Absolute fucking kino.

So now that Dunk was nice to Aerion, Aerion will be a good guy from now on right? Happens all the time in anime.
>>218006636When the KANG heard the news of Baelor's death, do you think he was a little bit suspicious of Maekar's intentions?
>>218006636wtf spoiler
Draw me like one of your Dornish girls Dunk.
Name a season 5-8 GoT episode better than Dunk episode 5
>>218006657just wait for the gay love interest in season 3
who was holding off the kingsguard the whole time? it seemed like they achieved nothing
>>218006711Daeron gave the order.
Not a good time to lose the back of one's head.
does the book go into anymore detail on baelor dying? like was it maliciously done out of jealous/to change the order of succession or just legit an accident?
>>218006743No game of thrones episode was better than this. Take off your rose tinted headgear
>>218006711Maekar is still a but down the line of succession. Three grandsons would need to die for him to become heir.
>>218006764No, it was just an accident and the show nailed it
>>218006764Maekar was the fourth child. He somehow ended up king. Make of that what you wish.
>>218006636who did they say died before someone realized he was missing a portion of his headI swore i heard two names, isn't that different from the book where no one died besides the big cheese
Beebros….How we holding up?
>>218006764complete accident, some people think bloodraven orchestrated it via magic because there’s a wider theory that he’s trying to bring about Azor Ahai and he concluded it wouldn’t come from Baelor’s line.
Its unbelievable how thematically and tonally off this adaptation is. Nothing of the source material remains.And this is getting glazed by normies. Its all so fucking bleak. Theres 0 chance The Sworn Sword is properly adapted.
good ep, but imo this whole show should have been a movie. it's already only gonna be like three hours spread out over 6 eps and they definitely could've fixed some of the pacing if they didn't have to do the standard "build every ep up to a cliff hanger" format that all modern tv does
>>218006636>HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW SMACKING A MACE AGAINST THE HEAD OF MY BROTHER WOULD KILL HIM?what are helmets even for baka
>>218006749i thought baelor did
>>218006749Baelor. He was attacking them and they can't attack him.
>>218006764ITWASANACCIDENT
>>218006813Nothing is stopping them from recutting it into a film retard
>>218006789>ouch..this..stings
>>218006743Hardhome and Battle of the Bastards were lit.
>>218006636
>>218006764>>218006803given how often notions of sibling rivalry are present in the ASOIAF, you cant write off premeditated murder by Maekar
>>218006814it was his son's helmet, shit was too small
>>218006787beesbury (RIP) and i think that guy who joined after aerion fucked his horse up in the tourney>>218006789they just had to do our guy dirty by saying he died in the first charge
>>218006845FAHCKIN RIP MY LORDS
>>218006817so his brother gave him a drive by mace to the head for being a sweatlord
>>218006803But Azor Ahai is Jaime. Is he a descendant of Maekar?
>>218006787Beesbury and Humphrey Hardyng died in the charge
>>218006809In the book, the Trial of the Seven was a grand basketball match. Not sure what this swords and armors shit come from.
Is it out now?
>>218006827you're a giga retard if you think they'd bother with that
>>218006847Maekar seems depressed and repentant for the rest of his life so I doubt it. From the preview in episode 6 he seems miserable
Did Raymun go through that entire fight wearing nothing but a glorified jacket and come out with just a slight limp?
>>218006845what can you expect when you've got a broken leg
>>218006887He had a great helm on i think but I think thats it
>>218006883>From the preview in episode 6 he seems miserable>wot the fok, i only beat him in the back of the head with a fucking mace, how did that kill him!
>>218006903The Aragorn of ASOIAFF
>>218006873If you believe Jaime and Cersei and secretly Targaryens, yes
*cures you're jungle fever*
>>218006903in his final moments he's chuckling about his baby brother's swing
>>218006931has she been casted?
When you see it
>>218006883In the second story its explicitly stated why he sulks.
Baelor, whatever happened there...
>>218006949Alright, that's it. I dropped the show
>>218006809what's the tone supposed to be like?
>>218006950Well yeah because people keep whispering behind his back
>>218006950That and COVID happened
>>218006949blackfyre shits cant even get the dragon right
>>218006950Because he realizes that now he started it he will have to kill a bunch more of his own kin to get to the throne.
