Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended

the lord of light can bring people back from the dead but he cant call in a drone strike and you guys say this is one of the best shows ever?

It is definitely up there with some of the best shows ever like the sopranos, the wire etc.
 
I was expecting a big reveal about who NK actually is. That was a huge disappointment for me. I really hope there's some backstory to NK and they don't leave it just like that.

We already got it. We were told how he was created. What more to it is there than that?
 
:lol:

Feck Samwell Tarly. Seriously. He's a fecking hindrance. I lost count how many times he was in danger and someone saved him. Why/how he's still alive i have no idea!

He’s GRRM so he was never going to die.

Wish they’d had the balls to off him though.
 
Entertaining stuff but yeah some really stupid stuff in there.
The kill was a bit cheap but I loved how Arya had the knife pointed backwards initially.
 
Some are saying this guy was Maester Luwin.

But he's not a Stark so would he have been put to rest in the crypts?

No, he would’ve been somewhere else.
 
I reckon the bulk of the next 3 fecking feature length episodes will be Jon and Dany's tiff, Cersei being bitter, Jack Sparrow, and another big battle. We might get 10 minutes of mountain/hound payoff, Jamie being glum for a moment and more of Arya's no death run.

Cos if you haven't heard the writing is shit. And they have to do more of it now.

Who the hell is Jack Sparrow :lol:
 
Glad Ghost is alive. Also there not much of forces left, with what Dany means to win, just dragons? In trailer there are boats with Targaryan coat of arms, what are those?

It's not. I mean I haven't even seen Sopranos and The Wire but as good as it is, GOT is a few notches below Breaking Bad.

I love Got but comparing it with those 3 shows is an insult to.. Those 3 shows.
Also you haven't seen the Wire!? Get to it!
 
Ah yes, better to throw away half their forces, and THEN try and hold the walls and courtyard.

Because they could have fitted all those men inside the castle walls? Also, did you see how quickly they got over. There’s only so much you can do from inside a castle.
 
From a story perspective that was really underwhelming. After being built up as this final threat to humankind and waiting all this time for them to break through the wall, it's all over in one battle. It just leaves you with a sense that nobody ever really knew what to do with that storyline.

No idea about the trailer but I think Yara could take the iron Islands back potentially and join Targaryans.

As an undertaking it's unrivalled. It's a visual masterpiece and some of the more epic scenes are unbelievable for a TV show. But the story itself has suffered since the books dried up.
 
Pointless comparing GOT with something like the Wire. It’s dumb as a bag of rocks, so shouldn’t be taken seriously at all (which is why I find the military tactics debate hilarious) but it’s great fun and has some fantastic set-pieces.

Definitely one of the most entertaining tv series ever, provided you’re willing to suspend disbelief and enjoy it for what it is. A whole bunch of sword fights, massive battles, ice monsters and zombie dragons. With enough gore, boobs and cursing to reassure us that’s it’s ok to watch as an adult.

Suspension of belief was, obviously, not an issue for something like The Wire and hence it appealed in a very different way. I enjoyed the shit out of both shows though.

Haven't watched Sopranos but the Wire is really over rated on the caf. Not saying its a bad show but the way it's overhyped to be untouchable is wrong.
 
Haha, i get your point, but realistically this should be impossible to defeat her right now, shouldn't it? To me it looked like at least 90% of the whole northern and Danys army was wiped today. All Dotrahki, most insullied and probably most northmen too. Also they (probably?) lost another Dragon while Cersei seems to have a decent army right now.

Especially Dany lost almost everything she had to offer. Jon could basically tell her to feck off now. :lol:

They probably have to play some political games to stand a chance.
i dunno, but hopefully they have something special planned, they have to right? if your gonna end a war which could of meant the end of the world, which has been building for thousands of years in one battle halfway through a season, they have to have something special to end it with other then just another siege of kings landing. Fingers crossed other wise its gonna feel like it was all build up.

I don't think another dragon died, you would off seen it not just hint at it been possible.
 
Also couldn't have the dragon have just chewed up the NK after failing to burn him?
 
I know right ? GOT is good fun but I don't see myself watching over again like the other shows
I normally don't re watch any show. Maybe not enough time has passed yet but after a few years I can see myself watching Got again esp early seasons.
 
It's not untouchable but is pretty great.
Would agree with that but feel the same about GOT, they are really good in their own ways.
