Title: A Game of Thrones - best show on TV
Post by: doriancutlerman on April 24, 2012, 02:35:47 PM
Please, tell me my mom and me (I'm setting some of you up for a joke here) aren't the only ones watching this.  Season 2 started a few weeks ago.

I say that, perhaps apart from HBO's earlier co-production with the BBC, "Rome," this show is the best on TV.  "Breaking Bad" is about the only other show that is half as riveting IMNSHO.

Tyrion is by far my favorite character.  If Cersei weren't a piece of ass, she'd probably be my second least-favorite after "King" Marquis de Sade, err, I mean, Joffrey.  But Littlefinger ... that conniving guy is worse than the Queen Regent and just a level below the stupid twisted Joffrey.

I appreciate that the show remained faithful to the books and fan favorite "Ed" Stark lost his head.  HBO productions too often change shit when they're afraid it'll hurt the audience's feelings; e.g., the extensive changes they've made to "True Blood" v. the books upon which that show is based.

Just the same, damn ... Joffrey can't die soon enough :)  

I also hope Khaleesi Targarayen either grows those dragons super-fast or cultivates some serious allies in that city her stragglers enter at the grace of that big, majestic-looking black dude.  I seriously wanted to see Drogo lead his armies to kick serious ass so, in his stead, his exquisitely beautiful wife ... (fapfapfap) will do only too nicely :)

Generally speaking, the lot of the people "leading" these divided kingdoms are a bunch of prideful morons.  They ALL know the Lannisters are a serious threat.  Why not join together to eliminate Tywin and King's Landing, THEN decide who deserves the throne?  For that matter, why not divvy up that dumb-assed Iron Throne and have several rulers, something akin to the King's Council?

P.S. -- Just as people said of Natalie Portman in "The Professional" and Emma Watson in the first Harry Potter movie, I predict little Maisie Williams will be a great, if unique-looking beauty when she comes of age.  I'd say the actress portraying Sansa is already there but I loathe her character to much, I couldn't pull a hair :D

Rome was fantastic.  Why did they only have two seasons?  I will not pay for a network (HBO) just for one good show.  I'll just get Game of Thrones on dvd when it comes out.  Do you like Deadwood?

If they would have just named the characters Bob, Mike, John, Lisa it would be easier to follow but their fucking names are worst than african american names and makes it annoying to watch.

Keep watching m'man.  It becomes second nature in a hurry, especially during the first season.  The second ... eh, heh ... :D  The important thing to remember is that all but one of these seemingly new guys are younger brothers of Ned's best friend, King Robert Baratheon. 

You'll pick it up very quickly, I assure you.

Deadwood was Hbo's best show, but Game of Thrones is pretty good so far, I'd put it in the middle as far as HBO's recent productions.

It is a show I prefer to watch as a giant block rather than week to week, week to week I find I lose track of the characters and some plot points.

LOL, I don't think that new show was meant for straight men to watch.  It's HBO's pathetic attempt at jumping on the bridesmaids bandwagon that people actually think women are funny.  In real life they are all silver spooned jewish girls, each one with hollywood parents.  Fucking sad. 

I forgot to honorably mention one of the funniest shows of all time.  Eastbound and down.  Almost as funny as The increasingly poor decisions of Todd Margaret which was on IFC.

Yes, he becomes King at one point, and rules together with a Queen (who is half White Walker half Shadow Demon) which is revealed later on.
He will also have a huge army of Wildlings (with the Three prominent Warlords Shagga, Dagga and Ragga at the helm) at his disposal, and will have a great battle against the Rainbow Guard which attack King's Landing on Unicorns.

This is quite a ways in the story, so this won't happen until Season 7 or 8 of the series.

None of that has happened, he's just joking.

I would stay away from this thread though if you don't want to be spoiled, a lot of shit goes down in book three particularly and some enterprising young Getbigger may likely spill the beans in this thread.

The first three books of this series are awesome.  The last two have been pretty shitty, they aren't "bad" compared to most of the crap in the genre but basically nothing interesting has happened.  Dany in particular does jack shit from the second book on.

I've REALLY got to watch The Wire someday.  I initially dismissed it since one of its stars was the Kenny "Bricks" Wangler actor from OZ.  I knew that was short-sighted at the time, but meh ... I knew I could always catch up with the show later.

I honestly cannot agree that GOT ranks much below "Rome" or "Deadwood."  A little, perhaps, since those were truly epic.

But "The Sopranos"?  LOL.

It was very good, but a lot of it was extremely ham-fisted (e.g., the whole bit with the ducks and Tony's mother and, later, Tony melting down over Pie-O-My's death and killing guy Ralphie when, in reality, T was still incensed that Ralph brutally murdered a stripper that, deep down, Tony saw Meadow therein).  I loved the show but I thought it became bloated, a bit too big for its britches; it was almost as if its creators realized they had a smash hit on their hands and felt they could do no wrong :\

You know, sort of like George Lucas and Star Wars prequels or THE biggest egomaniac in Hollywood, James Cameron with his chick-flick "Titanic" and "Gone With Wolves In Space," err, I mean, "Avatar" :roll:

I'd have to put GOT ahead of OZ, too.  OZ was great but in a sense, it was a soap opera with naked asses, anal rape and lots of shanking.  Plus, sorry:  I'll give "Thrones" the nod for Roxanne McKee, Lena Headey and that sweet, milky-skinned thing portraying Dany.  Points for Tyrion's secret squeeze, some of Littlefinger's whores and even Stannis' hot witch bitch.  (Give the little girl portraying Arya, Maisie Williams, a couple of years and you'll have nerds wanting to sniff her panties the way Potter fans lusted after Emma Watson as she came of age.  Just saying -- no pedo :D .)

"Carnivale" could have toppled many on the list but its premature cancellation and bad planning (the writers admitted they made things up as they went along) dooms it to a top 10er.

All that shit aside, Tyrion is the man.  I love the way he owned that old fart from the Small Council (anyone recognize him?  He was General Veers in "The Empire Strikes Back" and Donovan in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade").  I also liked how he waltzed into that inbred shit's court and lead Sansa out, with stupid Joffrey looking on in anger and his "dog" Sandor secretly smiling :D

The Sopranos was great

The show didn't get too big, it was so good they had to kill off everyone to ensure there were no more.
They did good stuff and couldn't top it, there's only so much you can do or go so far...


What about "rescue me" ? I thought it was pretty good

He gave an interview a month ago where he said that he has about 200 pages of the 6th book written and expects it to take another 2 years. However, the last time he gave an ETA was on the 5th book and he said six months on that after he finished the fourth....only it ended up being closer to 6 years. And that was with him claiming that he wrote books 4 and 5 at once and pretty much just split them in two.

Great show and books, though.

But Breaking Bad isn't on TV right now :)

I'm not sure I agree, but Breaking Bad is certainly outstanding.  Making great fantasy is probably easier than making something as real and gritty as Walter White's life.

Ice cream and fried chicken, they are.  Both delicious in their own right, but sufficiently different that direct one-upsmanship comparisons are difficult.  In the end you want both :)

I think you'll like it Groink.   All seasons are on Netflix streaming, too.

I just finished Season 2, and I've heard from multiple sources that I ain't seen nuthin' yet.

But, on topic, GoT is really good, but I can't give it any kind of best ever since it's not through two seasons yet.

My favorites recently have been The Shield and Battlestar Galactica.  If you can get over the fact that it's sci-fi, the show was fantastic (You must see the two prequel episodes to  Season 1, though).

I love Family Guy, best show ever.

I watched a documentary on Game of Thrones because it was the only free thing on this hotel TV, and it looked pretty damn good.
I haven't seen any of it, but I already know I hate that Joffrey guy so much, they sure do a good job of casting someone that looks like
a complete douchebag without even opening their mouth.
That white chick (Dany?) , the blonde that has to marry that barbarian guy looks so damn hot, and I love the accent.
I didn't see anything about this Masie girl, but I just googled her, and I was expecting something a hell of a lot different. Emma Watson I could
see becoming hot as hell (and she did), but this Masie girl just looks like a child, and not one that is going to be hot either.

Tv shows are crap as a format.

I don't watch any of these series... smallville, sopranos, entourage, 24 etc. Time consuming and non rewarding, in the end every tv show becomes stale, loses it's original cast or as in 90 % of the cases, they become lazy with the script. Dexter was fun for one season maybe.Prison Break. I got sick somewhere in the third season. The first season or seasons are always better than the inevitable "finale" which all series sort of speeds to.

Lost? Prison Break? Entourage has lost it's appeal as well, it's was the shit when it came out but with the long wait between seasons you expect something bigger and better but get the same rehashed jokes and characters after 6 months and it isn't as fun the second time around. TV shows are crap as a format and in it's form a show is rarely thought out have an ending, that's why the ending is never good. It's like a drug addiction, mindless numbing..

Comedy shows, on the other hand, are completely different. They don't pretend to have a thought out plot, they work because they just make fun of contemporary subjects so they can last through their writers humour and their casts age.

Family guy is good. how i met your mother and big bang theory are good but still they were better when fresh.

South park is an amazing show. i can't think of any other series who gets increasingly better and more brilliant after season 10(!!!)

I've read the first 3 books so even though I knew what was coming that was still really hard to watch...great acting and the buildup of dread when Cat Stark starts to notice all the Freys leaving after the bedding ceremony, then the door closing, then the bands plays "The Rains of Castamere..." and finally Boltons look and her discovery. That was great, well done and brutal. Walder Frey was brilliant as well, Bolton too.

It's episodes like the one last night, which leave you with a jaw-dropping reaction, that have made this show as great as it is.

Before the TV show aired, readers of the books also complained about the Red Wedding.

My only question is whether or not the season finale will be even more amazing than last night's episode.

Not really, it seems it was Stark vs. Lannister but the central theme isn't.  It has always been more about Lannister vs. the rest.

Great episode. Couldn't fucking sleep afterwards though.  Glad they got rid of Robbs wife, she was a made for TV story where in the books his real wife never went to the wedding.

It was brutal to say the least.  I love the storyline of how the Dog keeps protecting the Stark girls.  Some soft spot for them.

I was reading it costs upwards of $5 million per episode to make, about 5 times as much as any other 1 hour show.  HBO almost pulled the plug after season 1 because they actually lost money on the season, but when DVD sales and extra merch brought in huge dollars, they decided to keep it going.

Yeah it sucks next week is the season finale, but then Breaking  Bad, True Blood and Dexter come up, so the summer is still full of great things to watch.

Dexter hasn't been great for a while - it's good, but not spectacular.  True Blood is almost comedy at this point.  BB should be awesome.

Season 3 has imo been CRAZY drawn out and watered down. Kind of like walking dead. So Im glad something finally happened. Hopefully they pick it up for next season after next weeks last episode.

I wonder what kind of route the White Walkers took since they're still not at the wall. And everyone has been able to go to where they met them. And then back. Or J.snow who stayed with the new army for a while and Then walked back and made it to the wall. And still no sight of WW. Well besides the leader which died I guess..

This was done on purpose.  Season 1 was based on book 1, season 2 on book 2, but season three and four will be based off book 3, so it is a little more detailed, not drawn out.  They also skipped ahead to book four and brought that Theon storyline which made no sense since you don't even hear about him in book three.  Book 5 will be interesting because the author purposely shifts gears into more detail but leaves out Tyrion and Jon Snow.  I don't see how HBO can drop an entire character out of the season so they will write them in somehow.

‘Game of Thrones’ Star Michelle Fairley Joins USA’s ‘Suits’

Just days after the much-buzzed about “Red Wedding” episode of HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” actress Michelle Fairley has booked her next gig.

Fairley has signed on for a recurring role on the third season of USA Network’s legal drama “Suits.”

She will play a British entrepreneur named Ava Hessington who runs a successful oil company. When a lawsuit puts the family business in jeopardy, she turns to Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) for help.

Fairley suits up for her first episode in the “Suits” season premiere, airing on July 16.

Tv shows are crap as a format.

I don't watch any of these series... smallville, sopranos, entourage, 24 etc. Time consuming and non rewarding, in the end every tv show becomes stale, loses it's original cast or as in 90 % of the cases, they become lazy with the script. Dexter was fun for one season maybe.Prison Break. I got sick somewhere in the third season. The first season or seasons are always better than the inevitable "finale" which all series sort of speeds to.

Lost? Prison Break? Entourage has lost it's appeal as well, it's was the shit when it came out but with the long wait between seasons you expect something bigger and better but get the same rehashed jokes and characters after 6 months and it isn't as fun the second time around. TV shows are crap as a format and in it's form a show is rarely thought out have an ending, that's why the ending is never good. It's like a drug addiction, mindless numbing..

Comedy shows, on the other hand, are completely different. They don't pretend to have a thought out plot, they work because they just make fun of contemporary subjects so they can last through their writers humour and their casts age.

Family guy is good. how i met your mother and big bang theory are good but still they were better when fresh.

South park is an amazing show. i can't think of any other series who gets increasingly better and more brilliant after season 10(!!!)
 

Watch The Wire, then.  Story arc is tight over the the entire run of the show. Shows what's possible with format in a way that other shows rarely even try much les pull off.

Planning does help usually. It didn't help The Borgias: this third season is the last. It was cancelled even though it is a good show. It just doesn't have many people watching it.

GOT was planned out as well:

http://www.uproxx.com/tv/2013/06/hbo-greenlit-game-of-thrones-for-the-dumbest-of-reasons/

Game of Thrones is an unstoppable, money-making machine for HBO, and it will continue to be, at least until the show catches up to George R.R. Martin when he’s still in the middle of finishing the second sentence of The Winds of Winter. So it’s tough to remember a time when the show was considered a risky pick-up, because if there’s one thing that people hate, it’s TV shows with violence, moral complexities, bad ass female and male characters, dragons, boobs, and penises, all with a devoted built-in audience. HBO had never aired a fantasy series before, with the exception of Sex and the City (no way that many men would devote themselves to Samantha), and at first, the network’s programming president Michael Lombardo was skeptical of the show. Until one glorious day.

“We had this pilot script and we were budgeting it and scratching our head whether we should go ahead and greenlight this,” Lombardo recalls. “And we were trying to figure out the production challenges. We knew it had to be able to stand next to projects in this genre being done on the big screen yet with a more limited budget.” With the decision hanging over him, Lombardo escaped HBO’s Santa Monica office and hit the gym.

As it turned out, [showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss] go to the same gym.

“And I see Dan on one of the bicycles,” Lombardo says. “He was reading this dog-eared copy of the first book. And it had underscores and yellow highlights [on the pages]. And he did not know I saw him — I was standing on the side. And I thought, ‘We’re going to figure this out. These guys breathe this show in a way that doesn’t happen all the time.’ I found that little window into Dan in that quiet moment, that this is what he was doing in his free time. It was such an acknowledgment of everything I suspected about those guys, and it made me determined to figure this thing out.” (Via)

To recap, if Weiss hadn’t gone to the gym that day and called Pizza Hut instead, this never would’ve happened:

That should be the slogan for every gym in America. “Come here, lose weight, get an HBO show greenlit.”

This guy will spend most of his career playing kings and princes. If the looks fit...


http://herocomplex.latimes.com/movies/game-of-thrones-star-richard-madden-to-play-cinderella-prince/#/0

‘Game of Thrones’ star Richard Madden to play ‘Cinderella’ prince

Let’s hope that Richard Madden has an easier time wearing a crown in “Cinderella” than he does in “Game of Thrones.”

Madden, who plays King in the North Robb Stark in the hit HBO series, has been cast as the glass slipper gal’s prince in Disney’s upcoming live-action “Cinderella” film, the studio announced Wednesday.

“Cinderella,” slated for a 2014 release, is set to star “Downton Abbey” actress Lily James as the rags-to-riches heroine and Cate Blanchett as Lady Tremaine, her evil stepmother. Kenneth Branagh is directing, and the screenplay was penned by Aline Brosh McKenna (“The Devil Wears Prada”).

Simon Kinberg, who was recently recruited to write a stand-alone “Star Wars” spinoff film, is a producer on “Cinderella.” Kinberg and McKenna (the two are friends) hatched the plan for a live-action update of the classic fairy tale.

“We were thinking of titles and characters that we hadn’t really seen done in a modern, live-action way, and we were kind of stunned that Cinderella hasn’t really been done that way, as a traditional, loyal telling of the story,” Kinberg told Hero Complex. “She’s a great, iconic character, a character that I loved when I was a kid, and I loved the Disney animated movie.”

