>>217812049
>>217812076>when you hear about inbred Targ degeneracy
the fossoways are a blackfyre house aren't they?
>What if Baratheon was a sex god who wants Dunk
>>217812116don't bring hess into this, what if the laughing storm was a chill mofo who likes to drink and party and is an all round great dude
>>217812110Why would they align with dragons?
who the fuck is ser stevron?
>Dunk is shown to be honorable to a fault and not lie>Pretending to be a knight would be a horrific display of dishonor and an atrocious lie but totally wasn't knighted guys because that's LE IRON KNEE
>>217812145Hello showonly bait-kun, glad to see you back
>>217812049baelor is a heroglory to house targaryen
Baelor is such a CHAD. I really hope nothing happens to him, bros. He will make a great king one day.
To all the anons saying the smallfolk laughed and jeered along with the nobles after the fart, they didn't. The laugh was coming only from the noble stand while the smallfolk stayed entirely quiet, with some of them making disapproving gestures. They only started loudly cheering after Baelor announced his support for Duncan.It is still not a great replacement for Dunk's own personal scene with the smallfolk, assuming that was cut, but it's something.
i gotta remember to get some cider at the market today
Gwin Ashford will never have a nameday celebration that will compete with the memorability of this. Massive tourney, a horse deliberately being killed, a riot, an extremely rare Trial by Seven.
>>217812145>Dunk is shown to be honorable to a faultyes>and not lieDunk is clearly lying about being Ser Arlan ever knighting him, it's spelled out pretty plainly in the show
>>217812144Ser Stevron is Walder Frey's eldest son in GOT/ASOIAFSer Steffon is the douchey Fossoway (Raymon's cousin)
i think the show is good but my god these episodes are so short and cliffhangery its like they got the dbz editors on this production team
>>217812132They made him too camp and overused him
>>217812241Probably the only noteworthy thing that ever happened to her family
when you win a trial of seven, do you get to kill all the other team? cause like the gods said you were right, which makes the others people who lied to the gods, heretics, they burn those
>>217812210>It is still not a great replacement for Dunk's own personal scene with the smallfolk, assuming that was cut, but it's something.I am 90% sure they are saving that for the beginning of next episode. Only reason why Steely Pate is still hanging out right next to the seven champions.
I thought the episode was coming out tonight.I had my cider ready...
>>217812311surprise 4am airing for ?????????? reasons
>>217812076>My brother said he's gonna mutilate me and rape me bloody. Please, I'm afraid. Help me
>>217812265considering how short this show is I disagree, if it was a traditional 10 ep hr long eps people would be begging for more lyonel scenes, its only because its so short it seems like he gets a lot of screen time
wtf was wrong with his voice in this scene? >>>/wsg/6087408
I'm glad the music choices worked this episode compared to the baffling decisions in episode 3.
>>217812340bloodraven used magic to transform valarr into baelor
>>217812340I noticed it as well. I wonder if it is ADR?
MWWAAAHHHH the Fossoway Cider™ has always been celebrated for its excellence.
>>217812333PPFFBBNYTHAHAHAHAH----wait- wait-- PFFAHAHAHANBBVATAHAHAHAHooh--- oooh--- pfff HhahahahAHHHAHAH
why are the episodes like 30 minutes??? bruh
>>217812340The horses were probably too loud so they made him dub himself.
>>217812337>how short this show isanon it's going to take them over 3 hours to tell a story that could have been told in under 2 hours.
This was the best episode so far but of course they had to spoil it with the Bracken fart hihi haha poo.
>he originally planned to bring a razor to his audition and shave off his hair mid-performance Good kid, good actor, but I’ve got a feeling he’ll inevitably have a MJ style crashout when he grows up and do some horrible shit
>that fart sceneMy expectations were indeed subverted.Before that scene I thought that i was watching interesting show made by smart people who know what they are doing on contrary to garbage thats being shit right now.After that scene i returned to reality.
>>217812452forgot pic
>>217812453They genuinely have to have someone throwing on staff, the episode was flawless up until le funny fart.
>>217812302Doesn't matter. They ruined the point of the whole book just like they ruined Blood and Cheese.
