How come the makers of AKotSK don’t care about cinematography?
Cute and canon!

BREAKING NEWS>>217894804Some anons are too lazy to find a recent specific post, so you can just point to them the threads ARE RIGHT THERE, SER, so they can find itYeah
Am I just not remembering correctly or never saved them, we are only 4 episodes into this and if seems like there is just more clips that have been made as webms that have actual repostability to them than compared to HOTD.

>>217894902please excuse this poster sershe's been bitchless for his entire life and he feels sorry for himself
>>217894869I would say it is down to how a lot of the scenes that have been made into webms basically work detached from the wider episode and even show. Raymun ranting about Targaryens, big and stupid!, Dunk shitting, Dunk dancing, Arlan shrugging, Maekar's reaction, knights jousting, Egg singing about Blackfyres, Egg saying die Blackfyre shits, and so on - they either just illustrate something in general or work as meme replies.

>>217894744What do we think of season 2 casting so far, lads?
>>217895666no idea who these people are, but if its anything like S1 its going to be great
>>217895555I was about to write something like that but couldnt put it into words, thank you.
>>217895649heh, that's a neat ideaSadly I feel like there should be some surrounding hints of a creature sighting that could be a dragon, would require a lot of restraint to not mention it anywhere.
>>217895666Seems alright. Even if you think it is bad remember we fully know it could be far worse. I would be sort of more worried by S3 and S4 (if it gets that far) if anything. Given that if say S1 does end up doing well than rather than just leaving it alone to keep doing what it was doing you could easily get even more negative interference by production of S3. By S4 then there is just no real material for them to have to stay even remotely faithful to.

>>217895738
I never read the novellas because I'm not into word slop. I just always assumed Egg being Aegon was just meta knowledge the reader knew so I was surprised it was revealed so early.
>>217895738It's incredibly how trashy everything this faggot writes is.
>>217895770
>>217895716Apparently, Martin shared the outline of all the D&E novels with Parker, and the later said he would like to adapt the whole life of Duncan. Its a bit of a pipe dream, but who knows

>>217895852ok jeet
>>217895826>Martin shared the outline of all the D&E novels with Parkerno, he just shared 12 outlines. there's no indication he did the actual hard work required to make them into viable TV scripts. much easier to just be an ideas guy.
>>217895819Why does the crowd rush out like that? Were they gonna tear him to pieces for killing the horse?
>>217895887>>217895593
>>217895914they were most likely going to eat the horse and fuck him bloody. t. Cersei or someone idk
>>217894869Idk I remember hotd as pretty memable
>>217895914I think the scene is sort of retarded but, if you want the explanation behind it, whether it is a good explanation or not, it is the combination of hostility to killing the horse in general, ruining the competition by being unsportsmanlike and injuring the knight who was on such a winning street, they are all drunk, and being in a group emboldens them. It also just conveys how disliked the Targaryens are becoming and how much of a shitshow Aerion later causes by attacking the puppeteer. The whole reason the Targaryens are even in Ashford is as a good will tour, and Aerion is fucking it up.
>>217895996

>>217895996The only memes I can think of that have had any staying power or application beyond HOTD are >>217896022 and Daemon my wife's son! Remember crab posting? Sure that was something that got posted in the thread but, it has no real longevity or application beyond HOTD, and even then it was largely confided to S1 at that. A lot of the other stuff you can point to that still crops up every now and again in /got/ related threads is just ritual posting, which is not truly the same thing as widespread or organic memes.
>>217896147>>217896172one of the many things GRRM can't decide is whether he believes the medieval common folk were filthy rapists or downtrodden future liberals yearning for democracy. he literally changes his mind depending on the needs of the scene but generally opts for whatever makes the story easier to write: see Dunk just walking up to the nobility and hitting it off with them immediately, meaning he is basically never *functionally* a commoner.

They are fathers and brothers and sons! And their wives and children gather now at our gates to weep and curse your name! With your child’s blood we bought their approval; with your mother’s tears we made a bitter sacrifice against the deprivations to come and you’ve thrown it away. After all I’ve done for you. Thoughtless. Feckless. Self-indulgent. Gods help us all! Instead of judgement you display impetuousness and diminish us in the eyes of our enemy. Ill-considered. Trifling. You never think of your father: his forbearance, his judiciousness, his dignity. He was right about you. Insolent pup.

