>>218097476What happened? I only watched S1 and I thought it was okay besides blackwashing
A Lannister always pays his debts>>218097341
>>218097552TAOOBA!
ALL FUCKING BLACKS MUST FUCKING HANG
>>218097573they butchered all the characters and turned into fantasy bridgerton
All hail prince valarr, the new he->dies of covid-ACK
>>218097552Seriously though, why did Aegon get so much flak for hanging a few rat catchers and that old bitch gets a free pass for killing like 100 peasants by blowing up the church floor? or Rhaenyra finding everyone in the city with white hair and locking them in a dungeon full of dragons?
No more hotdoodoo fucking shit
Cute and canon!
>even fucking Reddit and Twitter turned on HotDFucking lmao. How does anyone shit the bed that hard?
>>218097750Because picrel is the writer.
post yfw its monday and all there is to look forward to is HOTD
>>218097750the smallfolk loved haelena so they wouldn't have cared as much about the rat catchers but show treats it like some joffery manic episode
>>218097804
I skipped HOTD because it looked like slop but I'm actually really enjoying the dunk and egg show
>>218097582butterflies bro
>>218097625To be fair, Baelon had too much Martell blood on him, which is probably why Bloodraven orchestrated his death, if the future targs descended from him, they wouldn't be able to hatch dragon eggs when the time came, and wouldn't be able to use dragons against the Others.
>>218097803>hire tumblrina>get tumblr the showno wonder warner bro is being sold off. the execs are full of retards hiring these showrunners
The Dunk/hotd situation is like when someone from America tries German or Czech beer for the first time and then they try to drink American beer again afterwards.
>>218097803RYON!
>>218097750
>>218097860>put niggers everywhere in the show>cut out the only decent black character from the bookswhat did condom and hiss mean by this?
>>218097868honestly the seeds of doubt are already sown in dunk. the pooping and shitting is indicative of terminal redditor syndrome.
>>218097750>Rhaenyra finding everyone in the city with white hair and locking them in a dungeon full of dragons?Well did it work?
>>218097861Dragons didn't do shit against the others in the finale, they're a red herring.
>>218097889Sorry bro but smallfolk don't matter, they're subhuman proles. Only TargARYANS matter but we need to be diverse so everyone is gay, black or trans.
>>218097934Not canon
>>218097804catspaw dagger watch
>>218097951>nothing beats a good story>and who here has a better story than Bran the brokenBRAVO GEORGE, FUCKING BRAVO YOU FAT HACK
>>218097972Didn't George hate the show ending? I distinctly remember him saying they could've gone for another 13 seasons or something in an interview shortly after the finale.

Her children are....
>>218098006This black guy was based as fuck. Almost makes me forgive him for being black.
>>218098006BASTA-ACK!
>>218098006...Strong boys.
>>218097995No, he's never spoken ill of them. They likely just half-assed his story beats and cut a lot of story so the end-result wasn't that good. But it's all but confirmed Bran is the three eyed crow, time travels and becomes the omnipotent God king.
>>218098006He's gonna say it.
>>218098025Daemon dressing up as his Nephew for some Metal Gear Solid shenanigans was fucking hilarious
>>218098006STRONG
>>218097804m-m-m-maybe season 3 will be good
I wish AGOT hadn't gone to shit after S4I wish HOTD didn't go to shit after S1...is a rewrite...possible...?
>>218098030>becomes the omnipotent God king.I'm not sure about that part; I can't see a northern cripple with autism and sorcerous powers being accepted by the nobles of southern regions as their king; it just feel so "out of nowhere"
>>218098006One of the best scenes of the first season desu. I honestly can't believe the amount of normies that thought giving all of the Velaryon lands and titles to one of Rhaenyra's STRONG BOYS was a good move on Viserys part.
>>218098120They're doing a reboot series of the main books after the spinoffs and it'll be called A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE and it's going to be 10000% book accurate TRVST THV PLVN
>>218098030He never spoke ill of the ending because it would give too much away on what he's planning himself. But he has stated outright he wasn't pleased about it's unfaithfulness.
>>218098152They don't know that tho they just know he is Brann Stark.
Uuh... did Dunk and the old man... you know...
>>218098120If George ever finishes the books(he won't), the show is almost guaranteed to get remade in like 20-30 years.
>>218098159Blackfags can't get over the fact that Vissy T spoiled Rhaneyra rotten.
>>218098187>20-30 years.I will be 56...
>>218097889I think Condom didn't feel like he could pat himself on the pack for Nettles in terms of diversity, which is why he made the Velaryons black.He wants credit for diversity.
>my fins feel like wood
>>218098120I wish none of this had happened
>>218097804Let's go!MUH QWEEN!!
>>218098202>FOR MY WIFE'S SON!
Where is Gwayne Hightwoer? is he safe? is he...alright?
>>218098006BLASTERS
>>218098120>...is a rewrite...possible...?If it is it won't be one worth watching >Studio execs: we're not redoing the ending to GoT chuds, it was perfect & you're just angry because you hate women>Also studio execs: SIX GORILLION REMAKES OF BELOVED FILMS AND FRANCHISES WITH ALL NIGGERS AS THE MAIN CHARACTERS COMING UP
>>218098188he was a girl dad. it was over before it started
>>218098006WHITE!