Kinberg said that people’s familiarity with the story of Cinderella will work in the film’s favor.

“It’s a funny thing ’cause her name, a little bit like Sherlock Holmes or Star Wars or these other franchises, it’s one of those names that people all around the world know the name and intrinsically know the story,” said Kinberg. “It’s just an identifiable, very rootable underdog story.”

Meanwhile, Madden marches steadily on to the end of “Game of Thrones” Season 3, in which Robb Stark’s position as King in the North grows more and more precarious.

“He’s so honest, and he follows his heart so much,” Madden told Hero Complex contributor Patrick Day last year. “He’s in tragic situations, and there’s so much pressure on him, but, my God, he’s so strong.”

I think it was grandad that off'd Joffrey.  He didn't fight all those wars and killed all those people so that Joff could piss it all away.  Grandad knew that Joffrey would fuck it all up.  Old cunning man had Jamie kill the previous king as well and probably had a hand in Baratheon being killed.

Kind of upset though that a whole episode passed and no titties were shown.

In the book ("A Storm of Swords") the little brother (Tommen; he has not done much on the show) becomes king next and marries the Tyrell wench.  He is a fairly normal child.

There are several major deaths yet to come this season if they continue to follow the book closely :D  In the book (which is the most recent previous season plus this current one on the show), Mormont, Robb Stark, Cat Stark, Joffrey, SPOILERS Balon Grejoy, Ygritte, Obertyn Martell, Shae, Tywin, and Lysa Arryn SPOILERS all die within like the last 50% of the book, it is a bloodbath.

He doesn't die in this book.  I can't say for sure what they will do on the TV show (they are supposedly blending in some events from the 4th and 5th books too).  At the very end of the fifth book ("A Dance With Dragons") he is stabbed many times in a coup by his Night's Watch brothers.  It is left ambiguous as to whether he's actually dead or not.

Joffrey's younger brother has not been shown in a while. I think he was in the keep about to be poisoned by Cersei in the Blackwater episode in case Stannis' troops took King's Landing. By the time that character has a part to play again it will probably be a more grown up actor.

Gendry is the last of Robert Baratheon's bastards. Ser Davos helped him escape from Stannis and Melisandre.

The crown doesn't transfer to non blood.  Hence why Queen Elizabeth is the Queen but Philip is not a King.  She is blood, not him. 

Queen Elizabeth passed a law last year that overrode an old one where the brother of the king would be next in line if the King didn't have a son but daughter to allow the daughter to get it and that is because she didn't want Harry to be King because Harry is not blood.  She knows he's a bastard child of some fling Princess Diana had.

GAME OF THRONES’ Latest Episode Got Pirated…Like, A LOT

Well, you’ve done it again, Game of Thrones: you broke the Internet. Or rather, the Internet’s busiest pirates broke it in the name of watching Sunday night’s episode by any means necessary. The most illegally downloaded show ever just beat its own record (set by its third season finale episode) thanks to “The Lion and The Rose,” which saw — Spoiler Alert! Spoiler Alert! — King Joffrey of House Brat-atheon (har har har) get himself good and murdered.

And, naturally, the dispatch of the most hated villain in television history (a lofty title but we feel comfortable handing it thusly) sent the web’s fiercest torrenters into a veritable feeding frenzy; we’re sure it’s because people just wanted to see how their fantasy fantasy league players were doing. Mere hours after the Purple Wedding took place, the episode was up online and being shared by 193,418 people. According to The Hollywood Reporter, “at the time of the record torrent, 145,594 had a complete copy and continued to upload, while 47,824 were still downloading the file.” BitTorrent, one of the most popular torrent platforms on the web, explained that this bested their current record-holder, the previous season of Game of Thrones‘ finale, which saw 171,572 users sharing the episode online and was downloaded approximately 1.5 million people.

Serious question, though: why did everyone insist on stealing it when HBO has already openly admitted to not caring about HBO Go password sharing? (When are you going to allow people subscription options for the Go platform as a standalone, HBO? Eh?) Surely connection to an HBO Go account must be fewer degrees than it takes to get to Kevin Bacon, right?

For some the login password that is used to access the account in general for whatever provider(Comcast, dish, directtv) that subscribes to HBO can allow it. If you have HBO and don't use the provider's site, you may not realize that you can use it on whatever laptop, tablet, or smartphone that meets the minimum streaming requirements.

That is: I click on the HBO GO link and sign in with the Comcast username and password. Then I can watch whatever on the HBO GO site.
 
A lot of people would not give out a password that would let whoever has it change what channels you pay for.

Somebody, Please, Give These GAME OF THRONES Pick-Up Lines a Whirl

Ever wondered how to pick up the Lannister of your dreams? Does that Wilding make your heart sing? Want to get down and Dorne-y with a bisexual prince? Well, we’ve finally got the answer to a question no one has ever thought to ask George R.R. Martin: how, exactly, does one properly hit on a man, woman, or Hodor from The Realm? Luckily, Imgur user GarthAlgar‘s pick-up lines from the world of Westeros (and beyond!) are sure to, in the very least, elicit a giggle or two from any Game of Thrones fan you attempt to use them on, at least before they ultimately roll their eyes and move on — because isn’t that how all pick-up lines work?

The hilariously apt lines include something for everyone — even you lovelorn Hodors out there. Keep on Hodoring! — and might even manage to nab you the wench or warrior of your dreams. Featuring (mostly) photos from season four of the series, there may be some minor spoilers for any of you not yet caught up. (We know: we’re sick of hypersensitive spoiler warnings, too, but: Internet.)

I'm not sure what they are doing with Cersei either.  Seem to be trying to make her a character that the audience will empathize with vs. in the books she's basically a despicable bitch.

This is interesting to me because Martin has supposedly shared with the show's creators the broad strokes of how the story will end.

As a result of reading some of these comments, I read THE GAME OF THRONES over a period of 4 days  and then ran across Season 1 at Target for a total price of $10, so I bought it and  am now watching it to see how it adheres to the book.

Surprised to see that I know one of the principal characters who is doing a damn good job acting as one of the principal characters (DRAGO???) but have not run into him since he got that great acting role.

Dumb or not, I think that this is a great show and plan on reading all the books and eventually watching all the episodes.

Big surprise is that the author knocks off those individuals whom you think will be the principal characters throughout the entire story-line.

And how the hell will King Joffrey get knocked off? It's somewhat evident that he will be killed during the series.

The first season follows the first book almost to a T if I remember right (haven't watched or read either in some time).

As a result of reading some of these comments, I read THE GAME OF THRONES over a period of 4 days  and then ran across Season 1 at Target for a total price of $10, so I bought it and  am now watching it to see how it adheres to the book.

Surprised to see that I know one of the principal characters who is doing a damn good job acting as one of the principal characters (DRAGO???) but have not run into him since he got that great acting role.

Dumb or not, I think that this is a great show and plan on reading all the books and eventually watching all the episodes.

Big surprise is that the author knocks off those individuals whom you think will be the principal characters throughout the entire story-line.

Big interest is .... Will those young dragons be of importance in future episodes?

And how the hell will King Joffrey get knocked off? It's somewhat evident that he will be killed during the series.

In the previews at the beginning of the season I remember seeing Prince Oberon fighting spear in hand which has not happened yet. I am expecting him to champion like Bronn did at the Aerie.

Oberyn will fight for Midget against Cerseis Champion, the HUGE Mountain.

The Mountain

Since Cersei has Mountain, Trial by Combat usually means Death.

Will Tyrion survive this? ;)
This is going to be awesome. I was wondering when the Strongman was going to make his mark. He most likely die. He will be too slow for the horny guy.

Spoiler:

The bodybuilder (Cercei's champion) kills the health-look prince (Tyrion's champion) and later dies from the poison on the prince's "spear" :D  Jaime and Varys free Tyrion from prison before he can be executed.  Tyrion escapes on a boat to Pentos and kills Shae and Tywin on his way out.

That is all in the book so I don't know if they'll do it the same on the show.

No way, Bjornson is way more intimidating and the second strongest man in the world. He is bigger and quicker than any other actor casted for that role and is said to have moved with the sword better than any of the other mountains.

The show will likely wrap up before the books ever get done.  Martin is a notoriously slow writer. 

As for the Oberyn/Mountain fight, well, lets just say there will be a great gnashing of teeth.

How the hell are they going to film Cersei's penance walk?

Holly Shit , what an ending  :o

What a fucking ending indeed.

Can an argument be made that both champions died in combat, so technically the God's did not favor any one particular decision?

They said that the purpose of this match was to see which outcome the God's favored, but the result leaves it a bit vague.

In the book the bodybuilder does not die right away.

Actually his fate is somewhat ambiguous (doesn't say if he's dead or not).

Actually, Mountain lived (he's just taking a nap, collapsed from his injuries, but was still alive at the time),
but dies later from the Poison on Oberyns Snake-like Spear. (He ain't called The Red Viper for nothing!)

So during that "Trial of Combat", only Oberyn died, Mountain just fainted/collapsed.

Thus, no Draw of Peace.

Agreed.

It's hard to get shocked anymore, but this show seems to be able to continue to do it.

SPOILER:

We've seen brutality, but squeezing a man's skull to pieces was a new one....great ending.  But I really liked the Oberyn character, so that sucks.

“Prince Oberyn had circled behind him. ‘ELIA OF DORNE!‘ he shouted. Ser Gregor started to turn, but too slow and too late. The spearhead went through the back of the knee this time, through the layers of chain and leather between the plates on thigh and calf. The Mountain reeled, swayed, then collapsed face first on the ground. His huge sword went flying from his hand. Slowly, ponderously, he rolled onto his back.”

“Clegane’s hand shot up and grabbed the Dornishman behind the knee. … Gregor’s hand tightened and twisted, yanking the Dornishman down on top of him. They wrestled in the dust and blood, the broken spear wobbling back and forth. Tyrion saw with horror that the Mountain had wrapped one huge arm around the prince, drawing him tight against his chest, like a lover.”

With that, Clegane makes his confession:

“‘Elia of Dorne,’ they all heard Ser Gregor say, when they were close enough to kiss. His deep voice boomed within the helm. ‘I killed her screaming whelp.’ He thrust his free hand into Oberyn’s unprotected face, pushing steel fingers into his eyes. ‘Then I raped her.’

Clegane slammed his fist into the Dornishman’s mouth, making splinters of his teeth. ‘Then I smashed her f—ing head in. Like this.’
As he drew back his huge fist, the blood on his gauntlet seemed to smoke in the cold dawn air. There was a sickening crunch.”


On seeing the Red Viper’s demise, Ellaria Sand screams in horror, and Tyrion throws up his glorious breakfast.

“I put my life in the Red Viper’s hands, and he dropped it. When he remembered, too late, that snakes had no hands, Tyrion began to laugh hysterically.”

The skull crush is not so new. It usually happens off screen in movies with ratings below R. The most recent I can think of was Star Trek: Into Darkness when Carol is screaming when it is happening to her father.

I agree but I think the last man standing (even though it looks as though he died to) is the victor.

Anyone figure out the theme of this show.  Anyone in love ends up having the other person die.  Seems it sucks to love or be loved back in the 7 kingdoms.  Whores reign supreme.  Prince Bisexual who ended up being a bo staff master got too cocky for his own loin cloths.

Peter Dinklage’s mullet is further proof he has a cool you can’t teach

Peter Dinklage is perhaps the biggest star on HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones’ because he exudes a je ne sais quoi never before seen on TV.

Today we found out that the roots of being awesome go back many years with ‘ol Dinky, as the folks over at Reddit found his yearbook photo from the Delbarton Class of 1987…and it’s more GLORIOUS than we ever could have imagined.

During a recent strength competition, former Iceland basketball player and strongman competitor Hafthor Julius Bjornsson got to show off his insane strength by casually deadlifting 994 pounds. The giant 6′ 9″, 420-pound human being played the part of Gregor Clegane (a.k.a. “The Mountain”) on Game of Thrones.

The Definitive Game Of Thrones Viewers' Guide

GWENDOLINE CHRISTIE
Age: 36
Place of birth: Worthing, Sussex
Character name: Brienne Of Tarth

What to watch outside of Westeros: Her Patrick Wolf performances

You’ll be hard-pressed to spot Christie’s appearances in Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus, where she plays “Classy Shopper #2”, or The Zero Theorem, where she can be seen in a “street commercial”, so to avoid straining your eyes, stick to her on-stage performances with perennially befeathered pop peacock Patrick Wolf. In a former life, Christie was a semi-professional gymnast, but a spine injury pushed her into acting, and thence to playing the queen in a Barbican Theatre production of Cymbeline in 2007 and Lucifer at Manchester’s Royal Exchange Theatre in 2010. Come December, you’ll see her in The Hunger Hames: Mockingjay – Part 1, where hopefully she’ll be using her gymastery to teach Jennifer Lawrence how to fall over less often.

At first I was annoyed by the midget but it didn't take long before he became my favorite character on the show.  Goes to show you not to  judge others on their appearances.

Peter Dinklage’s mullet is further proof he has a cool you can’t teach

Peter Dinklage is perhaps the biggest star on HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones’ because he exudes a je ne sais quoi never before seen on TV.

Today we found out that the roots of being awesome go back many years with ‘ol Dinky, as the folks over at Reddit found his yearbook photo from the Delbarton Class of 1987…and it’s more GLORIOUS than we ever could have imagined.

HBO will eventually deviate completely from the books.  They can't run this series forever and Martin is taking his sweet time writing another book if he ever does.  They can't just end the series 3 years from now open ended.  HBO will have ot tie up some stories that Martin left floating.

Yes they could... Think about it. End the series where the books are now. Wait a year or two... He finishes the books. You reopen the series again and it will be bigger then now. You get 2 5-6 years series out of it instead of one. It's all about money and ratings... That would be the biggest money maker by far.

The ultimate cliff hanger.

Btw I was really wishing they changed this part of the story and Oberyn won... He could have killed Tywin... Same result really. I knew it was coming but it still sucked. No homo for liking the bi sexual guy.

Never had a problem with this, I guess I just treat them almost like 2 different stories

HBO already has deviated some from the books----I knew they would going into though so it doesn't bother me. Well, as long as they don't bring out clowns with machine guns

The Sopranos Is No Longer the Biggest HBO Show of All Time

Out with the mobsters, and in with the dragons!

For years, the Emmy award-winning drama The Soprano 's reigned supreme as the most-watched king of HBO's series, however now it's time for a new drama to claim the throne. [Yeah, we went there.]

The premium cable network announced Thursday that Game of Thrones has officially surpassed The Sopranos as the most popular series in HBO's history. It seems that people just can't get enough of all the mind-blowing, heart-wrenching, and WTF moments in Westeros.

On average, George R.R. Martin 's television adaptation snags and average of 18.4 million viewers a week—officially exceeding the previous record set by the 2002 season of The Sopranos, which had an average gross audience of 18.2 million viewers per episode.

Game of Thrones has already had a significant increase in viewers in just the past year alone. Season three of the critically-acclaimed drama earned an average audience of 14.4 million viewers each week.

With only two new episodes left in season four, fans are waiting with bated breath to discover what's next for their favorite characters—particularly Tyrion, who's fate changed dramatically at the end of last Sunday's jaw-dropping hour.

The Mountain dressed as The Hulk for a 3-year-old’s birthday because he’s actually a good dude

Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson spent a good amount of time getting his body painted for the surprise. The kid was scared at first, because well, who wouldn’t be. A giant man painted in green that crushes skulls isn’t your garden variety super hero. But in the end, it all worked out. I think. Still can’t get that damn scene outta my head. But I digress.

beware spoilers

http://www.makinggameofthrones.com/production-diary/2014/6/3/pedro-pascal-explains-the-ecstasy-of-oberyn-martell

Pedro Pascal Explains the Ecstasy of Oberyn Martell

In light of Sunday's crushing trial by combat, HBO.com connected with Pedro Pascal, the actor behind Oberyn Martell. Pascal shares his analysis of the scene ("cathartic"), what it was like to hold a replica of his own skull, and his take on Oberyn's relationships with the women in his life.

HBO: At what point did you learn Oberyn's fate?

Pedro Pascal: I was told right off the bat. It was in the description of the character arc when I auditioned for the part. I didn't know how he died, until I met [series creators] David Benioff and Dan Weiss in Belfast. They mentioned the crushing of my head in three steps: first the teeth, then the eyes, and finally the entire melon head. My first thought was, "Hopefully I'll be able to compete for a top spot for the most gruesome death on 'Game of Thrones,' " which is saying a lot.

