AERION! editionPrevious>>218044021
>>218046368>but they dont demand as high of paymenttaking the best targ of his time just to barely save some flea-bottom retard is kind've of lot
>>218046364
meanwhile here's what happens in the Duncan vs Aerion duel in the novella, just half a minute after they're unhorsed
I must be fucking retarded speedwatcher so I'll ask this at the risk of being made fun of but can someone tell me what's with balor/balon? are they the same person or what
I am your man. Please. Your man.
>>218046402Dunk earned the mothers grace trough his act of protecting the innocent.
>>218046409I prefer the muddy brawl of the show
>>218046415>balonWho?Baelor is the salt&pepper haired prince.I have no idea who balon is, unless you mean balon greyjoy from game of thrones, which I mean you should know they aren't the same person.
>>218046422Me when going to a job interview
>>218046297Genuinely one of the biggest injustices in the series is Tywin getting handed one W after another right up until his death and dying relatively quickly from bolt to the gut instead of getting hanged by his balls and flayed alive in some shitty village in the riverlands. The story validated his worldview every step of the way. Delusional retard never even acknowledged how lucky he got.
>>218046415kek zoomers are fucking retarded
>>218046441Ah so they're different people, I remember balon having a weird bald spot so I thought there might be a connection there
>>218046407This reminds me of Ice and that reminds me of how cool Ice is and how its Valyrian Steel nature was ignored and there seemingly has never been a giant northerner who swings about Ice as a regular sword because the special steel makes it lighter in weight and retard northerner strength would only help in that.George robbed us of an honourable 8ft big bastard that could've been called the Northern Demon or something like that.
Post your favourite pics (or vids), please.I need to fill my folder of memes.
>>218046439Fucking love the block+thrust at 0:18. Impeccable camerawork.
>>218046415
>>218046501>yoooo imagine if this dude was swinging a big retarded sword!!1oneanimetroons try to ruin everything with this shit
>>218046523I love how he knocks Dunk down with the shield by hitting the leg
>>218046521
>>218046521I trade my gamer Aemond for that Margery.
>>218046415>balonGreyjoy? No, what the fuck how would that even work?
>>218046434Was the Mad King really worse than Aegon IV?
>>218046521you better post that marge
>>218046364what happened with black people after HotD?have they mysteriously went extinct?
>>218046521I like the asoiaf Ukiyo-e
>>218046598Same thing that happened to them in this show
>>218046598Great Spring Sickness got them all. Tragic.
Reminder that the Hand of the King when Aegon the Unworthy legitimised Daemon Blackfyre was Jon Hightower and he also introduced Seastar's mother to court. Hightowers have been controlled the Dumb Dragons for years. Victarian will probably arrive with Dany and turn on Euron, saving Oldtown, legitimising her rule and giving him control over the Iron Islands (what he wants) with free reign to plunder the West, which will have lost all its ships and allies.
i must imagine next episode is maekar fuming in seething regret over how he allowed himself to gamble two of his sons' lives and kill his brother over a basically meaningless teenage squabble. he could've just sentenced dunk to 1000 hours of community service and bitchslapped aerion and it would've been the end of it
Our King....
>>218046640MY King
>>218046598
>>218046563he was crueler
>>218046501What we needed is a legendary figure from the Riverlands fucking Lannister shit up beside half-dead Dondarrion and old fart Blackfish. They barely have any noteworthy fighters and the only particularly strong guy is Crakehall by blood and also a traitorous Frey cunt.
>>218046653ACK
>>218046598Aegon III ushered in the total cleansing of themthats why he's commonly refered to as MCDLXXXVIII
>>218046536big sword cool
>>218046640Our sweet King.
>>218046409>>218046439the main problem is he is wearing a maille hauberk while everyone else is in full plate
>>218046545>>218046611>>218046644Thanks, mates. Greats choices.>>218046592>>218046558Sure thing, here you go lads.
>>218046563He was crazier. Mentally. Aegon IV was crazy politically. He did not give a single fuck. The Mad King probably wouldn’t have liked him much. The Mad King did appreciate his family. The fat king gave away precious artifacts and legitimized so many bastards it almost destroyed the realm.There is no contest. The fat king was a lot worse than the Mad King.
agggh...