>>218098069honestly based nigga. he wasn't afraid to speak truth to power.
>>218098152Part of the reason why GRRM is struggling to finish his books is that he wrote a story that was fundamentally about how cynical everyone was and the concept of "chivalry and honor" were just memes people put up for the sake of it that somehow has to reach a conclusion where a crippled boy becomes king because he has powers and he symbolically rewrites the continent's founding myth (hence him having "the best story")It's a romantic ending to a cynical story, and show demonstrated to Martin people hated that shit.
>>218098202Holy shit look at how rallied those rivermen are
>>218097889>only decent black characterWhy? She doesn't even do anything (tbf this can be applied to most characters in the Dance).
So how long before Martin turns on Ira Parker and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms because S2 cut out one of Rohanne's dead husbands?
>>218098409Martin didnt turn on anyone, he defeneded d&d and royan turned on him.
>>218098320
>>218098006he got the final laugh. all her bastards died like bitches
>>218098423And his brothers bastard ended up on the driftwood throne anyway.
>>218098172Is arlan hung like a horse in the books aswell or is this a show original?
>>218098423I'm sure he was laughing when his family was destroyed and the bastard of Carl got the lordship of driftwood.
>>218098421He actually said in the Oxford meetup that he would publicly criticize late GOT if it didn't spoil his books. I love the audacity of him implying he would complain about how they adapted a story he hasn't even finished or written yet.
>>218098465isn't gurm on record for hating people writing fanfics of his setting for it being lazy, despite having both not finished his own story and not published the next book in 15 years?
>>218098331>he symbolically rewrites the continent's founding mythin what way ?
If Lyonel is the Laughing Storm, is Stannis the Balding Storm?
>>218098170they don't know about his powers (though Robb was rumored to be a warg) but in their eyes he's still a crippled tree worshipper who is weirdly aloof and cannot sire heirs
>>218098527The Seething Storm
>>218098510The Old Gods are just time travelling Bloodraven/Bran
>>218098422It makes so much sense in the show for Viserys to decline the marriage offerBut someone post the Dany image. Someone seriously rejected taht?
>>218098530We don't know if he can fuck tho, many cripple people can still get hard and cum.
>>218098510The idea is that Bran marks a transition from Aegon's Conquest of war and violence to peace and rebuilding after the devastating back-to-back conflicts in the main series, a broken king for a broken kingdom.Basically Bran is the fisher king.
>>218098102Can't be worse than season 2>somehow is worse than season 2
>>218098102>>218098628I'm sure the leaks are real, hotd is super dead.
>>218098569The book ending will be bittersweet and parts of society become more egalitarian. Women can study at the citadel, maybe become knights(?) and the king is elected or a parliament forms.
>>218098120>after S4lol, lmao even> after S1oh you're retarded, my bad
>>218098659>king is elected or a parliament forms.What is wrong with Absolute Monarchy
>>218098421He turned on his fans by not finishing the books
>>218098637We all got hotted
>>218098668I think GRRM confused elective monarchy with a kind of democracy simply because it has the word "elective" in it.
>>218098659>The book ending will behahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
>>218097804Wait was that the last episode of dunk and egg for the season?
>>218098527The Burning Storm
>>218098708THis Sunday is the last episode
>>218098668George is a fucking baby boomer hippie who was very likely a swinger in his younger days. He's super-liberal.
>>218098465That’s probably why he hasn’t gone off dnd like he did condal because even though he probably wants to he’d look like a hypocrite. Still that hasn’t stopped him from biting his tongue completely as he has called some of their decisions nonsensical like Littlefinger giving Sansa to Ramsay.
>>218098637My main doubt for that outline posted here is that it said Aemond was in episode four, even though Steve Touissant himself accidentally posted the character sheet for that episode in Instagram, and Aemond is not listed among the cast.It also doesn't take into account that there's supposed to be an experimental standalone character-driven episode according to one of the show directors (possibly an Otto ep as there were casting calls for a young Alicent and Gwayne).
>>218098784>and Aemond is not listed among the cast.That was probably a mistake, there is no way Aemond is not part of so many episodes also maybe they scrapped that episode.
>>218098665>being this much of a pleb
>>218098784>>218098807I forgot to say the leaks we got are the story spine so not everything is listed there.
>>218097804I refuse to watch that shit. I am lurking the treads for the memes but hotd is Netflix's Witcher levels of unsalvageable
>>218098814HotD was never good and GoT went bad around season 3
>>218098637>>218098784What leaks/outline were shown? The one that was made in Word and has 4 pages?
>>218098875Follow this >>218081528 it could be fake but at the end of the day we also got the story spine of s2 and we said there is no way this shit is real.
>>218098023Kek someone updated it. I saved a version of him with a burger king crown lel. Did anyone save that anons voice over
Prestons AKOTSK videos have been really bad.
Has Dunk ever won a single tournament fight?