HBO: Have you seen the finished scene?

Pedro Pascal: I haven't, but I can't imagine. [This interview took place before the episode aired.] I have to watch it in time with everyone else. I worry for my family; I really do.

HBO: As gruesome as it is, it looks authentic. Did they make a cast of your head?

Pedro Pascal: They made a cast of my head from the shoulders up and dressed it with facial hair and the expression of violent agony.

HBO: Have you seen it?

Pedro Pascal: Yes! They caught me staring at my head on set. We never get a chance to see ourselves three-dimensionally, and it's totally different. Maybe there was a little narcissism or just the fascination of seeing myself in 360 degrees. I was like, "Holy sh*t. I really look like my dad."

HBO: How much training did you have with the spear?

Pedro Pascal: HBO and 'Game of Thrones' put me in training with a master of wushu, an acrobatic martial arts. People train their entire lives to master this skill, so in a couple of weeks Master Hu could only show me the basics.

HBO: What was the most challenging thing about it?

Pedro Pascal: Everything. Mostly working with a spear that was a foot taller than me. There was sort of a helicopter-propeller move with the spear that I wanted to achieve the "woosh woosh woosh" of. I bought a curtain rod from Home Depot and practiced in my apartment because I was too shy to do it in public.

HBO: What was it like to film the combat scene? Can you explain Oberyn's decisions?

Pedro Pascal: It was very challenging because there was a physical aspect of it – which was the most demanding work that I've ever done – but also Oberyn is climaxing emotionally. Those two things synchronize themselves really beautifully.

I had a fascinating conversation with Lena Headey on set where we discussed the entire arc of the character. Oberyn is desperate to hear the Mountain make his confession. Although it's a violently tragic end, he does ultimately hear the words. There is this bittersweet ecstasy in the idea of delivering oneself to one's own end. It's a very cathartic moment.

HBO: In a previous episode, Oberyn is writing a poem for his daughter. Have you thought through his life in Dorne?

Pedro Pascal: I see him as an extremely contemporary, progressive and loving father. I think it's so suitable that he had nothing but daughters to raise. He doesn't shape ideas based on old conventions so his daughters are not limited by backwards, medieval morality.

HBO: He's very emotionally intelligent.

Pedro Pascal: I think there's a depth in the way that Oberyn perceives the world and the way he lives in it. I think there's a lot of woman inside of Oberyn, which attributes to his strength.

HBO: Can you explain what you mean by "a lot of woman"?

Pedro Pascal: Perceptiveness. Intelligence. In the world of 'Game of Thrones,' which can harshly reflect some of the darker elements of our reality, I would argue that women are often forced to be smarter and more in touch with themselves because their circumstances are so ruled by men. Women's survival skills kick in a bit earlier.



HBO: Would you say that Oberyn is a feminist?

Pedro Pascal: Absolutely. Without choosing to be. It's just intrinsic and logical to him. Ellaria Sand is the love of his life because she is his equal, if not his superior, in certain ways. That's part of what makes him such a fierce man because he knows who to take his lead from.

HBO: How do you hope that fans remember Oberyn?

Pedro Pascal: As a lover and a fighter. As a fun character who ushered in something new to King's Landing and stirred some sh*t up: Big in, big out.

HBO: Fans are bound to be brokenhearted.

Pedro Pascal: As am I. As I have been all along.

HBO: Would you like to see Oberyn's death avenged?

Pedro Pascal: F*ck yeah.

Think Fast

HBO: If you were on trial, what would your crime be?

Pedro Pascal: Oberyn would probably go a little too high up the chain in his sexual escapades. He'd probably sleep with the king's wife or the queen's husband.

HBO: You’re invited to a GOT wedding. Would you accept or decline?

Pedro Pascal: I accept. Any opportunity to go hand-in-hand with Ellaria, because there's always an opportunity to get laid at the wedding.

HBO: The Hound says he’d go to Braavos next. Where would you reinvent yourself?

Pedro Pascal: I would stick around King's Landing. There's a nice brothel room open to the ocean.

HBO: What would you name your sword?

Pedro Pascal: Sammy the Sand Snake

Learn How to Speak Conversational Dothraki

Once you get out of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros and across the narrow sea, different languages start to come into the picture. The fictional world feels richer and more realistic because of the presence of such tongues as Dothraki and High Valyrian. David J. Peterson crafted the Dothraki words for Game of Thrones, and he’s working with Living Language to create books, audio tools, and even an app so you can learn to speak like a Khaleesi in the comfort of your living room.

This is the real deal, not like the Muzzy parody we featured a few months ago. Living Language is a company that offers legit programs to teach a host of non-fictional languages. As far as I can tell, Dothraki is the first time they’re dipping into the fictional realm. They’re taking it seriously by offering different access points at varying price levels.

For only $4, you can download a Dothraki Companion App. They call this the Dothraki learning experience on the go (oh, so many jokes can be made); it’s more of a practice tool to go with the book or online course. Just the app comes packed with a pronunciation guide, conversational dialogue, and interactive games. For $20, you’ll get a Dothraki book and CD package with written exercise questions, culture notes, vocabulary words, and grammar examples.

If you want to lead a khalasar though, you can spend $30 and go through the online course. It has five progressive lessons, hundreds of phrases, and an extensive pronunciation guide. You can pre-order it and the book and CD package at Living Language. Go ahead and download a sample page from a lesson while you’re there.

The Wall battle was interesting to say the least.  All of a sudden there's a wooly mamoth and two giant sasquwatches?  Where the fuck did they come from and why only two?  Kind of an odd battle.  It was right in the heat of things then just stopped.  Over.  I was wondering if I missed something.  There's so much content in the books and HBO trying their hardest to jam in as much as they can seems a little jagged at times.  Why not make 16 episodes instead of 12 and tell the story a little cleaner?

Breaking Westerosi News: We’ve Finally Found Gendry (Sorta)!

The fourth* season of Game of Thrones left us with many a question, but none so concerning to us as that of the fate of one of our favorite Westerosi bastards, Gendry. He of the Baratheon bloodline, so young and virile and handsome and… stuff. Where was he? We hadn’t seen him at all this season: what gives? What happened after the Onion Knight Ser Davos shipped the lad off to sea? With nothing but the clothes on his back, the dream of a life less terrifying, and the oars in his hands? Where did he go? GENDRY WHERE DID YOU GO?!

Well, we finally have our answer thanks to the actor formally known as Joe Dempsie (he’s forever the bastard Gendry in our hearts) and this highly informative tweet:


Still rowin’…#GoT

— Joe Dempsie (@joedempsie) June 18, 2014

 

So there you have it, folks. Mystery hilariously solved. (Sorta.) Well played, Mr. Dempsie, well played. Although we’re curious where the heck in the Realm you are if you’ve been rowing for, what, a year? Forget Westeros and Essos (and probably even Sothoryos) — we bet he’s likely discovered Ulthos at this point. Has our wee Gendry gone from bastard boy to George R.R. Martin’s version of Columbus? Only time will tell.

In August:

http://www.nerdist.com/2014/06/an-all-new-trailer-for-tnts-legends-has-arrived/

An All New Trailer for TNT’s LEGENDS Has Arrived

Much of it may be getting kept close to the chest for the moment, but from what we have seen of the new Sean Bean-led TNT drama Legends, from 24 and Homeland’s Howard Gordon, has been solid. Above all else, it will be nice to have Ned Stark back on our television screens, this time with a semi-automatic! Before the show premieres in August, TNT has released an all new, atmosphere focused trailer for the new series courtesy of The Hollywood Reporter.

For the uninitiated, the new action series, according to The Hollywood Reporter, “centers on undercover agent Martin Odum (Sean Bean), who works for the FBI’s Deep Cover Operations (DCO) division. Martin can transform himself into a completely different person for each job, but he begins to question his own identity when a mysterious stranger suggests Martin isn’t the man he believes himself to be.”

So some trippy Jason Bourne s**t seems to be what’s going down on this series, and that’s fine with us because if there’s one thing we action fans love with our gunplay, it’s a crisis of identity. Also, if that plot description means Bean will be portraying himself completely differently every episode Alias style, we’re totally cool with that too.

Currently there’s no word on how many times Bean’s character is set to die during the course of the series.

Please, tell me my mom and me (I'm setting some of you up for a joke here) aren't the only ones watching this.  Season 2 started a few weeks ago.

I say that, perhaps apart from HBO's earlier co-production with the BBC, "Rome," this show is the best on TV.  "Breaking Bad" is about the only other show that is half as riveting IMNSHO.

Tyrion is by far my favorite character.  If Cersei weren't a piece of ass, she'd probably be my second least-favorite after "King" Marquis de Sade, err, I mean, Joffrey.  But Littlefinger ... that conniving guy is worse than the Queen Regent and just a level below the stupid twisted Joffrey.

I appreciate that the show remained faithful to the books and fan favorite "Ed" Stark lost his head.  HBO productions too often change shit when they're afraid it'll hurt the audience's feelings; e.g., the extensive changes they've made to "True Blood" v. the books upon which that show is based.

Just the same, damn ... Joffrey can't die soon enough :)  

I also hope Khaleesi Targarayen either grows those dragons super-fast or cultivates some serious allies in that city her stragglers enter at the grace of that big, majestic-looking black dude.  I seriously wanted to see Drogo lead his armies to kick serious ass so, in his stead, his exquisitely beautiful wife ... (fapfapfap) will do only too nicely :)

Generally speaking, the lot of the people "leading" these divided kingdoms are a bunch of prideful morons.  They ALL know the Lannisters are a serious threat.  Why not join together to eliminate Tywin and King's Landing, THEN decide who deserves the throne?  For that matter, why not divvy up that dumb-assed Iron Throne and have several rulers, something akin to the King's Council?

P.S. -- Just as people said of Natalie Portman in "The Professional" and Emma Watson in the first Harry Potter movie, I predict little Maisie Williams will be a great, if unique-looking beauty when she comes of age.  I'd say the actress portraying Sansa is already there but I loathe her character to much, I couldn't pull a hair :D



I know Game of Thrones is popular but I never watched it.

FYI, my mom is 81 and never saw it either.

Wallace the rabbit has gone from being an incredibly accommodating bunny to acting as a mad king and has demanded that his human provide him with a throne. Following the mandate, his dedicated human built a Game of Thrones-style Iron Throne using carrots and cardboard.


It is beginning to feel like spring, but winter is coming. Wallace’s internet fame has completely gone to his head and now he demands a throne. Will his rule be just, or will his hunger for power be his downfall?

And Now, a GAME OF THRONES Iron Throne Made of Dildos [NSFW]

http://nerdist.com/and-now-a-game-of-thrones-iron-throne-made-of-dildos/

Why yes: that is a giant, rubberized version of Game of Thrones‘ Iron Throne made entirely of black dildos — how did you know and what gave it away? Was it all the power it wielded with its mere presence? Its girth? The way it draws the eye in and makes you swear up, down, left, right, and sideways that you will never go back to sitting on another replica chair ever again? Or maybe it was simply the fact that the video was called “Game of Bones” and, well, I mean what else could this behemoth be, right?

Exxxactly.

So yeah. Bondara — one of the United Kingdom’s most popular online sex toy destinations — decided one day to give the Internet a gift (there is so much pun potential here. Just like SO. MANY. PUNS.), wrangling 200 of their finest dildos and a cavalcade of shameless artisans to construct the beast in a mere 24 hours. Something tells us Tyrion would be far keener to sit on THIS particular throne than the actual Iron Throne. After all, he is the god of tits and wine. And this throne doesn’t stab back (well…) in a way that destroys an entire family and kingdom in one fell swoop.

And exciting bonus for all our UK Nerds out there — there’s a giveaway going on right now where you could WIN THIS EXTREMELY SFW THRONE for your very own, Littlefinger-inspired home.

So, OK, now that we all got through that like adults, let’s go nuts with the dirty punnery in the comments, shall we? After all — in the immortal words of a one Dan “Casey” Snow, “If you thought this would have a happy ending, you clearly haven’t — oh wait, no, it totally will.”

Big GOT fan here, but when the last season ended, I went exploring other shows on netflix.

And to be honest, i enjoyed Sons of Anarchy more - just even more ridiculous & entertaining. SOA's "Laying Pipe" is as good an episode as "Mountain and the Viper"

Big GOT fan here, but when the last season ended, I went exploring other shows on netflix.

And to be honest, i enjoyed Sons of Anarchy more - just even more ridiculous & entertaining. SOA's "Laying Pipe" is as good an episode as "Mountain and the Viper"

Breaking Bad, slow starter - but it builds and builds nicely. Better Call Saul is also really cleverly written and carrying the mantle on.





SOA had the worst ending, ever

One of my brothers really enjoyed that show but said the final season was a virtual turd with far too much glorified violence.  I have never watched it.  Then again I have never watched the subject of this thread.  It just doesn't appeal to me and while I enjoyed the Lord of the Rings and to a far lesser extent, The Hobbit films, the addition of a midgie in this series is just too damn absurd for me to ever want to watch it.

Heh, but the little dude is good.  Best midget actor I can think of, really. 

I think an obviously smart fella like you would indeed enjoy it if you gave it, oh, say two episodes.  I like it better than LOTR, and while those were excellent movies, GOT seems to have a few things that Tolkien's work lack; e.g., character development.  I'm not saying LOTR's characters stunk, but I (for one) care a lot more about what happens to a majority of the folks in Westeros, and that includes the nastiest, most sociopathic bad guys.

I really reckon once you learned a bit about Tyrion's (the midget's) past, you might change your mind.  But like it or not, eh, that's cool  8)

I read an article about how GOT uses the nude scenes to actually develop the plot where other shows just have nude scenes to show tits and ASS.  HBO actually tries to have dialogue that important to the storyline while they show snatch and tits.

This season deviates completely from the books.  The midget is not even in the story, actually the majority of the main characters are not in the story at this point.  Martin has a note in the book that he is going to come back to those characters but deviate in a different direction.  HBO just can't all of a sudden drop the majority of actors for a season so they decided to rewrite a lot of the storylines.  Not a fan of this.  I can live without some of the characters knowing it's closer to the book.

Endured all the way through to Season 2 or 3 and gave up halfway through. No real depth to the storyline nor is the world rendered fully. Half fantasy half real. At times it feels like a medieval story and the next moment there's Dragons flying around.

Watched 1 & 2 but there was too much intrigue/ not enough happening.  Fans say something does, later.  Whatever, not reading 18 pages. 

I liked how that midget kept turning up in movies tho, playing parts that had nothing to do with being a midget and could have been played by anyone.  I think he was in an X Men.  Some genius research guy, possessing an essential secret formula and the world hangs in the balance.  And who, as it so happens, is also a Little Person.

Other than that, not much kept me interested. Might give the books a whirl soon.

Meet The Hot Body Double For Daenerys Targaryen On ‘Game Of Thrones’ Who’s Setting Off A Game Of Boners In My Pants

http://www.brobible.com/life/article/body-double-daenerys-targaryen/

Rosie Mac is an 18-year-old body double for Emilia Clarke (aka Daenerys Targaryen) who comes from Newquay in Cornwall. While up until now she hasn’t had a lead role in Game of Thrones all of that is about to change, since according to Metro the producers of the hit series have become so enamored with her that they’ve made a part just for her in the show.

The reason why it sucks so much is that it has deviated a lot from the books.  The book its based on took a big side trip, at the start Wells states that he is going to focus on other characters and will come back to the others in the next book.  This leaves HBO in a situation where they'd have to sideline most of the cast for a season which would be odd so they wrote in this new story of the midget going to see Kaleesi, the Sansa Marrying Bolton and so on.  This last week with Ser beresten getting killed at the end was another HBO ism.  They are fucking up the books.

I hope you're right.

I really want to see Dragons flying around while burning random people and sheep. What would also be nice is if Bran Stark works his magic and manages to control one of those dragons the way he does with wolves and the ogre.

I'd also like the wildlings and Stannis' army to come together to crush some white walkers and smash Bolton's army.

Not to mention that it's about time for that faceless god guy to finalize "the girl's" training.

And finally, I'd also like Theon Greyjoy to grow some balls, since he can't grow anything else down there. That standing there and watching the Bolton bastard take the Stark girl for a spin is not cool.

I hope you're right.

