Blackfyre Rebellion edition Previous>>218067077
Thank you, Sara Smith! Fuck you, Sara Hess!
Eat an arrow
>>218069740Will S2 be based enough to give them blood red armour like that?
Why does no one in Westeros have an STD?
>>218069740Eat two
>>218069758They do at least in the books
>>218069662>What was Ned having when he went to Cersei with great news about him discovering her treasonous incsetuous affair i wonder.PTSD flashbacks to when he was his nephew's siblings brutalized corpses and not wanting it to happen againthe thing people don't get about Ned is that he was 100% willing to die, he thought Arya and Sansa would be out of the city soon. He couldn't predict that Sansa would betray him. Warning Cersei wasn't a fatal mistake, not having the balls to make a move while Robert was dying definitely was. But again, Ned is ready to die doing the right thing. Cersei moving faster than expected to capture Sansa and Arya thanks to Sansa's warning is what fucked him over
>>218069758Because most STDs are a produce of western colonialism and rape of locals and spreading diseases globally. Hence why ancient societies were very sexually open with temples also being brothels, they didn't have aids, the clap etc to worry about
>>218069719>She's Hoster Tully 2.0 with how grasping she isSpeaking of him, what the fuck was he doing since the end of rebellion and until the present day? And why wasn't there anyone on the small council to represent Tullys? Why did he check out of the politics completely, was the wound inflicted by JonCon's gay sword that bad?
>>218069758The Jews have not created aids yet
>>218069693Reminder that all the chad houses backed Daemon. It was the beta houses and Maesters that backed Daeron.
>>218069758Vargo Hoat does.
>>218069791>The JewsArent braavosis the jews of planetos?
>Seven forgive me Daemon, but you may be a stronger man than your father, Aegon IV was>Thank You Aegor, but the fundamental question is will i be as effective as a King as my dad was>And i will be>even more so, but until i am it's gonna be hard to verify that i think i'll be more effective
I hate the trope when a fantasy series is two armies colliding on an open field but the two most important leaders have time to fight single combat in the middle of a massive battle, just the fact that they would be able to find each other amidst thousands of other soldiers clamoring around is a fucking joke, and just the fact that some other guys from the other army wouldn't just attack the leader and try to kill him instead of letting the two of them fight it out on their own, fucking retarded. This never happened in real life and GRRM for all his "tax policy" wank is a hack. The vast majority of the time the commanders / leaders of an army would just sit back and watch the battle happen, rarely if ever would a commander just get into the fray, and if they did they would be with the cavalry and be flanking or some shit, not just riding into the fight to find the enemy important guy to duel. Fuck GRRM, what a hack
>>218069774>he thought Arya and Sansa would be out of the city soon. He couldn't predict that Sansa would betray him.Should've secured Sansa. You would think he'd learned his lesson about not letting his children run around unnatended after the whole Micah and Nymeria thing.
The most promising thing to come out of the season 3 buzz for HotD is Ryon saying they are finally going to make Rhaenyra, you know, cruel.And all the fucking toxic rhaenicent fans that enjoyed season 2 are losing their fucking minds saying he is trying to ruin her. like she shouldn't have been a giant cunt the entire time.
>>218069785I doubt Jon Arryn was eager to reward the fucker who forced him to marry his whore daughter. Hoster's bigger fuckup was doing nothing but antagonizing the Freys. He should have either stripped some of their lands for not fighting or shut the fuck up. Instead he just insulted Walder frey for nearly 2 decades and his grandson had to pay for it
>>218069844Muh realism
>>218069758They call it lovers' pox iirc
>and*ls and worst men immediately chimp out after 1 non-Targaryen kingThe Seven Kingdoms literally cannot survive without the strong hand of The Dragon guiding them.Blackfyre or Targaryen, it makes no difference. The Realm needs a Valyrian.
>>218069850>wow the people who got there entire family killed, super incest, super politics, and constant fighting while losing dragons and made there Aegon the third highly depressed aren’t good people?
>>218069844This is fiction dumbass. Things happen in order to serve the narrative, not to fit into your autistic view of what would realistically happen. Why do the two leaders meet in the field of battle? Because it would be lame as fuck if random soldier number 432 stabbed him in the head.
>>218069844He does the opposite with the commanders staying safely away from the battles which imo makes for very impersonal and detached battles. On the other hand, he makes Tyrion into a methed-out fantasy dwarf on the battlefield so idk.
Post Baelor art.The king that never was.
>>218069844how often does this happen? Only one I can think of is Robert and Rhaegar. Daemon fights a Vale knight, not any of the Targ leaders
>>218069844Would you believe that men used to stand in lines and fire guns at each other for honor in a time way more advanced?