>>218098924I like the dagger watch bit
>>218098904the kiss is what throws it into question, but then rhaenyra & mysariai'm going nuts thinking about it
>>218098807>>218098825This was from the script reading just before they started filming
>>218098940no but he never shamed himself either
>>218098829>but hotd is Netflix's Witcher levels of unsalvageableOh come the fuck on that's simply not true
>>218098940Not in the stories? He doesn't get to compete at Ashford and then gets knocked out on the first list at Whitewalls. Were there tournaments we don't see? Then again we're still very early in his knightly career (books 4+ never) and I suppose jousting wouldn't be his forte
>>218098904ah yes im the one who uploaded it like 22 hours ago. So is it consistent with other sources? at first I think its bull because someone took the time to make it in Word, I'd write it in Notepad cgaf
>>218098980it is nigga. entirety of the internet is clowning on the new trailer. it's so fucking over
All I wanted was one scene where Helaena was being nice with the smallfolk so I can KIND OF SEE them being sad she died. Instead they attack her and we get scenes of her doing nothing but interacting with daemon. Lol
We prefer K7K to AKOTSK, right /tv/?
>>218098940>>218098977wow he's just like me
>>218097804Correction.It's monday morning and there's nothing to look forward to because why the fuck would you even watch the rancid diarrhea that is HotD?
>>218098904
>>218098955sex with alys
>>218098955That's a single episode, episode 4Also AEGON'S RULE OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED (AGAIN)
HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU SPREAD THE SECOND BOOK ACROSS 6 EPISODES, ONLY THREE THINGS HAPPEN IN THAT STORY
>>218099003>why the fuck would you even watch the rancid diarrhea that is HotD?to shitpost alongside you spastics here
>>218098991Aegon's show character has more to him that the entirety of every character in the witcher novels combined, let alone the fucking show
>>218099018Rohanne diarrhea scene
>>218099007The perfect cliffhanger for season 3 would have been Rhaenyra getting up from the Iron Throne bleeding and a trail of blood behind her as she walks away.
>>218099014
>>218099018Filler training arc
>>218098955if aegon ii is that low, aemond could be lower
>>218098120They should make an animated series instead
>>218098996Kot7K masterrace
Just saw the trailer for HotD>Alicent offering to open the gates for RhaenyraChrist they really did ruin this show
>>218098996It's Duncan Egg
>>218099028Why would a menstruation scene be a cliffhanger?
>>218099044doesn't that literally happen in the "book"
>>218099044not just that she said she's okay with letting her sons be killed.
>>218099018Dunk/Arlan flashbacks, Egg bathing, dancing, cooking venison, Rohanne/Eustace flashbacks about his son and Rohanne, Rohanne flashbacks about her 4 husbands, etc.
>>218098996yes. I've already spread it to my normies

>>218098955>He/Him
>>218097552game of thrones shows are for amerimutts and degeneratesit's slop for midwits
>>218099068actors are woke gayboys, what's new
>>218099053pretty sure she's lying to Rhaenyra there, as she is also shown arguing to Aegon that they have to retreat now to avoid getting fucked over by the greater dragon numbers.
Do you think those behind HOTD are seething a the kino that is Dunk's show?
>>218099081100%
>>218099050Sort of, there is a traitor but it's attributed to Orwyle who allows the Blacks in.
>>218098659>Women can study at the citadel, maybe become knightsWas Brienne not knighted in the books too? I mean, I know it was under Lord Fagstag, and she's just big enough that she can stand toe to toe with other knights, but I feel like we've already set the precedent
>>218099077no this was enforced by the showrunners because a youtube tranny is on the cast
>>218099050That’s different. She did it because she had no choice. No Aegon. No Aemond. No Cole. In the show it’s “I’ll let you kill my son lol,” vs “shit I have no options right now, I’ll let her take the city until my sons return”.
can't wait for the best served kino movie (best served cold)
>>218099081absolutely. these people are very petty and insecure.
IF I haven't read F&B is S2 still shit
>>218099081Probably judging it for not cleaving to their ideas and agenda while feeling that audiences are somehow incorrect for enjoying it.
>>218099091Oh the breadtube glowy paid by MI5
>>218099111The main problem with S2 is the pacing, too much meandering before the big setpiece (which doesn't even happen because their episodes got cut). F&B is still shit though

No Dragonpit scene this season?
>Alright boys, HBO has managed to get George to sign off on an original 100 years post GoT series by offering him a lifetime supply of Little Debbie products and residency in the Playboy Mansion. What do you have for us?
>>218099132>F&B is still shit thoughit's alright
>>218098987You uploaded it but you don't know where it's from?
>>218099111if you only watch episodes 1 2 4 and 7 its fine
>>218099111If you have a functioning brain and watched season 1 then you would know to steer clear of anything related to that garbage fire.

K7K = AryanHOTD = ???
>>218099149Jaehaerys is the best part but Aegon and Aenys/Maegar are really flat. Prelude to the Dance is solid but the Dance itself is a clusterfuck and not in a good way. I did like Aegon 3's regency.

Its funny to me so much of the drama in Season 3 is going to turn on Rhaenyra not having any money but refusing to raise taxes apparently thinking the issue will resolve itself.
What if the reason why he doesn't finish WoW is because his ghost writer died long ago?
