Demitri_C Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 so I am abit late to the party and avoided this thread until I have seen all of Thrones my series 7 observations Cercei is dumb as feck, why would you put your own agenda when you can see the dead will wipe you out. i mean if the dragon queen with all her army and dragons is asking for help yet she can wipe your army out easily why would you still plot against them? The hound is one of my favourite characters hopefully he gets his revenge on the mountain episode 6 was so far fetched, firstly how does the dragon queen get there so quickly? how does the walker king manage to spear a dragon so easily? Did snow not think he could get a dragon to join the dead? i said to my girlfriend that if she takes a dragon one will die and join the dead army. littlefingers death was very satisfying (not as much as Ramseys) but it was excellently executed. i did think he was somehow going to weasel his way out. i think he should ahve been be headed though season 8 predictions Sansa will remain queen of Winterfell, if Jon takes control of all kingdoms I think Cercei will get killed within a few episodes next year by the dead king making her "the dead queen" this will make jamie join the snow/dany alliance and jamie will end up killing her before himself getting killed sam will end up being jon snows hand as i think davos will get killed next year i also think there will be a blood bath next season a lot of charchters will get killed off. i am looking forward to the hound and arya reunion. that will be interesting to see.

Tayls Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 See, Cercei turning into the white walker queen crossed my mind at one point. But the only thing that ruins that is this notion of Bran controlling the white walker king... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart arse alert But how would he have bee able to hit that dragon so easily. it was abit of a farce. the Lannisters are more skilled fighters and they couldn't get close to the dragons so how would he have? we dont know how skilled a fighter the dead king is yet just that they have an insane army 21 minutes ago, Tayls said: See, Cercei turning into the white walker queen crossed my mind at one point.

Surely there is no limit to his power? Also it shows that the humans underestimated his power too. They thought dragons would kick ass. But he f**ked that dragon up! Now the dragon is his bitch!

I'm thinking 10 mins of battle / 10 mins generic skirmishes or smaller duels / 10 mins of flirting, nudity and insest / 30 minutes of plotsplaining whilst looking at maps and a full hour of unproductive walking around. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too many with a story of the time they f***** a bear. His conversation with The Hound on their venture up North was hilarious. On 06/03/2018 at 20:56, Vive_La_Villa said: You're right mate. That is so unrealistic. As if a white walker king could kill a dragon with a spear! I had no issue with the Night's King taking out the dragon with his spear. It's not as if it's a small target and you'd hope that someone who can conjure storms and an army of dead is also fit and coordinated enough to throw a pass like a quarterback. What I didn't understand was how a bunch of dead who couldn't swim managed to secure chains to and hoist the dragon from the water. I am also unsure as to whether the dragon that is now under the control of the Night's King is breathing fire or ice or what. Say what you like about Cersei but the plot will find a way for her to impress with some unexpected display of wickedness. Don't know what to expect. Maybe there's scope for both Targaryen and Lannister to put aside their differences and unite under a common cause. Perhaps "Let's Unite In Our Fight Against The King of The Night And Then For Our Right To Incestuous Delights" can be their motto. I wonder if Arya is the warrior to take out The Mountain on behalf of The Hound? Thoroughly enjoying it all and look forward to the next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Only got to wait until April which is slightly better than expected as the last season started in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 It's weird how I've just totally checked out of this now. It was the best thing on telly for a while but the last couple of seasons have been so bad (season 7 was just rotten) that I've even stopped worrying about how much time I've sunk into the show. I strongly suspect S8 will just keep taking it in the direction of 6 and 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 We are very different people then. GoT was at its best when it was full of smouldering political tension, the characters had believable motivations and nobody was safe from dying. It's since turned into Michael Bay with tits and dragons with a collection of immortal heroes and villains. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) i think its become a series of really good set pieces and moments but the stuff leading up to it has become a bit shit with a lot of rushed filler, before it had everything FWIW i think it peaked with hardhome, been on the slide ever since Edited November 28, 2018 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 For me its really not that great of a show. Wont be ever listed in a Top 10 for me. Its watchable but also quite forgettable by the next episode but you can see a dip in quality. Think it was Season 5 or 6 that nothing happens in most of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mean to be a 'book clearing in the woods' but basically it was much better following the source material then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 The drop in quality as the series progresses is fairly faithful to the books, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 i think there is a wider discussion as to what the series has actually done for TV, the money spent on it, the money it has made, the way its a truly global series, the quality of the production and visuals etc etc the success of this show is mental its not as good as the sopranos but im close to saying its as important, it just feels to me at times to be the pinnacle of TV, not for writing or acting which the sopranos the wire mad men etc were but for scale and production, it does stuff that hollywood cant touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