>>217897008this one is beautiful not autistic
>>217896945He wasn't such a shit knight after all
>>217896997Yeah, that was his secret sauce. He would just put his dick out, and while his foes screamed SEVEN HELLS!! he would stab them in the neckWhat a knight Ser Arlan was
>>217897008whos that even supposed to be
>>217896885he's a brown brazilian seething at white targARYANalso he's sucking the baratheon while they are basically the cadet branch of the targaryen family, while shitting on the targ, wich is fucking stupid.
>>217896945Anything is possible when you're knight Penistree
Duncan did the right thing.Baelor did the right thing.Both paid severely for it.Aerion did the wrong thing.Maekar did the wrong thing.Both benefit greatly and got away with it.What lesson are we supposed to take from this?
>>217896915>supposedly took over Westeros to save it from the white walkers>do nothing to strengthen the North>actively work to weaken the Starks and their most loyal vassals>their own stupidity completely destroys the Night's Watch in under 300 years, after it lasted 8000 years without issuescope
So what's with the show implying Dunk didn't actually get knighted? In the books it's pretty obvious Ser Arlan did knight Dunk because it's mentioned in flashbacks and monologues which have no reason to be lies but the show makes it seem like Dunk gets awkward about his knighting to the point it comes off as a lie, especially when he's about to knight Fossoway and forgets his vows.
>>217897073>also he's sucking the baratheon while they are basically the cadet branch of the targaryen family, while shitting on the targ, wich is fucking stupid.It's 2026 and people still think "unbiased history" is unbiased and doesn't intentionally make insane leaps of logic as a joke
>>217897017I won't deny that but come on, she was unofficially Daeron's master of coin and married a dude cause they both loved music, she was pretty autistic.>>217897043Elaena, she's Egg's distant great aunt, she might appear on the show if it goes to Kingslanding.
>>217896945Most of the time you're just guarding shit and fighting against crappy bandits.
>>217897121I don't think being good with money and marrying someone with common interests is autistic anon
>>217897102You do the right thing because it's the right thing, not because you benefit from it.
>>217897140In medieval setting I would think it is.
>>217897113>So what's with the show implying Dunk didn't actually get knighted?Yes, or it was half assed by Ser Arlan because he didn't remember the words. I like that they keep it ambiguous.
>>217897073>also he's sucking the baratheon while they are basically the cadet branch of the targaryen familyDurrandon genes completely mogged the Targshit blood and the Baratheons kept their sigil and words
Evil is on the move..
>>217897102It's a doggy dog world. And stories don't all have to distort reality to tell some moral lesson. Being immoral pays, that's why people commit immoral acts. And that's why being moral is valuable in the first place.
Holy kino
>>217897113>In the books it's pretty obvious Ser Arlan did knight Dunk
>>217897142Okay so you do the right thing.Innocent people die for it.Evil people gain power from it.The ideals you believe in fade.Am I supposed to believe that simply on principle you should do the right thing anyways?Why show honor to the dishonorable? Why not give unto them what they give unto you?
>>217897113You fucking retarded mouthbreathers need to learn to read.>Dunk looked at him thoughtfully. He knew what it was like to want something so badly that you would tell a monstrous lie just to get near it. "I thought you were like me," he said. "Might be you are. Only not the way I thought."
>>217897113>>217897179What are the exact words anyway? Sometimes the priest when marrying two people just skips to the 'I do's' and thats it. Also Arlan meant to knight Dunk, is Westeros a stickler for that kind of thing.
>>217897102>Both benefit greatly and got away with it.They were profoundly humiliated, I doubt either remembers that as a good day
>>217897113>In the books it's pretty obvious Ser Arlan did knight DunkThere's no other reason for Dunk to hesitate and refuse to knight Raymun, to the point where Baratheon has to step in and do it once he figures out what's going on
>>217896885>Unbiased ReviewThis means his IQ has a ceiling of 95
Why are these episodes 30-40 mins when HOTD got over 1 hour ones? It ain't fair
>>217894756Bessie!
>>217897245He probably forgot the words, even Arlan did.
>>217897113>people actually care about the technicality of being a "knight" rather than judging by actionsdo southron fags really?
They better show Egg's incestuous twin cousins and how one of them died from an accident while fucking
>>21789727130 minutes of akotsk filler are worth more than an entire season of hotdoodoo writer's selfwank
>>217897245>I don't actually know how to knight someone>Arlan just shrugged and said "I guess you're a knight now, whatever">Is it really okay to risk this man's life for my sake>he might not be ready for this kind of fight>I can't make this decision
>>217897201>[ dramatic music playing]
>>217895090Dumbest smart character
>>217897211We can never see the future or know the outcome of actions we take, often it is also out of our control. The thing we are in control of is how we act and thats it. If you already know your action would hurt the innocent and help evil people, it isn't the right thing.also checked and thank you for the socratic dialog
>>217897271This season is a short story of a single trialHotD is the story of an entire war The shows have need of a different use and amount of screentime (not defending hotd for the dumb stuff, obviously, but they did need more scenes to set up stuff)
>>217897271Just milking the GoTfags for the minimal least amount of effort until HotD S3 arrives.
>>217897294And yet he says none of these things despite them all being perfectly valid things to voice
>>217897245I thought the books made it seem like Dunk leaving Raymun's knighting to Lyonel was because Dunk got interrupted / didn't have time for it + even if he was a knight it wouldn't be fitting for a hedge knight to give his vows to a landed squire, and instead it looking better coming from a great house like Lyonel's.But that's just how I see it.