Man, the most random characters get the most insane swag, that Fossoway cape is like a carpet for how elaborate it isand Beesbury dude with honey moustache doesn't even get any lines
>>217812491to be fair we see that the inside of aerion's cape had some silver detailing on red, its just we get zero good looks at it
>>217812396This entire thing is a tiny novella.
>>217812491Dunk's armor is pretty fucking good desu
Aren't baratheons usually big?
>>217812417could have but shouldn't be the more time the better, if the extra scenes were shit then i'd agree with you but they aren't so I don't
>>217812453>Before that scene I thought that i was watching interesting showreally? it's a simple story that's been ludicrously over-extended.
>>217812396I dont think they could have convinced HBO to fund a 3 episode season so they make each episode 30 mins and tell them its 6 episodes in total.
>>217812452It does sound better in your head or on paper. Shaving your head takes fucking forever. What would the casting people have done? Watch him shave his head for 10 minutes? And then make him read lines?
>>217812553>the more time the betteryeah it lets them run more ads lmaoI watched Cadfael after episode 3 and it was like changing channels to Terminator 2 the pacing was so much better
Uh what was the deal with the shot of pennytree looking down on dunk cut in during fossoways knighting. It look like the old man was violating dunk
>any knight can make a knight So you can raise army of knights by yourself?
>>217812561How about filming and then editing and cutting it dude. You know you don't need to show the complete process right.
>>217812556i mean ok but at that point at least release like 2 episodes a week or something lol>yeah but our metrics and the hustle and bustle online and the subscriptionsyea yea i get it
>>217812588Anon, we are not talking about an audition tape but an actual audition
>>217812586yeah its GRRM pulling ahistorical shit out of his ass
>>217812554The actors are good, the setting is interesting, lore is unique enough, story is simple, yes, but my expectations for good tv show are so low right now (due to everything being dogshit) that it enough for me to be engaged.Dumb Seth MacFarlane gags are the only thing that makes me hate this show.
>>217812242No it’s not. The flashback to Arlan shrugging implies that Arlan tried to Knight Dunk but forgot the words. He’s still knighted though.
This series feels more like marvel *farts*
>>217812595The idea is to keep it in the public consciousness for as long as possible. Its why you rarely see binge content anymore.
>>217812553>, if the extra scenes were shit then i'd agree with you but they aren't so I don'tThey're not great
>>217812601my bad, ignore me i'm tripping on zyns
>>217812581See>>217812612
>>217812581>Any knight can make a knight>Dunk is reluctant to knight the squire - why might this be?>Oh well, Lyonel can knight him, what a solemn moment>Makes Dunk think back to when he got knighted>But Dunk says that Arlan knighted him just before he died>Arlan looks quite healthy there>He doesn't look like he's involved in a weighty and solemn ceremony, that's weird>I wonder what this could mean about Dunk and his claim to be a knight>I guess we'll never know
>>217812414Isn't it annoying when extras ruin the scene smdh
>>217812647You fucking moron stop spreading this fanfiction. The flashback to Arlan is him knighting dunk but he FORGOT the lines. Hence why dunk can’t knight anyone.
>>217812453What, did the cock and shit and anal fisting scenes make you think otherwise?
>>217812581>Fossoway looks up at Lord Baratheon, getting knighted>Dunk looks up at Ser Pennytree, only gets a smirk and a shrugYou really didn't get this?
>>217812536Renly takes after Lyonel
Looks like Aerion really stirred up the hive.
What's funny is that as Lyonel is knighting Raymun is isn't actually saying any words lol
Be honest, would you join dunk?
>>217812561>Shaving your head takes fucking forever.Not to mention shaving-rash looking awful.
Is it something in the cider?
>>217812477its for the american audience
>>217812681BeeBros how we feeling?