>>218069866>The Seven Kingdoms literally cannot survive without the strong hand of The Dragon guiding them.They managed well enough for thousands of years before Aegon came along.
WORST. BIRTHDAY. EVER.
>>218069911
>>218069945
>>218069844Everyone dies in this series anon what are you talking about? In fact this might be one of the few times something like this happened. Also wouldn’t you want to people prove themselves in a time without dragons?
Is it just me or does Dunc have a massive case of jungle fever?
>>218069866The Targ rule only lasted for 300 years, in the grand history of the seven kingdoms that's absolutely nothing.
>>218069934>managed well enoughMy brother in Christ they were constantly at each other's throats.The war of the five kings is a retvrn to tradition.
>>218069866>flames of war are fanned by Varys, a blackfyre shitter>root cause of the war is because Varys hid the incest so it would blow up in the worst way possible and cause the wartargshits and their bastards are the root cause of almost all problems. The only functional place is Essos is braavos, a city founded to escape valyrian degeneracy. Every other city is a backwards shithole dependent on slavery
>>218069825The Jew is George Martin, the fat fuck making stupid shows like this. This slow is jew slop.
>>218069969>huge>hungry>retard>socially inept>jungle feverHe's literally me...
Why do people assume that the actor for sir arlan used a prosthetic cock? Im an expert with cocks so I can guarantee that its genuine
>>218069985Yeah and they survived for thousands of years. Your point?
>>218069851Arryn's wouldn't shut out the equally important leader of the rebellion. Hoster should've pushed for some riverlands representation in the court considering how they're so susceptible to raiding and Hoster saw firsthand how treacherous and unpredictable Tywin is.
>>218069844There plenty of commanders and kings in the history who were so called warrior kings, theres a good reason why for example the swedish kings used to die all the fucking time since they preferred to rule from the front
>given multiple chances to stand down and talk it out>chooses the try and kill Ned while Lyanna is crying out Ned's name from the towerwhat the fuck was his problem?
Are the Tarags coward losersfor leaving there homeland while being a lower house to take on houses without no dragons and are normies?
>>218070060Battls look so frightening and chaotic bros. I would never want to go to war. Why were humans so eager to kill and die throughout history?
>>218070061>the most honorable man wouldn’t understand!!!!!
>>218070061Rhaegar told him to kill anyone trying to approach Lyanna I guess.
>>218070095He didn't have that reputation yet.
>>218069979>lasted 4 times longer than the de Normandies>on average 10 times as much time between each war as de Normandie EnglandFunny as fuck how George wrote the fracticidal house of insane despots as the most stable medieval dynasty on accident.
>>218070067All I know is I hate all Targs
“Valyrians were an ancient, dragon-riding ethnic group from the Valyrian Freehold in Essos, characterized by silver hair and purple eyes. Targaryens were a specific, minor noble house among the forty dragonlord families of Valyria”Tarags are weak?
>>218069781>Because most STDs are a produce of western colonialism and rape of locals and spreading diseases globally. Hence why ancient societies were very sexually open with temples also being brothels, they didn't have aids, the clap etc to worry about
>>218070061Imagine if it was Cristin Cole and Alicent was inside the tower.
I bet this mf was the coolest guy to hang around with
>>218070061Anyone remember when they retcon'd out the third member of the kingsguard from the Tower of Joy?
>>218070089GREEN FUCKING BOY!!!!!!
>>218070112in-universe though they are joke tier and have to be compared to other houses. Freys are shit on for only being nobility for 600 years. Targs reduced themselves to their only surviving family being beggers in less than 300 years. Dumbshits weren't even smart enough to put aside some gold in the iron bank
>>218070089The guy who owns your land and the roof over your head tells you to, you don't have a choice. Either that or gtfo or get btfo.
>>218070027>they managed well enough because the elite survived>except for all the extinguished houses listed in the histories of the hundred kingdomsI guess the reign of Garth Greybeard wasn't that bad, after all the Gardeners survived 7 different armies rampaging across the Reach.
They are all fine guys, everyone is ok
Did the tournament director guy only let Dunc into the tournament after he turned around and he saw the crest on his shield?
>>218070164>Second son Beric Dayne of the house StarfallHoly ESL. Also Starfall is a house now? >wielder of the great white blade Dawn forged from a fallen starLol. Lmao.
>>218070109the fact he showed up with only a few trusted men instead of an army implies he suspected Lyanna was pregnant and was willing to keep it quiet. They babble about how kingsguard don't kneel, meanwhile Barristan is literally serving Robert kek. Then they chimp out and attack. Ned should fucking hate Arthur Dayne
Fucking coward the way he killed our goat daemon chadfyre
Talia Forrester is so fucking hot.