>>217897271I rather have 30min episodes than an hour long middle schooler's fanfic.
>>217897245>There's no other reason for Dunk to hesitate and refuse to knight RaymunKnighting him puts Raymun in danger.It makes sense if you're capable of caring for other people.
>>217895521For him? A coppah
>itt retards still arguing whether dunk was knightedYou fuckers are the target audience for hotd
Regardless, I will agree it was left ambiguous in the books whether Dunc was really knighted or not while the show makes it feel pretty obvious he wasn't
Duncan is not a real knight.Duncan is a true knight.Brienne is not a real knight.Brienne is a true knight.See? They mirror each other.It's ambiguous for a reason. We're never going to know whether or not Duncan was knighted.
>>217897195exact same Y chromosome + recent marriage with the targ + robert get the throne because he's the closest to thembeside, i get the memes.
>>217897271The Hedge Knight is a simple story about 1 mans journey that takes place over like a couple of days. 6 episodes of 30-40 minutes is still stretching the source material but the filler is at least good filler like fleshing out characters like Egg, Raymun & Lyonel.Compared to HOTD which has a ton of shitty filler just to stretch the runtime to an hour because thats the length it needs to be to be "epic"
>>217897371Why would he be fine with Lyonel doing it if the concern was Raymun getting hurt on his behalf?
Why doesn't Dunk, the largest knight, not simply eat Aerion?
>>217897289This is why safe words are important mhkay
>>217897381>>217897384You are the type to think it’s ambiguously gay to suck a cock
>>217897289go on
How do you guys think Baratheon felt after fighting for Duncan's life only for Duncan to comeback 20 years later and fuck him up
>>217897416Wait, is it a feminine benis or a regular one?
>>217895521I don’t like it but I’ll take what his grace gives
>>217897107make me reminder of this in the D&E book:>He was afraid of dragons, for he’d seen his uncle’s beast devour his own mother. The summers have been shorter since the last dragon died, and the winters longer and crueler.”
>retards actually think dunk was knightedEven in the comic he hesitates to knight Raymun.
>>217894896>They keep making it more epic
>>217895593Imagine being able to do this with your bro and still follow him into a trial of 7
>>217897400Because the responsibility isn't entirely on Dunk?
>>217897400Bystander Effect.There's a lot you can read about human behaviour if you're struggling.
>>217897427Lots of things can change and happen in 20 years. Tywin and Aerys were retconned in FaB to be close friends along with SteffonB during their youth. Would've been kino if GRRM wrote some novellas of them 3 being best bros but that's fking unlikely.
>>217897427His jets burned a bit hot when Egg's son refused to marry his daughter, but then he calmed down again after duking it out with Dunk. Real bros are above that shit.
>>217897384Brienne is also a direct descendant of Dunk and the pottery is very deliberate
>>217897427he laugh
The next 2 episodes are going to be pretty streched out.Because whats left? In the comic the fights pretty quick. Duncan wins the king dies then immediately after its Maekhar giving Egg to him as squire and thats it.
>>217897453>the comichotdoodoo watcher spotted
>>217896443Such a great rant that's made ridiculous by the fact that the character delivering it is almost entirely at fault for all of that happening
>>217897469>Would've been kino if GRRM wrote some novellas of them 3 being best brosAt this point I'd take anything obviously, but I would rather he finishes dunk and egg and winds of winter than start another project
>>217897483Flashbacks to Dunk's childhood I imagine will pad some of it out.
>>217897425Aelora accidentally caused Aelor's death in a "grotesque mishap", which left her mad with grief.[3] Following Aelor's death, King Aerys recognized Aelora as his new heir to the throne.[6] Some time later, three men known as the Rat, the Hawk, and the Pig attacked Aelora at a masked ball, after which she committed suicide.
>>217897483Next episode is split between flashbacks of Dunk in flea bottom and the trialFinal ep will be the aftermath and Baeler's funeral
I just wanna say the guy who clears his throat in the most over the top way is my absolute favorite side character in almost any show. Dude is just so hilarious
>>217897487The comic is canon dumdum, it faithfully follows the book down to the commas.
>>217897483Is it really going to be 6 eps? The fight will take 10 mins, 15 tops with the rest taking up Baelor's funeral and maybe 5 minutes at most for Maekar's talk with Dunk.Why would they need an extra episode beyond that?
>>217897483Next episode is going to be split between the trial and flashbacks of Dunk as a kid that we've seen in the previews.Final episode has Maekar & Dunks conversation with Egg joining Dunk + im sure some epilogue shit with the more fleshed out side characters like Lyonel & Raymun which will be more than enough to fill a 35 minute episode.
>>217897516So I can see them streching the fight out to be 15-25. Even the convo with Maekhar where he laments how he will be talked about after this for like MAX 10. I genuinely dont know.
>>217897512>the comic>having 1/5th of dialogue>having 1/3rd of important dialogue>canon>faithfulhotdookie watchers arent sending their best huh
>>217897474As opposed to an indirect descendant
>Nice self containted short series>Only 6 episodes>Every episode is good because none of it is padded with bullshitI sure hope there are other stories like this we can see.
>>217897533No arguments. Dunk isn't a sworn knight, have a good one.
So what happened to the tourney?
>>217897561concession accepted do try next time
>>217897516>Why would they need an extra episode beyond that?adding nig in flashbacks of Dunk and ruining the show
>>217897457>epicI look like this and soiface like thisDUNC-a-kino has given me new hope for this shitty franchise
>>217897541You a sassy bitch
HOTD genuinely feels like fanfiction.
>>217897567holy based