>>218006950forgor
Prince Baelorwhatever happened there
When Aerion was yelling "yield" before Duncan fell down the second time, was he trying to yield, or was he asking Duncan to yield?
>>218006995He was telling Duncan to yield
>>218006976Valarr, Matarys, Aerys, Rhaegel, Rhaegel’s children, would all need to die before he gets the throne.
>>218006995Trying to get Dunk to yield
Oh man... I got a killer headache... must have had a bad trip out there haha. Hey, Ser Anon could you help me with my helmet I think the visor's cracked...
Guys i'm feeling a bit light headed...
>>218006784>Daeron: Hehehe Myriah, there's no way Maekar will inherit the throne. Unless of course my nine sons and grandsons before him fall victim to nine seperate misfortunes and are unable to inherit. But that'll never happen. Three misfortunes? That's possible. Seven misfortunes? There's an outside chance. But nine misfortunes? I'd like to see that?>Baelor Breakspear: Ashford Meadow, what a nice little town. Maybe I'll make a summer home here when I'm king.
>>218006982WHATEVER HAPPENED THERE????
>>218007006Like that would ever happen
>>218007012Your grace... your helmet doesn't have a visor
im actually impressed to see that aerion is a really well rounded swordman
>>218007014me when I see migrane blindspots appearing
when is this in the timeline of the other shows? im too lazy to look it up and targaryan names i can never remember who is who
>>218006817The Gods deemed it not honorable
The Dunk and Aerion fight was really good but they spent too much time on the flashback. Or I guess we’re going to see the other POVs in the next episode. The way they did Baelor’s death was also pretty cool but again I do hope we get to see the swing that did it next week.
>>218007021alright then...
>>218007029Aerion fought well during the Third Blackfyre Rebellion, the issue was that he murdered Haegon while he was surrendering and this dishonored the Targaryens in front of everyone, forcing Aerys to send Bittersteel to the Night's Watch instead of simply keeping him locked up
>a dragon dies>a knight lives>fair trade
>>218006826The fake beard looks so shit, they really couldn't tell this nigger to just grow a beard?
>>21800703580 years before GOT
>>218007041We do see the swing. But it's a blink it and miss it
>>21800703560 years after HOTD, 80-90 years before GoT S1.
>>218006636That episode was shit, 90% irrelevant filler and the fight scene was such a mess I couldn't tell who was who.
>>218007035The youngest Targaryens in this show are 3 generations away from Daenerys
Why do Chads always win?
>>218006636death to all breaking bad fans
>>218007041We won't see more of the fight. They said they had no budget to show more, because they spent it on the flashback.
>MY BOY>MY BOYYY
Did Dunk lose his eye?
Battle was intentially a shitshow i know but >BEEsburry and the broken leg guys just die on the first charge.>Raymun manages to be seated for the 3rd(?) charge because he manages to save Dunk and then gets btfoOn the t*rg side>Daeron throws himself to the ground on the first charge. So he probably matched with Raymun?>On the second charge shit apple gets btfo by Raymun?>Now we kinda need to assume at least 2 of the 3 kingsguard got heavily injured or unhorsed for them to be KOed by Bealor>Maekar either got matched with Rhysling or Baelor>LS took out one of the KGThen it turns into Maekar 1 v 2ing his brother and LS while Dunk beats Aerion. How far off am i?>
>>218006836Battle of the Bastards is one of the dumbest battles ever. It’s like a Michael bay movie of all flash and now substance.
>>218007035Egg, the bald kid, is Daenery's great-grandfather. You'll be able to see a little shit 5-year-old Walder Frey in the future.
Does Dunk ever get better as a fighter or is he gonna go gorilla mode every battle
>>218007084Seriously, why are indians like this? No other people in the world gets so invested in these things. It's always them and those k-pop fans.
>>218007097he gets way better throughout his years, never loses his endurance either
>>218007087He got his dick sliced off. He ain't your boy no more.
Absolutely fucking *staggered* by the badness of the episode, frankly. I think I'd even go so far as to say I will never trust the judgement of anyone who claims otherwise again.
My biggest problem with the episode was the lack of showing the other fights and the whole GET UP DUNC with music swell 2x in a row. It felt too generic and cliche for game of thrones.