>>218069911he's alive don't worry
>>218070294the only kings worth serving never sat the throneBaelor TargaryenDaemon BlackfyreAnd we all know who to blame for it.(((HE))) pit them against each other the rat fuck.
>>218070296She's cute. I'm still waiting for Forrester sweep
>>218070296for me? it's bolton gfsI can fix them
AERION! MY BOY!
>>218070329Wasnt egg a good king?
>>218069911>>218070335
>>218070331>tfw no bolton doomer gf who encourages you to be like maegor the cruel while you want to be duncan the tall
>>218070349He was too focused on uplifting the commons, it alienated the lords which pushed him to accidentally-ing his entire family at summerhall. He was a good man, he wasn't a good king.
>>218070294What did you expect? He was twice tainted with Blackwood and Targ blood. He could no less be a cowardly duplicitous bastard than a Stark could be an honorable fool.
>>218070317>kill your brother>bitch and moan that you will rightfully be called a kinslayer claim it's a lie because you were too much of a chimp to pay attention where you were swinging a macefuck maekar, he deserved getting smashed by that rock>Some men will say I meant to kill my brother. The gods know it is a lie, but I will hear the whispers till the day I die. And it was my mace that dealt the fatal blow, I have no doubt. The only other foes he faced in the melee were three Kingsguard, whose vows forbade them to do any more than defend themselves. So it was me. Strange to say, I do not recall the blow that broke his skull.
If I was Ethan, I would've bred her.
>>218070349To the smallfolk he was the best. This made the lords hate him.It's better to be loved by the people that make up vast majority of the realm and do 99.9% of the work that keeps it running imo.
i'm black yall and i'm black yall
>>218070148feel like he would be a good gym bro
>>218069693Reminder that spin off shows diminish ASOIAF. Fuck George, the fat fuck. I wish HBO would let it die.
>>218070400>claims he wants to help the smallfolk>tries to enforce a bunch of laws>while doing nothing to clean up his own backyard in flea bottomhow about he tries leading by example? Egg was a bum who wasn't charismatic enough to get lords to buy in, wasn't competent enough to show the long term benefits of helping the people, so he tried to get dragons to compensate and roasted most of his family
>>218070387You're a gay bitch.
>>218070404bend over boy, i'm gunna break you in
>finally good ASOIAF show>its finale next episodenot like this brosNOT LIKE THIS
Do D&D have nothing to do with this? Is that why it's pretty good?
>>218070370Hes was a good king but not a good politician
Why was Maekar swingin the mace that hard in his brother's direction in the first place. There's not way he needed that kind of force.
>>218070501He was trying to save his tardling from Dunc
>>218070459They torched their careers
>>218069911..the realm
>>218070501When your baby boy is on the verge of getting his head smashed in, you stop thinking rationally.
>>218070148What was his dealWhy did he rebelWasn't he and his brother fine with eacho ther
>>218070458Don't worry.. HotD soon.....
>>218069740I still cry everytime
>>218070522I AM YOUR MANPLEASEYOUR MAN
>>218070522i would've followed him to the end, my king
dumbass
>>218070524He felt like ItNo seriously. That was his deal he just wanted the throne because he felt like it
>>218070573Not cool dude
Baelor would have been a terrible king and I'm tired of people pretending otherwise because he was a "good" guy. He would just have been another Bloodraven puppet. A beloved puppet to be sure but a puppet nonetheless.
>>218070524He had the sword...
i get that the reign of House Targaryen ended the moment the Dance started but Baelor really felt like the last chance to salvage the name and unite the realm under Targaryen rule, how much longer till Bobby B's rebellion and house Targaryen crumbles?
>>218070553THE STUPID FUCKING GREENS AND BLACKS TOOK THIS FROM USFUCKING HIGHTOWERSFUCKING SEAHORSESFUCKING STUPID ONE EYED FREAKSFUCKING (((WOMEN)))
>>218070588he was a well praised hand who handled much of the ruling in his father's stead already.he already was a good ruler, he just wasn't king
>>218070593if dragons were still around Daemon Blackfyre probably would have tamed a really dangerous dragon and that would've caused another Dance unless they set "no using dragons rule" lol.Which dragon would Daemon B have?
>>218070588>>218070609What's his tax policy?
>Ser Arlan of Pennytree...Gods what a stupid name
Milfy Cat in a loose housecoat with Ned's cum running down her thigh while she prays to the Mother that she can birth another Stark son.
WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS
>>218070617>Which dragon would Daemon B have?assuming the Dance doesn't happen? that's a tough one.I think Baelor would get Caraxes or VermithorMaekar would get Silverwing, Daemon would funny enough probably get Maelys
>>218070553>not pictured: Rhaegel dancing naked on the back of his dragon while his children fall off it
Can't wait for Alicent and Rhaenyra to start working together again in season 3!
>>218070553I love how Brightflame is consistently portrayed as dripped the fuck out in art.
>>218070687will they or wont theyomg
>>218070553Maekar is gonn throw Aerion off lol
>>218070687ryon claims rhaenyra will finally be a cunt this season. I struggle to believe it, but if so it would be a step in the right direction.regardless, alicent would still be ruined beyond redemption.
>>218070501bloodraven warged him to clear the path for the Prince that was Promised. Maekar dindu nuffin
>>218070617>Bloodraven and Bittersteel fight over which of the resident edgelords gets to tame the Cannibal
>>218070666Daemon would have Baelrion if he wasn't a fossil by then
>>218070651it's so funny reading the first book and it is said that catelyn is like super hot even while being in her thirties, and then you look at the show and she looks... alright and is clearly like 50
Where did Bloodraven and Shiera learn to do magic in the first place? I thought all that stuff was forgotten hundreds of years before they were born
Aerion had the drip
>The lone wolf dies while the pack survives>btw I'm leaving to find out what's west of Westeros BYE
>>218070524He was unironically framed by either marcher lords who wanted a war against the Dornish court or by Bloodraven for shenanigans and dindu nuffin.Daeron sent men to arrest him BEFORE he rebelled.Justice for Daemon.
>>218070770We were robbed of this
>>218070770Bro was German.
>>218070751Ancestral blood memory
>>218070522
>>218070588This. He’d of probably been nothing but a damn liberal.
>>218070553Brat Aerion
Leaks up
Reminder Baelor could have survived if they started treatment immediately
>>218070898All he had to was not remove his helmet
>>218070896Tbh I don’t know what half of those things even mean and idc, not watching if there’s no tits. I’ll just read f&b instead
>>218070896straight out of wattpadpass, more dunk please
>>218070898>AI answer retard
rewatching KSK so comfy
>>218070896More hot lesbo makeouts pleaseRhaenyra and Helaena would be great
>>218070915>All he had to was not remove his helmetthey would have to stabilize the head first, engage in trepanation in order to remove the pressure and bleeding from the head.Although 99.99% of people in this universe couldn't do that, he had maesters with them and people with the maesters and could have prevented it.
>>218070896Jesus this is a fucking mess so I think it's real
>>218070950It's confirmed that people can survive it depending what is done after and the type of injury.
>>218070896>it's even worse than season 2No wonder George is upset.
>>218070717>ryon claims rhaenyra will finally be a cunt this seasonThe chimp outs if this turns out to be true will be hilarious. The women and gays have already clung on to Rhaenyra like Danaerys so expecting a similar reaction to when Danaerys lost her mind.
What if...HOTD was given over to KOTSK people? Could they salvage it?
I think Peter Claffey is going to be the first GoT star to actually become huge and be a big celeb. Nobody cares about any of the former GoT actors. Nobody is huge from there.
>>218070982>>218071001trepanning is a solution to swelling in the brain, baelor died because the back half of his skull was mush and his brains were damaged enough that some of it fell out. a pressure build up wasn't the problem
Thoughts on Cersei? Honestly, I think she could beat Dunk in a fight.
I have nothing but hatred for all these shows. These shows are the reason we won't get Winds. I hope they all fail and you all are disappointed in them in the end. You goy slop consumers deserve to feel pain.
>>218071060You goy slop consumer deserve to feel pain
>>218071001Trepanation is a primitive surgical procedure in during which a small part of the skull was removed to alleviate pressure on the brain.While it has been practiced back to the stone age I cannot stress enough that it is different from getting your Parietal bone crushed with a mace.
>maekor liquified the back of baelor's skull through armourHow strong?
>>218071039>Nobody cares about any of the former GoT actors. Nobody is huge from there.Well thats just not true. It gave us the plague that is Pedro Pascal. Midge has also secured any an all future midge roles.
>>218069866The chaos comes from binding kingdoms together into one empire. Each kingdom has a history like the Blackwoods and the Brackens with their neighbour. The realm is more stable when the kingdoms are free.
Reading through the novellas, Duncan seems to fail upward somehow constantly. I can only assume this is what life is like when you are super tall. Life just works out for you.
