Well, re dragons, don't forget she locked up two of the three and abandoned them. Tyrion let them go. My opinions on Dany, already complex, took a turn for the worse when she locked them up.

Yup, her parents were brother & sister,and her dad was the Mad King.She could go madder than a hatter at any time. The cuter and more sympathetic she is now, the more shocking and GRRMish it would be in the end. A friend of mine suggested the possibility that she is the eventual big bad in the end game. Not sure if I would go that far, but I could easily see her going dark. Her dropping that ring was ominous to me.

Even though Arya is my favorite character in the books, I am finding her story arc with the endless staff fights with the waif & Jacquen saying enigmatic things to be kind of boring. I am also looking forward to seeing what Davos does when he finds out about Shireen. I was HORRIFIED that both Summer & Hodor died. I just couldn't :disappoint:

No, I thought it was a bit derivative. I love the episode overall, that was the only complaint I really had as well. Although it must be said the whole emerging naked from the flames impressed the shit out of the Dothraki before, why not again?

Hopefully we get the story I was expecting (both show & books) when Dani first joined the Khalasar. the whole Drogo dying thing was so upsetting. I want to see the Screaming horde in Kings Landing.

Also, yes, congrats SVS. I find it extremely funny that an entire website wrote a clickbait piece on calling odds on characters that weren't in harms way one bit this episode, whilst leaving out Roose, which you were spot on. :p
Spoiler: show
Well, it was pretty obvious. Ramsey tells dead psycho girlfriend hes gonna make Sansa/Theon suffer for what they did to her. Next Scene, Dad tells Ramsey, you played your games with Sansa, get her back. Threatens him with the baby, criticizes everything Ramsey does. Ramsey would be unable to get Myrandas revenge with Daddy looking over his shoulder, Daddy has to go. And I was bummed that they took out the whole Greyjoy Bros plot, so glad to see they brought it back, I hope they don't trash it like they trashed Dorne.

And yeah, climactic scene was anti climactic. They made it super obvious he had warged into Ghost. Plus poor demoralized psycho Melisandre.

This is more book based than show based. There was also a Great Southern Conspiracy theory, which I suppose is still possible in the books, due to changes in the story, it would have to significantly change for it to work on the show.

I think she really believed it. That last scene was about how vulnerable she felt. She was SO sure, and she was SO wrong. That combined with the part where she said, "But I saw him fighting in WInterfell...". She is floored that she was wrong, imo.

I am thinking Ramsey will kill has father next week. Roose basically threatened him with Waldas baby over Ramsey playing his games with Sansa; but he swore to crazy Mirandas corpse that he would make them suffer. None of Ramseys dreams come true with Daddy alive, so Daddy has got to go.

Re: ASOIAF: Game of Thrones

I had problems when they lost Quentyn & Arianne Martell and made Ellaria into some kind of war mongerer. I LOVED Quentyn. I think they trashed the whole Dorne story arc. When Jamie & Bronn went off to rescue Myrcella, I was like WTF?? I 1,000% agree with you re Dorne. That whole thing was shit. It is almost like they treated that whole story arc as a way to kill Myrcella & that was about it. That and burning a 10 y/o girl alive, I was not sure I wanted to come back this year, either, lol. I used to be really active on one of the ASOIAF sub reddits, and "Stannis the Mannis" had a huge following. They lost ALOT of people with that story arc.

So, my question is this: Why hasn't anyone made a GOT mafia yet?
Keys, Splints husband, did at the Piano.I started to here but there are sooo many factions, I was thinking of it as a challenge. I think I would like to see how Timmer & MP do Wheel of Time. The way the Flash played out gave me some ideas, too. Basically I was thinking of it as a fluid alignment game. Almost everyone can be recruited, but only by certain people. Some people can be recruited more than once. Not everyone know who can recruit them, although some might.

I was basing my alignments on the books, not the shows. But I don't know how Spoiler-y that would be. For instance, I had thought to (BOOK SPOILERS)
Spoiler: show
Have Jamie recruitable away from the Lannisters by Brienne, but people who have seen the show but not read the books would totally be confused by that, so it might take away from the central mechanic.
What is nice about it is that you can have as few, or as many, factions as you want, so it can be a small game or a huge one.

Ricochet wrote:Dorne was awful the entire season. Nothing of substance. I would have liked Arianne not being written out instead of I-Don't-Even-Remember-Her-Character-Name Indira Varma sticking around. And the Sand Snakes are bad at acting. That Obara girl was once a 9-year-old or so Oscar nominee (didn't see that movie, though) and now she's chewing her lines.

King's Landing actually holds much better, but mostly because Jonathan Pryce is killing it.

Spoiler: show
The Dorne plot (and I am a fan of both Northern & Southern Conspiracies if you start going to reddit & reading the tinfoil) is so disappointing. Dorne, and Quentyns arc were some of my favorite sections of the book. The way Doran revealed his plans to Arianne (she is a major character! WTF re leaving her out :disappoint: ), everything about it. What they did to Dorne is disappointing to say the least. And removing Jamie from his redemption for no real reason, so he can make a road movie with Bronn (On the Road to Dorne, lol, with the Sand Snakes instead of Dorothy Lamour) and just letting Brienne sit & stew instead is inexplicable to me.

Re: ASOIAF: Game of Thrones

I want to see Stannis die in a fire, tbh. With Melisandre as the kindling. I have thought they both were atrocious ever since what happened with Renly. Plus he's so stuffy.

Or maybe the WW can freeze them to death since they both love fire so much, Lol.

I kind of think Azor Ahai, if he actually exists, is possibly the Westerosi version of Satan. His followers are too interested in burning people alive and birthing evil shadow babies to for him to be otherwise.
Spoiler: show
Stannis may have thus been misled by that hideous witch, but he knew what he was doing to his own daughter was wrong; he sent Davos away, because he knew Davos would stop him. Actually, I hope DAVOS kills Mel, and maybe even Stan too, although that would be too merciful for him, imo.

Re: ASOIAF: Game of Thrones

I have read the books, and am current with the TV show. There are some differences, but the TV show is stand alone good, IMO. The most annoying feature of the books is that I hate having to advance the story with a POV chapter from a character that does not interest me.

The casting is good, too; they picked people who look as I imagined the characters might. Especially Joffrey, lol.

What book are you up to, Epi? While trying to keep this thread spoiler free, I am thinking we should only discuss up to the current season on the TV show, since some are only watching the show. But I don't want to spoil those who are reading and are NOT up to the current season.