>>218099259WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE ME DO, ANON?
>>218099259In ASOIAF, raising taxes always causes problems for rulers. Jaehaerys lost Rego Draz, the Targaryens literally lost their dragons, Cersei and Joffrey nearly died in a riot. As Kevan says, taxation is tyranny
>>218099279Didn't realise Kevan was a spokesman for the Tea party
>>218099279Based Kevan
>>218099259anon the books literally have a subplot about Jon taking out a loan on the promise that Stannis will win the crown, despite that being completely implausible and the NW having effectively zero collateral.
>>218099279Yeah but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to pay the goldcloaks and you know there’s going to be a scene where her council says they need to raise money to keep the government going and Rhaenyra will scream about protecting the smallfolk without offering any alternative
>>218099319The Iron Bank is going to own the wall confirmed.
>>218099279How are you supposed to fix your monetary problems then? Just borrow from the bank across the sea?
>>218099259what's wrong with moneyprinter go brrrr?

>>218099346Yes that's what they constantly do anyway (Barth funded construction of KL infrastructure by borrowing from multiple foreign banks at the same time and pitting them against each other to gather favorable terms).
>>218099334>Iron Bank gets wall for non-payment of loan>just in time for it to be destroyed by dragons and zombiesGRRM is either a master satirist or a retard who thinks he's written a plot point about Jon being a financial genius.
>>218099346Lower taxes mean less income now but more income in the future as the economy grows fasterIt's a low time preference policy
>>218099361not in the show it doesn't.

>>218097804I'm okay with thisKot7K is overrated shit
>>218099014Implies that the Greens only arrive in Harrenhal at the end, if Aemond isn't in the episode. Does fuck with the structure the plot leak doc provided if the Strong purge only happens in ep 5.

>>218099324Rhaenyra primarily used the smallfolk as a means to an end in S2 (rioting in KL and the dragonseeds), it was Mysaria who advocated saving the smallfolk.
>>218097804mfw
Cannibal is a non-Valyrian Dragon. He's just a naturally occurring monster with no inbreeding or DNA slicing. He actually hates Targgers and is waiting for Dany to arrive on Dragonstone, where he is in hiding, he will ambush her Dragons and kill one.
>>218099599Both were doing a means to an end thing, it's just that the showrunners were too stupid to realize it and framed it as a good thing
>>218097804Climax of the Knight season/story already happened and now its just an epilogue episode.
>>218098869And what has ser Criston posted?
>>218099621Sowing of the seeds wasn't really good though, even the writers called it a deliberate ritual sacrifice.
>>218099621actually they're trying to make it that Rhaenyra believes her decisions to be moral but has character flaws. you're just too distracted by the woke/anti-woke debate to recognize subtext whenever its a woman being characterized.
I miss when HotD used to be good. I miss when she was still around. I miss those simpler times so fucking much...
Next ep is adding new source material to own the chuds
>>218099111Absolutely.F&B is a narrator picking through three different accounts of how the Dance went down. A Septon(biased against the targs), a Maester(neutral), and a midget jester(schizoposting). By the end you realize everything the jester said was true.
>>218099650He posted a dying Stannis. Brilliant.
>>218099018Beach episode in Dorne, party episode in Oldtown with Aemon.
>tfw you'll never get to be Alicent's pussy eating slave
>>218099693Gods help us all.
>>218099682>by the end you realize that GRRM just hacked out a history and used multiple narrators as a way to justify shoving in whatever contradictory events he wantedit's great for him because this way HBO has to take responsibility for doing the hard work.
>>218099154Like...should I?
>>218099741He did the same thing for GOT and reaped hundreds of millions of dollars for it
>>218099081Seething harder than bittersteel when shiera didn't pick him.
>>218099728
>>218099750stop playing dumb you fucking cunthe actually finished 5 books of ASoiaF while F&B is a set of cliffnotes where he could just switch to the dwarf jester whenever he wanted to write porn. it's amazing HotD was as good as it was considering how little work he did.
>>218099767what was the point of this scene? no maid is going to complain about geting breed by a royal
>>218099799He didn't finish ASOIAF though, GOT had to do it for him
>>218099319Don't see why the Night's Watch doesn't harvest ice from the wall and sell it raise funds. The thing is already a thousand miles tall.
>>218099057Battle of the Redgrass field flashback, as told by sir Eustace.
>>218099358Dreamfyre seems abit high.
>>218099746yeah, most of the HOTD BAD screeching is some kind of dumb negative marketing strat aimed at getting people to watch Kot7K. there is a clear division in season 2 between the episodes that work and the flat, lifeless episodes that bridge them together. plus HBO forced them to drop another two episodes to save money so episode 8 is a disappointing wrapup.
>>218099801and no queen is going to bother listening to some bitch peasant talking about muh rape.
>>218099181>must you mock me
>>218099675Kisses.Sex.Kisses and sex.Kisses and sex from Monke.
>>218099808The Night's Watch literally does not make sense as an organization. You're basically giving all these criminals access to weapons and even ships, without pay, and at no point do they just get up and leave. There are literally rapists in their ranks and at no point is Jon sexually assaulted, they just bully him like they're in middle school.