>>218007088I think he just got cut close to it and it swelled up completely, sorta like in rocky had to get his eyelid cut open so he could see again
>>218007093>all flash and now substance.That's most of the battles in the series, they don't make sense if you spend time thinking about them for more than five minutes
>>218007097Four Pages, does it matter?
>>218006957>>218006982KEK
>>218007097He becomes a legendary powerhouse. Perhaps not as technical as Jaime or Arthur Dayne, but made up for it by being a colossus.
>>218007113>Ahem…
>>218007086>They said they had no budget to show more, because they spent it on the flashback.yeah the superfluous, shitty flashback that no-one wanted. or did they, I'm curious here
>>218007070All that build up and they flubbed the whole season with this episode. Good will flushed. Didn't even get to see anyone else fight. like Lionel, because we needed 3/4 of the episode to be annoying backstory.
>39>just a fucking kid
Isn't the place Aerion got sliced the area of a major artery?
How did his helmet change? I already know /got/dunk/ will defend this continuity error
>>218007086It doesn’t make sense to that they already paid for phony armor and swords for these guys and set up the arena but its cheaper to get a bunch of new actors for flea bottom riffraff and build new fleabottom sets.
>>218006803Is everything in this series a Bloodraven scheme?
>>218006764This is omitted from the adaptation but there's a strong sense in the novel that there's a puppet master present in the story. GRRM hadnt come up with Blackfyres/Bloodraven when he was writing this one but the imagery is undeniable and is even featured in literal graphic form in the collected format.
>>218007181>>218007086Sorry i’m a retard
>>218007143He knows better than you, anon, just like the /ourchads/ Benioff and Weiss did. Remember your place now.
>>218007171The books have confirmed that Targs have a slightly different biology. For example they have four small lungs instead of two.
>>218007179yeah that's what I was wondering. It's a completely different helmet.
>>218007171Femoral, yes. He would have bled out in less than a minute.
Does anybody have a link to the new episode?
>>218007130Except it’s exceptionally bad in Battle of the bastards. Blackwater and watchers on the wall had some believability in it, whereas bastards is just dumb from start to finish.
>>218007179he literally says the visor was busted off
>>218007171That artery is more closer to balls. Dunk cut the front of the leg.
>>218007101I assumed it was just a white guy trolling
>>218007194Ira Parker has a scat fetish bro. Ever episode has a shit joke or shitting scene.
>>218007182definitely not, there are other manipulators/forces present
>>218007156>Didn't even get to see anyone else fight. like Lionelbut Ser Lyonel's horse got shanked and he fell off just like the original story! and Raymun wore zero armor! and - and the Encouraging Whore, anon! surely that's a good enough tradeoff right?
the red whore cheering for dunk was cute
stop rapin ser
>>218007205https://www.cineby.gd/tv/224372
>>218007026...
Beesbury status? Waxed
>>218007205I hear such things can be found on a "web sight" whose name begins with "u" and ends with "index" but naturally I do not believe it. You wouldn't download a car.
why you wanna see a bunch of boring combat with no stakes. are you all twelve? I liked the char development explaining why he cared so much for the puppet girl because remind of his childhood love which is always the most important. then we got the see the only duel that had emotional meaning, which is what matterst. enjoyed the episode because im not a teenager
this show will go downhill once they run out of books
>>218007156>Didn't even get to see anyone else fight. like Lionel, because we needed 3/4 of the episode to be annoying backstory.Indeed, the showrunner is a total hack (par for the course with HBO).
>>218007230>Literally make Lyonel like the coolest character in the show>Uh Lyonel kind of fell off his horse and forgot to fight
>Hyped to finally see some kino knight combat>Dunk stays behind so we don't even get to see the others knights first charge>Dunk immediately gets stabbed by lance at first charge >Gets knocked out>Dumb fucking flashback>Dunk proceeds to job getting constantly stabbed>Barely see the other knights fighting>Dunk almost passes out again and for dramatic effect he gets back up last second. >Don't get to see Lyonel laughing in combat>Dont see Beesbury get killedYeah, I'm really disappointed
>>218007182Unironically yes
>>218007258Shut up faggot. The flashback was unnecessary.
>>218006957It wasn't long ago i remember you stayed in the squire corner and for as far as i'm concerned YOU SHOULD STILL STAY THERE
>Dunk's first love was a Dornish girl who looked exactly like the puppeteerThat explains his weird obsession with Tanzel too plain.That flashback would have been far better suited to some time before the Aerion incident. Would have made it much clearer why Dunk was willing to charge in to save her.