>>217812663>“Knight me.” Raymun put a hand on Dunk’s shoulder and turned him. “I will take my cousin’s place.Ser Duncan, knight me.” He went to one knee.>Frowning, Dunk moved a hand to the hilt of his longsword, then hesitated. “Raymun, I . . . I should not.”>“You must. Without me, you are only five.”>“The lad has the truth of it,” said Ser Lyonel Baratheon. “Do it, Ser Duncan. Any knight can make a knight.”>“Do you doubt my courage?” Raymun asked.>“No,” said Dunk. “Not that, but . . .“ Still he hesitated.>A fanfare of trumpets cut the misty morning air. Egg came running up to them. “Ser, Lord Ashfordsummons you.>The Laughing Storm gave an impatient shake of the head. “Go to him, Ser Duncan. I’ll give squire Raymun his knighthood.” >He slid his sword out of his sheath and shouldered Dunk aside. “Raymun of House Fossoway,” he began solemnly, touching the blade to the squire’s right shoulder, “in the name of the Warrior I charge you to be brave.” The sword moved from his right shoulder to his left. “In the name of the Father I charge you to be just.” Back to the right. “In the name of the Mother I charge you to defend the young and innocent.” The left. “In the name of the Maid I charge you to protect all women.”>Dunk left them there, feeling as relieved as he was guilty.
>>217812697>going up against 3 kingsguardNo im good.
>>217812675In hindsight I’ll concede it does make more sense that what it was implying was that he forgot the lines, but for a second it looked like he was above to shove that giant penis down dunks giant throat
>>217812681BUZZ BUZZ MOTHERFUCKER
Being a kingsguard fucking sucks
>>217812697If I was a random knight? YeahIf I was a lord, I'd have to think about it, definite no if I had no heir.
>>217812721Don't you have honor?
Gwin was looking so beautiful and Ethereal on the gallery during that shot.It makes it so on the nose how they casted someone so fugly and niggerish for Tanselle when she's supposed to be more beautiful than Gwin lol.I feel like this sho was purposefully added just to outline how beautiful pale and angelic she looks compared to ugly niggers, because atp Gwin has nothing on the story.
>>217812721>being afraid of kingsguardsThey are glorified jobbers
>>217812764>D&D: I don't feel like playing with this character anymore>*throws him in the trash*
>>217812763I would kiss her
>>217812763She's so perfect in this shot, looking like carved from marble. That gust of wind that just about tingles the loose curl of hair... My Queen of love and beauty!
>>217812721>Thinking Roland Cuckold and Donnel the Crabson will be difficultgg no re ez
>>217812715https://vocaroo.com/1odafz0o8KeX
>>217812763Is she supposed to look bored or concerned?
>>217812697Is it to the death?
>>217812777.>>217812819She's presumably lowkey seething because her birthday got co-opted by BIG AND STUPID Dunk! Also quite aroused.
>3 kingsguards vs 2 crippleswtf?
>>217812819I think she is resigned at all of this being completely fucked up>I just wanted a cool birthday party and kiss a big knight, now they are doing speeches and are going to bludgeon each other to death
Called em dunk cuz he used to dunk his penis into his mouth
>>217812775>D&D: I don't feel like playing with this series anymore>Here's 8 episodes, time for Star Wars
What is the point of heraldry if everything is so gray?
>>217812715gotta be honest, the Applelords of Applehamingtonfordshire-by-the-River-Cider leaning too much into their shtick, what with all the apple puns and fermented applejuice made from apples apples do you get it yet?? APPLES LMAOxDDD*releases swarm*STUNG a little
>>217812697With two fucking hueg crossbows, yeah. I also want a poisoned lance. I may not have the intention of winning anything, but I sure as hell ain't losing it either
>>217812763Worst. Birthday. Ever.
>>217812828Nah. Possible outcomes:>accused is dead (guilty)>accuser is dead or gives up (not guilty)But the other guys are still going to hit each other for real. There is a definite chance of death.
>>217812844So this is okay but not showing boobs?
>>217812863>poisonyou're a woman?
>>217812842I hate how in the book Gwin was a completely forgettable character you even forgot this whole thing was about her at all which was kind of the point. But in the show here she is looking like a fairytale princess. Completely taking the light off that fucking nigger lol.
>>217812853looks fine
>>217812844this scene made me get on social media and increase awareness of the show, organically and virally
>>217812828nah but you gotta give it your all doe
>>217812580hbo doesn't have ads you tarded poorfag
Baelor and maekar are suppsoe to be under 40...they look bit old
>>217812835you just know that she's soaking
So uhhhhhhhhhhhhThe king is fighting his brother and his nephews to the death?
>>217812634>lyonels party wasn't great>egg practicing wasn't great>dunk and egg chilling and chatting about a better life wasn't greatyou and I are very different people
>>217812927and its all aerion's fault
>>217812920I can't wait for the fanfic smut.
