Lion Heart 15,041 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I hate D&D even more. It's clear that once they got the Star Wars gig (for whatever reason), they just wanted to rush the series. ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othon 33,405 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 To be clear, I'm disappointed in the execution and not the larger narrative endpoint we arrived at here. Daenerys was always going to go insane. I've never understood her hardcore fans: she's always been power-hungry and brutal. The showrunners just didn't communicate effectively when she really snapped and what caused her to, and the roughly five minutes they allotted for the sequence involving her destroying the fleet and the ballistas relative to the forty minutes set aside for the fiery destruction of the city was ridiculous. Very few of the payoffs actually worked. Cersei's death felt anti-climatic, Arya came off as incompetent by inadvertently getting that mother and daughter killed, and the ease with which Daenerys destroyed the city's defenses after losing a dragon to the same exact fleet just last episode AND with half of her own army gone made little sense. Illogical plotting, lackluster character work. Not great. This show was always about strategy and scheming, a representation of the insidious nature of political systems driven by aristocratic self-interest rather than solidarity for the masses. They threw that out and went with spectacle instead tonight and, “shockingly,” it didn't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adarsh Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I heard some Katy stans say that Cersei would’ve survived if she had long hair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion Heart 15,041 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Jaime Lannister saying he doesn't care about millions of innocents despite the fact the killed the Mad King to PROTECT those same innocents not too long ago.

Eighteen 5,430 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 i liked the episode. i'm surprised a lot of people hate it. the one gripe i have is dany's character growth over the last few episodes. i know there is a sort of build up to where she is now psychologically, but there really is a kind of surprising escalation about it that takes place rather quickly. for example, dany killing all the innocent people as a means toward an end, in other words, to do it in order to take the iron throne is one thing, but to kill all those people for sport and after a surrender for good measure, that's kind of weird. you can make the argument that that's how a psychotic break looks like, and i guess you'd be right?

RoverLoader 1,254 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 After all that, that's how they killed off Cersei? Wow...talk about an anti climax. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatfoxyfeeling 13,006 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I can't, like what the **** was that episode? I'm so dissapointed. All the character deaths were anticlimactic, Cersei deserved an iconic death. Season 1-6 were brilliant, they weren't perfect but holy **** it's like watching a different show all together this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha. Even if some international channels don't have HBO as freely, it's still weird to me that some are allowed and some aren't.

Othon 33,405 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 What a lame send-off for Varys. The man who orchestrated so much of what happened in previous seasons killed off as if he were an irrelevant tertiary character, all because he (somehow) let himself be caught after writing a letter. God. They really blew it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