>>218007179I can see why you think that due to the lighting making one look shinier but really the visor just came off. Like he said.
>>218007249I assume Danny Collins was paid for his performance but having everything I'd done left on the cutting-room floor over a retarded-looking mustache I would not have wanted to wear in the first would certainly sour me on the project.
>>218006809Who gives a fuck about the source material?
>>218007240thanks anon
>>218007280OOOHwatch it steffy
>>218007258>I liked the char development explaining why he cared so much for the puppet girlIn some ways, anon, you and I are very different people. I thought it was the most contrived, cliched retarded shit I've seen in quite some time. Not to mention a complete fucking *waste*.
>>218007249>>218006845
>>218007249>this..stings
are we ever gonna find out if he was knighted or not or will they just leave it vague
>>218007179you can see the where the mentioned broken visor was attached via rivets on each cheek of the helmet...
>>218006861>"muh boy! muh boy!"Get to fuck!
>>218007315It's not vague at all, he was clearly not knighted
>>218007258This. The flashback was dope and important and sad. It's okay to take a break in a battle to add a little depth to the main character. If you disagree your favorite movie is Transformers
was ser arlan of pennytree a true knight?
>>218007307Yes we needed to make like 25 minutes of a 30 minute episode with the epic fucking melee everyone was waiting for more backstory so we really understand why he saved the girl.I really didn't get that he was a do gooder who likes to save the innocent yet if they hadn't stopped all the momentum to really grind that in.
Today I will remind them.
>>218007315whether he was knighted or not really stops mattering once he has a reputation as a knight. but no he was never knighted even though old man had every intention to do it
>>218007360There's no reason to believe otherwise. Also no reason to believe he was the shambling retard you see in the show.
I was confused if that was Baelor at first because the armor was completely different
didnt mind the brown girl being brown, king's landing is a port town and trading hub, there would be all sorts of people especially in king's landingbut her character really didnt need to exist. like, at all. dunk can live his plucky life at the bottom alone and nothing about his character would change. does it matter that his "love" died in front of him? I dunno, I wanna say no because a) doesnt happen in th books and b) the way dunk decides to do the right thing in the here and now is more interesting than le tragic backstory or whatever
>>218007358They had 5 episodes to do that already
>>218007384>didnt mind the brown girl being brownEh, if she'd lived she'd only have grown up to be a Sassy Black Woman.
>>218007384*there would be all sorts of people especially in flea bottom
>>218007374The biggest plot hole of HoTD is vizzy t needing a wife instead of having multiple concubines
Was BobbyB a true knight? We never saw him getting knighted.
>>218007211>>218007287>>218007316>visor came offIts literally a great helm. There is no visor
>>218007315He was obviously not knighted.But after the tourney it didn't matter. He fought as a knight in the trial, was officially recognized as one by Baelor, Maekar, Aego and the rest, so Dunk's position became irrefutable.
They also didn’t show Dunk as a ruffian who actually fights other children and wins in fleabottom which is what you really want to focus on if you need to go back there
>>218007358I don't give a fuck about Ira Parker's fan fiction. Fuck off.
>>218007393So stop all emotional development after episode 5... got it. You're a child.
You're a good man, anon. The realm needs good men
>>218007384>dunk can live his plucky life at the bottom alonedunk had a bunch of immediate friends and associates whose names I forget but apparently this eyeroll-inducing new character just had to take precedence
Lyonel the type of nigga to attend a funeral just for the food
>>218007410I think its weird it never occurred to anyone a 50 year old man with a new teenage wife might have a son
>>218007078>doesn't marry her>winkek little cuck boy over here coping on behalf of dunk
>>218007427Yes unironically if your audience isn’t invested in this character after the first 2 hours you have done a shit job
>>218007440does he even come back in books 2 or 3?
>>218007449Pretty sure Otto paired Alicent with him under the assumption he would transfer the succession to their son rather than remaining loyal to Rhaenyra
>>218007223no anon no he's :quirky: and :irreverent:
>>218007410He didn't want concubines he wanted to play with his model kits
What was one eyed guy doing the whole fight?Maekar was 1 v 2ing baelor and Lyonel, dunk was with Aerion, fossoway v fossoway, and daeron pretending to be deadWas he just also fighting both kingsguards at the same time? Is he goated?