>>217812927He's just the crown prince, but yeah...I guess it's just until they are disabled and can't fight any more, but they do use deadly weapons.
>>217812927Yep it won't end well for him
>>217812927>>217812946it's not to the death doooooooon't even worry about it bro
>>217812939Baelor had the power to stop it at any time >you laid hands upon the dragon Just let dunk get away with it, you’re heir to the king you can do that
>>217812939>>217812946>>217812959Why don't they just lay on the ground and pretend to be dead
>>217812959I sure hope nobody gets his brain mashed in
I didn't realize that it would be out first thing on friday and not friday night, im ready for kino
>>217812972Well that would cause quite the fright considering it's not to the death.
>>217812965Yeah, have him whipped couple of times and all is good. He is big guy, he can take it
>>217812972exactly what daeron intends to do
Who the fuark is the King rnAlso I thought Baelor was meant to be a religious nutjob
>>217812972>being dishonorable
>Dunk dooms the alien invader dragon fucker dynasty in the long runBased Dunkaccino
>HOLY BASED BRACKENCH->*farts*>Fuck you brackencringe, blackwoods were there first.
>>217812994King Baelor was before this settingThis is the son of King Daeron II
>>217812996>being honourable means getting killed I seriously hope you guys don't do this
>>217812972They could do that, yeah. But they don't want to look like pussies. Credibility is pretty important.
>>217813017Maybe if you're a shitter.
Wait you didn't tell me House of the Dragon was kinoDid I miss out not watching s2https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=va0kIvXAXvA
>>217813017Eternal life awaits me afterwards, while you feckless cowards will burn in seven hells
>>217813036>season 2It has like three cool dragon fights. The rest is melodrama and Daemon talking to a tree.
>>217813010CRAVENLITTLECUNTS
>>217812972Spoken like a fucking dornish
>>217813004all according to keikaku
>>217813036Because season 2 falls off massively after episode 4 because they couldn't finish it and they couldn't have anything major happen after that point in the season either
>>217813036Literally the only good S2 scene
I bet King Maekar is going to be fun. I like how he gets annoyed at everyone all the time.
>>217812930>Plummer's betting fraud wasn't crap>anal fisting wasn't crap>willy wasn't crap>pooing wasn't crap>fart wasn't crapThe practice scene was good but Rhysling was weird, the party scene was meh
He's literally me
>>217813054>seven hellslol a Sevencel
>>217812991Nothing would have stopped Aerion trying to kill him later. A trial is different because the stakes are higher. Aerion totally expected to kill him by knowing no one would side with Dunk. It backfired spectacularly.
>we are going to see an open skull and a brain next episodeoh yeah it's kino time. First episode of the series I'm looking forward too
My anons, I know none of you remember /got/ of /tv/, but I was his generalfag. We gave (You)s to many of you. Reposted your memes. Bumped your threads. It was a good general. And he taught me how to be an anon. Not just offtopic discussion and waifuposting, but effort posting. An anon checks the digits, and that's all I did. I am not a /got/ oldfag, but I have followed /got/'s example, as newfags will follow yours. Who will join the discussion and post with me?>shitpostsHas soul abandoned the based anons of /tv/!? I will not believe it so! Are there no true anons amongst you!?
>>217813227I'll post with ser anon!
Im so fucking hype for the Maekar/Dunk scene.
>>217813216It's pretty easy to fuck up that scene.
BLACKF*RES(or as I like to call them NIGGERS) CAN EAT MY SHIT AND DIENOTHING BUT BASTARDS AND PRETENDERSA CHAMBER POT IS TOO GOOD OF A THRONE FOR THE LIKES OF THEM
>>217812049Any webm requests?
>>217813227I could post pennytrees tree peeny again I guess
>>217812604But didn't knights often knight others?
>>217813216next season will be a 5 minute pre-battle shitting scene followed by 25 minutes of dunk powering up to ultra hedge 2 then credits
>>217812693I think its on purpose to establish that its possible to legit knight someone without saying the words
Is the trial by 7 only meant for people who are knights and above?