>>218046681well its cheaper and Dunk is brokeRaymun also only wears a greathelm and basic clothes
anyone have pics of the redhead?
>>218046611I love this artwork so much.

What do you guys think Stannis would have done if Brienne had never appeared?
>>218046364gross, the faggot janny obsessed with this race mixing shit anime is making the thread nowblow your brains out faggot and stop promoting your negroid hotd garbage
Women are something else, kek
>>218046750>I wonder how Storm's End is doing.
>>218046732Is that actually supposed to be Mel? I assumed it was some tyrell bitch or a highborn bastard because she doesn't look like the peasent lowborns
>>218046759mad at anime
>>218046765Female asoiaf twitter fans are dumb
>>218046770what the fuck are you talking about anon
>>218046460Both Tyrion and Tywin are insufferable reddit retards high on their own farts. I enjoyed watching them fall.
>>218046801I thought you were implying that the red hair bitch is Melisandre. I didnt read the books but it would check out
>>218046699Raymun wears a hauberk plus a coat-of-plates on top.
>>218046521You must share with us.
>>218046705
>>218046789
>Egg... Don't be afraid, he is just black.
>Maekar actually leans forward to check up on daeron when he's putting his helmet on in the opening scenecute

>>218046690If Tommen had lived to old age he would have had at least 13 children with her.
>>218046926And she would have fucked me too
>>218046885>Maekar and Baelor could have been having fun watching knights blast the fuck out of each other right now if Aerion wasn't such a complete fucking retardAmazing how you can have about five or six decent Targs and it only takes ONE to fuck things up for the rest of them.
>>218046523yea it was kinoshows his skill when dunk just clobbers him
>>218046792I like themeven though some of them are delusional
This trial proved that Maekar was the one actually won the battle against the Blackfyres, not Baelor.
Hate Dornish.Hate weaklings.He bore the sword.Simple as.
>>218046801Imagine some hot red witch appears telling you're azor ahai. I don't blame Stannis for simping
>>218046879Gods I wish we could go back to the early 2010's, we would surely get at least one or two flashbacks of Aegon plapping some cute highborn ladies.

what is the redhead girl's name?
>>218047016Red - that is not being doing a bit, that is what she is credited as.
of course hardying and and beesbury got stuck fighting fucking Kingsguards
>>218046961I didn't even realize what was wrong at first kek.
>>218047016Whore
>>218046974>everyone ends up giving credit to the elder, more popular brother than the younger, dutiful sibling
>>218047029where is beesbury?
>Watch newest episode>"Drumf is le bad"Cringe woke writing ruining the show
>>218047016Do you mean the character or the actress? Rowan Robinson for the actress and what said >>218047021 for the character.
>>218047012I think they do the 4 legs shit on purpose to piss of George
>>218046979She should've let Gendry smash properly as an apology for leeching his dick. It's not like he knows of her true hag form.
>>218046857You're right. I must share a couple myself.>>218046740>>218046705>>218046879Thank you, guys.>>218046961nice fandrawing you did, anon.
>>218047047gonereduced to atoms
>>218046993It's got to be legitimate torture to be a Targ that just wants to have a normal life. You either get shitfucked into seeing horrible nightmares or there's like a 70% chance one of your siblings comes out objectively evil and wants to start shit for zero reason.
>>218046598One of eggs more popular reforms was introducing tighter border control.
>>218047046imagine if stannis had sons like maekar did
>>218047047blink and you miss it, he's dying on the floor, we see him later after this moment with his hands on the lance in his guts

>>218046986i love the unreal 4 hair physics
>>218047101It's actually genuinely respectful that Donnel used a pun from Beesbury's house when he went out.I think he appreciated that.

>>218047098>>218047142
>>218047053I just thought of how painful those gauntlets would be if someone were to crush them with your fingers still inside.
Why did he do it, /got/hotd/dunk/?
>>218047047At rest with his Queen, bumbling in the combs of joy.
>>218047158Right in the stinger, damn.
>fetch me an actress that a white male character will be allowed to display affection towards
Did my goat survive? Did he deal any damage?
>>218046750wtf is that armor supposed to be
>>218047202He got his shit pushed in by the REAL goat Raymun.

>>218047098>>218047142>>218047158WHY IS NO ONE HELPING HIM?!!????