>>217897568*Clears throat exorbitantly*
Are Blackfyre characters likable? I hope they are somewhat if the show is gonna cover any of them. I hate how they handled the blacks vs green in hotd
>>217897567>otto bin laden
>>2178975562 others are already outGeorge said he's writing another 2 for a total of 5 dunk and egg seasons but you just know he won't write shit
>>217896277He probably thinks the peasants are filthy too and didn't take any bath or wear good and colorful clothes kek
>>217897592It does fit the definition I guess.
>>217897567All that’s missing is a “Westeros is stolen land” bitCompletely broke brained retards
>>217897567basedbut she should call them israelAlISRAELicent is right there
>>217897567Impressive. Very nice.
Fking cant wait for the reactions on THAT scene...
Is House of the dragon that bad? I personally couldnt even finish the first episode but Im curious about what you guys think. Does it match the quality of knight of the seven kingdoms?
>>217897198It’s a dog eat dog world
>>217897391>robert get the throne because he's the closest to themnot really, he got it because nobody wanted it, the targ shit was just attached to it
>>217897634It’s a 7 out of 10 that became a 5 thanks to s2
>>217897634It's pretty good up until the age-up, and watchable through the end of the first season, but season 2 is very bad, like s7-8 GoT tier shit already.
>>217897567greenchad all the way but i cant deny this is kino
>>217897603>Are Blackfyre characters likable?YesBlacks vs Greens is evil bastards vs evil bastardsThe Blackfyre rebellion is good guys vs good guys, just with a different perspective on thingsDaemon Blackfyre dies heroically trying to save someone else
>>217897656Ok I will leave it unwatched then
>>217897603Daemon II is a gay dragon dreamerhe will also be black in the show btw
>>217897634S1 has its moments for sure(specifically anything with Viserys or Otto) but in general id say S1 is GOT S5 tier in terms of quality.S2 is ass, like genuine fucking ass. GOT S7 tier basically the entire way through besides the random standout episode 2 that is strangely good. DESU if you didn't like episode 1 of S1 you wont like the show, just skip it.
>>217897603>>217897669ngl I only liked Daemon I & II
>>217897634As the other anon said, s1 is an 8, but season 2 is barely passable at 5 and only because the greens are fun to watch
>>217897669>The Blackfyre rebellion is good guys vs good guys, just with a different perspective on thingsNo it isn’t, the Blackfyres are the bad guys
>>217897634It collapsed once Otto left the story
>>217896443>What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since he was nine, always the same! "But not our Aegon! Couldn't be precious Aegon!" And he gets to be a king?! What a sick joke! I should have stopped him when I had the chance! And you, you have to stop him! You
>>217897699>>217897694>>217897679I will avoid it
>>217897695Misguided at best, and that depends on the details of the conflict (which we do not know with certainty)Daemon wasn't RIVERLANDGENOCIDER300 and Daeron wasn't maegor with teats
>>217897669Bloodraven, make the inside of his eyelids itch
>>217897716watch season 1, and first FOUR episodes of season 2, ignore the rest
>>217897699thinking back Viserys and Otto really hard-carried the show
>>217897740the younger actresses for Allicent and Rhaenrya were just much better too. Their adult casting is horrendous, makes both characters horribly unlikeable and basically makes the show unwatchable beyond any of the plotting issues.
>>217897603It’s smart good guys vs retard good guys
my only quip is that they didn't make steely pate a dwarfone fucking job
>>217897755>the younger actresses for Allicent and Rhaenryayes those two too
>>217897722>Daemon wasn'tAgain, we don’t know that. Rebelling against your brother who has been king for over a decade, the only people coming to your side being second rate houses and people with an axe to grind, doesn’t paint the best picture.
>>217897567blacks vs. greens on 4chan are better because we can call each other niggers without resorting to retarded analogies
Ser Arlan will appear behind Dunk as one of those ghosts as Aragorn charges the orcs in LOTR in the next episode.
>>217897623Westeros IS stolen land. Filthy andal scum need to fuck off back across the narrow sea
>>217897755What are you talking about, the writing for them is terrible but the actresses are greatThey have just been given terrible material to work with, especially Rahenyra
>it's a what would you have me do scene>it's a what would you have me dock scene>it's a Mysaria scene>it's a Daemon nightmare scene
>>217897791*first men
>>217897791>Westeros IS stolen land. Filthy andal scum need to fuck off back across the narrow seaFirst Men are also colonizers, so it's Children of the Forest land and Giants
>>217897792honestly this, I don't blame the actresses but it is the shitty writing they have to deal with in S2
>>217897803The First Men lived peacefully with them
>I KNOW NONE OF YOU REMEMBER SER ARLAN OF PENNYTREE>The one Lord who remembers Arlan fights for DunkI KNELL
>>217897797children of the forest and green men have to get over it
>>217897761I like retard good guys
>>217897825Andals HAVE TO GO BACK
>>217897775>Again, we don’t know thatBased on everything we do know about him it seems unlikely he was some deranged monster
>everyone in Westeros, even people north of the Wall, speak the Andal common tongueHow long did it take for everyone in the British Isles to get to the point of everyone speaking English?
>>217897795>everytime the show transitioned to that fucking dock
>>217897812they killed eachover, then made peace after the genocidethen the andal came, and the war started again
>>217897868nigga there's dragons, ice zombies and silver haired negroes, it doesn't need to make sense
>>217897868...anon, the andals arrived like 6000 years before Aegon the Conqueror
>>217897791even the Andal invasion was due to Valyrians trying to enslave everyone in Essos. Basically everything bad that has ever happened in Westeros is due to Targshits and their inbred civilization. The Faceless Men did nothing wrong when they organized the Doom of Valyria
>>217897852>it seems unlikely he was some deranged monsterI didn’t write that, just that he wasn’t the 100% honourable knight some people think he was
>>217897868Every fantasy settings do this, it's obvious why: nobody can be bothered to deal with the implications of always needing an interpreter character>but tolkienEvery dwarf, elf, or person we meet speaks understandable common language, even the fucking dragon smaug speaks perfectly so a hobbit understands him, EVERY author does this.
>>217897795ALYSSEXOOOO
>>217897932>even the fucking dragon smaugisn't he tens of thousands of years old?
Does Alicent understand her daughter is murmuring the future or what?
>>217897891They had to milk that budget
>>217897868They were still trying to suppress Welsh in the 19th century - look into the Welsh Not. Cornish was commonly spoken within Cornwall up to about the 17th to 18th century.
>>217897948Why would a dragon bother too, it would be like someone is learning to communicate with antsEspecially someone so arrogant like Smaug
>>217897964no one ever gave a fuck about her
>>217897795>make the biggest deadbeat dad on the show a black guy what did they mean by this
>>217897966>They were still trying to suppress Welsh in the 19th century - look into the Welsh Not. Cornish was commonly spoken within Cornwall up to about the 17th to 18th century.I think with AI, those secondary langues will get a revival.