>>218007440The single frame in the whole fight i could find of Lyonel squaring off with Maekar
>>218007358>It's okay to take a break in a battle to add a little depth to the main characterThe "break" starts 3 minutes 48 seconds into the episode. Going from when the horn sounds the battle is only 55 seconds before Dunk is knocked out and the flashback begins.Do you zoomers really have such a short attention span?
House of the Dragon is pure shite.
>we will not get dragonflies vs dragons scenesubtlety is ungraspable for these late millennial directors
>>218007463no, nigga.
>>218007470He has an eyepatch, that's shorthand for goated.
>>218007463He is more popular than Egg. They will managed to involve him. Maybe GRRM writes new stuff for him.
>>218007470He doesn't have depth perception, RETARD. He was swinging against the air and everyone else just let him be.
>>218007496the author knows lel
>>218007464but he did pass the succession to her son. alicent told me so and she was at this death bed
>>218007496I think it's fine, doesn't quite reach the peak of GOT at its height but it provides solid intrigue. S2 felt like a miss though because there too much meandering from the characters, I don't think S3 will have this problem though (going by the leaks).
Are the two guys Arlan kills kingsguard?
>>218007470>Was he just also fighting both kingsguards at the same time? Is he goated?This must be it because both Humpfreys gets btfo on the first charge.
>>218007440> Lyonel wants Dunk> Joh The Diddler wants Dunk in Mystery Knightwho's gonna a homo in 2nd one? Bennis going after Egg? Longinch? Steffon The Septon?
>>218007547no they seemed like random guardsmenwere they even goldcloaks?
>>218007463no, but he does stuff related to dunk and eggwhen aegon is king, he rebels against the throneif the show does go beyond the novels, this would probably be in some of those outlines grrm gave them
Arlan in this episode was giving major Frank from Shameless vibes
>>218007556They don't need a homo in Sworn Sword because the story itself is gay enough with Dunk getting cucked out the ass.
>>218007565Frank jestermaxxes harder since he doesn't have fighting skills or a 12 inch dong to fall back on
>>218007463No.Dunk and Egg stories are essentially side quests with the main storyline intruding once in a while. Which is why they're so good.We know that Dunk and Lyonel fight in decades ahead.
>>218007534I do feel bad for GRRM. Beyond GOT probably stopping him from ever finishing the books, he's said that Daemon is his favorite character that he's written and Daemon in HOTD fucking sucks
>>218007563>when aegon is king, he rebels against the throneWhat the fuck? What an ASSHOLE. Why would he do that?
Was expecting to see Lyonel being a chad and just mogging people in the fight. Instead I got Maekar 2 v. 1 Baelor and Lyonel
>>218007491there was the scene of Lyonel swinging at Maekar and Maekar unhorsing him before this, and then Lyonel helps Baelor hold Maekar back when he's shouting my boy
>>218007591aegon's son was betrothed to his daugher and he went off and married some random girl he met instead
>>218007581that's kinogrrm needs to write that
>>218006636Why did no one activate their musou skill and just body the entire opposing team?
>>218007589tbf Blood and Fire is cancer idea to adapt in generaleven narratively its messy because the two main female leads just sit in castles and do nothing while men fight
>>218007460Kek Dunk cucks her husband and probably has his child. She's Tyrion's great-grandmother, and I wouldn't put it past George to write one of Dunk's descendants as a midget.
>>218007606What? Aegon's son is another Aerion? Did he learn nothing of honor from Dunk? That Targ family really has rotten genes, man. Even the good ones can't engender good offspring.
>>218007591same thing that rhaegar did to robert, but for lyonels daughter
>>218007604When people have to step through the video frame by frame to even try to catch a glimpse of some action in all the quick cut blur you fucked up your show completely.
When Alicent tells Otto in the second season premier “My sons both see you as the great example, the hand to three kings”. Is she lying or just wrong?