>>218046422I thought that dunc was into brown girls. Why was he claiming to be Baelor's husband?
>>218046699that looks like a brigandine
What kind of Fossoway are you?
>>218047060Season 8 would've been tolerable if they went out with the bang and whored out every attractive actress they had left. Sansa, Dany, Brienne, Mel, even Meera should've been brought back and fucked vigorously by Bran warging Tormund or Ghost
>>218047222
>>218047244Beecause they can't.
>>218047244Yeah let me perform field surgery on a guy while the fucking Kingsguard is trying to lop my head off
>>218047202
>>218047196Rhoynar phenotype. Typical for the old agricultural population of Southern Essos with many unique features, adapted to dry climate. Very ancient and distinct. Stature is rather short, the bodies are lean, women show steatopygia. Propensity for greyscale.
>>218047244Beecause he is gone...
>>218047233You could tell in earlier episodes before the bracken smog had settled in.
>>218046750what's he using the charging cable for?
>>218047258i recognize the (((targs))) as incestuous aliens
>>218046750Gee I dunno maybe continue being the rightful heir to the Seven Kingdoms?Edit: thank you for the gold kind stranger!Edit2: Umm, so this is kind of blowing up. Please be nice in the comments section, just because someone doesn't support Stannis does NOT mean you get to misgender them.
>>218047268oh thank the seven we have a physician on our team
>>218047260As much as I appreciate in, anon, not got/hotd/dunk related, unless we are to just open the floodgates and post images and webms of Natalie Dormer.
>>218047029he didn't have to hit Hardying on the fucking head 4 times jesus
>>218047302
what's it like having a Dornish gf?
>>218047302>Tommen got to put his small uncut dick between those bunsLucky bastard.
>>218047274he made his cousin look like a bitch, you could tell Raymun was pissed
>>218047296Ewwww that hand
>>218046415>balonMaybe you mean Bolton? I can see the confusion
>>218047302Whats next? No ros posting?
>>218047145Oh, that's awesome. thanks.
>>218046750Poor guy. Melisandre could've at least stayed and lit up some swords on fire.
>>218047341
>>218047357>those anglo genes

>>218047336>Make a new friend with some big fuckoff guy that wants to be a knight and is all around a good guy>Saves a puppeteer that was just entertaining people after the only dickhead Targ of the bunch throws a shitfit and breaks her fingers instead of just telling her to knock it off with the Dragon or reporting her to the Lord like a normal fucking person>Now friend is forced to fight an unjust Trial after the cunt of a Targ forced a Trial of Seven since the Targ is a pussy bitch>Cousin in a showcase of not being a total bitch says he'll fight with your new friend and pull some favors to get more fighters to help>Turns tail and fights for the Targ that killed a horse a few days ago purely for LordshipI'd be fucking pissed too, man.
>>218046439>>218046409The problem is the show should've focused on Dunk's natural physicality and how he uses it against Aerion. The show was trying too hard to be GoT so it had to bait you with Dunk losing the fucking brawl that he should've easily overpowered Aerion in.
>>218047377Is she even British? It says she is born in England but here name Esmé Augusta Bianco, which sounds Italian rather than bong.
>>218047145‘‘Twas I who requested the Manwoody one all those years ago.
>>218047367Yea it's kind of important to not have disgusting, horrible, nightmare anatomy if you're making coombait.
>>218047364I found so weird the way Melisandre just abandons him and that's it. Nothing happens
>>218047415He was winning the brawl before being stabbed by Aerions daggerWhat more do you want?
>>218046409wtf they stole full plate tank dunk from us
Does anyone have the meme that is something like Northern houses being dishonorable that the fans ignore whereas they praise Ned being honorable and the typical Northman despite being raised in the Vale by Jon Arryn?
any of you guys play the ASOIAF tabletop games?working on a Baratheon-Targaryen cadet line, thinking of calling it Stormfyre
>>218047367that image must be really impressive if youre from new delhi
>>218047442>not putting it close enough to the pool to jump in
>>218046776>>218046895So she's definitely Rohanne Webber right? She'll be married to old Lord Webber who'll die before next season so she's not got a legit claim to the Webber Castle unless she can prove she can hold it or marry the Longinch, that way audiences won't be confused when she and Dunk fuck right?
