I appreciated your joke.

It’s definitely helped that it’s been a while since Twilight finished and he’s been in some fairly prestige films.

I don’t think they can do any worse than the notorious Homecoming poster.

I hated how meta Tyrion’s dialogue was and how it basically made him a mouthpiece for the writers.

I think one of the the Clone Wars tv show’s shortcomings was that it never made any attempt to develop Dooku as a character or give any insight into his past. Instead, he’s just evil and boring. I always thought that was a missed opportunity.

Ellaria and Yara were 100% on board with attacking King’s Landing.

Right, there’s no way anyone could have legitimate issues with the writing. They’re just grumps! 

Is anyone arguing that Dany should be trusted with a kingdom? I didn’t want anyone on the throne and was looking forward to Dany being humbled at some point, yet I don’t feel like the writing earned Varys turning on Dany or the later’s genocide of King’s Landing.

I seriously doubt Martin intends for Dany committing genocide to be a “twist.” It should be an organically developed and clear character arc.

Varys seemed to have died instantly. At point-blank range it just incinerates.

The lesson for Dany was that conquering and ruling are two different things, not that she was wrong for upending their way of life or challenging their moral standards.

Sorry, but moral relativism is bullshit. By your logic, slavery would continue endlessly in Essos because #notallslaveowners.

I’m waiting for a savvy video editor to overlay the audio from this onto a clip of her torching King’s Landing.

Oh fuck this “they were decent to their slaves” apologist nonsense.

But what about the other internet? 

And the only way to rule by fear was to just burn all the civilians? I’d think utterly obliterating the current queen and all her forces in a single day would accomplish the same goal.

If you actually read people’s critiques then you’ll see that their issue is with the journey, not the destination.

HBO offered both the time and money for the showrunners/writers to finish the show properly. But they declined and opted for two truncated seasons.

The witch whose magic killed her baby and rendered her barren. The warlocks who tried to imprison her and her dragons. The slavers who... are LITERALLY SLAVERS. The Harpies who were slaughtering spectators in the arena and were trying to kill her. The Dothraki warlords who were threatening to rape her, among other…

If she’s just gonna start intentionally bombing innocent civilians when she doesn’t need to, then yeah! She has never done anything that even approaches that. You can’t have her “madness” go from like 15 to 100 in the span of two episodes.