>>218007601They don't call him the Anvil for nothingor was he the Hammer? I can't rememberHe's a warrior prince through and through though
>>218007633>two main female leadsWell that's another thing, Alicent is basically a bit player after a certain point
>>218007638noreadprince of dragonflies here is aegons 1st born
>>218007638He marries Jenny of Oldstones for love. Another one of Aegon's children was supposed to marry Margeary's grandmother, Olenna Tyrell, but he was gay and ran away with his gay lover and died. Lyonel's rebellion ends when Aegon betroths his youngest daughter to to Lyonel's son. That's why Robert Baratheon had a claim to the throne because he's a Targaryan through his grandmother.
>>218006636I felt nothing in this scene.She was a miserable cunt.Am I supposed to feel sad?
>>218007534On one hand GRRM seems to fall out with every single director, maybe if he was a bit more diplomatic a good middle ground could be foundOn the other hand jesus christ, why does hbo always put retards in charge
>>218007701I thought she was cute and witty, the only thing she did wrong is not murder that pig the second she took his knife
>>218007701That one anon seems to think shes supposed to explain Dunk liking tanselle because they’re both brown but idk i think hbo just wants a certain level of diversity
>>218007696>for loveGAAAAYYYYY
Ryan Condal and Sara Hess really fucked House of the Dragon
i felt like the flashback scene was a little longer than it needed to be. am i in the wrong?
>>218007701She was a child from flea bottomOf course she was a miserable cuntThat's also why you feel bad for her, a stupid and avoidable death for a poor child who never knew any better
>>218007701Yeah, liberals love criminals and browns and women so you were supposed to really love her and feel sympathy for her. The fact that she was an evil little bitch and a thief was supposed to make you like her more, but if you are a moral person, then you’ll hate her
>>218007701I felt nothing because it feels like we’ve seen this trope too much
Like Rings of Power, HotD was just conceived and developed at the absolute low point of all media it never stood a chance
>>218007704Eh I’m pretty sure the showrunner and writers for HoTD are actually insane considering how gay the second season is.
>>218007748>but if you are a moral person, then you’ll hate herNo, that's just youOne can disapprove of her actions without feeling burning hatredShe's an orphan child in a slum
>>218007748The pig was a thief too you fucking tool
>>218007736about 2 minutes too long, could've cut some of dunk stalking Arlan but i think they were showing Dunk's endurance and determination
if you disliked this episode you are a brown teenager
>>218007769We shit in HotD a lot but don't even compare it to rings of power lad.
>have to wait 8 hours before im done with my job to watch this kinohttps://x.com/westerosies/status/2023258185465807318ITS NOT FAIR
This is absolutely GoT S1-S4 level btw. So glad it’s coming next year and we don’t have to wait for ages.
>>218007179he took a mace multiple times to the head
People are shit talking Maekar, but the I love a guy who just keeps walking niggers down even when outnumberedmight be my favorite targ after this episode. and I fucking hate targs
>>218006743Hardhome is up there. I know it's not S5 but Ser Alister leading the Nights Watch when the Wildlings attacked was the peak of the show.
Aerion status? Is he actually going to gain some slight humility next episode?
I kind of expected the flashback to be a montage of Dunk mud wrestling dudes Fleabottom style
>>218007827Yes. He becomes Aerion the just.
>>218006743there isntDunk is GOT S1-3 tier
>>218007827Nigga he dies drinking wildfire trying to turn himself into a dragon
>>218006764No it's mostly scene for scene. The show is more graphic but it plays out the exact same way.
Maekar be like>I just hit him in the head with my mace 6 or 7 times! How was I supposed to know that would kill him we used to do it all the time as kids!
>>218007701She's a kid. Kids are like that.Haven't you ever had a younger cousin? A niece or nephew?
FUCK HOTD, IF THIS SHOW HAD THE BUDGET WE COULD'VE GOTTEN MORE FIGHTING BETWEEN THE REST OF THE KNIGHTS FUCKFUCK HOTD FUCK
>>218007736nopethey incorporated these memories from the 3rd story here but its out of place and frankly damages Dunks characterisation
>>218007780yeah i get what they were showing but it just felt like it went on for too long. theres another part of me that says if this were a real series with 10 hour long episodes they could have devoted an entire episode to the flashback but with these 30m turbo episodes it felt like too much
>>218007827No. His dad ships him off to Essos for a while and the dude just gets more and more unhinged until he drinks wildfire thinking it'll turn him into a dragon.
>>218006787Both of the Harolds die. Beesbury is killed by Donel of Duskendale (the nice Kingsguard) almost immediately. We don't know who kills the other Harold.