The rest of the series should be Dunk and Egg in Weekend at Baelor's
>>218047480You are exactly the person that the image is making fun of
>>218047491Anon, she is literally a whore named Red.
>>218047442>trampoline and a pool in a place where it's decently hot out to swim almost all year>fat Genuinely hard to imagine. Get a treadmill and just alternate between the three and surely you'd get fit in a few months, right?
>>218047491why would Lady Rohanne be at Ashford larping as a whore for Lord Dondarrion?
>>218047415Aerion may be a skinny twink, but he probably got taught from the best, you dont see brute strength in his fighting, you do see dexterity and precision strikes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QS6E0hu52RkIT'S UP
>>218047442imagine the smell
Why is Maekar so casual for a Targ? He makes me laugh.
>>218047491She is definitely Rohanne Webber you're correct anon.
>>218047258The unripe kind.
>>218046879
I really, really, really don’t want George to finish the books. None of you deserve it.
So I heard this new show is Kino, is it actually good?
>>218047536He’s a frustrated chill bro just like myself
>>218046879But was it rape?
>>218047329The days are hot and the nights are hotter.
what's the deal with House Lothston?
>>218047274So they cut the shield scene but he still has the green apple. All for an overlong flashback.
>>218047511Dondarrion likes to fuck men's wives, she said it herself.
>>218047506Nobody names their kid Red. Red's just her working name. >>218047511She's still a whore. She can become a lady between now and next season when she gets married to Lord Webber who she probably meets here at Ashford.
>>218046364Baelor I "the dickless" was directly responsible for the conception of daemon blackfyre. If he didn't imprison Daena in a fucking maidenhall like an absolute cunt aegon wouldnt have had too rescue her "bang her". Baelor was the unworthy one and one of the worst kings
This flashback should have just been in episode. I don't know why shit writers are addicted to flashbacks, the original GoT got it right by doing almost zero true flashbacks other than the time travel crap
>>218047554Did the children of the forest do this in the books? I don’t remember any fucking fireballs.
>>218047602Baelor was a mistake. The Targaryens should've instituted dynastic elections right after the Dance to avoid shit like Baelor.
>>218047602rhaenyra's line overall was pretty unlucky or stupideasy to see why the dynasty went downhill
>>218047602You’ll set that one guy who is convinced Daemon is Baelor’s son off again.
>>218047619That scene is from Winds of Winter. We just know the Children can use magic of some kind but we never see it.
>>218047596Is this bait and we are retards for falling for it, or are you just actually retarded?
>>218047619You mean the firebombs? No, that's a show invention.
>>218047536Maekar and Baelor grew up at probably the best time for a Targ to have a normal humbling life. No fuckass dragons ruining everything and it's just normal awful war to break you down. After the shit life he had with the Blackfyre he's likely just a tired man that hates the bullshit in life.
>>218047244They had to leave him bee, theres a fight going on
>>218047569They're soulless creatures of the night. Like darkstar.
>appear in Westeros as Aegon the Conqueror's advisor.>"kill all of the Hightowers, trust me">1000 years of Targaryen peace
>>218047551I prefer the show ending to whatever all the fans wanted so I’m good
>>218047569they're vampireslike house bolton
>>218047688Does Westeros have werewolves?
>>218047684very kosher post
>>218047648Why would you believe that they would cast another fucking ginger in the next season as Rohanne Webber when there's already a ginger in the show who has been shown appreciating Dunk? It's more appropriate to the HBO adaptations for her to be a version of Rohanne Webber who marries old Lord Webber after seducing him/turning him on, getting pregnant, and having a miscarriage before he dies, than for them to find some other actress to play Lady Webber. Particularly, as we've already seen from Tanselle and Rafe, when Dunk likes pretty negresses? It's easier for HBO to make the lady a whore to explain the political conflict she faces over her rule of Standfast and the Webber lands from the Webber cousins if she's just a common slut raised to the high seat like Tytos's whore wife. And it has the added benefit of making the only white love for Dunk a commoner whore than some highborn lady.
>>218047702Yeah westeros has arya.
>>218047571them waiting on him to paint a shield after all that "dead man walking up the noose" tension done last episode would be ridiculous
>>218047610>the original GoT got it right by doing almost zero true flashbacksSeason 5 was the beginning of the end. The Cersei flashback was retarded, and they couldn’t even hire an actual hag to play Maggy the Frog .