>>218098152>southern lord doesnt accept branbot rule, gathers his leige lords and starts planning a rebellion>midway through the maester comes in>my lord, a raven arrived from king's landing...this morning, with instructions to give you the message at this time precisely>its the lord's entire conversation up to that pointA handful of instances like that and no one would have the balls to do anything to him.
>>218099675>>218099847wow the targ hair really doesn't suit her. looks like a fucking retard with it
So the next DnE story will be Sworn Sword? Wouldn't it be the most boring of the 3? Some 2 nobodies fighting over water and maybe Dunk getting some tongue?
>>218099806yes and HotD is having to finish the story of the Dance of Dragons for him.
>>218099801Poisoning the well against Aegon and the Greens for the audience before the Dance kicks off in earnest.
>>218099741>GRRM just hacked out a historyGeorge has made it no secret that hes just adapting English history and making bank off of it
>>218099872Tbh without a good actor for Baelor season 1 would've been boring too.And without a good bloodraven actor season 3 will be boring.
>>218099617Based Cannibal, kill those flying golems.
>>218099018Bet your ass 1st episode is them delivering the wine casks to some lord.
>>218099848There's an initial training period before they actually take the black, and the entire travel time to the wall as well, so while we dont actually see it happen Im sure a shitload of criminals who just tried it as an out but have no actual intention of joining either fuck off/escape on the way or end up getting their heads lopped off by the lord commander.
>>218099007Tbh this isn't really bad in terms of trying to rework the Dance into a coherent narrative. It's definitely an improvement over S2 because the characters are doing things and stuff is happening.The biggest issue is that Rhaenyra absolutely gets fucked as a character (her own council basically enforcing their own laws and her not being able to do anything about it is very funny), and I guess it kills any chances of an Aegon III spinoff miniseries, if that was ever a thing.
>>218099801>>218099834Aegon being a rapist is in F&B too, though, so someone must have talked to someone about it at some point.
>>218099928>Tbh this isn't really bad in terms of trying to rework the Dance into a coherent narrative.
>>218099928>characters are doing things and stuff is happening.yeah it's not like that was apparently a requirement for Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms. personally I thought HotD season 2 had more good TV over 8 episodes than Kot7K over 6 by I'm not in the definitely-organic majority here.
>>218099872Maybe they'll throw in Dunk and Egg fucking around in Dorne for the first couple of eps to start the season strong then end on the boring Osgrey stuff.
>>218099767Why is some valyrian girl from Lys their maid to begin with?
>>218099928Eddard Stark does more retarded shit in GoT season 1 but people don't hold him responsible for it because muh honour.
>>218099982There are targ bastards everywhere and have been for decades at that point, she's probably a 3rd of 4th cousin
>>218099927There’s also the fact that for a lot of the poor petty criminals, the NW is an improvement. They get a community, work, potential promotions, a place to live in, and guaranteed three meals a day, which is far more than they would’ve gotten in the their old life. Once you get through the initial training, it’s a pretty decent place for a poorfag with no money or future.
>>218099982Bro, everyone in Essos is black, Iberian or white American trans.
>>218099982>random blond girl>must be from Lys But why? Blond hair isn’t exactly uncommon.
>>218100040*in their old life
>>218099982>>218100036
>>218100040except it's freezing year-round and food is no guarantee, and you have to go north of the wall at some point where you'll get raped, killed and eaten by wildlings. And not necessarily in that order either.
>>218099864The tards are supposed to look weird anon
>>218099989Ned was a retard because a muh honor classical character can'tsurvive in the cynical world of ASOIAF. Then there's being retarded and incompetent for the sake of it.Would you trust a queen that does literally nothing and when asked to make a hard decission and, you know, actually rule, replies with "what would you have me do"? Truly a woman wrote that character, no doubt.
>>218099864>wow the targ hair really doesn't suit her.What would you have her do?
>>218100077Yes it is, most of the people in KL that have platinum hair are directly descended from Lyseni including Gaemon Palehair here >>218100107It was rare enough that the few examples of it could pass as secret Targs.
>>218100077>random blonde girlIt has to be pale blond with light eyes, not just any random blonde girl. But yeah, that one doesn't scream valyrian/lysene to me.
>>218100117That's the rangers, if you get kitchen duties you can live reasonably comfy.
>>218100178Wasn't it Viserys and Aegon who kept saying the "what would you have me do" line?
>>218100178>a muh honor classical character can't survive in the cynical world of ASOIAFexcept Dunc, who can because the sociology of the setting changes to accomodate him.
>>218099801>>218099834impressive autism, it's extremely bad pr if members of the royal family are just openly raping the maids
lmao Dunk lost it's 9.9 rating, breaking bad fans really care about imdb shit
Raymun lusting after Dunk's big cock will ruin their dynamic. It goes from a beautiful quick forming male friendship, and reflecting really well on Raymun, to just Raymun being a cockslut fighting to get some. Which is gross and creepy.
>>218100191Do you think Aegon III and Gaemon kissed each other?