>>218071053Could Cersei seduce dunk? I think book cersei could
>>218071094If you watch a knight of the seven kingdoms you are slop consumer
>>218071109The spirits of a thousand green-seers guided his hand.
>>218071152If you read asiof you are a slop consumer
>>218069758a few people have greyscale
>>218071060
>>218071181Stupid fake ass fans like you would have never heard of it without the tv show
>>218071140Nah, she doesn't have the right skin or hair complexion
>>218071060>These shows are the reason we won't get WindsYou don't believe that and neither does anyone else. GRRM has no desire to finish it and would find other distractions to work on instead if these shows did not exist.
>>218070898this wasn't a skull fracture anon
>>218071181how is that any worse than replying to posts on a board like thisyou engage in worse behaviour, why call out anon for engaging in superior behaviour?>You drink piss! he says as he's eating shit
>>218070896based winter wolves. Still can't believe they didn't do anything with Cregan, Jace, and Sara Snow considering how much time they wasted last season on dumb shit
>>218071242There was nothing to do with them, cregan is only relevant to the end and the girl doesnt even matter
>>218071109He’s the only one that brought an appropriate weapon for easily killing people in full plate
>>218070651kek, she thinks if she gives birth to a proper looking Stark son Ned will finally stop loving Jon so much and throw his ass out>>218070731pic related is book cat based on descriptions. Poor Jon was getting bullied by this MILF his entire life
>>21807114090% of cersei's subtle seductions and hints would probably just sail right over dunk the lunk's head. a woman like cersei would just get frustrated trying to talk to him.
>>218071257>t. seething maester doubting based mushroomJace married Sara Snow, there are dragon eggs in the crypts of Winterfell. Cope and sneedand it's flat out stated that Cregan and jace got along so well they swore oaths of brotherhood. I'd rather get Cregan and Jace hanging out like bros than Allicent swimming and lesbian scenes
WHY DOES HOTD SEASON 2 SUCK SO FUCKING MUCH
>>218071350there's no way 3 can be worse. so that's that at least
>>218071356>>218070896
>>218070896>Nightmares at Harrenhal: Aegon beheads Otto??? i dont get this, is this a nightmare sequence or this will happen in the show? IIRC in the books Rhaenyra is the one who gave the order to behead Otto.
>>218071281>He’s the only one that brought an appropriate weapon for easily killing people in full plateNobody is supposed to die in the trial by seven
>>218071235It's the literal reason. HBO is the reason why we never will get the books finished. He was writing and didn't give a shit until the fat fucker started getting hollywood limelight treatment. Then it was dinner parties and goyawards. Fat fucking jew got a taste of finer things and lost the dog in him.
>>218070896Sounds like more armies moving, assembling but not fighting or advancing the plot at all
>>218071385Retard
>>218071388we'll see winds, but dreams will never come out.
>>218071411Show me where in the rules it says someone has to die
>>218071185Leprosy on steroids isnt std
>>218071420no we wont, george said a couple weeks ago he doesn't care about it anymore...
>>218071385I’m sure that’s why they used 8ft steel lances then
>>218071372Coles head. Okay we may get some kino scenes
>>218071432Its a 7x7 duel. Why wouldnt there be a casualty?
>>218071382>IIRC in the books Rhaenyra is the one who gave the order to behead Otto.Unless they teleport him from Honeyholt to King's Landing, that isn't happening. One of the few changes I support is keeping Otto alive.
Is Jace based or cringe?
>>218071457>Its a 7x7 duel. Why wouldnt there be a casualty?Gentleman agreement prior.
>>218071467Based.
>>218071467>Is Jace based or cringe?If he overthrew his mother and married Sara Snow, yes
>>218071382>is this a nightmare sequence or this will happen in the show?yes, more harrenhal spooky scoby doo stuff.
Remember blood moon?
Why arent there any female knights? Isnt that kinda sexist?
>>218071385>Nobody is supposed to die in the trial by sevenit's literally expected by everyone involved that someone is going to die, they thought they could control the situation from escalating and keep things between Aerion and Dunk but when two people get immediately domed and Maekar going sicko mode trying to save his son shit's gonna happen
Season 2 really gets worse and worse. Random Lady in the vale talking to Daemon’s daughter, KL sad to see a dead dragon even though it was killed by a bigger dragon, food on a raft, none of this goes anywhere
>>218071432if you kill your enemies, you win
>>218071543>Why arent there any female knights? Isnt that kinda sexist?Did you completely forget about Brienne?
>>218071550Season 1 got popular so they lowered the budget for season 2 and tried to stretch it out to support more seasons. They really want to milk it, HBO is lacking in long running series that are also popular among the masses.