>>218047569>Manfred Lothstonlul
>>218047688>Roose Bolton tried convincing Robert and Ned to flay Barristan Selma after capturing him at the TridentWhat the hell were the Starks thinking allowing the Bolton line to continue?
Anybody got a webm of Aerion's sword throw?
>>218047715preston how much does the federal government pay you to force autistics into murderous rage purely via posting stupid opinions about game of thrones media?
>>218047715She is wearing a lot of gold for a common whore
>>218047735Roose brought his levies with him to help Ned and fight the battles in the southIt's surprisingly loyal, even if the guy seems creepy and weird
>>218047491She is the daughter of the late Lord Webber, not his wife. Why would they rewrite it so she is his smallfolk born wife?
>>218047075That's exactly why Vaegoon never stayed in touch after he fucked off to the Citadel.
>>218047735They should have listened. Roose is right.
>>218046521The latest episode fucking sucked. We made it 4 episodes before they just fucked off and started doing fanfiction.. this is like record speed for fucking up.
>>218047645>We just know the Children can use magic of some kind but we never see it.We already know they can use magic. If we go by George’s logic regarding glamors, the children of the forest likely had a very easy time of performing them, using the overwhelming familiarity of things like leaves and twigs. They could probably camouflage. This is just my basic assumption. They wove twigs and leaves in ways that men just can’t. Similar to Tolkien’s elves working art humans just can’t. Or the Others working ice in ways humans just can’t. Or Valyrians shaping black stone using sheer magic (dragon fire is pure magic).
>>218047684I’ve always had suspicions that I was jewish coded but my support of the Hightowers and Bloodraven confirms it
>>218047415>The problem is the show should've focused on Dunk's natural physicality and how he uses it against AerionWe watching the same show? Every time they weren't fighting with weapons, Dunk was absolutely wrecking him due to sheer size and weight. They actually portrayed it quite clearly. Dude was smothering that Targ little shit.
NOOOOOO MY DRAGONS MAEGOR HELP ME!!!!!
>>218046766+1 for frogfu
>>218047684>tell (((targs))) to destroy the defenders of western education and faithBit on the nose there.
>>218047684Good.Destroying the Hightower's Golem Factory is key to future stability.
>>218047778Supporting the Hightowers as a Targ loyalist is only natural. They probably share distant origins. Both were likely enslaved by whatever precursor race originally had dragons. Similar to the Ironborn. Even their names are similar.
>>218047684>incestuous aliens that lost their homeland killing tall, fair-haired western menHmm...
>>218047725Just have him running back with his helm and the new shield, show it off, and that's it. It'd be easy, and they took out the tension by having such a long flashback.
S2 Episode 7>introduce a guy this season who's barely around and claim to fame is "brother of the other guy">was able to wrangle and help domesticate a wild dragon inbetween episodesHoly shit brother this stuff STINKSDaemon in Luigi's Mansion has been the only decent shit this season
>>218047610They could've spaced it out over several episodes. They were already doing that with Arlan. Then this one could've just been the fight where Arlan saves Dunks life, and cut there without that silly story of Dunk following Arlan.
>>218047715Do all redheads look alike to you or something? What fucking insane logic are you operating on? As >>218047756 said, why go against the source material in such a weird and convoluted way.
>NOOOOO YOU CAN'T FUCK YOUR SIS-ACK
Daily reminder that Lord Ashford imports sheep from the Vale.
>>218047838Season 2 House of the Dragon is the 2nd worst season of GoT television, behind Season 8 of Game of Thrones.
color came back for the finale
>>218047752Remember how much Tywin hated how the whore was rewarded with his mother's jewels? >>218047756So it's grimmer and dirtier, and they don't need to recast the actress, and because there's that whole subplot of the other Webbers wanting to take over Coldmoat but she can put them off if she marries the Longinch. In this case they can just make her common born instead of delving into dynastic politics which some dumb writer on staff will say "bores audiences."
lol
>>218047868Naeh, season 6 and 7 are also worse.
>>218047336>you could tell Raymun was pissedHe was but above all he was giving it his all to stop him from getting near Dunk
>>218046681Agreed. What the fuck was Baelor thinking?
>>218047865So the sheep come pre-fucked?