>>218100219>openly>in their bedchamber in the middle of the night while drunkit's supposed to be character development of Alicent that she wants him to not do it. the problem is that she looks like a crappy mother anyway because the timeskip and Viserys being sympathetically depicted means we have no one else to blame for Aegon being shitty.
>>218100256how is it creepy to fight for the man you love
>>218099847She looks like such a cock goblin
>>218100280It implies the fight was transactional, it's like Epstein-coded Ron Con is in the books.
>>218099968There's more connective issue at least, which was my main issue with the Dance of the Dragons. Most of the events were too random, which works in the context of a faux-history book but not as a real story.
>>218099238>doesn't write volume 2>years from now AKotSK makes its version of Summerhall based on his notes and feedback>viewers hate it>he uses that as an excuse to keep not writing volume 2Sounds familiar.
Stop raping, ser
>>218100312>It implies the fight was transactionalno it doesn't, that's a damning confession that you think that way anon
>>218100321
>>218100272They were just sharing playtime with Daenaera
>>218098439The books are actually free of GRRM's usual explicit sex scenes. We never see Arlan except in confusing dream sequence by Dunk.Basically everything you saw with Arlan alive is show original.
>>218100330You don't understand the bond between men, likely because of your own feelings towards men, so there's no point in trying to talk to you.
>>218099617I think he's on Skagos possibly with greyscale.I think Bran is going to skinchange into him to save Jon since that's much closer than Dragonstone, and already practically beyond the wall, and that's the dragon that dies and gets wight'd.He's probably enormous by now too if he's still alive unless greyscale stops him from growing.This relies on Bran being strong enough of a skinchanger to actually cross the wall, or it already being destroyed when it happens.
>>218099358The Last Dragon had no chance, the Dragonbane worked with maesters to poison him.
>>218100330>>218100357nobles fighting for a commoner only makes sense if there is minimal chance of them dying, but GRRM cocked that up because he wanted a bodycount so who cares about any other ridiculous flaws.
>>218100221Which makes me glab that in turn their show got reviewbombed as well.Envious cocksuckers.
>>218100354>The books are actually free of GRRM's usual explicit sex sceneliterally only because Dunc doesn't get any and Egg is 12. Dunc has a sexual fantasy though.
I am deeply mistrustful of good things, so I assume the last episode is going to suck and will pull down the whole season.
>>218100315>>years from now AKotSK makes its version of Summerhalllol never happening
>>218100443the series sucked from the first episode because they spread the material out too much.
>>218100441>and Egg is 12."Shame Martin isn't Stephen King"
>>218100386>He's probably enormous by nowNot necessarily, the inbred Alien dragons might have been bred / spliced specifically to grow so large. We know Wyverns in the story (as the Dragons in ASOIAF are also Wyverns, this just means non-Fire Breathing dragon) actually don't grow as large as Dragons. It's actually entirely possible that the Cannibal isn't even a Dragon, but a Wyvern, and can't even breath fire.
>>218100420the war between dunk and walter
>>218099828Is it ever implied how big Urrax was supposed to be?
>>218099007>Philosophytroon ACK'D in the first episodeOh thank go->full gas on cannon RhaenicentI hate dykes and yuriniggers so much it's unreal>ending cut off again, not even Storming of the DragonpitThe only reason I'm still bothering with this glorified AO3 fanfic is to witness total Targnigger rape and they still won't give it to me.
>>218098668It's not practical for a society that has been stuck in feudalism for millennia. Not even the Targs with dragons were able to consolidate enough power to rule as absolute kings, they still had to delegate authority over most of the Seven Kingdoms to vassal houses, who in turn delegated most of their nominal realms to their vassals. The issue is a lack of real bureaucracy, outside a few large cities it's nothing but castle towns and manor estates where frequently the only literate person for miles is the maester stationed at the most important lord's seat.Can't really have centralized absolute rule without a LOT of bureaucracy.
>>218100551>Not even the Targs with dragons were able to consolidate enough power to rule as absolute kings, they still had to delegate authority over most of the Seven Kingdoms to vassal houses, who in turn delegated most of their nominal realms to their vassalsThat's because Aegon simply chose not to, he absolutely had the power to reform Westeros into a more centralized government like Ancient Rome or China but he deliberately kept everything the same save for him at the very top.
>>218100549cancellation soon
>And now you see me as I truly am>Dreadful in vengeance>righteous >AND GLORIOUS>sunfyre drops inThe only thing I want to see
>>218100549Dragonpit was likely always going to be in the final season. I do think S3 was supposed to end with the God's Eye before S2's finale cutdown.
>>218100485I could see it. That'd solve the contradiction of a wight able to breathe fire.I bet greyscale makes him immune to it as well so they are turbofucked and have to stab him with dragonglass except it's brittle as fuck
>>218100642STRIKE ME DOWN AND THE STRANGER HIMSELF WILL TAKE RETRIBUTIONTHE WARRIOR'S SWORD WILL BE JUDGMENT UPON YOU
>>218100642https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FuGgJS3Uv7w
>>218100573He had the potential to monopolize violence but it's pretty much impossible for Aegon I to have actually ruled absolutely in his own lifetime. He could've started the process of it, had he a mind to, but he likely simply did not have the vision for it because his own cultural background was also highly decentralized power structures.The only way I could see Aegon starting the process of centralization would be to franchise the Citadel, basically to build a new Citadel in every major seat in the Seven Kingdoms: one in Kingslanding, one in Casterly Rock, one in Vale, one in Winterfell or more practically, at White Harbor, which is the largest true city in the North, eventually one in Sunspear as well, and maybe one down in Storm's End and a duplicate in Highgarden. The Reach is so populous they could probably support 3 or 4 citadels on their own. The reason for this is they'd need an army of Maesters to staff the bureaucracy that would govern at the king's command.