I really want to see Dragons flying around while burning random people and sheep. What would also be nice is if Bran Stark works his magic and manages to control one of those dragons the way he does with wolves and the ogre.

I'd also like the wildlings and Stannis' army to come together to crush some white walkers and smash Bolton's army.

Not to mention that it's about time for that faceless god guy to finalize "the girl's" training.

And finally, I'd also like Theon Greyjoy to grow some balls, since he can't grow anything else down there. That standing there and watching the Bolton bastard take the Stark girl for a spin is not cool.

Bolton's demise will be glorious.  Ideally, while being sodomized by Brienne.

When Bolton called over Sansa to show her something.  I thought for sure it would be a hanging Brienne but it turned out to be the old messenger lady.

Love how the kuntface Cersie got locked up.  hahaha.  bought time that bitch had some of her own medicine.  As much as I hate the whole Sparrow storyline, seeing her suffer makes up for it.

As much as I wanted to smack around Joffrey, the little shit Tommen is worst. Such a spineless little twit. 

Funny though how much people hate this season and if anyone has read the books they'll realize this season deviates completely from the books.  It's not coincidence that once the writers bastardized the books that the show took a dive.  Just keep to the source material.  RR Martin wrote some fantastic books and some Harvard grad writers are trying to make the show their own and are killing it.

True. Just follow the books. Add the new characters and follow the POVS like RR did. The audience will enjoy it just like they enjoyed the books. I know its for TV but it kills me when writers do this. Why do they think the books are so popular in the first place? You have a magnificent writer who has given you the perfect script but you just add your own shit for the ADD generation and fuck it all up.

Luckily the source material is so good that it will withstand the stupidity and arrogance of the writers. Thank goodness for that.

More Spoilers (some may be true, some may not. Use your own judgement OMR!)

The Mountain will soon be re-animated by the Maester to become a real Zombie Frankenstein more than 10xtimes as strong as before.

Arya will become an epic Assassin slaying anyone in her path.

Tyrion and Jorah Mormont will become buddies.

Cersei will be stripped naked and do the Walk of Shame.

Jon Snow is more than what meets the eye (much more powerful when he merges and does a fusion with x), which the Crows soon will notice.

Reek will eventually snap out of it and summon his Uncles Victarion Greyjoy and the dreaded pirate Euron Greyjoy to join the fray.

Victarion, Commander of the Fleet

Not being able to put it in a context?

Do you not  comprehend that Winter (the LONG winter) is COMING???

The White Walkers bring the cold with them, they attack when they feel the time is right.

The right time to attack Hardhome was to gain reinforcements (kill as many wildlings as possible) before the majority of the Wildlings in Hardhome had left the town.

They do not need build-up.

But when the Long Winter has spread across the land, everyone knows what will come.

That's exactly the parallel I thought of when I saw that scene. Agamemnon sacrificing his daughter in order to appease Artemis for favorable winds versus Stannis' sacrifice in order to have safe voyage through the agonizing snow.

There is no nobility in selflessness, the good of the many is a damnable ideal. Just like future rewards, Locke, Mills, Marks, Engels all demand sacrifice from all others but themselves...Religions, social ideologies all promise rewards later, while you squalor in your filth now.   

In that episode all we see is a ambitious man sacrificing all for his super ego, nothing else.
Title: Re: A Game of Thrones - best show on TV
Post by: Tedim on June 08, 2015, 09:43:11 AM
Interesting points. It seems that Stannis was, by your lights, damned if he did or if he didn't. If he sacrifices his daughter for the sake of the "cause," you say there is no nobility or justification in his "selflessness;" and if he sacrifices his daughter for his own ambitions (selfishness), he's also ignoble and unjustified. However, doesn't the same hold if he choose not to sacrifice his daughter out of his personal love, which would doom the fate of his troops (selfishness). Did Stannis have a way out?

If you believe that choices are linear....then indeed he was damned if he did or if he didn't. But they're not, he has every opportunity to avail himself of his own trap, yet he presses forward into it. Why?, his wants his needs are all that matter, he is a driverless tank grinding everything in its path, as he is hollow inside. Was there a way out?

Yes, he could have given up his "future" kingdom....
Title: Re: A Game of Thrones - best show on TV
Post by: Grape Ape on June 08, 2015, 04:31:51 PM
It's a complicated issue. Stannis is a hard man, but seems to be very principled (perhaps a tragic flaw -- where his strength will be his undoing). The making of a choice, which, I should imagine, involves some measure of deliberation, is inherently teleological: i.e., it is driven by a means-ends calculus with a goal in mind. One chooses between possible options based on some sense of future expectation. So, in this sense, the choice-making apparatus seems inescapably "linear" (if this is what you mean). I agree with you that Stannis did have the option of giving up his goal of ruling the Seven Kingdoms. He could have chosen to forsake his imagined destiny, and go against those visions he has been shown (by Melisandre). But, I think you would agree, that this option would still be based on another vision of futurity (not sacrificing his daughter to see her live a little longer), which is also linear. In any case, thanks for your thoughtful comments.  

Linear, schminear.   A hot chick with nice tits told him to do something, so he did.

Dude. I'm hoping this was just an anomaly, and the show didn't just jump the shark, but the last few minutes were a bit hokey.

Yes the "event" I thought was going to happen did not happen.  Please tune in for next week :D

I agree though.

I'm probably the only one missing all the action here ...


Is there a way to watch it without having to subscribe to HBO ? (besides buying the dvd's of course)





WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH

The show is fairly easy to obtain via bit torrent if you do a bit of searching.  You won't find it on YouTube or anything.

You can also now subscribe to HBO all by itself for $15/mo (HBO Now app), don't need regular cable subscription.

If you're in Australia, you used to be able to buy/download the episodes as they air, but I don't think you an do this anymore, even if you manage to trick iTunes into thinking you're in Australia.

Now, I'm really excited to see what might happen in the finale.

This last episode was "ok" and while the dragon at the end was certainly entertaining (the music truly adds to the overall magic), I almost felt as if those spears that were getting through might have slowly started to inflict some damage.

Shittiest part is that even if the finale is amazing, then there is another year to wait for another season.

I believed this because in all the previous seasons they have done their chessboard-smashing in Episode 9 then Episode 10 is the aftermath and setting things up for the next season.

There is a major major major thing still to happen, assuming they are wrapping up the major events from the most recent book in this season.  It can potentially be as shocking as the Red Wedding depending on how the present it.  If it's the very last thing in the episode this week then fade-to-black, people will go ape-shit :D

edit: actually I guess Tywin was killed in Episode 10 last season, I thought it was 9.

In that episode all we see is a ambitious man sacrificing all for his super ego, nothing else.

Not his ego, if he really believes he is Azor Azhai, then he did it for the greater good.

He did it for every man, woman and child in the kingdom.

There is no nobility in selflessness, the good of the many is a damnable ideal. Just like future rewards, Locke, Mills, Marks, Engels all demand sacrifice from all others but themselves...Religions, social ideologies all promise rewards later, while you squalor in your filth now.   

In that episode all we see is a ambitious man sacrificing all for his super ego, nothing else.

I would think that Stannis right hand man will either kill Melisandra or Stannis when he finds out what happens.  He loved the girl and doesn't agree at all with what's going on.  he especially hates the fire witch.  His loyalty will only go so far.

As for JS.  They've been setting it up all season for that little kid to do something "shocking".  Even Sam told him sometimes you need to do what you think is right and that kid had an evil idea.  He's not happy that John invited those wildings that killed his whole familia.  You'll expect that little kid to stick a knife right into John's heart next week.

It's had its moments but overall I would say this has been the weakest season so far by a pretty good margin.  They don't have a lot to work with, the two most recent books, which this season is based on, were not as good as the first three, lots of filler and plot lines not really going anywhere.

It's the weakest because the whole season deviated from the books completely.

I wouldn't say "completely" but they did merge a lot of plotlines.  The only extensive stuff in those two books I can think of that's really been cut entirely is Jamie's trip to the Riverlands and that group of Dornish guys (Quentyn?  The dude that got fried by the dragon), but I haven't read either of them in several years now.

Also the plot with the Dorne prince (Doran) to have his daughter marry the guy who may or may not be Dany's lost little brother?  I forget the details but that seems to have been axed except for Jorah getting the skin rash that that one guy got in the book.

Basically the whole Dorne plotline on the show seems like a waste of time and I'm not sure where they're going with it other than to give Jamie and Bronne some screentime this season.

The daughter getting burned never happened.  The Night King showing up never happened, Sansa marrying Ramsay never happened, Tyrion meeting Kaleesi never happened.

They based the majority of this season on storylines that don't happen in the books.

True, but Martin has been quoted as saying the daughter will die. Probably not that way though. I'm sure he has a lot of influence over their decisions when it comes to story lines.

These are not "complete deviations" though.  Most of them are things that are in progress already in the books or something similar is going on:

- They've talked about burning the daughter frequently in the books (it will probably happen)
- Night's King is a real character in the books and is going to show up eventually
- Tyrion is well on his way to meeting up with Dany
- Ramsey married someone pretending to be a Stark daughter and Sansa is clearly being set up to go take back Winterfell eventually

They aren't just making whole plotlines up with no basis in the book story.  The showrunners know the broad strokes of how the entire story progresses and ends, this was one of the stipulations they made on the author before the show started.

I would be very surprised if he is dead for good.  The show's publicity machine is going 100% now trying to convince everyone he's gone for good, probably just to build up a surprise reveal next year.

I think he'll turn into whatever that "Coldhands" guy is in the books.

Which is a truly stupid response.

Point of fact:  I know I am smart, and I like the show very much. 

Ergo, your crude argument is flawed :)

The show is good.  Anyone who follows it with some consistency [probably] won't dispute that.  It is a TV show with great actors and a near-commercial movie budget backing it, to say nothing of the good story. 

Other shows have their perks; e.g., Adonis' favorite "Hell On Wheels."  I love that show, too.  And "True Detective" is, IMNSHO, without rival for what it is

But when I initiated this thread, GoT ran without competition from HoW, TD or the Walter White show, which was beyond awesome in its own right.

"The Wire" is the best show on TV, IMO. It starts out slow and it takes about 4 episodes to pick up, like a novel that builds momentum as it goes along. It's very involved with multiple
characters and it's best to watch it with the subtitles on to pick everything up. Season 4, which focused on inner city middle school, was amazing. I think Lehane wrote episodes in season
four and maybe season three. It's very realistic and authentic and not your typical Hollywood TV show. It's also too intelligent and real for most viewers and the ratings were always very
low when it was on HBO. I haven't seen anything better since it ended it's run almost 10 years ago.

A few years back a fellow GetBigger recommended that I read THE GAME OF THRONES.

The first chapter got me hooked and I've been a fan ever since and I eventually dove into the TV series which I found to be even more fascinating than the book.

What surprised me about the whole damn series is that the heros seldom win and some real bad shit happens to one in particular which could never be discussed in mixed and polite circles such as this GetBig Board in particular.

The only thing I dislike about this series is that there are too damn many characters with confusing  names and I have a problem recalling who is whom and the results of the ensuing family feuds.

Not too many TV watchers dislike this series and it has won numerous awards over the years it has been on TV.

I have only met one of the principal actors in this production and I have to admit that the did a good job before the script killed him off.

I doubt that any avid GetBiggers have watched DOWNTON ABBEY, but it is another TV series that has gained my attention due to its historical background and how the aristocrats used to live in Great Britain and the changes that occurred after WW1.

Maggie Smith's portrayal as the DUCHESS is some of the best acting I'v ever watched.

Great job, Maggie Smith!

I gotta end this by saying that it is an amazing thing to watch a good friend become a different person entirely. I see this on numerous occasions at family gatherings and it always fascinates me
especially when the 'actor' is only 6.

I think it's started to rely a bit too much on shock / "who will die next??".  The quality of the writing/story-telling hasn't been consistently good for a while now.

I suspect the cast/crew/writers/etc. are weary of it after six years but it's so wildly popular they have to keep going.

Still a great show though.

I suspect the cast/crew/writers/etc. are weary of it after six years but it's so wildly popular they have to keep going.

Still a great show though.

Hey, Hulkotron!

I can't disagree. It's a cash- and award-cow, and a guilty pleasure I look forward to before starting the weekly grind.

The show has turned into a "woman Power" show.  The writer is pretty much out of it now.  The show runners are creating their own storylines and making it about Female Power. Fuck them.  I'm so sick of this shit.
As for titties, that red bushed witch has a face that looks like it's 40 but tits like an 18 year old.  Just fantastic.

Showed up for a Martin signing in, what, 04/5? Store empty; looking good. Had a beer; came back in 45, and place was jammed. Like a 1000 people jammed. Asked politely, and was obliged. Crazy stuff.

A little more than good? "[In its five seasons,] the series has received 86 Emmy Award nominations, including five consecutive Outstanding Drama Series nominations, with 26 wins …. In 2015, it set a record for winning the most number of Emmy Awards for a series in a single year, with 12 wins out of 24 nominations." (no nerdo)

I like it and watch it as soon as new eps come out, I just don't feel it's as great as everyone makes out.Awards in tv and movies are a huge circle jerk so I wouldn't put much stock in that.

Your points are well taken. It's not a perfect show. However, because some episodes are so good, they set a very high bar for other episodes to clear. We'll have to judge it as a whole, when the run is complete.

It's like watching a movie each week.  I believe its the highest cost per episode of any show to produce at something like $5-10 million per episode.  it was enough that they almost cancelled it after season 1 then the DVD sales exploded when word of mouth went around convincing HBO to renew it.

Seems like a prick as we'll. While HBO was urging him to finish the books he went ahead and wrote a completely different book.  Think he's just fucking with HBO now.  They realize it and pretty much wrote this whole season himself.

yes he snaps at his die hard fans as well, the people who kept who on the table for him long before h.b.o

he wrote the first 3 books in a span of 5 years.  and has put out two in the past 16- the past two books have not been good at all.

but he has worked on other shitty books that people dont care about or buy.   if he gets the books done now i will be surprised.

GAME OF THRONES’ Joseph Naufahu on Being the New Khal in Town

http://nerdist.com/game-of-thrones-joseph-naufahu-khal-moro-ghost-in-the-shell/

Since the end of Game of Thrones season one, there has been a massive, Jason Momoa-shaped hole in our hearts. Ever since the hulking leader of the Dothraki horde shuffled off this mortal coil, we have not encountered anyone quite like him. Sure, Daenerys Targaryen came into her own as the Mother of Dragons and the Khaleesi, but apart from a few Dothraki here and there, as well as her Bloodriders, we haven’t really encountered another Khal…until now. On Sunday night’s season 6 premiere, Joseph Naufahu made his unforgettable debut as Khal Moro, the leader of the Dothraki khalasar that captured Daenerys at the end of season 5. While he is a musclebound behemoth of a man, this Khal isn’t all grunting and murder; rather, he seems to possess a sense of humor as well as an insatiable bloodlust. With Daenerys under his “protection” as they transport the widowed Khaleesi to Vaes Dothrak, it is all but guaranteed that we’ll be seeing an awful lot of Khal Moro this season.

(http://nerdist.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/got-khal-moro.jpg)

Fortunately, actor Joseph Naufahu does not share his on-screen counterpart’s qualms about boarding ships and crossing the Narrow Sea. While in Los Angeles, Naufahu came by our studio to chat about his character, his first day on set, the sticky prank Emilia Clarke played on him, and much more — including a tidbit about working on the upcoming Scarlett Johansson-starring Ghost in the Shell adaptation.

For two decades, I looked forward to the Dark Tower books, so well written and seemed to tie all of the King books together. His last Dark Tower was a travesty. He should have been sued for writer malpractice. He totally phoned that shit in and ruined what could have been his greatest property. Fuck, I am still mad about that.

Robert Jordan died before finishing Wheel of Time. The last three books were written by a different author too finish. Started the first but wasn't the same style. Stinks when you read all the others and never get to see it truly finished.

That's the problem with the writers: They have to keep John Snow in for the fangirls, so storyline or logic be damned. And while it is true that they cannot follow all story lines, they are following the most crucial ones. Making it all the more bizarre that they aren't simply following them as written!

Don't forget the dwarf was completely written out of book 4 I believe yet HBO found a way to keep his character relevant.  he's now become the Henny Youngman of this show.  I miss the sex scenes.  HBO has taken this from R rated to PG-13.

yeah, it's the 2nd week in a row that the imp has said "that's because you have no cawk...." to embarrass the bald spider guy.