I'D FUCK LADY ASHFORD WITH MY BIG VEINY host of dornish spearmen
>>217813399i meant next episode
>>217813437Yes, non-nobles cannot request trials by combat of any kind and must refer to the mercy of a higher lord if their local lord rules against them
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSZdCV1vFV0the fuck is this
>>217813386The whole point of a knight is that a lord or king has well-trained warriors at his disposal, who have armor, weapons and horses ready for war or border defense. That's why they were given land (with some peasants on it) to generate income which then finances the upkeep of their arms and provisions.If you can't fulfill that role then you aren't really a knight, even if some dude puts a sword on your shoulders twice. And you won't get the same respect as a proper knight. Later in history when regular soldiers with firearms replaced armored knights on horseback, the title lost most of its meaning, but that's a different topic.
>>217813460So if a knight is accused and trial by seven is invoked, then the knight must find 6 more knights/nobles too fight? Can any of the other 6 not be non noble?
>>217813486>That's why they were given land (with some peasants on it) to generate income which then finances the upkeep of their arms and provisions.I think thats a lord
>>217813466Oh nevermind, I it auto-dubbed it with english AI voices from spanish.
>>217813501>Can any of the other 6 not be non noble?As shown in the recent episode, technically Dunk as a knight could knight anyone, making them a hedge knight and thus allowed to participate, however making 6 random paesants into knights would hardly be seen as an honorable thing to do
>>217813227
Finally caught up
Pornstars that look like Lady Ashford?
>>217813460>and must refer to the mercy of a higher lord if their local lord rules against themDoes this not in theory mean the lowest serf can petition their way all the way to the king and it has to be respected?
>>217813535I meant to know whether that formality of them having to be at least be knighted to be allowed of being one of the accused or accusers champion is even required
>>217813573NTA, bold of you to assume a low serf would be allowed to go that high
>>217813227KINO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCQii6FLH28
>>217813511Nah a lord owns a larger area of land like a barony or county and can administer justice in this area. Their titles are hereditary. The lowest tier is usually a baron.A knight was given a smaller fief by their lord. Knights answer to the lords. Their title (as well as their fief) is not hereditary. It's still the lord's land, but it would not be unusual if his son would also become a knight in the service of the lord, potentially with the same fief.Knights can't administer justice. They have to bring legal issues to their lord.
>>217813594Oh of course, but my point was I don't think they have the right to keep appealing any rulings upwards, can't imagine that existed irl except for scant few
>>217813608Thats interesting, I thought knights had lower privileges than what you mentioned
I wonder if the burlnigton barwas prepared for streaming the early release of this episode
>>217813581Yes, it's absolutely requiredFossoway couldn't have joined them if he wasn't knighted first
>>217813599checkedmixing the got tune with the tune from knights is a good choice, imo, they blend seamlessly, invoking the grandeur of got and the knights theme of stoic chivalry very well
>>217813227then we will post loudly
Why is show Maekar such a bitch?In the books I pictured him more of a humorless bitter man, kind of like Tarly
>>217813599I literally and unironically soifaced when that started playing because of the amount of kino that 'sode was
>>217813659Was the episode leaked or did they just randomly decide to air it early by accident or on purpose?
>>217812586It would be pointlessIts not like becoming a hedge knight gives you a statboostThey would have no martial training, not know how to read and write, they would have no money for armor or horses.It would be pointless, and if they then proceed to knight others it would not be recognized as valid. Remember how Duncan was questioned as they were trying to verify if he was legit and Arlan of Pennytree really existed? Now imagine if you knighted 100 peasants. Nobody would recognize them as legit.
>>217813686Spruell is a good actor but modern showrunners can't help but make everything comedic
>>217813581 I don’t recall if Bronn was knighted before championing Tyrion but I don’t think so. I think that if fossoway or anyone who isn’t knighted and bound to those oaths winds up being the one to strike a targ or any high born or high borns champion down it would not be acceptable. The only way they could allow someone to stand in opposition would be if they were a knight charged with defending their lord or duty
>>217813694Superbowl on Sunday so they had to release it early
>>217812586knights are expensive
>>217813697Plus you'd probably get arrested by either a local lord or the church of the Seven on some bullshit charges just to stop you being a troublemaker
>>217813709>I think that if fossoway or anyone who isn’t knighted and bound to those oaths winds up being the one to strike a targ or any high born or high borns champion down it would not be acceptable. The only way they could allow someone to stand in opposition would be if they were a knight charged with defending their lord or dutyThis makes sense
>>217813599>holly shit guise it's is that the le heckin Game of Thrones music? I remember listening to this in HBO's Game of Thrones, wtf?? I can't believe they referenced Game of Thrones, that's so cool!! how did they think of that??