>>218007848Maekar hated Baelor and wanted to kill him.Baelor was honorable and purposefully avoided any deadly blows.Honorable people are losers who die for nothing. That's the lesson.
>>218007844Everyone makes fun of Aerion for this but imagine if it worked
>>218006809The source material is dogshit as is all of GRRM's work.
why are they even bothering with airing hotd s3 when it got mogged this hard by dunk which costed only $3.50
>>218007854Idk about that guy but i’ve literally never had a child tell me the world fucking sucks and steal shit right in front of me
>>218007872in the book he dies of his injuries after the trial is over
>>218006814Baelor was wearing Valar's equipment. That's why it was too snug.
>>218007881Unironically the only way of saving HOTD from getting mogged to oblivion is to cast Clav in a major role.
You guys really, really think that Cersei, the incestuous woman who constantly dreams about burning her enemies, is paranoid of everyone, and plays with wildfire isn’t going to be a targ?The dragon has three heads. Jon, Dany, Cersei. Dany isn’t going to waltz in and take Westeros without two dragon riders to keep her other kids in check. She’ll bring Viserion across the narrow sea and he will instantly bond with Cersei. Or maybe fucking Euron will dragonrend it with his horn and bring it to her as a wedding gift, I don’t know.
>>218007848literally yesa properly fitted helm would absord most of the impact, dent inside, maybe give baelor a concussionbut since it wasn't his armor, the helm was too small, there was no space to dent and the mace hit connected pretty much directy with his skull
Sara Hess and Condal are hacks
Attention whoring fucking retards
>>218007873>Maekar hated Baelor and wanted to kill him.No, he was just jealous of him because he was a giga chad with non-retard sons. If anything the blow comes off as more of an accident here since he was seeing red because he wanted to protect his boy.
>>218006847Maekar definitely did not kill his brother on purpose. He was definitely jealous of him and lived in his shadow but he loved him and respected him.
Duncan is SEVENTEEN????The FUCK????
>>218007902Who cares. We'll never find out.
>>218007902It will be Jaime. The twist will be that the song of ice and fire referred to Jaime and Bran.
>>218007875>Everyone makes fun of my paralytic ass for jumping down that bridge but imagine if I managed to levitateI guess then we would all be the fools, and he the only sane man in westeros
>>218007827He becomes Viserys Targaryan
>>218007902Is Jaime a Targ too or did Aerys and Tywin cum inside Joanna at the same time?
Why did they nerf Dunk so much?In the books, once both Dunk and Aerion were scrapping in the mud, it became extremely onesided in favor of Dunk.
>>218007881The sheer difference in writing between the two shows is astounding
>>218006907Maekar doesn't remember the blow that struck and killed him. It's worth noting it's only assumed Maekar did it because the KG wouldn't have, Aerion couldn't have, Daerion gets put on his ass in the first pass by the one eyed guy, and the Fossoways were fighting each other.
why didnt baelor just leave his helmet on for the rest of his life
>>218007902>The dragon has three headsDany, Griff, and Jon
>>218006764herethe strength of the ending of The Hedge Knight is how abrupt and sudden it is. after this its like 2-3 more scenes of very tight dialogueyou can find the PDF online, its like 5 more pages after this scene
>>218007929Cuz in the show he gets stabbed 50 times
>>218007929Because the heel needs to win a bit so the babyface can make his comeback.
>>218007929I get they wanted to add some drama but they went a little overboard. Dunk would have been dead twice over from the wounds he took in the show.
>>218007701>I felt nothing in this scene. She was a miserable cunt.You sound like a chud whose never had sex.
who even was the guy who got part of his head cleaved off and why am i suppose to care that it happened?
>>218007929I think it was too hard to portray the change dunk made from "fighting like a knight" to "fighting like a tall lad in flea bottom" if you're not inside his hed
>>218007910ok Egg, whatever you say
>>218007941>he thinks griff is a targ
>>218007902If Martin were a more kino writer Jon would remain dead and a bastard.
>>218007006Half of them get wiped out by sickness.
>>218007939Woah dragons are so high iq
>>218007975He obviously doesn’t know that if he intentionally killed Baelor retard
>>218007969Blackfyres are dragons too
>>218007601This dude looks so different without the white hair and beard.
