still ok by todays standard but just saying. dei gay, woman and none white writers kinda ruined it

What was the point of having mr Apple-knight-sir show us his enourmous prosthetic penis? I realise GRRM is a fucking weirdo, but that just seemed unnecessary. The shitting scene I kind of get because it’s a reminder people have to do that and makes the world feel more gritty and real, but the gigantic penis just seemed forced and weird.

Aegon will ride the Green's other spare dragon instead.

Sunfyre swallowing Rhae whole was just an oversight on GRRM's part because he forgot he wrote Sunfyre as being too small for that. he didn't pay much attention to what he was doing while writing F&B and Condal is taking the heat for all the problems in the text.

Season one was a mess too. For every good moment there was a retarded one. It was aged ago, but I still remember the black gay guy escaping. Sir Christian Chole murdering some guy in a party like nothing. The old hag killing a bunch of people with her dragon. It was full of dumb shit. Admittedly it had some kino moments that made you power through though.

there never could have been a better version of season 1 because GRRM didn't bother finishing F&B as a real story, its just an outline.

therefore you're comparing everything Condal does to an imaginary idealized show that is never going to exist, never would have existed, and which GRRM never bothered to write.

it's like the retards who claim every GoT scene after 1 was bad, even though 1 also has stupid flaws, because 2+ had more actual deviations. its a way to one-up the general consensus that the show turned to shit after season 4 so you have a way to publically jerk yourselves off on forums.
>>
>>217810369
Am I the only one who would have preferred lower stakes? For such a straight story the plot feels unnecessarily convoluted. An anime tournament arc with Dunk beating a different nigga with his own backstory each episode to earn the respect of everyone would have been kino.

Outline or not, no one was forcing them to do retarded shit. Did GRRM put a gun on the head of Condal and forced him not to mention Daeron until the third season? Did he force HBO to put blacks in it? Or the girl boss angle? The foot fetish scene? HOTD is consistently going out of the way to make things worse than they could be.

>>217810911
>Did they ever show Dunk being actually nighted?
That's the exact point of his story, anon. It's never stated outright, but the narrative leans heavily on the fact that he was never knighted by Ser Arlan, yet Duncan embodies everything a true knight should be. Something, something, he represents an open rebellion against cynicism.
>>

you're retarded.
The lkngsguard are sworn to protect the king and his family. The king's grandsons are the accusers and Dunk is the accused. They're defending Aerion and Daeron, not Baelor.
>>
>>217810955
5 champions are chosen to defend the title, they cannot choose their opponent and can be challenged by anyone
Androw Ashford was one of the 5

I was also confused at first, but it makes sense under these rules they need Dunk to specifically come out and challenge Androw
>>
>>217810983
I admit I lurk 4chan while watching the show so I must have missed when they explained that. SANKIU!
>>
>>217810911
anon that's the point. Dunk is most likely a fake knight but it's what he does that matters more

it's the same idea GRRM communicated with Jaime Lannister, albeit with Dunk it's done in a more optimistic honest way. the actual values and duties of chivarly and justice and the Westerosi label of knight are often two different things. Dunk is a fake knight but follows the values and duties of knighthood more than many true knights like Meryn Trant do

As Hand of the King he has to be neutral but as a knight he believed Dunk was in the right, that's why he didn't abuse his powers and command the kingsguard to join Dunk but personally joined his side of his own volition.

he is not even the best character in his own show, Egg or Baelor would be, even Lyonel.
He is just a bumbling LG Paladin in the making, which makes him endearing compared to the usual assholes. But he has zero depths except for that "was he really knighted or is he lying?" bit which is frankly weaksauce as far as characterization goes.
I like him and the show tho.

Alright well here's the deal.
He knows Dunk is innocent. He knows Aerion is blackhearted villain. And yet he's letting Aerion do whatever he wants even though it means Dunk is probably going to die.

He has the power to bring about justice immediately but calling off the trail and ruling against Aerion. You know. Using his authority for good. But he doesn't. So what can I really say about this guy? He's a fucking doormat.

Slower paced and only two main characters. The entire season is basically at one location and it spends time on developing side character like Lionel, the apple dudes, the game master, the ashford daughter and the Targs. It's more character focused than big world spanning politics.

All comfy coded.

In the novel the seventh champion is the real stable boy who ran away to watch the games. The woman thought he was still home and Dunk assumed she meant Egg. In the show it doesn't really makes sense.

Thanks for posting the text. I didn't remember how it went in the book, what was the timeline of that moment.
Show so far was perfect. Why did they change the most important scene of the book? The scene is the whole point of Dunk's character: he wasn't knighted, but people see him as the truest knight of them all. The cheering of the people was what likely inspired the nobles to support Dunk, not the opposite.
I'm so tired of irrelevant changes in adaptations. A character likes color red, but let's make him like blue instead for no reason. But this is remove an important part of the character and story for no reason at all. I hope that they can fix it, but I don't see how. The moment to do it already passed. Arrogance of tv writers is what kills adaptations.

In the book the fact it is Baelor volunteering to fight for Duncan is supposed to be a big reveal, at first everyone thinks it is Valarr fighting for Duncan because Baelor didn't have any armour around so he had to borrow his son's, I guess they didn't go for that because Valarr is barely a character and the armour design is not that unique to be immediately recognised as valarr's

then bulk of the episode is the trial
then a couple more minutes afterwards of it all unwinding before you know, plop.