>>218047805>Golem Factoryyou mean dragons? the creatures literally brought to life with blood magic?lmao
testing
The World book is quite literally trying to tell the reader that Valyria took the magic of the ‘Deep Ones’, ‘Naga’, etc, the same way the Grey King did, except on societal scale. The ancestors of the Hightowers beat back the “dragons” that originally roosted on the foundations of the Hightower. Those dragons would have predated Valyria. Naga was a god damned sea dragon. The Grey King took Naga’s “living fire” and cast aside the Seastone chair (why else would he do this if not to discredit its original builders?) and made his own seat. Why the FUCK is this so hard to understand? Places like Lorath, the Thousand Isles, Toad Isle, etc, didn’t fare so well. They actually lost. I don’t know why people want to pretend that there was some earlier not!Valyrian empire when nothing points to it.
which house is the equivalent of pic related?
>>218047887>to stop him from getting near Dunkso were they
>>218047852They already wrote up a detailed backstory for Dunk, cut out the tourney lances bit, have botched EVERY OTHER ADAPTATION OF ASOIAF they've ever done, and you still think they won't find a way to ruin S2 of Ko7K?
>>218047909Karstark
>>218047610If they were to do the flashback then they should have either shortened it considerably, done an entire episode on it, or spread it out across the others more. They could have easily have streamlined it in E5 and still have kept the same points. I suspect if the episode as a whole was 45 minutes then the flashback would not have been that badly received, but 20 or so minutes of what was 35 something minutes was the flashback. There could have been more of the fight, or if that is too much complexity or cost somehow to film then either the build up or the aftermath.
>>218047554
>>218047895He didn't bring his armor because he didn't think his retarded nephew would force a bumbling Hedge Knight into a Trial of fucking Seven, anon.
>>218047909House Frey.
SER DUNCAN THE TALL
>>218047919Yup
>>218047909umbers?
>>218047909Manderlys
Did the “nameless people from the shadow” teach Valyrians nicely or did the Valyrians rip it from their scaly hands?
>>218047684Don't really get the point of singling out a banking family who controls higher education, but okay
>>218047926
>>218047962>banking?
>>218047925I think if it was 45 minutes long they would've needed a longer battle scene before we got to the flashback to satisfy everyone. Show some more side cuts of which lances took out who. As it was, it was too long.
>>218047619Well they fought the First Men ages ago and some held their ground. What weapons do you think they use? Sticks and stones vs bronze swords and spears?
>>218047926This would be such a funny animatronic at a theme park.
>young dunk gets stabbed in the back of his leg>follows arlan for what seems like several days without any medical attentionI'm no doctor but realistically wouldn't his wound get infected and he'd die?
>>218046857what is the context for this?>>218046530I'm in this screenshot :)
>>218047838That whole season was an insult for those who were disappointed for GoT S8 finale.That's why I remained skeptical after AKotSK ep1. It felt like another punch in the gut, mocking the audience with the diarrhea and endless spitting.I'm happy to be wrong. And I hope HotD S3 redeems itself as well
>>218047929He had plenty of time to find armor. Even if it was ill-fitting. Something is better than literally nothing. What the fuck was the blacksmith doing? They tournie was cancelled, but he seemed to imply he would have Dunk's armor ready. That fat mother fucker couldn't possibly have meant lengthening a suit of mail cost that much.
>>218047984Fire burns trees. I feel like they wouldn’t like fire much. They’d probably send wild beasts at them. Or have trees and plants grow in the most annoying places.
>>218048007Kids are invincible.
>>218048007Dunk dunk'd the dunkcetion
>>218048007Yes.
>>218048016cameo in the original pilot that they shitcanned
>>218048018>And I hope HotD S3 redeems itself as wellhahahaha
>>218047909Umber or Manderly.
>>218047502>you fall within the arbitrary position that i have constructed to fit you into You are not very smart are you
>>218047980I would say the problem is just the flashback interrupts the flow in whatever way you do it. As it is you barely get any of the fight before going to the flashback. If you show more of the fight then go to the flashback then you still interrupt the flow. If you intersect the flashback throughout the entire fight then that just becomes a mess.
>>218048019It was a last minute decision to prevent a PR disaster for the royal family in the aftermath of the Blackfyre rebellions.He started looking for armor when Steffon betrayed Dunk.