>>218007929to generate faux suspense
Does Dunk become one of the best knights later on like Selmy?
>>218007969The Blackfyres are descended from King Aegon IV. The current ruling family of Targaryens are descended from Aemon the Dragonknight. The royal blood is more pure in the Blackfyres
>>218007939They could have called him Baelor the brained
>>218007925Yeah he’s a KINslayer not a KINGSLAYER>>218007941Gurm didn’t think up blackfyres until 2001 so no
>be maekor>accidently kill your brother>live on to see most of your family, including your children, die around youmost punished man alive
>>218007990You need to kill yourself, seriously
>>218007988>FOUR>PAGES
>>218007958Look at the banners you dumb cunt
>>218007988a 16 yo selmy beats dunk at a tourney
>>218007947>"That... feels queer, I..."wait they cut his coming out scene. anti woke has won
New thread >>218007619>>218007619>>218007619
>>218007988no, he never turns into an exceptional fighterhe's good, but he would lose to pretty much every knight of renown in the seriesthat's part of what makes him such a great knight, he is not a master of arms, he has courage and morals and the willingness to go beyond his means
>>218007992you can definitely tell by the end of the 1st story that Aerion was supposed to be the source of future rebellions against Targs
>>218008010no
>>2180079884 PAGES
>>218007089Rhysling unseated Daerion and then turned to help Baelor. We see Maekor fighting two at once. The harolds are dead, the fossoways are dueling, dunk/aerion, and then Lionel went after the KG.
>>218007992When did Dance come out, you stupid fucking cunt.
If Dragons are so smart how did they die?
>>218008017Yes
>>218007998t. Bloodraven
>>218008001yes, i know he is targaryen but literally who and why am i suppose to care?
>>218007988he'll eventually become one of the most renowned knights in Westerosi history by GoT's era, "best" is subjective because he's not one of the deadliest fighters like Selmy, but his feats/deeds are unmatched
>>218007988not in skill but in noble deeds, but he would be an A tier fighter in his prime, not S or S+
>>218007913Only in the books. In the shows he’s in his mid 20s.
>>218007990Based and trueFact checked by real Blackfyre pariotsDaeron Waters, or as I call him, Sleepy Dan, is no king of mine
>FUCK I forgot to write down all of Jamie's great deeds
>>218008032You’re such a fucking idiot
>>218007315He wasn't, Ser Alfred meant to knight but died prematurely.
>>218007384Watching Ser Alfred drunk off his ass go apeshit on two goldcloaks was kino
>>218008068I know you are but what am I
>>218007496Everyone is unlikable. The only decent characters are Cregan/The Northerners and the River brats, but they're barely in it.
>>218007701What else is she in? I feel like I know her face from somehwere
>>218008125So it's accurate to the source material?
>>218007981Which is how you know he didn't kill him intentionally you shitskin fucking subhuman
>>218008192Well the thing is that you dont actually get characterisation in the source material. You are told by a biased source what others witnesses and claimed to have witnessed. You can only judge characters by their most renowned/infamous acts. And from that... yes, no one is looking great.
>>218007939Damn Drogon really is a leftist memer.
>>218007988No Selmy and Prime Jamie are basically swordgods. S+ tier, Arthur Dayne as well. S Tier would be the Mountain, Doran, the Hound, and Prime Robert. Everyone else is A tier on their best days.
>>218006957Brilliant.
>>218007041i was happy enough with what we did see of the fight. i like that it felt chaotic and brutal while still making it seem like armor/chain mail wasn't just paper you slice through easily. the tinnitus bit overstayed its welcome but it didn't ruin the scene. that said, the flashback was too long. i don't even think they needed to make the action stuff longer, just cut like 5-10 minutes from the flashback, leave everything else the same, and the ep would be improved
>>218007821>I love a guyfag lel
>>218007701no anon you're supposed to nod with grave appreciation at the fact that dunk could never have opposed a scummy authority figure out of simple decency instead he needed a shitty ACC to teach him
why are beesburys the characters designated to die
>>218009010Ser Humfrey threw the Trial in preference to any additional faffing about with that shit on his face.
>>218009010>"take heart, Beesbury, I will handle the Kingsguard!">does not handle the Kingsguard
>>218009010The lone bee dies, but the swarm survives. House Beesbury remembers.