>>217812878I'm a survivor. I'm not gon' give up>>217812927No. He [Brightflame] can wield.
Did the episode air already or something? I thought it was supposed to go up tonight
>>217813599The shitting scene has defiled this music
>>217813767Was release like 8 hours ago. Early morning burger time.
>>217813325I made a bunch in the previous thread.If anyone wants the files: https://gofile.io/d/i80KGc
>>217813767I think they released it at midnight
so we have to wait 10 fucking days for the next episode?
>>217813709>before championing Tyrion but I don’t think soNo, from what I recall he was knighted after the Blackwater, hence his epithet and sigil, so was just a merc in the Eyrie. Maybe the rushed and prejudiced nature of that case meant they didn't care who Tyrion selected?
>>217813535lmao I'm imagining dunk rounding up 6 Karl FOOKIN' Tanners from flea bottom to dab on the targshits
>>217813794CAREFUL ANONyou only had to wait 5 for this one
Dunk and Egg were pretty well cast. Pity about all the black people.
You could do so much cool shit if you were a targ. Demand trial by combat and then demand both teams are made up entirely of peasant champions. Make lord Ashford bow to dunk just for fun. Hold a tourney where the winner gets to be kings hand for a day, just get silly with it
KINO KINO KINO
>>217813839I am the king and I want another one right now!
Going to be honest, this episode is better than S1-3 of GOTactual peak
>>217813859That always ends well
>>217813801Tyrions trial at the Eyrie was already a complete kangaroo court so them allowing a random sellsword to fight for Tyrion was like the 5th least crazy thing that happened.Not allowing Tyrion a champion and just executing him would make the ruling appear unjust + you incur the wrath of Tywin.
Cidersippers.... we won..?
ACTUAL KINOPLEX HOLY SHIT
>>217813801Yes that’s what I’m thinking, which may just be a conveniency in face of a retcon but it does track. Considering that loopy bitch was presiding over the trial and they wanted to get on with it, she may have considered that giving Tyrion only one day to find a champion would not be perceived as a legally standing trial and waved her hand at bronn not being a knight.
>>217813840Truly impeccable casting
>>217813880A king would do well to practice patienceI hoped you'd remeber this when I shitposted in this thread for you
>>217813901we goin... HARDAPPLE PIES ALL AROUND
>>217813884>betterYou're so mindbroken by garbage you forgot how good early GoT was. This is pretty good but doesn't hold a candle
>>217813894I wouldn’t do anything more evil than other high borns, I would just do them funnier and they would occasionally benefit the lower classes
post dunk decked out in fossoway advertising
>>217813897Absolutely, it'd be a farce to simply off him without at least the pretence of a trial. And it's not only Tywin's wrath at play here, her own Vale lords and servants might get a bit nervous is the son of the Warden of the West isn't afforded any sort of justice.
>>217813943yew soft innee 'ead oar summin'??
>>217813935people here always throw the baby out with the bathwater, the ending was shit so we have to pretend it was always shit, nothing was ever good in history, just nihilistically shitpost about everything always
>>217813935It's like at best a 7 (although can be a 5 and sometimes literally shits the bed completely) while early GoT was consistently a 9, and I don't think that's nostalgia talking. I think people are just being positive about this because we've entered the Star Wars zone where there's more bad entries than good, HotD is basically all bad, with a couple of decent performances, while even GoT's cracks started appearing in season 2 which still managed to be very good, season 4 onwards though was rapidly declining quality once D&D did the scene they wanted to and wanted out.

Dunk S1 moment that was supposed to give you le chills: *fart joke*GoT s1 moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CK1AViz0zPQ
>>217812972that is literally Daeron's plan
>>217813935GOT was great, but I prefer DunkKINO
>>217813801I think the reasoning might be that Trial of Seven is more overtly religious, and knighthood in-universe is a special thing associated with worship of the Seven.Pretty certain they do trials by combat in the North but they don't do knighthoods. So in regular trials by combat, it doesn't have to be a knight.