>>218071552>if you kill your enemies, you winThese are not enemies, they are at a tourney. This entire thing is a spectral to increase bettings by gamblers in order to get more money for Ashford Meadow. Like Baelor could have just pardoned Dunk, he has power as hand.
>>218069888>>218069844Books that do this?The Heroes
>>218071554>>218071543I think Alysanne had one as a bodyguard after a stalker almost Epstein'd her in Maidenpool?
>>218071554Thats a very recent thing
>>218071578did you miss the part where it became a trial by combat, it stopped being a tournament the moment Dunk beat up Aerion
>>218071593Yeah I think if dunc got at least 2 female knights who can be the strategist they couldve won in a landslide.
Did they ever explain how wildings could fire arrows that pierce mail armor at the >600 feet tall wall?
>>218071295Holy fvckkkk mother stay by my side!!!
>>218071641A giant with a bow you retard
Sex with Helaena Targaryen and Gwin Ashford.
>>218071578>Like Baelor could have just pardoned Dunk, he has power as hand.politically this would be a terrible idea
>>218071684Chances that a commoner could impregnate them?
>>218070982>Although 99.99% of people in this universe couldn't do that, he had maesters with them and people with the maesters and could have prevented it.The maesters also have literal quasi-magical healing potion bullshittery. Altho stuff like that is kind of limited knowledge. If the Targshits brought their Grand Maester with them, they could have 100% saved his life IF, AND ONLY IF, he saw to Baelor's injury immediatly. If all they had was Lord Ashford's sheep fucking Maester, then he was probably dead either way. Baelor did not die because they removed his helmet. He died because he was not immediatly treated by the most skilled maesters
>>218071664The book explicitly states these were normal wildling men. But even if they were giants + bows the kinetic energy enters the realm of battle rifles, of which no bow is capable.
Rate them as military commanders (books):>Jon>Stannis>Tywin>Tyrion>Daenerys>Barristen>Rob>Jaime>Edmure>Brynden>Balon>Euron
>>218071684For me, it's Alicent, The Green Goddess of love and breeding
>>218071712He died because they poured boiling oil over a minor head injury.Dunk smashed his skull to cover up Steely Pete's idiocy and blamed Maekar. Else they all would've been hung.
>>218071708>>218071743Brothel Queens will be so kino brehs.Sex will return to GoT media.
Monkey kinda ugly

Does HOTD have the balls to film the Maiden's Day Loli Show?
>>218071872I doubt the show is going to cover that part of the book.
When does Tyland get pwnt in hotd?

I want to see Johanna Lannister kicking some ironborn rapist ass post dance of the dragons
>>218070349Decent for the realm but got obsessed with dragons and hatching them what in turn resulted in the disaster at summerhall where he got himself, his kingsguard, Dunk and his son killed.
Normal for some guy to tell some random hedge knight he hates the ruling dynasty in charge for no reason when they are parked literally within their castle and coming off a 10 year prior civil war where such talk could easily get you killed?
>>218071927can i just offer my life too to delete israel?
>>218072009the point of this period is that theres instabilityand he was drunk
>>218069844watch Akira Kurosawa
>>218071385The only other trial of seven we know about had 13/14 participants die, anon. Some would argue it's actually 14/14 and Maegor was revived via black magic afterwards.
>>218072009Just aving a laugh
>>218070982The book, why does she wear it?
>>218072009If Dunk got told on Raymun, Raymun can always deny he said it. Who would the authorities or someone who has a stick up their ass believe? A hedge knight or someone's who's actually from nobility?
>>218072055A lot of loyalty for a hired nun
>>218071927Ryan CondalSara HessEmma d'Arcy
>>218072009>when they are parked literally within their castlethey are at some flyover castle in the reach, not kings landing
>>218072009Why would Raymun say that to his friend who got condemned to a Trial of Seven by that same ruling dynasty after publicly assaulting one of them? Make it make sense!
Where's a recap of hotd S1 BC I Wanna watch S2
>>218072029>the point of this period is that theres instabilityIt makes zero sense in universe, same with the sorcerer riot at the tourney and people throwing shit at Arieon. That shit could easily lead to you losing a limb or possibly dead or exiled or having your lands stripped.I know this might come off as shocking to modern audiences, but commoners generally LOVED their kings and princes and shit. There is zero reason for them to be like this.
>>218072055>>218072065jej
>>218072009perhaps his openness is a signal to the audience that the Targs are losing their grip
>>218072009Westerosi basically have free speech laws so long as you don't insult Summer Islanders or the S*ven's Chosen Ones
>>218072079Raymun isn't a commoner. This is the equivalent of a Norfern English lord of Anglo-Saxon descent venting about those fucking Normans in the 1200s (a tension that most are familiar with from the Robin Hood stories)
>>218070982uh why is a septa balancing a book on her head?