BAKE THE DAMNED THREAD BEFORE I PISS MYSELF!
which of the low born riders will defect?the husband and the drunkard? face vhagar and surrender to aemond?
>>218100780Hugh Hammer and Ulf White yeah. The rest remain loyal.
Just watched a Tragshit apologist video and now I feel ill.
>>218100780Yes but they are giving them legit reasons to defect for some reason.
bye strong anons
>>218100715who's voice said sunfyre
i just realized there has been a hotd fag hating on Dunk in here since episode 1
>>218100853its a leak from filming. Its the scene coordinator
we need a show on Rob's rebellionI want to see that hammer crushing the chestplate
>>218100882That's an easy win they refuse to take.
>>218100882They'll cast an FTM tranny to play Robert. A black FTM tranny.
>>218100882>Rob's rebellionworst fucking idea ever. blackfyre or conquest instead
>>218100908how high are you
>>218100715God I need it so badI NEED IT SO BAD
>>218100920also fucking terrible ideas
>>218100924As high as honor
>>218100988Baelor Auraspear
is anyone bothered at all by the lack of realism? you cannot stap through chainmail with a sword or knife. its simply not possible
>>218100451Never say never.
>>218100988MORE WINE, NOT OIL
>>218101008You absolutely can. Mail protects against slashing, not stabbing.
>>218099828Between Vaghar, Sunfyre and Tessarion they could btfo Caraxes easily if they just decided to hunt down Daemon's ass and end the war. God bless fatman for his shitty writing.
>>218101034Then what would they do against Vermithor, Silverwing, Seasmoke and Syrax?
>>218100988can someone edit his visor back on for this image
>>218101034Yeah they should've used the GoT season 8 teleporters, and disabled the GoT Season 8 teleporters for Daemon.
>>218101008noone cares
>>218101070Syrax is a shitter and Vermithor defected anyways.
>>218101033yeah, im sure you can stab at more than 300 mphhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWuqfCsXg00
>>218100947>My leal lords will find me>If they search the seven hells, mayhaps
>>218101008>is anyone bothered at all by the lack of realism?the episode had some of the most accurate midieval fighting in a film probably ever, mail will not prevent stabs, at best it will prevent deep stabs and move with the blade inward to hopefull prevent organ punctures, chainmail is good, not great
>>218101008Not true
>>218101154>implying Dunk wore the world's thickest chainmailHe wore some cheap rag that barely functioned. Moreover, Aerion's weapons seemed thin and long with sharp tips, that can absolutely punch right through mail.
>>218097861Nigga Makear had his exact same genetics and Egg breed with a Blackwood albino ape. It was until Egg's son that the family returned to their old sister-fucking ways
>>218101154
>>218101008you can stab through mail, just won't penetrate too deep, it saves your life but it will still hurt
>>218101176I think if you get smashed in the face twice in rapid succession with a mace you're fucked
>>218101198>Aerion's weapons seemed thinbe basically brought a proto-rapier
>>218101199>Nigga Makear had his exact same geneticsi don't think you understand genetics
Meds. Now.
>>218101205probably but the helmet did it's job
>>218097861>Baelon had too much Martell blood on himNo wonder he had so much honor
>>218098869Dunno why this scene always make me laugh like and idiot. Something about Cole's pose just kills me
>>218098940Hes a bad jouster. Much better at wrecking shit on foot like Big Bobby or the Cleganes
>>218101278>wtf is this lizard riding inbred retard saying
>>218101205that and the lance were really the only fatal wounds dunk took but apparently the chainmail was pushed deep into Duncan with the lance splinter, which would stop organs from being stabbed
>>218098940no but he never really lost a duel, at the end of the day jousting is mehBobby BDaemon BJaime LannisterBarristan SelmyArthur Dayneall lost jousts before
>>218101033>>218101176>>218101177>>218101204wrong, https://youtu.be/wNbXhCFlnwo?t=361
>>218098996it's dunk and egg or just dunk
>>218099018They can extended the Old Town stuff, and dedicate a large flashback to Redgrass. Maybe even some OC flashback of Eustace and the other Swordfags rebels simping over Daemon-Griffith
>>218101350>medieval armor makes you invincible>knights died wearing itexplain?!
>>218101350they literally admit that with force the dagger will punch through the rings lol, also dunk was wearing cheap mail
>>218099081100% they launched the HOTD promotional campaign earlier in retaliation to chuds loving AKOTSV.