I like the fact they don't drag shit out like they used to - but the dialogue is terrible and lots of logic fails.  They're trying to re-create the series finale of Breaking Bad with every episode now.  Everything is too quick, too pieced together, with lowbrow humor to keep the idiots watching, jon snow to keep the daryl dixon fangirls watching, and everything wraps up in a bow.  if the whole season is like this, things are going to be hella confusing.

SoA was good the first few seasons.  Then, there were too many "big" things that happened, stuff that you can't turn back from.....but they did.  Got ridiculous.  Especially when you consider that the lead character's wife was a top of her filed child surgeon, and he could have just spent his time raising his kids and fucking her while enjoying her high six figure salary.....but no.....running guns was far safer for his family.

One thing that kept me interested was seeing just how much SoA logo stuff Jax actually owned.  Was great when the baby had an SoA beanie.

Also, it was fun to keep seeing which Shield actor they'd have next.

Having watched the first few, you feel like you HAVE to watch it through, but wanted it done.  Just like Dexter, which was brilliant int he beginning, but went WAY to long and got stupid.

Tits were hers.  She made an exception.

I think there's a lot of progress in her story - Dany now has the dothracki, darrio's mercs, the unsullied, and 3 dragons - all that's left is for her to go to the throne..

The rest of the season will be the Snow vs Bolton

her dad, the mad king, was able to burn entire villiages and forts using the dragons they rode. 

Right now, the dragons can maybe take out a few dozen men at a time, but still can be damaged with spears and arrows. 

Although we haven't seen the big dragon in some time... maybe he shows up gigantic down the road.  He's been eating and flying free.


The show moves SO much faster this year than ever before.  They spent enough time building these characters that they can do that now.

Then for Season 6, she changed her mind again.

“I’d like to remind people the last time I took my clothes off was season 3,” she told Entertainment Weekly.
“That was awhile ago. It’s now season 6.

What happened with those two little dragons?  the imp released them... did they fly off?  I can't recall.

Is there a chance those 2 are breeding, and will show up down the road full grown, with 6 or 8 baby dragons with them?

Nope, they're both dudes (brothers as well), and not following the Goodrum-esque ways of the Kielbasa.

They (the colored bros Rhaegar and Viserion) will be there for the final battle against Whitey. (White Walkers)

Drogon will still dwarf them though, a la prime-Markus Ruhl vs Branch Warren.

lannisters, tyrells, boltens, greyjoys... they'll all melt away, and the show will come down to (possibly siblings) jon snow and khaleesi uniting to defeat the white walkers?

And then bran's magic time travel communication abilities will tell ned stark to STEP UP and claim the throne when the mad king fell... and we'll see a century of prosperity and unity for westeros as the starks run the iron throne?   An alternate reality where our fallen favorites are all happy?  Joffrey will be a well-adjusted school teacher, Robert baretheon will be sober and hunting boars with a smile... all of the fallen dead will have better fates and the viewer is floored with happiness.

Daenerys will ride Drogon into battle, Jon Snow will ride one dragon and Bran will "warg" into one Dragon.

In the end, Whitey will stand no chance with constant bombardment of fire and death from above.

I'd love to visit the fire temple where all these red witches with great tits live.  Sounds like a good ole time.  Not sure if you guys are tiring of the Arya Stark storyline every week fighting the other chick with bo staffs.  Boring storyline.  The Bran storyline is interesting in that he can manipulate people in the past visions to do things today.  Wonder if he'll figure out who the whitewalker king is/was and go back to that time and manipulate him then.  This shit's confusing.  So Bran is destined to be King. Tommen is King.  Kaleesee is going to be Queen.  John Snow might be the King.  Too many people fighting for the throne.

The whispers about burning them is from the red witch.  We'll learn she's behind a lot of wars.  As they shown earlier she is a lot older than her appearance.  She might be hundreds of years old.

unless it's bran like i think and he's whispering burn them all(them being the walkers) to the mad king in the past. but since there's no mad king in the future he cant warg into him and just drives him mad.  or maybe what bran did to hodor the 3eyed raven did to the mad king and drove him mad accidentally

This show which was already strange with it's fantasy part took it a bit far with Bran's time travel, people manipulation  ability.  Did he always have it?  Was it the fall from the tower that crippled him?  Where did he get it?

hodor was messed up for 20 years of life, due to bran going back in time...   HBO is spending enough $ that they won't blow it.   In the end, everything will change... Starks will rule in peace and none of this will have happened.

I think Bolton's son that Ramsey sic'd the dogs on was named Micha.  Figure that one out.

ALso they did give us 5 years of pretty slow backstory on all of these characters.   We had to sit thru Tyrion whining about his hooker at age 16, we had to sit thru cersei mourning over and over, we had to yawn through robb stark's incessant whining...

at this point, we know all of the major characters very well.  So they can do all these wild things in every show and it makes sense.

I don't know how they can get 2 more seasons out of the story though.   They'd have to end it at the end of season 7.

yeah, thousands of years. Those were the first men, the ancestors of the northerners and the wildlings, they worshiped the old gods, the ones that the children of the forest believed in. The targaryens and the southerners are descendants of the Andals who brought the 7 gods and shit like knighthood culture

You got it. They are not following the books anymore, since FatGuy hasn't finished Winds of Winter yet!

They did a nod at the Fatguy it in the last episode "The Door" with the play depicting Ned Starks beheading though.

"The Winds of Winter" is the name of the upcoming book, whenever FatGuy decides to finish it.

Fat Man Martin had a plan but eventually got writers block in how to tie it all up.  I think he screwed himself when he declared exactly how many books he'll write.

FatGuy has writers block now, but you have to see the series and the books as their own entities,the show-writers will have to wrap it up in their own way now.

That's why they can surprise the bookreaders as well.

If I'm not mistaken, next season is their last.  They declared the end well past the books being completed.  Would like to see how Martin ties it all up or if he is obligated to go the route the TV series does.

The Mountain had better be used in some kind of role.  A gigantic zombiefied killing machine at your disposal and you do nothing?  At least send him across the sea to murder those backstabbing bitches that murder their king, brother and the Stark girl with that poison kiss.

Can't wait to see what kind of murder/death they have in store for Ramsey.  He needs something brutal.  The sad part was Joffery was given an easy death and exit compared to how he treated some people.  It needed to be longer and lingering.

Can't wait for Cersi to get the nuke codes and kill them all.

The Mountain will be fighting The Hound at the trial by combat. I enjoyed watching Joffrey choke to death.

That's it?  That monster and that is the only role they can find for him?  He hasn't exactly done shit since he was remade. 

Joffrey needed a slower lingering death.  Just for all the pain he caused.

There will be no Trial by Combat unfortunately, but The Hound WILL return to fight his brother.

Hound is saved by followers of sorts ("Followers of the Penii" or similar) that will be slayed by some "Brotherhood without Banners"-folks first aka "5 %:ers"

Hound will get his revenge on them.

Jon and Ramsay meet on the battlefield.

everyone thinks the Dog/Hound has been rescued and working at a monastary and is religious now - he'll be recruited to fight the Mountain in Cersei's trial by combat, giving us the brother vs brother showdown.


they're bringing back the starks in a big way.  Benjen + the blackfish are two legit badasses.  Arya is an assassin on the loose now.  Sansa is going to be preggo with ramsey's baby, that's obvious (she made new clothes, said her torture was still inside her, woudln't eat the raw gross meat at dinner).  and bran's whole "superpower" thing.

IMO, the mad king looked a little low budget.

we're talking about wildfire in the sewers, and a mad king executing his foes as robert baratheon marches on the throne.  I expected to see him surrounded with his kingsguard, bodies, screaming, bystanders, some gore, etc.   A clean king on the throne yelling 'burn them all' was way less impressive than I imagined, right before kingslayer stabbed him.

They tend to do the low vs. high budget thing.  The white walker scenes cost a lot of money so they tend to have 1-2 high cost episodes and a bunch of low cost.  Probably be a big battle in one of the last two shows of the seasons.

Maybe in the end Bran will be King with Kaleesee as his queen.

During Bran's whirlwind of greensight visions in the opening scene, we were given a glimpse of the Mad King Aerys Targaryen — Daenerys' father and ruler of the Seven Kingdoms before Robert Baratheon. Not only did we finally see him in the flesh, but Bran's vision included Jaime Lannister killing Aerys by stabbing him in the back.

Season 6 of Game of Thrones has taken fans beyond the events of George R.R. Martin‘s A Song of Ice and Fire novels and moved the characters towards the series’ endgame. But that conclusion could mean shorter seasons for the show.

Veteran TV director Jack Bender was interviewed by Vanity Fair about the two episodes of Game of Thrones that he helmed this season. When asked if he would return for the seventh season, Bender replied, “I don’t know the answer to that They’re only doing seven [episodes], and they’ve got their regulars who have done it forever.”

While that news is sure to disappoint some fans, it’s not entirely a surprise. Back in April, Game of Thrones co-showrunner David Benioff said “I think we’re down to our final 13 episodes after this season. We’re heading into the final lap. That’s the guess, though nothing is yet set in stone, but that’s what we’re looking at.”

If HBO has settled on 13 episodes and season 7 will only get seven, then the planned eighth season would be 6 episodes long. Considering there may be nearly a year between seasons 7 and 8, that’s going to be a very long wait for fans. But that’s nothing compared to the book readers who have been waiting for Martin to finish his final two novels in the series!

From a business perspective, it’s understandable why HBO would rather split the remaining episodes than deliver a 13 episode final season. Game of Thrones is one of the network’s most popular shows and the reigning Emmy winner for best drama. It’s the kind of hit that just doesn’t come along very often, and HBO won’t let it go without getting as much out of it as possible.

This Kickstarter from Tony Wang is looking to make a detailed, six inch Hodor-door holder that is crafted around the actual scene, with the lovable single-word speaking character putting his arm and back up against the door (forever fighting against the charging wights). They’ve already printed some prototypes but are looking into the possibility of making a mold and casting them instead of using a 3D printer to produce them.

They are currently trying to get a licensing agreement from HBO, and if they fail to procure one everyone will get a full refund for their pledge, which is good because a lot of people have already done so. Their initial target of $5,000 has been obliterated, with nearly $68,000 already committed to the campaign. You can get one for as little as $37, and there are still 22 days left to get on board.

Now she has all that knowledge in the bagage and is free to do with it as she pleases, since Jaqen was amused with her and will not go after her / send anyone after her now.

She can use all her newfound knowledge of disguises and ninja-skills to use as she pleases.

She's also a much tougher lass now, shrugging off a few stabs and still being able to flee the scene of peace.

She is much sturdier and tougher in mind as well,  Ready to avenge all those who wronged her.

Now she has all that knowledge in the bagage and is free to do with it as she pleases, since Jaqen was amused with her and will not go after her / send anyone after her now.

She can use all her newfound knowledge of disguises and ninja-skills to use as she pleases.

She's also a much tougher lass now, shrugging off a few stabs and still being able to flee the scene of peace.

She is much sturdier and tougher in mind as well,  Ready to avenge all those who wronged her.

Ok, I can buy that.

But, will she have the shape shifting ability still, or is that acquired only through having a supply of faces.

I really hope we get to see her keep that face thing.   Maybe she gets work at a morgue, or whatever they called it back then.   

I wonder what show notables she will ice.

This was the weakest episode this year.

What was the whole point of Arya's storyline if she's just going to leave?

I liked the first five minutes with the Hound and his axe.

The rest was a cold turd though.

Everyone keeps talking about Clegane Bowl.   It'd be cool, but it'd likely be in an open battle now, not in the trial by combat, which is banned.     maybe if the brotherhood attacks the capital.  I assumed they'd end up at the Vale.

Mountain is technically dead though (got reanimated into Frankenmountain / Ser Robert Strong), so i don¨t think Arya will keep that one on the list.

Most people would say he got killed during the Duel with the Viper.

It will be Hound VS Mountain eventually.

And I would bet she will see him die the same way she watched her father die, being beheaded. Actually being able to do something this time would then give her both revenge and closure. Frankly not what I think GRRM would have done, too neat, but the show's writers are a bit more simplistic and melodramatic.

Finally saw it. So Arya took a few stabs and one knife 6 inches deep and twisted in her gut and healed overnight. No sign of pain at all. WTF was that? Weak enterance by Khaleesi.  I thought the Greyjoys were heading to mereen but the Lannister ships to their first. So I assume the Greyjoys will save the day and gain an ally with Khaleesi.  What happened to the whole Bran storyline? Easily the worst season so far. Storylines seem lost. Writers not sure what to do and is just a big steaming pile of shit.

That's what Littlefinger hoped for.

That they'd slaughter eachother with almost nothing left, and then Lilfinga and his troops arrived after Ramsay and Jon had killed eachother.

He will keep on scheming and will remain a powerplayer in Westeros.

He's 6'6", I'm 6'5" and my measurements were similar, fitted the costume well. They didn't pay me on a Friday for travel up, gave me 15 quid to do the fitting as it was only an actual hour of work to fit me...it cost me well over 100 euros for the day butI didn't mind though it wasn't about the money. They made me sign a non-disclosure and all that because his  character hadn't been unveiled for the 6th series. They rang me over the weekend then and said they wanted me there at 5am on set, 14 hour day, come fed cos no breakfast, get a lunch then 14 hours standing still for the day. I agreed if they put me in a hotel but they rang back and asked could I made a 7am start instead...I said yes but changed my mind Monday because I was so hungover from Saturday and didn't think it was worth my while as I felt they were taking the piss.

I should have done it.

Probably one of the best episodes of the series but the writers just dragged shit all season to make an epic finale.  I'm glad Cersei wiped out the entire Sparrow storyline with one blow.  I wonder why in the Bran vision they make Ned keep looking back like he can see Bran?  I guess in future shows Bran will talk to people in his vision?  I would love to see a little slut action with the sand snake triplets and Khaleesi.  LOL at the midget convincing her to leave Dario behind because he now loves her.   I guess for her it won't be as easy as she thinks to get to Westeros.  Winter is here, the Iron Island army is building a fleet to go after the traitors.
Nice reveal that everyone knew that John I the heir to the 7 kingdoms.  I guess he won't hook with Dany unless they want Aunt/nephew sex on the show.  Poor John getting sexy eye from the 10 year old queen.  A little awkward to say the least.  haha.

so basically if you have a targareyan baby, it kills you?

Therefore Tyrion is the 3rd Targaryn, right?

That limp-wrist dude that wore the gold crown wouldn't have melted if he was a True Targareyan. 

So Jon Snow, Khaleesi, and Tyrion all killed their moms in childbirth?   And the dragons didn't mess with Tyrion, and Jon said don't burn him (and he was born of that affair with mad king).


I'm guessing just as danerys is about to beat queen cersei's armies, they'll have the iron islands crew show up to cramp their style.

I didn't like when BenJen said "magic spell keeps us out" - Kinda one of those things you don't say out loud.  "As long as the wall stands" tells us it is falling.  

More looking fwd to the battle for king's landing.  I guess we'll see Cersei/Jaime fall... Danerys take over, work out a deal with Jon Snow, then unite to protect the kingdom from the walkers.


They pulled off a good season finale.  This season was excellent.

Oh, yeah, this season was great.  I liked the last episode a tad better, but this was cool.

Snow said said something as he left the wall like "try not to knock it down" or some joke like that.   I think that's what tipped it off to me - figured the Wall would either be destroyed by Brann, the wakers, or intentionally to try to crush them.

yeah, it's a cool soap opera with incest, murder, politics... and then it's going to turn into a zombie show.

I didn't like when BenJen said "magic spell keeps us out" - Kinda one of those things you don't say out loud.  "As long as the wall stands" tells us it is falling.   

More looking fwd to the battle for king's landing.  I guess we'll see Cersei/Jaime fall... Danerys take over, work out a deal with Jon Snow, then unite to protect the kingdom from the walkers.


They pulled off a good season finale.  This season was excellent.

I don't get that magic spell thing when the wildlings were able to get through.  Cersei is a mean bitch.  Wanted to burn her son.  Just burn them all.  Wonder if the mountain is raping that torturing bitch.  hahaha.  Some good shit last episode.  Is she truly the rightful heir to the throne if her son died?

Excellent episode. The first 15 minutes were more chilling than any horror movie I've seen in the last year. The direction and music were standout.