>>218048038I haven't read the books yet. They've deviated this much?
>>218048038If he would stop pissing everyone off maybe he'd get his stories adapted faithfully and still have time to write them.
>>218048007Yeah especially when he got stabbed in Flea fking Bottom of all places.Maybe he put boiling oil on it and it wasn't shown.>>218048022It was implied in the books they are magical aren't they? Also they teamed up with giants and they still lost? And giants themselves got wiped out by the First men apprently.
>>218048067You missed s2? It's 90% fanfic
>>218048069just adapt the fucking book instead of writing fanfiction, ryan
>>218047977
>>218048063I think we got our wires crossed. I meant why didn't Baelor look for armor for Dunk. He should have asked the guy what he had, and been like, "Oh you really are a fucking brokie." and found the dude something to wear. Again, what was the fat fuck blacksmith doing?
Maekar is a stronger man than me because I think I'd probably fucking rip my son to pieces with my own hands if his retarded bullshit ended up getting my brother killed.
>>218048094>western men that don't trust eastern merchants with their moneybased
>>218048083>It's 90% fanficthat fucking sucks. might as well can it at this point
>>218048091Adapt what? Fire and Blood isn't a novel, it's a textbook listing events. There isn't any dialogue to adapt.
>>218048038It keeps happening!
>>218048037good thing they shitcanned it, it looks fucking awful. At first, I thought it was some low rent reneaissance fair/sci-far larping event
>>218048100Immediate banishment, desu.
>>218048080Children of the forest lost to a bunch of magic-less (idk maybe they had weird shaman) and dragon-less cavemen, kek. I don’t know WHY people think that Valyria was afraid of them.
>>218048097>what was the fat fuck blacksmith doing?That blacksmith wanted to pour boiling oil on a wound. He's a stupid, simple low-tier blacksmith.That's speech about honest steel, no ornaments etc was a marketing gimmick to justify why he doesn't do custom designs (he lacks the talent).
>>218048120Disowning and banishment is honestly the kindest thing you could do, yeah. The bastard is lucky Maekar went right into permanent depression mode because I honestly think Aerion would have lost a limb or something if Maekar was pissed enough.
>>218048106S3 is going to crash hard
>>218048067Think of it like this: Take one of the antagonists of a famous work and show how they are misunderstood by everyone so that their every action seems evil. Then take their rival or foe and make them really evil and nasty. Say, take Severus Snape and show how he's just an evil and nasty bastard with no redeeming qualities, and make his hatred of the Marauders just the product of his misunderstanding their youthful and innocent antics. And make the Marauders all gay for extra bonus points.
>>218048094Based, fuck those degenerate valyrian jews.
>>218048128They had the strength of the Faith.
>>218048159But will it crash because it doesn't have Nettles, the one great love of Daemon Targaryen's life and the only fairytale romance that has a happy ending in Planetos?
>>218048105>>218048167Oy Vejes, the Andals are onto us!
>>218048180We're talking First Men, not Andals.
Baelor preferred Dunk wearing his simple armor because he wanted to look like he was protecting a common man of the people.Had he survived Ashford, both the smallfolk and even the lords present (including the lords paramount Longthorn Tyrell, Grey Lion Lannister) would carry the story of how he's honorable, good man, make a great king etc.
Damn Ira and his barely containable scat fetish, if it weren't for the retarded and out of place fart/poop jokes this show would be a 10/10
>>218048162might as well read the book and skip that show
>>218048094>Hightowers are fantasy jewsthat makes a lot of sense with all the backstabbing and treason plots
>>218048232It is weird to me how they don't work at all, but fart jokes are done probably a dozen times an episode with Slow Horses and no one seems to mind. I am only making the comparison because both are serious dramas with comedic elements, and both star fuck up imbeciles, and both use fart jokes.
>>218048268by that logic all the great houses are jews
>>218048232remove the shitting, the long dong, the guy spitting in a zoomerlike comedic timing and you have GoT S1 types of kino
>>218048197First men cucked to the children and started worshipping them as gods
>>218048285only the ones that control the banks
>>218048285I guess you're right.Maybe it's the one known for being incestuous, eastern, fulls of schizos, uses blood magic, lost its homeland, and resents Western men.
