Oh, come on. Throwing a slave master to a dragon and burning thousands of civilians to death are not equally bad.
Foreshadowing plot points does not equal character development. While Dany going full fascist might be her natural endpoint, the show hadn’t earned it because the arc was incomplete. Hell, the final episode has Tyrion stop the plot to monologue to the audience to tell us how we should feel about Dany. It’s not the…
Those are not the aspects of the show that has appealed to me for years. I don’t like the fantasy genre, really. This show seemed to subvert that so well for 5 seasons. I’m interested in the characters, their choices, and the stakes of the battles. Not the visuals. And, on that note? The showrunners are failing at…
When Euron and Jaime started fighting, I was like, ugh, this is the fight scene NO ONE wanted.
Dany is the only character who conquered cities, forced her vision of a culture upon them, and then abandoned them instead of staying to rule.
I had a thousand ways of saying that but I’ll settle for your pithy description of the episode. This should be engraved as the ultimate and most concise analysis of what GoT was in TV history, at the end.
Dany has always been an imperialist. It’s incidental that her ideals dovetail with our progressive ones.
What are the odds that Jaime would survive the loot train battle with his golden arm and armor in the deep river? Or the odds that all the main stars with incomplete arcs would survive ‘the Long Night’ which was... really, the length of a typical night? Euron was a bigger issue - he somehow survived (what are the…
They patched the show after last episode and nerfed the ballistas.
Credit where it’s due: Emilia Clarke has usually not been much more than a decent actress (though I’ve often defended her from critics who assert she’s bad, which I don’t think she has been), but she has been absolutely wonderful this season, even as the writing for her character has turned into a trainwreck.
Awful episode in terms of narration, fantastic in terms of visuals.
What’s important to note here, is that Ghost is very safe in the North, the REAL North, mind you.
The scorpions were only as accurate and powerful as the plot needed them to be.
Regardless of GRRM’s true plans for her, D&D clearly railroaded Dany into being the Mad Queen from the very beginning.
How could I forget that anecdotes are now real data.
$15hr was decent money... 20 fucking years ago.
Um, none of those kids are 11 years old. But, why let that bother you, since that’s what the OP stated specifically.
The dailymail is biased right wing and more importantly fuck off troll
There are very few good reason to arrest and charge an 11-year-old child with a crime. 99.9% of disciplinary issues with young children should be handled without criminalizing them by getting law enforcement involved.