I don't have the elephantine memory a lot of people have when it comes to this show, but in regards to not much happening this season, I was trying to think what storylines could have moved faster or been dropped. Arya's is the only one that dragged. Dany seems to cover a lot of the same ground (how many times has she given that speech she gave to the dothraki?), but the story moved forward. Every other storyline moved at an appropriate pace. The season was great overall. I think people are just a little conditioned to complain about this show.

They made up for the Arya storyline with her killing the Frey dude.  She's on her ninja assassin mission now.  Loved how all episode she was teasing Jamie Lannister but interesting how at one point he gave her an inquisitive look.  His alarm bells went off but he probably didn't know why. Just good intuition that something didn't seem right with the waitress.  Did Arya really kill the sons and bake them into the bread?  hahaha.  She is full blown psycho Hannibal lecter now.

In regards to the post above.  Sansa was smiling the whole time they made John King.  She only looked pissed when everyone was cheering but she saw little finger standing there silent.

Yeah, my interpretation was that she was more concerned that they were now allied with a snake like littlefinger, but the writers could reasonably go in either direction. Her explanation for why she wasn't forthcoming about the knights of the vale didn't really make sense to me. I felt like there were a few explanations that actually would have made sense.

yeah, when little finger said he wants to sit on the throne with her by his side she replied "that's a pretty picture".  Not sure if she's just leading him on or serious.  Bitch knew they were coming but didn't tell john who could have died during the battle at any moment.  Not a nice thing to do.  Maybe Arya will slit her throat.  haha

She didn't seem that distraught about his death.  She probably realized she can finally be queen.  If the King died in the blast she could have been charged but if he killed himself she gets away with it.

She'd already lost two children and he chose to die after essentially throwing her to the wolves and turning his back on her. Also, she's just a bitch. I haven't read the books, but I've heard that in them Cersei's portrayed as not really caring for any of the children besides Joffrey.

Just can't get over how much better last night's finale was compared to  " The Walking Dead". That is how you do a season finale in the internet age. They closed off a bunch of story lines and set the next part of the story in motion.

A piano cover of the soundtrack was posted upthread. For anyone who cares, here's the version that appeared during last night's episode.

Excellent finale and probably the best season yet. Out of the 10 episodes, I can only remember 1 episode that was slow and seemed like an hour-long tease.

So far, the show has rekindled my interest and I'm glad, as the last 2-3 seasons pretty much sucked in my opinion.

Sucks that we have to wait so long for the next season and that supposedly it's going to be a short one (6-7 episodes?).

I thought it was the best season since the first one, very good overall.

I read something a bit ago where the show's creators said they have about 15 episodes (or maybe it was 15 hours) worth of material left.

My lady friend got me to watch GOT's starting with  the second season. Though it was another average time slot show (prime time). Was I wrong...of course. Best stuff on cable, TV or even most movies.

This Sundays show; classic, with it's directing, film editing  and even background music during the revenge plot at the beginning. Exceptional acting and dialog..certainly. The week before that, both battle scenes were also great. Though the second one took the prize, as far as I'm concern. That surrounding battlefield tactic has been standard for thousand of years, and shot extremely well on the show. Great show to watch on a big screen TV and a matching sound bar.

Interesting how the actors seem to grow into their role, season after season. And what computer directed software can accomplish today.

HBO is officially confirming some major changes for Game of Thrones.

Season 7 of the fantasy sensation will not return until summer 2017 – pushing back from the show’s usual strategy of premiering each edition of the series in the spring (typically April).

Also, the network is confirming for the first time that next edition will consist of seven episodes (a pull back from the show’s usual 10 hours).
 



Plus, HBO added that the next season will be shot in Northern Ireland, Spain, and Iceland. It’s been a couple years since the Thrones team used Iceland for significant shooting, having primarily used the location for North of the Wall scenes when Jon Snow was embedded with the Wildlings camp.

if they do the golden company they'll have to do battle elephants, i can't see them having the budget for that. more so if they go with a blackfyre captain, he'd just end up siding with his cousin danny, i guess it would make good tv, danny get surrounded and looks like she's about to get wrecked for the golden company to side with her

The cave drawings lend to Dany's death.  concentric circles represent where dany gave birth to the dragons. one is the queen with a monkey tail.  tyrion is referred to as a monkey during his childhood. And of course Davos refers to her heart on several occasions.  If I'm Dany, I'd take my dragons back to Astapor and get the f##k out of dodge.

The scene begins with Gilly (Hannah Murray) reciting a list of seemingly inconsequential factoids to Samwell (John Bradley) while he tried to study, tidbits recorded by the apparently super diligent High Septon Maynard.

Then she asks him what the word “annulment” means. Sam explains it’s when a man ends a marriage. Gilly says that this Septon issued an annulment to a certain Prince Rhaegar — you know, as in, Daenerys’ brother Rhaegar Targaryen (!) — and then married him to somebody else at the same time (!!). In secret (!!!). In Dorne (!!!!).

Then Samwell totally interrupted Gilly just as she might have been about to blurt out a massively important revelation.

Now, this scene didn’t connect every single dot for us. But it doesn’t take much to assume this means Rhaegar actually married Lyanna Stark — and didn’t just get her pregnant out of wedlock like the show has led us to assume (so the assumption that they actually ran off together and were in love was likely correct). The series has also avoided explicitly saying Rhaegar is Jon Snow’s father and has only confirmed Lynanna is his mother, but that Snow is Rhaegar’s son is a perfectly reasonable assumption to make (especially when the guy is now petting dragons like it’s no big deal at all).



So, Jon Snow would not only be a Targaryen, but also a legitimate heir. In fact, as a male, his Iron Throne claim would actually trump Daenerys’ claim.

And now, Jon, Daenerys, and Gendry all have Iron Throne claims and are all hanging out together (Gendry has one if you consider Robert’s Rebellion legal).

Let’s put this another way: If all the assumptions are correct…what Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen have believed all their lives about themselves isn’t true: Jon Snow is actually not a bastard at all, and Daenerys is not the rightful heir to the Iron Throne.

Post by: Hulkotron on August 16, 2017, 06:52:03 PM
Zombie dragon.

Okay so, we begin north of the Wall with Jon Snow’s zombie-snatching party, where Tormund jokes that he’s going to fuck Gendry and then warns Jon not to be so proud that he ends up dooming the North. It’s a pleasant enough scene, where the disparate party all settle scores and do some catching up as they march to purposefully hang out with the scariest guy on the continent. For some reason, Jon also tries to give Jorah back his family’s Valyrian steel sword before Jorah wisely tells him he doesn’t deserve it.

Back in Winterfell, Arya and Sansa have their inevitable confrontation over Sansa’s old letter to Robb Stark assuring him that the Lannisters were good, and it plays out about how one would expect, with Arya getting in Sansa’s face and calling her a fake Stark for betraying her family. Sansa makes the obvious and true point that she was under duress and that she had to do it to stay alive, which, Arya being Arya, doesn’t sit well with her sister, who insists she’d have died instead of writing the letter. Both sisters have valid points and even after Sansa points out that infighting is exactly what Stark enemies want, Arya is stubborn enough to hold onto her antipathy.

Tyrion and Daenerys hold a debrief after Tyrion’s (still rather baffling) summit with his brother in the Red Keep, during which Tyrion tells Dany that Jon is horny for her. Tyrion and Dany are an odd pair, since she is the all-consuming conqueror with three dragons/children while Tyrion is the intellectual realist who knows the importance of the gritty process of diplomacy. The question of conquering vs. ruling that’s defined Dany’s arc for seasons now hasn’t melted away, and if anything, now that her dragons are explicit bearers of an apocalyptic power, it’s become even more prominent. She can win the war at anytime if she wants, but that won’t be enough. She has to, in her own words, break the wheel and ensure a better future. It will not be easy, especially when pitted against a sadist like Cersei.

When we return north of the Wall, everything is much more ominous, and the party spots a big hulking bear. All of a sudden they realize it’s a zombie bear and HOLY FUCKING SHIT. We’re now basically in a horror movie as this big fucker is biting people in the ass and generally destroying the tiny party of bandits and wildlings. Zombie Bear is more terrifying than Dany’s dragon, and even after Beric sets him on fire, he bites the shit out of Thoros of Myr, who later succumbs to his wounds.

There’s a short Winterfell interlude where Littlefinger reveals his plan, which is to put Brienne in between Arya and Sansa, ideally killing Arya in the process. This matters, but also, the zombie army is a much more pressing matter.

And there they are, a small detachment of ice zombies led by one of the Night King’s blue-eyed lieutenants. They fall into the party’s trap, and as soon as Jon slices open the white walker, all the wights but one immediately crumble into dust. Who knows why this happens, but it is convenient for our band of heroes, who are out to capture one wight. Tormund punches the remaining wight the face and the party captures it, but not before it lets out an ominous shriek, which inevitably means the rest of the army of the dead are coming.

Fleeing, Jon and friends run onto the surface of a frozen lake, and though they immediately try to stop and turn around to keep from breaking through, the ice zombies are now in attack mode, forcing them to make for an island in the center of the lake. Thankfully, the ice cracks, and hordes of undead are swallowed up by the lake. Still, a bunch of zombies remain on the shore, trapping our heroes on the rock.

Gendry, who Jon dispatched immediately to run back to Eastwatch, somehow avoided the ice lake and reaches the Wall after an insane snow marathon. He tells the men there they need to get word to Dany because Jon and his crew will all be dead “unless the Lord of Light sends us a bit of fire.”

And oh, would you look at that, there’s Dany in an extra-cool looking winter version of her battle dress telling Tyrion to shut up so she can fly north. Somehow, Jon and his buddies have survived (Thoros of Myr excepted) on a barren rock in a frozen lake surrounded by an army of thousands of ice zombies long enough for a raven to get from Eastwatch to Dragonstone and for Dany to ride north with all three dragons. Worrying about space and time is pretty much a lost pursuit at this point in the season.

The Hound, bored out of his gourd, starts throwing rocks at the army, which leads one particularly skeletal looking one to learn that it can just walk across the frozen lake, which has now re-frozen during the time that the heroes have been chilling on that rock. Now it’s time to fight again, and they somehow resist the onslaught and seem to be pretty efficient at killing ice zombies, although the scary thing about zombies isn’t that each one is particularly threatening, it’s that there are just so many of them. I don’t know how it’s plausible that this group of maybe a dozen frozen dudes kills as many zombies as they do, but Game of Thrones is more or less a pure action show this season, so I suppose it works.

All of a sudden, IT’S DRAGON TIME! Ice and fire are finally battling and it goddamn rules, even if it is the sort of deus ex machina device that the show staunchly refused until Season 7. Dany melts a ton of zombies and things appear to be working out until the Night King grabs a javelin and hurls that fucker into one of the minor dragons, sending it crashing into the ice. Big Crossbow may not have been enough to stop a dragon, but the Night King just Randy Johnsons that fucker right out of the sky. It’s hard to watch as its eyes close and it slips into the lake, dead as bricks.

Jon thinks about maybe dueling the Night King, but his buddy grabs him another javelin and Jon books it, only to be tackled into the lake by a trio of zombies. Dany and everyone else board Drogon and beat it, presumably leaving the King in the North drowning and soon to be recruited to the army of the dead.

Somehow, Jon pulls himself out of the lake, which is only just a slightly better position to be in since he’s wet, alone, and still surrounded by an undead army. But he’s saved by his uncle, Benjen Stark, who you’ll remember is the Nice Zombie who saved Bran in Season 6. He makes it back to Eastwatch, and somehow no major characters died in that ludicrous battle.

Despite the dragon vs. zombies extravaganza, there are still nine minutes left in the episode, which begin with Sansa sneaking into Arya’s room to find her unsheathed Valyrian steel dagger lying ominously on her table and a bag full of faces of Arya’s dead enemies. Arya, now a swaggering uber-assassin, is scary as shit as she threatens to skin Sansa and forces her to play the game of faces before leaving her with a wink and the dagger.

Daenerys tells Jon that she’s now fully radicalized against the army of the dead after they claimed one of her babies. Jon, whose scars are now exposed, tells Dany that he wants to bend the knee and the viewer is made to believe that they’re about to bone.

They do not bone.

Instead, the episode ends with the Night King’s army corps of engineers dragging the dead dragon (pretty sure it’s Viserion) out of the lake. The Night King gently touches his head and an icy blue eye opens, and that means we got a dang frost dragon on our hands, folks.

Dany now has two dragons and also has to fight against a resurrected ice dragon someday when they inevitably fight the army of the dead. I don’t think Cersei is going to listen when they show her the wight, but at least Dany knows the stakes.

the ice spear hit his neck while he was igniting his flames. think if you shot high pressure flames through a tube and punctured if from the side.  the flame would spray out. that's flame shooting out the side of his neck like an exhaust.  after the flame went out, the rest is blood.

All of a sudden, IT’S DRAGON TIME! Ice and fire are finally battling and it goddamn rules, even if it is the sort of deus ex machina device that the show staunchly refused until Season 7. Dany melts a ton of zombies and things appear to be working out until the Night King grabs a javelin and hurls that fucker into one of the minor dragons, sending it crashing into the ice. Big Crossbow may not have been enough to stop a dragon, but the Night King just Randy Johnsons that fucker right out of the sky. It’s hard to watch as its eyes close and it slips into the lake, dead as bricks.

That's because they are ahead of where the books are and the author of the books only gave them the main story points so all the filler and politicking and story points are unknown to the people doing the tv show.  That's why it's just major story points happening and nothing in between.  Next season will be much of the same.  The first 6 seasons they had the books as a guide and could go into all the minutia and detail of the world, but now it's just the main story points that they have to go off for the show.

budget, the main 5(john, danny and the 3 lannisters) make close to 3mil a year and most others making close to 1 mil an episode, not to mention the cgi, the elaborate sets and shit. they can just reset with a spin off with cheaper actors on long contracts and milk this cash cow for all it's worth

True but a giant spear launched from a giant crossbow only cause a minor wound in the dragon.

The whole walking white army stops pursuing  because the ice breaks and they all wait patiently until it's frozen again yet the javelin throwing white who can take out a flying dragon with pin point accuracy doesn't kill off a group of men trapped on an island?

There is no continuity.

I thought the same thing.  Why not just peg them off instead of waiting all night plus why didn't she just burn the main guys alive.  All lame shit.  The story is just too rushed now and lacks what made this show good.

The spear impacted the shoulder, the ice javelin hit it right in the throat/belly where the fire is generated.  Obvious difference.

The best director is the guy who did the Hardhome and Battle of the Bastards episodes.  No way in hell he doesn't handle the major battles next season

Dothraki vs Dead @ Winterfell - Night King 1-0
Unsullied vs Dead @ The Vale - Night King 2-0
Euron vs  Dead Dragon @ Sea - Night King 3-0 
Gold Co (They will break their 1st contract b/c of Jorah) vs Dead @ King's Landing = Night King 4-0

Based on your posts, everything is about sucking ass (dudes).

But agree on The Shield - best series ever.  Not one bad episode.

But GoT is pretty great.  It's gone to a little more action-ish lately, but still good.

Thanks for indulging me.

I've not seen Ray Donovan, but I don't doubt it's good; the premise is cool and it has an outstanding cast (Paula Malcomsen is extremely underrated -- *amazing* on Deadwood!).  Personally, I have a hard time seeing how GoT flat-out sucks in comparison, but meh -- no biggie.

As for Coronation Street, I admit that I've a hard time taking a soap opera seriously.  What makes it better than GoT in your estimation?

As for lots of older shows, I don't really see it.  Deadwood and Rome were incredible, but it's hard to compare any of those.  Carnivale was great but its early cancelation ruined its ending.  The Sopranos was very good but very full of itself and, I felt, totally overrated:  the symbolism was always totally ham-fisted, many characters were simply "there" to serve as foils for and contrasts against Big T, realism was ridiculously lacking at many points (remember how Moltisanti would literally *throw* his gun forward when he shot at someone?), and talk about convenience!  There were multiple instances in which Tony should've been crucified by LEO and he escaped imprisonment ... because :/

What does that leave? :). Some of the Star Trek series were good.  TNG had some great stuff for TV, especially at the time.  Babylon 5 did some good storytelling in spite of the awful CGI and sometimes questionable acting.  

Sherif, I'm familiar with your posts, so I know you're no dummy.  I am genuinely interested in learning about your old favs and why you think they're vastly superior to Thrones.