>>218048285yeah everyones family controls the bank and the university and dabbles in jewish physics, come on
>>218047610stretches out the episode count
>>218046409once again the adaptation ruins the book
>>218048304>Maybe it's the one known for being incestuous, eastern, fulls of schizos, uses blood magic, lost its homeland, and resents Western men.wait, why are targaryens so jewish-coded?
Did everyone on team Aerion use a war lance? Did Maekar charge at his brother with a deadly lance :(
>>218048309>the physics they dabble in are literally from Valyrialmao
>>218048281The uses are different, Slow Horse has Gary Oldman use them in a gross way but the people in-world acknowledge it being gross and chastise him for it. Also it's part of his whole disgraced spymaster schtick.Here it's used as gross-out humor for the audience and nothing else really.
>>218048325GRRM said they were partially inspired by the Hebrews.
>somehow survives against a bunch of heavyweights despite being knighted only 5 minutes ago and nobody there to go easy on him except maybe his own cousin since kinslaying is a sinpretty crazy
>>218044781Theory is that he saw how popular Oberyn was and tried to replicate that with Darkstar. If he succeeded or not depends on the individual.
>>218048419He went easy on his cousin lol
>>218048419You weren't paying attention
wasn’t dunk’s helm supposed to be what saved him since its a normal helm and not some quackery arieon had?
>>218048419the goal is literally not to kill each other
>>218048508yeah but this is hollywood and not showing the actor's faces makes them chimp out
I bet these whackos still have dragons
>>218048508well, it did save him
>>218048419I think the goal is the accuser/accused and the ball is your sword. Anything other casualties are incidental
>>218046439As an animeonly, I do really love how they manage to showcase that A-Arion has really great technique and a ton of skill from years of training. he does a great job of creating openings, and following them up with combos. But it mostly all just bounces off of Dunk
>>218048639sheik vs ganondorf
>>218048558not like we are going to find out unless someone steals the fat bastards pc
>>218048005They tried something like that at disneyland, but they had to remove it because casties kept getting their dicks ripped off
>>218048639The fact people bitch about this pisses me off. The entire point of actual knights (not like Dunc) was that they were functional super soldiers who were trained since childhood to kill people. A suit of armor is just one component, but somehow everyone immediately assumes that if you have a suit of armor on you're at least sort of on the same level as the 20 year old who has trained in his armor all the time since he could walk.
>>218047838I think my biggest issue with S2 so far is how boring it is.Yeah there are WAYYYYYY more dumb moments that are pretty fucking bad, but it's not like the inbetween is up to par either. It's insane how over the course of 7 episodes I maybe recall a few key events. Not saying S1 was some masterpiece but there was SOMETHING there.Hell the two characters I enjoy watching Aemond and Daemon are just kinda fiddling about (the Daemon stuff is kino but it'll be like 5 minutes in a hour and 10 minutes episode ffs)
>>218048356The odd thing there is that Gary Oldman is the one who insists on the farts and demands that they add more and make them louder in the edit. He thinks they're hilarious. So his, in a way, are even worse since he's playing to an audience of one with them.
Valarr Targaryen, Baleor's son, is now the crowned prince>>218048731Otto and Viserys hard carried season 1 of HOTD. After they both left, it collapsed. I would have liked some Viserys flash backs in season 2.
>>218047442>I AM LE TURTLE, LOL. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE ;)>He unironically makes the same mistakes as the hare I have never been into the books, but I fully understand why he makes people seethe
>>218048508Aerion just has a highly stylized BascinetDunk has a Frogmouth helm, a German design from the 1400s despite the rest of his armor being a simple Maille hauberk more appropriate to a 11th century Norman knight at the time of Williams Conquest
>>218046923saar do not criticize the ai! benchot bastard!
>>218048925>Dunk has a Frogmouth helm, a German design from the 1400s dit's amazing aesthetically
Meh, as much as I like the show, it felt unrealistic and not typical GoTDunk should not have survived or even fucking tanked all of the shit he did by the power of le friendship, no matter how big he is, pain is the same, shock is the same, nerve endings are the sameAerion was just the better fighter and fucked him numerous times, no man would have stood that, like the Mountain in GoT against Oberyn
>>218048988He got stabbed like 12 times and somehow will never have permanent damage ever again.
new where
>>218048988Idk you're just wrong desu