>>217814064I wonder what would happened if there were Northerners or Iron Islanders at the tournament and Dunk tried to enlist them. Would they be allowed to take part in the trial?
>>217814040>GRRM's gay little faggot world finally not taking itself seriouslythis is a good thing

>>217812396The entire short story can be read in 30minutes.
>>217814223ur black lol
>>217812049why is episode out now?
>>217813935I LITERALLY just rewatched the first 6 seasons of GOT and Dunc is better. It's just so comfy and so well done (for now) that even prime GOT can't beat it.
>>217814223Not only that but the trial is really fucking short. At least in the comic, which is allegedly pretty faithful to the novella. Basically, Ser Duncan falls off the horse, gets knocked out, then rises to see Brightflame about to finish the job, proceeds to beats the shit out of him and forces him to wield, then blacks out.
>>217814273To not clash with the Super Bowl.
>>217814223I've never read the books and I would have preferred to have stewed in uncertainty for a little longer. The feeling of doom was immaculate, but then it was confirmed pretty quickly that dunk was easily going to effortlessly get help from a full team because he's le good, and I got bored.

>>217814278>first 6 seasonsSeasons 1-4 are the good ones doe
>>217814300It's as abrupt in the books if not moreso because the pacing of the Fossoway fallout and knighting is swifter.
>>217814170this is peak performance unironically
>>217814332It's true. Though season 4 already shows the signs.
BRAAAAAAAAAAAPGood episode

>>217814548Anyone in Westeros who is even remotely opposed to the targs thinks that the dornish are the coolest fucking guys for repelling the targs for so long. Even the targs who aren’t narcissistic weirdos think they’re pretty cool. Everybody loves the dornish and wants to be like them

>>217814624imagine if there was an opportunity to enter a legally sanctioned mma fight to the death against bill gates, elon musk, bezos, zuck, etcwould you not take it?
>>217812110Never said but unlikely. They get 2 houses while Peake lost 2 for being supports of the black dragon.
Put it this way: an old man dying of probably pneumonia wouldn't have the consciousness to knight his squire in his last moments, at least not to the extent of being able to lift his sword and tap the squire's shoulders while remembering the words of the oath. Maybe Ser Arlan did it very limply with his dying strength, but it wouldn't be the real thing.
>>217814624>What am I to gain?The simple fact that you have to ask suck a cowardly and weasily question makes you unfit to join the teamPerhaps you would find yourself more comfortable in Aerion's loser team for faggots and retards.

>>217814482Hardyng is also his brother-in-law.
uhh yeah this show is actually fucking pure kino but remember that scene with a black person?>posts made my the terminally insane
>>217814706Dunk never being actually officially knighted yet being the most knightly of any knight before and after him is a key part of his character
>>217814364Yeah but there was room for some filler of Egg looking for people they could use and negotiating with them. There's 2 episodes left and 1 is clearly going to be the Trial of the Seven so what's the last episode going to be about?
>>217814520I wish this were the armor he's wearing though
>>217812453What fart scene?
>>217814706I like to imagine the scene as Dunk putting the sword in Sir Arlan's hand and "helping" him move it to his shoulders while Dunk says the words as Sir Arlan mumbles something.

>>217814416>Stannis teleports his army beyond the wall to save the day>Coldhands cut from the show>comically bad arrival at Bloodraven's tree abode with Jojen being exploded instead of just being injured (and turned into paste probably)It's mostly the last episode I guess, because they used it to set up their horrible post-book plot lines. It's overall a good season though.

>>217814747The fakeout slow zoom with epic swelling music that suddenly cuts out to a volume-boosted stock fart sound effect was a remarkably executed thematic flourish, it really drove home the message that the nobles don't respect hedge knights. It's very subtle commentary on the show's themes, and is easy to miss.
>>217814792It will be the fallout from the trial and the lords discussing what to do with dunk. Dunk and egg reconciling, and making his plea to maekor to be his squire
>>217814658Half also think they are goat fuckers

I have bloodraven weirwood emails confirming dunc's knighthood
>>217814619It's not as explicit in the show as you could think. I'm seeing many watchers not yet realizing he was never knighted.