>>218072104>Raymun isn't a commoner.You know what I mean, he's commoner by Great Houses standards
If Egg had succeeded in all his aims what would his endgame look like? Constitutional monarchy advised by a house of commons? Or would he have just been an absolutist who would have trusted his descendants to not just rewind all his reforms?
I don't want the show to continue how it is :(I want Dunk, Egg, Raymun and Steely Pate to all travel together as a fun group and get into all sorts of wacky adventures :(
>>218072141>Constitutional monarchy advised by a house of commons?would have been killed by the lords
So how many people who were alive at start of GOT alive now?We got>Bloodraven>Old Nan>Walter Frey>Maester AemonAnyone else?
>>218072141isn't his aim is to bring back dragons? Absolute dictatorship. Democracy and dragons don't mix.
>>218072169Quaithe apparently
>>218071927
>>218072141In every single transition from feudal power to republics/constitutional monarchy, there's been some sort of absolutist rule in between to break the old powers. There are theories this is what is going to happen to Westeros after the Long Night (hinting that advancement is on the horizon)Dragons would be Egg's equivalent of Louis XIV's cannon. Aegon I and his descendants (up until the end of dragons) not massively centralizing power and crushing the rights of hereditary nobles is honestly a huge plot hole.

Who had the most stacked Kingsguard?
/got/hotd/dunk/ is a Preston general, right? Or are we an altshiftx general?
>>218072476Ironically the mad king
>>218072143you will never see pate, raymun, maekar, lyonel again
Are you guys stoked for the inevitable arc where Egg teaches Dunk to read?
>>218072476The last targ had some of the finest warriors in the history of the kings guard only dunc coul improve his roster
>>218072494>you will never see pate, raymun, maekar, lyonel againWrong about Lyonel>>218072500>Are you guys stoked for the inevitable arc where Egg teaches Dunk to read?We already had the arc of Davos learning to read
>>218070524everyone in his posse wanted daemon to be king. Like imagine every lord you're with constantly telling you how much better you are than some nerd cuck who's marrying daughters of the dragon to d*rnish (which just killed your family btw). He already had the kickass sword, and a claim equally legitimate to the current king. In fact it's bullshit none of the great houses supported daemon. the fucking tyrells lost a gorillion men to dornish scorpions

>>218072009SEVEN HELLS! THAT FOSSOWAY CIDER IS THE STERNEST STUFF AROUND, BOY!
I don't think AKOTSK is bad like HOTD, but I am not too impressed either.The added scenes are all pretty bad, I didn't feel moved by any of the moving scenes from the novella (although that could be because I am I know these moments too well to be moved at this point), I think the tone is massively off, and the cinematography and editing is generally poor.I was surprised that the fight between Dunk and Aerion was actually good, minor gripes like the sword throw aside, but I don't have much else that is positive to say.
>>218072601calm your mind and rewatch the scenes until a song comes to you, the right one will make itself known
>>218070896>Daemon strangles a guy, but rather than kill him then decides to do the stupid Ramsay maneuver and arrow him to death>however this may or may not be the real Daemon (?)>Maybe-fake Daemon then sends the dead Gwayne to negotiate the surrender of TumbletonThis is actual gibberish, but sadly some of this shit I can see happening.

I always felt Trey was a midwit pretending to be intelligent, like all youtube video essay makers. Glad to see I was proven correct.
>>218072042>were you talking to your horse?>that's fuckin madhard not to love this dude
Whats Gwaynes deal again is he smart or is he a retard? >>218072647I don’t think its supposed to be moving i think its supposed to play a lot more like a comedy than its perceived here. Moving isn’t really Georges strong suit I don’t think playing it straighter would have landed.Flashback was gay though
>>218072193yeah, realistically it should have turned into the qing dynasty. Where every head of state is a dragon rider, and the rest are bureaucrats filtered through the former maester society
>>218069844Not sure if you're aware, but Rhaegar has eloped with Robert's betrothed, Lyanna Stark. It was personal, and they sought each other out. Would you want to be the soldier that stepped between Robert and Rhaegar? I know you're a le epic troll, but still.
>>218072743How many men could my boy rally? Also he could knight Duncan if he wasn't already
>>218072746How did she know?
>>218072745I don't know. I was genuinely moved by Baelor's death when I listened to Harry Lloyd read the novella. I didn't really feel anything here.