>>218101350We've already shown you evidence of mail getting stabbed through.It doesn't matter if you show a video of someone else failing to do, what we've shown is possible.>show someone running 100 yards>"well this other guy can only run 20 yards"Dumbass
>>218101278Yeah just the way the camera focuses on him when Aegon brings up the identical twin prank in front of auto it just tells you he’d really rather not be in that room just then
>>218099018unironically dedicate a chunk of the show to Daemon, Baelor, Maekar, Brynden, and Bittersteel
>>218099762bittersneed haha
>>218099090She can easily maul normal men and her father is among the most powerfull nobles of the Stormlands that lobbied to have her accepted as a warrior. Shes pretty much a very special case
>>218101409and in the video he linked the two guys say with enough force you could penetrate mail
>>218101363always makes me laugh how the Starks just don't get involved in any of the blackfyre rebellion faggotry>get letter saying targs are killing each other again, demand I bring my armies South>throw letter in the firenot my problem
>>218101344>Bobby B>Daemon B>Jaime Lannister>Barristan Selmy>Arthur Daynewho was the best jouster of these guys
>>218101380>>218101409>>218101422being room temp iq is wild
>>218101465No escape from this humiliation friend
>>218101465t. bittersneedfag
>>218101465>you can't stab through mailthen why the fuck did we invent plate armor
>>218101496It looks cooler
>>218101465mail will prevent stabs from going deep but you can still be stabbed through the mail dumbfuck
>>218101473>>218101477>>218101496>>218101513calm down ry, you got it wrong, you made some sloppa
>>218101465Depends on the room. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOmPAayqV6I
>>218101496kek
>>218101465We should put this retard in chainmail and everyone in the thread gets to stab him
>>218099848>The Night's Watch literally does not make sense as an organization. You're basically giving all these criminals access to weapons and even ships, without pay, and at no point do they just get up and leave.That's a very good point. A military historian wrote a nice blog post about exactly that topic a while ago and laid out how the NW lacks the ideological commitment to staying at the wall.https://acoup.blog/2024/08/16/fireside-friday-august-16-2024/Criticizing Grrm like that made redditors very angry.
>>218101454Bobby was a mediocre jouster. He was all about beating up people with his hammer
>>218101570FOR THE WATCHALONG
>>218101570not afraid, you're a weak ass bitch aerion territory
>>218101570i'm down, if he doesn't bleed he gets to stab us
>>218101454>>Bobby Bbad jouster>Daemon Bgood jouster, only ever lost once to Baelor>Jaime Lannisterloses to tyrells lol>Barristan Selmygreat jobber jouster, had he not lost to rhaegar he could have prevented a war>Arthur Daynei don't even know if he jousts
>>218101578>acoupthis dude is a liberal hack who tried to shit on Sparta in retarded fashion, "muh military historian"even right off the back he fucks up because 80% of the watch is barely trained for fighting
>>218101496what if you wear both
>>218101632All NW recruits go through basic military training and are expected to stand ready to be called up for defense atleast.Deveraux is a wokie and a US nationalist, strangely enough, so his takes on modern politics are garbage. His historical posts, like the ones about Sparta, are a great read however. Of course people who have strangely build their modern day identity politics around worshipping a fantasy version of an insane regime might be averse to reading it.
>>218101674then you are really hard to kill, you have to go with either inner upper thigh attacks, armpits, or grapple them and remove their helmets and go for the neckor just use a hammer
>>218101578>Night’s Watch is, at the time of A Song of Ice and Fire, a decaying, weakened institution, with only around a thousand men at arms at the outset. This answer doesn’t work for me, because the Night’s Watch has been only slowly decaying over centuries. The Targaryens ruled for nearly 300 years and this institution trucked on through all of that without major issue. Three centuries is a long time! Highly cohesive bodies of men who lack a reason to be loyal to the polity that employs them tend to go rogue in periods of time measured in months, not centuries. Dude is sort of dumb though because i’m pretty sure George did say there were mutiple mutinies and instances of the NW splitting under competing Lord Commanders
>>218099927>>218100040>>218100117What the training and brotherhood training on the wall does is to create a cohesive force of armed and trained fighters. For some of them life at the wall might be better than what they had before, but now as an army they could march off and take for themselves whatever luxuries and rulership they want. You need a strong ideology to keep soldiers at a shit frontier, with no prospect of retirement. The above acoup article goes into that.
>>218101695>All NW recruits go through basic military training and are expected to stand ready to be called up for defense atleast.and we see that most of them are closer to Sam than Jon in terms of ability. >His historical posts, like the ones about Sparta, are a great read however.he ignores that they were a dominant power for centuries and that their reputation meant they often didn't have to fight at all, which he doesn't count as victories
>>218101443>>get letter saying targs are killing each other again, demand I bring my armies South>>throw letter in the fire>not my problem
>>218101727>but now as an army they could march off and take for themselves whatever luxuries and rulership they want.except the leadership and best fighters are almost exclusively nobility that joined voluntarily, the ones who would be most committed to the Watch's traditions. And if they do somehow kill all the leadership and march off, they have to march 100s of miles before they reach anything that the Watch doesn't already control. And by that time the Starks are marching to crush themthe guy is a hack ignoring or ignorant of all the magic involved in the setting and the Wall itself