>>217898077they talk with southrons when Stannis shows up?
>>217898077It's *mostly* Andal mixed with First Men.
>faceless men heavily involved in all types of magic, not restricted to a specific religion. Almost certainly use shade of the evening or fire for visions>planned the Doom, so they would have made sure to acquire as much knowledge from Valyria before destroying it>their acolytes and priests routinely infiltrate to gather intel when they aren't killing people for contracts>Varys' spy network is a wannabe version of what they've built over thousands of years>acquired a dragon egg from Euron>Jaqen H'ghar currently at the citadel to steal maester's books on hatching and killing dragons>Iron Bank gives Jon a sweetheart deal loan for unknown reasons>faceless men training Arya despite knowing she has no intention to give up her identity>know from iron bank rep that Jon is obsessed with AryaFaceless Men know Jon is a Targ, they are going to make him hatch that egg and work for Braavos, take the throne, and pay back that loan if he wants the real Arya back. take the outline pill, GRRM is still making Arya and Jon endgame
>>217898093Your creating the same problem.How do you know the southrons don't speak a language derived from the first men instead of the andals?

>>217897868>>217897966France is probably the better example to use given Paris much more actively and consistently worked to get the country speaking the same language. In England it was just Celtic languages, which were largely spoken in what can be considered the periphery regions. In France you had Breton (Celtic), Occitan (Romance), Catalan (Romance), Picard (Romance), Corsican (Romance), Alsatian (Germanic), Basque (Pre-Indo-European). According to this>before French schooling was made compulsory, native Occitan speakers represented more than 39%[11] of the whole French population, as opposed to 52% for francophones proper; their share of the population declined to 26–36% by the late 1920s,[12] Since the end of World War II, it experienced another sharp decline, to less than 7% by 1993.[13]