>>218072776someone post the thing I don't have it
>I'm your manFeels bad bros.
>>218072746Fucking virginity swapping sex with Ygritte!!?
>>218072754I could easily imagine Robert threatening to exile the man that kills Rhaegar before he gets the chance to do it himself out of pure Targaryen hatred
Dunk will irreverently lead to the Mad King and the White walker invasion with this actions at Ashford Meadow
>>218072810>WAAAAAAIT ROBERT I HAVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT THIS PROPHE-
>>218072770probably not very many, but i'll fight with the lad
Now that the Mad King stage play is finally going to be performed by the RSC, what reveals at the Harrenhall tourney do you expect? Rhaegar was a good guy the whole time? Lyanna was the knight of the laughing tree?
>>218072824>WAAAAAAIT ROBERT I'M GOING TO CALL A GREAT COUNCIL WE CAN STILL FIX THI-
>>218072647my favorite moment of the season so far was Ser Arlan going postal on those cops.
>>218072837Varys outsmarted him
>>218071281A bit rude.Why did he even bring the amour-neutralizing kinkiller 300 to what was supposed to be a series of friendly display fights?
>>218072831I’m sure it will all make the world a little less interesting
>>218071872>the goatPatricia Redwyne>must be protected at all costsHenrietta woodhull
>>218072831>Harrenhall tourneywhy do I get the feeling this will be butched like everything else in this franchise?
Rate them as military commanders (books):>Jon>Stannis>Tywin>Tyrion>Daenerys>Barristen>Rob>Jaime>Edmure>Brynden>Balon>Euro.
Aemond is kind of a shit regent isn’t he?
>>218072878>Aemond is kind of a shityeah
>>218072141Finishing what Maegor started and neutering the lords, but this time by using the smallfolk against them.
>>218072868No doubt George has already told the writers all the important lore though (Just like Dexter knows about Summerhall), so I expect it to be largely canon.
>>218072877i've never read the books.
>>218072877>JonPromising, but inexperienced. >StannisThe real deal, one of the top in Westeros>TywinNothing special, it's off battlefield where he shines>TyrionLikewise>DanyLeans heavily on her advisors, but does listen to them so some points to her>BarristanGreat knight, only a little so far on his command abilities but they seem good>RobbWesterosi Alexander the Great, likewise the real deal>JaimeOne trick pony who has to learn some more tricks the hard way>EdmureTactically okay, kind of indecisive>BryndenAnother real deal>BalonLiteral and actual retard>EuronDepends on how the Battle of Blood goes
>>218072844Brightflamesisters got the last laugh
>king maddened by demonic evil to burn people aliveIs the Mad King basically King Leoric?
>>218071993>resulted in the disaster at summerhall where he got himself, his kingsguard, Dunk and his son killed.>DunkWell, about that...
>>218072910As someone who read the first book and getting though the second book, I can confirm the books are superior to the show in every way.
>>218072877Tywin is african warlord tier.Robb is a good commander but loses points b because he gets carried by a magic dog and has trouble communicating with his subordinates.
Which moment or character got butchered the most from book to show s1-s4?
Thick, sticky ropes across Alicent’s feet
>>218072647I will also say that Aerion is portrayed more interestingly in the show compared to the novella where he is just a narcissistic brat and nothing else. In the show, there is a more calm energy to him, and I think he sincerely sees it as important to reinstill terror into the falling Targaryen dynasty.
>>218072945Yes but no. The dialogue and some scenes in the book are so much worse than the show. E.g. Ned using retarded words comparatively, the long-winded dialogue that the show makes flow so much better, and some scenes like Yoren getting the jump on the gold cloaks I COULD SHAVE A SPIDERS ARSE was much better than oh I have a sword to your neck
>>218072998How the hell would Clubfoot have even broached this idea the first time?
>>218072992>Which moment or character got butchered the most from book to show s1-s4?DependsWe got Catelyn Stark being turned into a stereotypical house wife begging Ned not to go to King's Landing, when in the books she depends he goes to figure out what is going on, they really gutted her politically. And they had Rob send 2,000 of his men to their deaths to capture Jaime Lannister, when in reality he had Roose Bolton organized a feigned retreat whey he captured him outside Riverrun.
>>218073002the problem with him being calm in the show is I don't really see him being crazy enough to drink wildfire or think he's a dragon in human formI like the portrayal otherwise though
>>218072992Most of it doesn’t really matter but the worst was probably Talisa just because of how fucking stupid the show version is.
>>218073025Yeah, and there is something to be said for just making a character unrepentantly evil in contrast to Dunk's goodness. Sometimes the more simplistic approach is better.