I tried watching one episode (I may have made it 5 minutes) but could not get into it.  Kinda like I tried watching "Stranger Things" and in spite of Winona Ryder (whom I find attractive) I could not get past the first episode.  Admittedly, I made it further with "Stranger Things" than I did with GoT. I just couldn't stand GoT.   

Lots of people enjoy it, so that's not to say it's not a good show, just not for me.  Especially the whole midget thing.  Not a fan of midgies, LOL!.  It's the same with that show "Spartacus" or any other series on Rome or the like.  I don't have any desire to view debauchery on any level and I'm told Spartacus was full of it.  For me, I prefer films such as "Gladiator" and the original "Ben Hur".

The immensely strong and wonderfully kind Hafthór “Thor” Björnsson aka The Mountain from Game of Thrones quite humorously offered to carry strangers around in a large front facing baby carrier as a show of his immense strength in an amusing ad for the Norwegian grocery company Kolonial. Thor took an outspoken elder woman to feed the ducks, while a man in a suit asked to be dropped off at home.

It split off from the books a few seasons back.

I'm reading the books now, on book 4, and some things in the series are done better, obviously a lot more streamlined but they have done a great job in keeping the best and most important parts of the story.

The 2 best directors weren't available for season 7, so it was a 75% hack job. Nutter and Spochnik are gold for episodes 1-5.  If there is going to be a hack job, it will be D and D in the finale.

HBO shuts down Iron Throne access in Queens after fans bombard Fort Totten resulting in 7-hour waits to see it


https://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv/ny-hbo-shuts-down-iron-throne-queens-20190401-bnmzpxwkzjb75e2deg24ipxhgu-story.html?utm_source=kw&kwp_0=1184484&kwp_4=3788235&kwp_1=1581530&fbclid=IwAR3a8sesGAhxuw89SdIghrrRNXY8lcgTUaKw_vvGxce6apP9yR2TCl95Qhc

Like an army of Dothraki warriors, so many “Game of Thrones” fans descended on Fort Totten in Queens that HBO was forced to prematurely shut down access to the Iron Throne replica it placed there two days in a row.

The throne, one of six hidden around the world by the cable network to promote the upcoming eighth and last season of the hit fantasy series, was first discovered Thursday by a die-hard Queens fan. HBO vowed that the seat would stay there through Monday night at 7 p.m. so that other wannabe kings and queens could pose for shots there — but they didn’t anticipate the crowds and insane wait times.

The line was closed Monday at 1:30 p.m., more than five hours before it was supposed to, due to long waits. “They closed the line earlier today due to the overwhelming amount of people that showed up,” an HBO rep told the Daily News.

On Sunday, it was the same deal. “There was a 7-hour wait time yesterday and to ensure that everyone in line was able to make it to the throne, we shut down the line,” a different HBO rep said.

Furious fans who traveled long distances for a glimpse only to be turned away begged for more time.

“You guys should extend the event through next weekend,” Alexandra Eide tweeted at the official “Game of Thrones” account. “Went all the way to Fort Totten only to be turned away. Such a disappointment.”

Another fan tweeted Sunday, “My friends and I drove 6 HOURS leaving our house at 345 a.m. to get to see the throne and it’s shut down!...We got there at 945 a.m. to be turned away and watch other people get to leave and come back as long as they left I.D.”

HBO told The News that there are no plans to extend the throne’s stay in New York.

The replica was placed in the fort located in the Bay Terrace neighborhood of northern Queens as part of its Quest For The Throne promotion. The other five thrones were found in England, Sweden, Brazil, Spain and Canada as part of the global scavenger hunt.

Melanie Joaquin, 22, suspected the final throne would be hidden at the fort before HBO even posted its hint Thursday morning on the show’s Twitter account.

“If you just look at it, it looks like ‘Game of Thrones’ should be shot there,” Joaquin told the Daily News. “Movies and TV shows film there all the time. Once you see it, you don’t really forget it. I was just surprised that I got there first.”

Once HBO posted an image of the throne’s hiding spot in Fort Totten, Joaquin headed there as fast as she could and snuck through a fence to get to it before anyone else.

“I knew exactly where it was because every year the park has a haunted house and it’s in that battery,” Joaquin, a shared-office-space manager, said. “The battery is basically where all the cannons were held and it’s really creepy and it’s one of those places in New York City that you never forget. You can see spots in the wall that have cannonball dents.”

“Game of Thrones” returns April 14 for six final episodes. On the show, the person who sits on the Iron Throne rules over the Seven Kingdoms in the fictional continent of Westeros.

It split off from the books a few seasons back.

I'm reading the books now, on book 4, and some things in the series are done better, obviously a lot more streamlined but they have done a great job in keeping the best and most important parts of the story.


Rewatched season 7 and you're right, they did a pretty good job with. But the beyond the wall bit with Jon and his crew trapped by the Night King, and rescued by Daen and her dragons was a mess. They almost jumped the shark there and given that this is fantasy, that takes some doing!

Trust me, brother:  it is a very, very good show.  I would not have started this thread otherwise.  (Yeah, I forgot my log in stuff for DCM.  I'm getting old :)

Besides, the dwarf is actually one of the cast's standout performers.  Everyone is good, as they g-damned well should be:  each episode has the production value of a big Hollyweird flick (eh, minute per minute, anyway).  If I were a part of such a show, making those kind of ducats, I'd let myself be horse whipped before reporting to the set each day.  That's not my thing, but at least I would be laughing whilst I limped to the bank :lol:

Jokes aside, I know you are smart.  The show isn't some uber-cerebral fare, but it's not for dummies, either.  Give a few episodes a shot, starting from the beginning.  It might not rock your world, but in an era of the Cardassians and their precious she-thing dad/mom/creature Bruised Gender, feminist reimagingings of every other fucking film or show and SJW programming in general, GoT is refreshing.  It does feature some women in very high places, but they are white, beautiful, and wouldn't be where they are without the swords and council of...gulp...care I say?  WHITE MEN?

It's true.  Granted, there are very prominent folk of other ethnicities.  Jason Mamoa's Drogo, or Grey Worm, or a host of others...but this is definitely not a "white people suck" show.  I call it R-rated Tolkien, only with better characters.

Give it a shot.  If you are truly disappointed, hit me up if you're ever in my neck of the woods, and the steak will be on me.  Or my wife's credit card, anyway ;)~

Valonquar = Little Brother

Cersei always thought that it was Tyrion who was the Valonquar that was going to strangle her to death (which is why she tried to get him killed so many times).

But in actuality, Jamie is actually a few minutes younger than Tyrion, so i wouldn't rule out Jamie killing Cersei at the end , strangling her.

Here are the candidates to strangle Cersei:  Tyrion, Jamie, Arya, and Euron.  Too simple for her story to end like that. It will be on the level of Hobor and Shireen.  Tommen is the only one who can't strangle her metaphorically. My money is on that little brother

When Tommen killed himself though, it made Cersei felt like she was strangled slowly.

Arya will do it but then get squeezed to death by the mountain.

arya will most likely kill the mountain with the dagger after he mortally wounds the hound who she gives the gift of mercy.  odds are arya loses her right hand in the fight.  forel, brienne and the waif all went after, held or struck her right hand/arm repeatedly throughout the series.  that's why she flips it to the left hand and goes for the face in the sparring with brienne. why is arya right hand so important in all the scenes?  LOL, they even did a second pause when Brienne grabbed it.

A theory is that Arya strikes Mountain in the Eye which opens up for The Hound to do a finishing blow.

the 2 best directors can only jam so much content into 5 episodes.  HBO should have forced Dan and Dave to complete the story with 10 full-length episodes.  Nutter did a pretty good job vs the bullshit in season 7.

Only 6 Eps final season.  The first two eps are around 50 mins, but the final four are 80+ so more content can be crammed in.

Next episode will be more dialogue and tieing of storylines, the battle/siege of Winterfell is in Episode 3.

Thanks, brother!  I may one day give it a try.  I finally made it through the weirdness of  a show called "Penny Dreadful".  It was painful sometimes as I am far from a fan of outright debauchery.  I tried the first episode of "Stranger Things" but only because of Winona Ryder.  Too weird for me.

He is "Romero-fied" but he is loyal to Qyburn/Cersei.

He is not a Romero under Night Kings command.

I suspect Qyburn/Frankenstein has 100 % control over Strongman though, if Cersei ever should threaten him.

I've been gone 20 days on a gig to Singapore and  Australia and couldn't get it there... just watched the first episode.

Already I am tired of Arya and her little smirk.  It's become an all time thing in every scene she is in it seems.
Also, really didn't like the dragon riding scene that was a rip off of Harry Potter learning to fly his broom.

The dragon mommy being all kissy and cuddly sucks too.  She's a conquering hard ass.  She needs to stop the giggly school girl shit right away.

Will watch the second episode tonight.  Hope it is better.

One thing for sure.... Bran obviously has access to some primo grade smoke.   All kind of shit and chaos going on around him and he is just sitting there zoned out... staring creepily into space...

The Three Eyed Raven would be a great name for a neighborhood head shop.

Thing that pisses me off about him is that he sits there and is supposed to be so wise and all seeing, yet he never tells anyone anything of relevancy.  Speaks in riddles and cryptic clues.  I would throttle the bitch.  "Dude spit it out... WTF you know....  we gonna win?  Lose?  Is Tom Brady retiring?  WHAT????"

Reason he sits in shock and paralyzation is because he had a vision of Kai Greene's grapefruit-routine.

It plays continously before his eyes as he sees the Past, the Present, and the Future.

It has scarred him.

You were oh so correct regarding the Dothraki!

Unsullied did what they were raised to do, best defence-line and bodyguards ever.

Brute force doesn't work against the Whites, need to use the brain, subtlety and strategy.

Good episode and an impressive battle.

My only question now is how well will Jon Snow, Daenerys and the Lannister brothers do against Cersei's army given that the army of the north has been practically decimated?

I know Daenerys seems to have 1 dragon left, which is pretty powerful given that the other army is made up of "the living", but as we've seen before, dragons can be killed and without too much difficulty if done correctly. But what about actual surviving men from the north's army? The Dothraki were erased. The unsullied were left to what, 15-20 men? Most of the northerners that fought were also killed. So how do they do it now?

I'm presume the show will probably twist it to show that they still have a substantial number of men, but it certainly didn't look like it by the end of that episode.

It looks like in the preview for the next episode that the other dragon is still alive. She left another army in one of those cities she conquered earlier in the series.

So you're saying that the dragon Jon Snow was flying on is still alive? I thought it went belly down into the ground during the episode, no?

Also, which army do you speak of? I can only remember the Dothraki + unsullied. Was there another and, if so, do you remember who/where?

I don't know to what extent Bran is able to take over other creature's bodies (you know the whole eye's rolled back and now I am able to take over ravens or hodor) and whether it's limited to only the living, but I was hoping he would have taken over the night/dead dragon and given the army of the dead some trouble.

The Unsullied were 3 lines deep.  Most of the last line evacuated, which would be about 2000-3000 out of 11,700 for show purposes. I'm going to go with about 200-300 Dothraki (50,000 charged) on horseback and foot came back with Jorah.  Both dragons lived but were banged up.

If I'm from Essos, I'm out. The hell with Dany and her Westeros war.  Cersei will never go to that part of the world.

Mels time was up probably.

No purpose to go on now that it was finished.

She was already ancient and just kept on going due to the Prophecy.

With Night King gone, maybe she felt she had no other purpose anymore.

-The giant rampaging actual Giant is killed by a 10 year old 50 pound girl.
-The best dragon pilot they have is a blonde bimbo with dreadlocks.
-The best tactician the good guys have is a lady who can start fires with her mind.
-One of the best warriors the good guys have is a tall lady who looks like a man and the guy with the red beard wants to fuck her.

Why did one guy even show up to fight? They didn't do shit.

Something to think about...

The Night King turned the dragon and some others just by touching them.   He touched Arya for a long time.

Jon Snow died once and was brought back.  He has the touch of death still about him.   
The Mountain - I don't know if he is undead, dead and brought back, or somewhere inbetween in limbo...  a prime target for the Night King to manipulate if his condition allowed it.

Just watch Mel get brought back and be an old lady running around wrecking shit.

Friends already have a betting pool going on who will be the one to kill Cersei.  (If she dies that is).

Show is over.  All I want is for Grey Worm and Missandei to return to the Summer Isles. I don't care who else dies or wins the throne.  There is no need for war at King's Landing bc Arya can take a face and murder Cercei, Euron and GC Commander in their sleep.

I'm starting to lean on Arya being the one that kills Cersei. I think she might penetrate king's landing with her face changing tricks and slowly make her way to Cersei until she kills her under the guise of another person (possibly Tyrion or Jaime - still allowing for Valonqar prophecy to be fulfilled, by way of deception). The queen already had ordered the death of one of her brothers via crossbow, so it wouldn't surprise me if she does in fact decide to kill one of them, likely Tyrion, leaving Jaime to possibly then kill Cersei or Arya to do it with Tyrion's face on.

Those are the only logical ways I can see Cersei getting killed. I think Daenerys is finished. Her armies have practically been decimated, regardless of what Jon Snow is slowly bringing over and she's down to just one dragon, but they now have the tools to kill said dragon, which is causing said dragon to stay benched in the sidelines.

I don't think they will have Arya kill the Night King AND Cersei.  I think it will be Jamie.

Arya might mercy kill the Hound after he's wounded in the Claegenbowl.

Jamie will strangle Cersei when her guard is down (just the two of them in bed etc).


Arya will help Hound kill Mountain (distract Mountain by stabbing him in eye after Hound is mortally wounded so Hound can deliver the final blow)

A theory is that Arya strikes Mountain in the Eye which opens up for The Hound to do a finishing blow.

Hound couldn't manage Mountain all by himself, the roided zombie that he now is.

Arya will do it but then get squeezed to death by the mountain.

This was the Mormont death scene.

What type of witchcraft do you practice that correctly predicts deaths but of the wrong people?

The dudes fighting for coins are no mere dudes though.

They have trained "in the streets" (with Darren Avey) since they were young and have black belts in Tapout, UFC, Getbig and Bellator.

It sounds like they filmed several endings (like five at least) and various other fake scenes and other than the showrunners themselves, no one, not even the cast, knows for sure how it's going to end until it actually airs.

I have a hard time believing they'd go to that much trouble and cost but GOT basically prints money so maybe they did.

- Night king waits 1000 years to launch his invasion
- The show spends 8 entire years building up and teasing the white walker invasion
- Raises 100,000 dead to add to his army
- Adds undead ice giants to his collection
- Kills fully grown dragon with a spear throw and adds it to his army as an undead flying beast
- Demolishes an 8000-year-old ancient magically enchanted ice wall
- Wrecks Winterfell without that much effort
- Surrounds the Raven who can see any event in history with all of his undead Ice walkers surrounding him!
.....
(Teenager magically teleports out of nowhere to stab him with a 2.3-inch dagger with a knife trick an 8-year-old could learn in minutes and kills the entire undead army, ice dragons, and white walkers)
Well.. there goes logic ... and the plot ... and the magic of George RR Martins entire story...

This episode was good even though the show has turned into the Dungeons and Dragons equivalent of a comic book movie. Mostly flash and sizzle with mediocre substance. It's going to end exactly how the spoilers predict.
 
I like it and still hold it in high regard, but I can't see it being a series I could sit through again. The repeatablity factor that the best series have, seems lost with this one.

You're being waaaaay too generous. This episode was hysterically bad. I couldn't stop laughing at how stupid these characters have become. The whole season  was rushed. Where did all this money for the episodes go? I dont have a clue.

As far as I'm.concerned the battle.of the bastatds destroyed this in the action department.

Regarding writing...theres no comparison to the first 4 seasons.

As earlier stated, it isn't Georges sourcematerial anymore, it's Dumb and Dumber making up stuff as they go.

Maybe this should work, no wait, i got an idea, how about this? Yeah that's it! Let's make Arya kill the King! Oh wait! I have another idea! etc etc


I enjoyed Season 1 - 6 very much though.

It doesn't matter, nothing matters.  I'll just live with Jamie and Cersei leaving the world together.  BTW, excellent visuals and battle directing by Miguel again.  

Dany went mad over ringing bells, just unbelievable. That's some Venom BS.  Phuck Dan and Dave.