>>217814706Is there someone who can vouch for that?
how could a woman write an episode this KINO?https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1770327201865492.mp4
>>217814901Nah there is significantly more discussion about if they’re even going to let dunk go and honor the trial
the whole point of Dunk as a character is that despite being a 100% fraud when it comes to his official knighthood,0 he actually embodies the chivalric honorable aspects of knighthood and goodness more than anyone else - which is a polar opposite to many of the classic ASOIAF knights who've got the money and the titles and the knightly sacraments but are just heartless thugs or backstabbers"uh AKSHUALLY Dunk WAS knighted by Arlan but he kind of forgot the words" would just completely ruin the message

>>217814416>>217814855Isn't season 4 also where they missed the Tysha confession from Jaime to Tyrion and the "fucked even moonboy" retort, thus ruining both characters permanently?Season 4 is good but only as long as you don't see how it plants the seeds for the terrible stuff that comes later
We're not even sure if Arlan himself was knighted...
>>217814482a bee might get smashedbut the hive doesnt forget
>>217814978Its possible Maekar subconsciously wanted to kill him but it was likely just an accident. They were in a duel with real weapons so sometimes shit just happens.
>>217814978Dunk is grappling on the floor with Aerion and it looks like he's gonna crush his skull - Maekar tries to rush to his son's aid but Baelor gets in the way, apparently one of Maekar's mace strikes put a dent in Baelor's helmet (which is ill-fitting and way too small because it's his son's helmet) and the hit ends up being lethal even though it wasn't meant or supposed to be lethal
>>217814864No actor should ever admit that, Sparrow is so done to death
>>217814932having virtue and honour in the ASOIAF world is really retarded though, however endearing it might seem

>Bessbury>installs a barbed tail on his horse to btfo opponents on a drive by
>>217814932I dont see how that scene invalidates Dunks character. Hes still not "technically" a knight as without the words Arlan couldn't have knighted him. That stupid technicality is literally the only thing standing between Dunk and being a true knight because as you said Dunk personifies everything that knighthood means.Arlan was a shit knight but he still managed to teach Dunk the true values of being a knight, whether that was by accident is up for debate.
>>217815163>armor includes a spike that is attached by buttplug
>>217815183Anti-Lyonel armor?
>>217815169Exactly, thats the entire pointhaving a scene where he kinda gets knighted throws all of that into the trashDunk is never knighted and its important for his place in the lore
>>217815087
>>217815206But there is no "sorta knighted" you're either knighted or you're not and Dunk wasn't knighted.
>>217815169>Arlan was a shit knightWas he?
"Any knight can knight anyone" is such a stupid rule. In time every peasant would a knight, knighted by their father, who was knighted by his brother, who was knighted by a drunk hedge knight, knighted by some lowborn noble knight who wanted to be fisted up the arse by a mace from that would-be hedge knight.
>>217815260ur indian
>>217815234Probably experienced, and I'll wager there aren't many old knights in that setting. Arlan was a survivor and probably had a few tricks up his sleeve, so my headcanon is that he had good instincts at his old age.
>>217815234>managed to die of old age>fought for everyone>fought in every battle>still completely unknown for his deeds by most nobles
>>217815234He literally forgot the words and like I asked, are we even sure Arlan was knighted himself or was it written in Worlds or any other SoIaF book?>>217815260Also for a few coins you can get knighted by any knight. Or just give a hedge knight some ale and dinner for the night you can have your son knighted.
>>217815116should have another indian raping the cow
>>217815283Unexceptional doesn't mean shit. Shit would be someone like Gregor, Amory Lorch, or the in universe perception of Jaime.
>>217815234Yeah he wasn't that great. Only had one successful tourney and nobody remembers him. He was also poor and couldn't afford making Dunk a knight.

>caring about legalisms in the ASOIAF world where you can just buy titleslmfao
>>217815260beric dondarrion literally does this, he knights every member of the brotherhood without banners, you arent wrong it gets out of control, still end of the world and all these things happen
>>217815260Because being knighted isn’t really what makes you a knight, you need a horse and equipment for being a knight and you need the nobility to go along with it and admit you to tourneys and to pay you at a Knight’s rate when you go on campaign or serve in their household. As you see if they just say, “arlan of pennytree? Never heard of him” it doesn’t work. I think they’re already giving Dunk a pass too because its more usual to do a vigil in a sept beforehand and so the faith act as gatekeepers too