>>217898212>the last thing you will hear are bee puns and apple pun being thrown back and forth
>>217898232how can anyone side with the greens (OR NIGGERS AS I LIKE TO CALL THEM) after this?!
>>217898077>The Old Tongue is a language brought to Westeros by the First Men during their migration over twelve thousand years ago.>The Andals introduced writing, as before that time the First Men only used runes for carving on stone. Everything since written about the Age of Heroes, the Dawn Age, and the Long Night originates from stories written down by septons.The reasonable interpretation is the Andals introduced the language rather than the First Men speaking Old Tongue, then creating the Common Tongue, then the Andals with their writing system coming and adopting the Common Tongue.

>>217898231Is there anything specific about the common tongue being andal and not First men?Keep in mind, the Andals arrived 6000 years ago.In that time scale the languages in this map would pretty much track themselves back to one common ancestor language.Pointing out that the First Men, more than 6000 years ago spoke the Old Tongue which isn't the same that they speak now, isn't really helpful.It's like pointing out that the romans 2000 years ago spoke Latin and not Italian, therefore modern Italians speak Arabic, it doesn't logically follow.

Has courage deserted the noble posters of Television & Film?!I will not believe it is so!Are there no true thread makers among you?!
I do not see why anons are trying to apply any logic to the languages of Westeros. My GRRM's own admission he is not a language guy and in general a lot of the worldbuilding he does it flawed like that. Tyring to rationalise it is pointless as GRRM neither thought about it nor all that much cares.