History repeated itself, mad king to now mad queen. Both trying to burn the city down to ashes. She cracked. Rightfully so, she lost 2 of her dragons, missandei, Ser Jorah Mormont and the bulk of her dothraki and unsullied in helping Jon and the northerners to then feel unappreciated/distrusted by the people of the north and king's landing. Not to mention that the night before, when Jon should have serviced her and admitted that she is his queen, he couldn't get it up and she in turn said, "Let it be fear then". So she said fuck it and went ape shit. Not the best writing, I'll concede that. But then again, as we already know, this is what the showrunners are going with in light of not having source material from the mad author himself George RR Martin.

I think it was visually, one of the best episodes of the season. The action was great, the music was very good and it sets up the last episode nicely. Either Jon Snow or Arya kills Daenerys. Would be great if Tyrion does it, but tough to say. For my conspiracy, I'm still holding on to Arya being the one that kills Daenerys. Melisandre did say to Arya that her destiny was to close green eyes forever and Daenerys does have green eyes.

Also, is it me, or does it look like snow is both stabbing her in the heart and stabbing her through the groin?

Arya is an excellent archer, will be the one to shoot Drogon in the eye.  I thought they were setting that up during the episode.  Dany will name Sansa to her kill list, which will force Jon to kill her.  Dany eyes should be a shade of purple.  No more eyes games with Mel and Arya.  Ops Drogon still has to eat someone, and Tyrion is bite size.

This was a great episode in isolation if you assume Danaerys's "turn" was well set up on the previous 7.5 seasons.  But it wasn't so the whole thing just makes no sense to me.  

I don't understand the arcs of most of the main characters now or the point of the whole story overall.  Jon will probably kill her next episode and it will be the only thing of any consequence he's done all season.  There will likely be some sort of fantastical surprising twist next week but it's damaged beyond repair at this point.

You sum it up perfectly.

Danaery's is portrayed as being an intolerable ruler because she wants to go to war with Cersei, which everyone was on board with until they defeated the Night King.  Then it became preposterous to immediately go into war.....

She lays all her plans to the side, everyone she trusted betrays her, save for Gray Worm/the unsullied, and she loses everyone important to her and now she is an "insane tyrant"? It really makes little sense.

As do alot of the character choices.

And why did they have the Euron and Jamie scene only for Jamie to finally meet with Cersei and have their bitter sweet moment? After his wounds Jamie should have been clutching to life and died as Cersei found him. Her character recieved an easy death when the whole series was a build up to seeing her get justice.

The season has been ok but it has not lived up to expectations.

Tyrion will end up killing Dany.  We expect Jon to and Arya is done. She did the night king. That’s enough. I would love to see Sansa kill Dany but I think Tyrion will get ultimate revenge and save Jon’s life while sacrificing himself. Tyrion will kill the mad queen as Jamie killed the mad King.

They really should've flipped the battles. They did all this ridiculous nonsense like turning Euron into a dragon-slaying sharpshooter( who apparently commands an invisible fleet) just to create unearned tension during the final battle and having Dany's court fall apart.  All the wind got knocked out of the series with the fall of the night king, so this final game of thrones not only feels rushed, but it's downright absurd.


If they flipped the battles, then they could have had a satisfying, grounded conclusion for a lot of the characters with the King's Landing battle, then they could've  had more realistic dissension among Dany's court, a great battle in the north that made sense closer to the finale and wrapped things up without turning everything into a shitshow just so viewers would still be emotionally invested.

I agree 100%.

The night king was the  bigger threat by far and the fact that they made relatively light work of him should have made Dany's council realize any other battle would not be a war in comparison.

Also, as the text message meme alluded, they never did the 3 dragons justice if 1 could DESTROY  a fleet of ships and the largest city in the world on own.

Nothing about this season makes sense. At the end of  the seventh season, I thought this was possibly the best drama in the history of television. By the 4th episode of season  8, I wasn't even sure if I wanted to stick with 2 more episodes to get to the finale. I seriously bowed the fuck out after the fall of the night king. It's not uncommon for really popular shows to get really divisive with their finales. Everybody hated the endings for LOST, The Sopranos , Seinfeld, etc. So I keep asking myself  if this is really ruining the show for me or if the show was more good than bad. I guess the difference for me is that the journey just seems like a complete waste with the way everything is being wrapped up.

Martha then reveals that she worried Dany's soldiers were watching her, which prompted the following exchange:

It sucked.  I have defended it a lot but this last episode is beyond me.

There is no way Cersei deserved to be killed off that lame.
Jamie either.  I was hoping he would kill her in blind rage over being pregnant by Euron and then find out it was a lie as he lay suffering from his own wounds and put a dagger through his own heart to end it.

Hound vs Mountain started off good, but went to the shits rather fast.  Come on... no decisive winner just a fall into flames for both.

How much fucking fire can a dragon produce?  I remember in Reign of Fire, they portrayed dragons as having chemicals that they could spit and it would burst into flames when exposed to oxygen.  I am sure the method here is different but seriously... that dragon should have been gasping like an a rapist with asthma by the time he did have of that.  Needed to lay down for a nap or something.

Guess we have to wait until the next episode to see how Bronn of Blackwater made out with his scheme and hustle of playing both sides.

Arya will probably kill the last dragon with the scorpion prototype model located in the basement or wherever it was the first time they showed it.  (When they fired it through the skull fossil of a past dragon.)

Bran will warg into the last dragon as Dany is on it and crash it into the castle killing Dany.  And where it will find Arya waiting with the basement scorpion.

Oh well... we will soon see.  There is an online petition of people demanind this season be redone.

What we know: Game of Thrones director Miguel Sapochnik (“Battle of the Bastards,” "HardHome," “The Winds of Winter,” “The Long Night,” and “The Bells”) is set to direct the pilot. Expect blood.

Lay down your bets on who ends up on the throne after tonight.

My guess is a twist that Jon ends up killing Dany and passing the throne to Sansa.  Who keeps Tyrion has the Hand of the King and they decide to banish Jon from the kingdom as punishment. 

Jon goes up to the North and starts to rebuild the wall.   Ghost refuses to acknowledge Jon ever again.

Or my dark horse pick is that Ser Brienne of Tarth will slay Dany over revenge for Jamie losing his life due to her city burning rampage.  Throne goes to Jon and Ser Brienne honor Jamie by wearing the Queenslayer title like Jamie wore the Kingslayer title.

Bran is actually controlled by the 3 eyed Raven who is a Targaryen bastard, Brendan Rivers, who would have a vendetta against King's Landing. He warged Dany and/or Drogon or did a Hodor on Dany in the past, which made her respond to the "Bells". Bran aka Rivers wins the throne.  There has to be a twist to all this nonsense.

The ending was leaked a while back (it's pretty shitty). Same person leaked details of episode 3, 4 and 5 and they were 100% accurate.

The only good thing with them messing up the last couple of seasons is that we will likely get a reboot in 20 years time and they can put together a better ending (hopefully from source material)

I hope I am wrong but I suspect they will go for a more "modern" version and call it "Gonad...The Foreskinian".  Gonad must be black and gay and hate whitey except when he wishes to be a power bottom and...ad nauseam.  Robert E. Howard is widely considered the father of the sword and sorcery genre as Edgar Rice Burroughs is thought of as the sire of the written world of Science Fiction/Fantasy.

I read the books, including the ones written by Robert Jordan, author of "The Drago Reborn" series.  I had to stop that series at book eight as it was just too much.  Never went past that number eight as I lost interest.  

I have little faith in the majority of today's producers and directors.  If they can weasel in some PC agenda, they will do so even if it means lubing their readers minds with AnalEze.  I hate the modern world.

It was the first time watching GoT that I just wished the episode would end. I considered leaving part way through numerous times but I was worried I might miss something. GoT is not a feel good story. The turned it into Disney bullshit.   The worst part is the biggest story of the night king was never explained. Who was he.  Why did he have such strength? I did read that GRRM said that a key character was killed off early that was needed to explain the storyline.  But still.

WHAT A LAME BULLSHIT ENDING!  PHUCK THE STARKS!

1. Where did all the Unsullied and Dothraki come from in Ep 6? Instant respawn?

All their Fiery Weapons got lit down during the Night King battle, and but a few Dothraki retreated.

Are they implying that Dany saved an even bigger horde somewhere? If so, she didnt regard the Night King as an enough threat to use all her manpower.

The Dothraki left standing in ep 3 was but a few ranks.

Looked like she had even MORE dothraki and Unsullied in ep 6! IDIOCY!

2. Game of Thrones is loosely based on War of the Roses. Let the Unsullied and Dothraki settle in Highgarden. Yeah, that's a great idea for upcoming years. No restless warriors at all. IDIOCY!

3. Drogon not only removed the body but also the murderweapon. What man would then confess to the Unsullied that he slayed Dany?

No sense of wellbeing at all, when you merely could leave the throne-area and say you don't know where she is later when she is not to be found.

Instead admitting? No sane man would do that.

4. "Sit down Uncle"

5. Daario Naharis was never hear from again. :D

6. Good series turned into Disney.

IDIOCY!

They sure needed to wrap up quick and it showed.

Totally uncharacteristic of the characters. Acted out of place.

People following a good series from Season 1-7 (for years) and they get this?

However season 8 overall was a mess. They rushed it. 7 seasons leading up to this epic battle with the dead and it's over in 1 hour? Utter nonsense.

Wish the 6 kingdoms had all stayed independent...like Sansas. That would be ideal.

Well I came close in my predictions.  Sansa did end up on the throne, albeit the throne of the North which is no longer part of the Seven Kingdoms.
Jon also got banished to the Night Watch again.  Tyrion is The Hand again.

It sucked.  However, the best part of the entire episode was Arya telling that horse faced bull dyke that if she said one more word about killing Jon, she was going to cut her throat.   I clapped.  (She will probably get her own spin off series and they will completely destroy it)

What you say makes sense, but look at the overall investment some people have placed into this show.

You pay for a subscription.

You devote endless hours to each of the 8 seasons. Hours that you could have invested doing other things.

It's also a somewhat emotional investment, as you get vested in these characters. Much like a good book can make you happy or sad when the protagonist dies, same idea here.

Some people even bought/read the books to add more color to the story.

You pay attention to the plots and build upon the clues the show runners gave you throughout the various episodes/seasons.

Then, at the end, they deliver a very weak ending that lacked much of the wonder the rest of the episodes had.

Truthfully, it could have ended during the penultimate episode and it would have been perfect.

That said, it's just a show and like many shows, there's no guarantee that it will have a phenomenal ending regardless of the build-up.

What you say makes sense, but look at the overall investment some people have placed into this show.

You pay for a subscription.


I pay a subscription for HBO NOW and there are more than enough movies and shows to get your money's worth. So, even if the last season of GOT was bad, there is still more than enough content to satisfy one's needs. And, if people only subscribed to HBO NOW for GOT, that is their problems.

You devote endless hours to each of the 8 seasons. Hours that you could have invested doing other things.


That's their problem.

Then, at the end, they deliver a very weak ending that lacked much of the wonder the rest of the episodes had.

Fair enough. But, HBO NOW never promised a specific type of ending. You watch at your own risk. I don't think people should bitch and moan about an ending they do not like when the directors or producers never promised anything to begin with.

Truthfully, it could have ended during the penultimate episode and it would have been perfect. That said, it's just a show and like many shows, there's no guarantee that it will have a phenomenal ending regardless of the build-up.

And now that HBO TV has finally aired the new documentary about the final season, it's time to dive deep on all of the behind-the-scenes action that took place while filming these last episodes.

What It’s Like to Write a Finale Your Fans Hate

Battlestar Galactica showrunner Ronald D. Moore has some advice for the writers of Game of Thrones.

Game of Thrones climaxes with Tyrion Lannister talking the lords of Westeros into making the most consequential decision of the entire series. Is it the right one? Not even Tyrion can say for certain: “Ask me again in 10 years.”

It’s been 10 years since the final episode of a beloved genre series whose conclusion enraged some of its most ardent fans. A few months later, i09 modestly asked “Did Battlestar Galactica Have The Worst Ending In Science Fiction History?” (For once, Betteridge’s Law did not apply.) Time has been kinder to Battlestar’s ending, but it’s still bitterly divisive. What’s it like to work on something for years and write an ending that has people calling for your head? We asked Ronald D. Moore, Battlestar’s showrunner and the writer of the fateful finale, how it sits with him a decade later, and whether he has any words to help Game of Thrones’ David Benioff and D.B. Weiss weather the storm.

So Jon killed Dany because she said those who didnt agree with what she thought was good dont get a choice.

When Sam suggests at the council meeting that everyone should have a choice to pick a ruler hes laughed at.

So not letting the people have a choice will get you killed and later not letting people have a choice is okay....

this was the first time I was actually triggered by a tv show.

it was so hard to fuck up the ending but D&D managed to do so. There was literally nothing good about the delivery of the story/writing of season 8 (the visuals, music and acting were on point though).

apparently, hbo offered them 2-3 more seasons but they were being divas. They were thinking about that short term star wars money but they didn't realise they'll always have this fuck up hanging over theirs heads for the rest of their careers.

DOA


The original Game of Thrones series quickly became a massive hit for HBO after launching in 2011 and eventually went on to become the premium network’s biggest series in history. Following the record-breaking final season earlier this year, HBO moved several prequel and spinoff ideas into various stages of development. It looked as though the future of HBO was going to be rooted in the Game of Thrones franchise, but that seems a lot less likely now. The untitled Game of Thrones prequel series starring Naomi Watts, which had already shot a pilot, was passed on by the network, killing the story before it even started.

According to a new report from Deadline, HBO has opted not to move forward with the first Game of Thrones prequel series from writer Jane Goldman. Of the various Game of Thrones series at HBO, this prequel was easily the furthest along, meaning that the first spinoff probably won't actually air for some time.

This prequel was set to take place thousands of years before the events of the main Game of Thrones series, dealing with issues of power, race, and the introduction of the White Walkers. In addition to Watts, the cast of the prequel included Josh Whitehouse, Miranda Richardson, Jamie Campbell Bower, Toby Regbo, Georgie Henley, Alex Sharp, Naomi Ackie, Marquis Rodriguez, John Simms, Richard McCabe, John Heffernan, And Dixie Egerickx.

A second prequel was greenlit by HBO last month, this one much more closely tied to the original series. The pilot of this series comes from George RR Martin and Ryan Condal, and takes place about 300 years before Game of Thrones. It will reportedly focus on the fall of House Targaryen.

I've read some interesting takes that make the opposite argument. Grrm has said that the show's ending is basically what's going to happen in the books.  It's interesting that the show seemed to be broadcasting a different ending and D&D seemed to check out creatively a few seasons before the end, or right around the time Martin told them how his story wraps up. Obviously, they could've plotted their own conclusion, but I have been wondering lately if they were unhappy with the ending, too.

Game of Thrones' Jack Gleeson Returning to Acting After Six-Year TV Retirement

After six years off TV, Game of Thrones' King Joffrey is making his comeback. Translation? Jack Gleeson has his first TV role in six years since his Game of Thrones character was killed off in 2014.

Gleeson will appear in Out of Her Mind, a six-part comedy on BBC Two. Sara Pascoe wrote and will star in the series. The cast also includes Juliet Stevenson, Fiona Button, Cariad Lloyd, Adrian Edmonson, Navin Chowdhry, Sean Gilder, Tom Stuart, Scroobius Pip, Jumayn Hunter, Sheila Reid, Cash Holland, Lorraine Ashbourne and Cian Barry.

According to BBC Two, Out of Her Mind will explore heartbreak, family and how to survive both. The comedy will include a mix of animation as well as scientific explanation.

"Out of Her Mind is a direct expression of my mind. We've turned my brain into a theme-park, and everyone's invited! The cast are INCREDIBLE and I can't wait for people to see what we've made," Pascoe said in a statement.
Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Miles Ketley and Pascoe will executive producer. Catherine Gosling Fuller will produce the show, the Blaine Brothers will direct.

After his character's death on Game of Thrones, Gleeson said he intended to retire from acting.

"The answer isn't interesting or long-winded. I've been acting since age 8. I just stopped enjoying it as much as I used to. And now there's the prospect of doing it for a living, whereas up until now it was always something I did for recreation with my friends, or in the summer for some fun. I enjoyed it. When you make a living from something, it changes your relationship with it. It's not like I hate it, it's just not what I want to do," he told EW.

No premiere date for Out of Her Mind has been set yet.

I think it’s more them wanting to get a broader audience. It’s like the shows about Victorian times, and they’ve got blacks in high society. It’s almost as if they’re whitewashing history to appear woke. It seems backwards.
