties. They have a stranglehold on the country, like two dueling cops, with Corporate America behind the two way mirror nodding approvingly.
Funny how you ignore “CRACKED IT OPEN.” Which is the key to this whole thing...if he never utter those words...then you’d have a point. But he did, and you just selectively left it out to prove a point. A point based on a ridiculous argument because the film was produced by Asian Americans and the cast has a handful…
You frame it that way because the people who give you tens of millions of dollars to play Let’s Pretend and film the results have no way of knowing what’s going to make dump trucks full of money and what’s going to turn into a tax write-off. Telling them it’s going to be like other successful things is like blowing on…
In the case of Stranger Things, it feels like you see a microcosm for why television is on the rise and movies are on a decline. Studios often see movies as big, expensive gambles, which is why they try to stick to tentpoles, franchises, and films that are as sure-bets as possible. Not to mention there are only a…
Someone may have already pointed this out, but ABC got in trouble for the way it characterized the product.
“dissemination in any manner to the public of any information that the disseminator knows to be false and that states or implies that an agricultural food product is not safe for consumption by the public”
They irresponsibly reported on something in a way that intentionally turned the public against something that was never a problem and actually a net positive for society. Its bad journalism and they deserved to be punished for trying to use it for their benefit.
Our legal system is the worst one out there — if you ignore everything that came before it.
This is way off base and as an engineer who is obsessed with efficiency, Disney and ABC were definitely in the wrong and deserved to pay up.
