What was your reaction to the scene you learned what Hodor really meant?

Hold the door? So fucking dumb I hated it

Hodor.

(((game of thrones)))
why do people watch this shit?

Because murder, rape, incest and zombies. You know, the good stuff.

wow based D&D so deep

I feel embarrassed for you.

why are you even in a anime website

I fucking hated that shit. What kind of interstellar Nolan fucking time travel bullshit was that?

I was wondering how would they translate it to the foreign plebs who watch it dubbed on TV.

What relevance did it have to the plot?
Zilch

it was beautiful. i came.

Showed how he could change the past. You know hes going to end up using that shit again. That and the inevitable meeting mid battle where hes confronted by zombie Hodor.

this is kino costume design desu

hodor isn't hodor without bran doing what he does. if not for bran, who knows who hodor would have turned out to be.
hell it was implied that hodor was actually fairly good with a sword, his size and power could have been critical in the wars that were, and the ones to come

Why do people pretend it wasnt cringe
>ho(ld the)door
are you fucking kidding me?

So they gave some background into a nothing-character. And?
How is this going to help in the final battle? Bran was a wasted character

it's like the kind of stupid idea you know they came up with smoking weed together and thought it was genius

My mind was blown. Hold the door => Hodor, it's like poetry.

Normies are so fucking stupid, they thought "HOLD THE DOOR" was incredible mind blowing writing. What fucking morons, it's so terrible.

thought it was the stupidest fucking thing. it seemed like it was a cringey retcon. instead of just being a retard he was *destined* to "hold the door"--as if his entire raison d'etre was to allow Meera and Bran to escape, even though it was a stupid contrived tension in the first place.

even with a good understanding of english it might feel weird.

I don't remember what it meant

This. Time paradoxes are impossible to take seriously.
Then again, I can't take them seriously every time they say "warg".

I hardly understand what the fuck happened honestly. I also couldn't help but think Hodor is the strongest person in existence.

It was fucking stupid. The only thing that makes it good is you gotta figure when he switches permanently over to saying "hodor," it's actually wyllie saying "whoa dude, that was fuuuuuucked, did you niggers see that fuckin huge dude get ripped? Ffffffuuuuuucckk..." But if course it's coming out as hodor which makes it funny. Basically the whole scene was a failure because it was more comedy than serious or sad

This to be quite honest. It would have been fine if holding the door was something of consequence, like his whole life was building to this one moment. But really that cunt Meera just told him to sacrifice his life to buy them a couple minutes at most, and he didn't even have a say in the matter. And the only reason he had to hold the door was because Bran was a fucking stupid twat. My initial reaction was anger at such shit writing and at how detestable the characters were and at how the audience are meant to think it's cool or profound.

Why didn't the children of the forest put a better locking mechanism on the escape door?

That's literally how life works. People die random, meaningless, unfair deaths all the time.

Even the show makes a nod towards the fact that Lannister footsoliders are just normal people when Arya stops and eats with them. Woman just dont pay attention to shit

It was a cool moment, Hodor was a very sympathetic character. And I was glad that the whole Brann (Bronn?) subplot finally got an interesting scene, because so far it had been the most boring.
Though it made e wonder how all the non-English translations would handle that scene without making it sound retarded.

I was just a little sad that Hodor had zero control of the most pivotal moments in his life. The poor fucker was basically brain fucked and turned into an autistic mute by an amateur time-traveller child and forced to sacrifice himself thousands of miles away from his comfy home. He was reduced to an animal when he really should have just been an average joe in the world. Albeit taller and probably stronger. Probably could have rivalled or bettered Robert Strong in his prime.

I've got a better question.
What was your reaction when you found out that Gendry and messenger birds and dragons can basically teleport in the last season?

What's the reason for this? My mum understood what the director was going for perfectly. Are American women just stupid, evil, or do these women that record themselves think people are watching reaction videos to see over the top mindless praise rather the genuine reactions so they just ham it up in the manner they think their audience expects to see?

Why would you watch the reactions of a bunch of pajeets, some niggers and a white girl react to a television show? Do people watch shows on their own and then watch how other people watch it to find out if they watched it right?

Just fucking react and think however you feel at the time. Discuss wither others over lunch if there's merit or speculation to be had. Or just log it away and fucking move on.

Because a hook-nosed quadriplegic went back in time and made them do his bidding in the future and therefore, uh

Because after the first season of Spartacus ended everyone went HOLY FUCK where can we still get ultraviolence + TNA?

protip: its the only reason why Black sails was tolerated for so long: People want Ultravoilence + TNA.

I just assumed Littlefinger gave Gendry one of his jetpacks.

that scene felt so weird because every single second feels like they're about to pull an edgy switcharoo and just have them attempt a rape like in every other scene with random plebs. then they didn't

Better yet, what was your reaction when you found out that there's going to be a very similar if not identical time travel plot in the books too?

This but to a lesser extent. I was more like "that was sort of cool but also really fucking stupid, and a pretty forced and silly tearjerker scene."

Tragic, never forget.

Pretty much. A bit too innocuous for Yea Forums though.

It was GRRM's idea. It was not a retcon. He told them what the character name meant, and planned it since the first book.

>how is bran the hero when ALL HE EVER DID was GO BACK IN TIME AND MAKE SOMEONE WHO WAS NORMAL RETARDED?

Are you faggots retarded?

George's entire thing has always been "nobody is entirely good or entirely bad, lots of the people who are idolised through history did some pretty bad things too".

George told them

I wondered if Max von Sydow felt as though he'd been stiffed. I guess it's possible he didn't mind and at his age actually prefers less taxing small roles.

Doubt it, he does a ton of small roles for cash now. He's the go to very old wise guy for Hollywood

Thought it was completely retarded.

>He told them what the character name meant, and planned it since the first book.
you believe that? does that make it seem any less like an ass-pull?

George has literally gave an anecdote about when he was in an elevator and a fan shouted "Hold the Door" to keep it open, then 30 seconds later was asking him about Hodor's name

I like to think he deliberately lied to 'em.

This is it

Martin: I do get tired of posing for pictures all the time.

Me: Well, you’re quite famous now.

Martin: I wasn’t unknown before.

Me: True, among us. But you were never a guest on Conan before.

Martin: True.

Around the third time we were on the elevator together, he pushed he button for our floor and then asked the others what floors they needed, and then after everyone left, he turned to me.

Martin: I always wanted to be an elevator operator. If the writing thing hadn’t worked out…

We both laughed and went on to our rooms.

The final time we ended up together, the conversation went like this:

Me: I finally figured out why you have a character named “Hodor.”

Martin: Oh?

Me: I was thinking about your comment about wanting to be an elevator operator. It’s clear to me now that “Hodor” is short for “Hold the door.”

Martin: (laughing) You don’t know how close to the truth you are!

poo in room

not saying it was good or bad writing

but D&D shouldn't be blamed for this (though they should for a million other things)

I'm thinking there's a reason why the NK purposefully walked up to the 3-eyed crow/Brynden Rivers and scythed him in two. Not simply because he was in the way.

Frenchfag here. It was the only part where they kept the original version but they added a subtitle saying what it means in french

That's dumb af

heh

If you think the whole Bran storyline is good writing, you're fucking retarded anyway and can't he helped.
In narrative fiction, the absolute worst thing and the most bluepilled thing you can do is - IN ORDER TO EXPLAIN IMPORANT PLOT POINTS THAT WILL INEVITABLY ARISE IN THE FUTURE - introduce some sort of fucking time travelling or visions of the past. It is lazy, it is false, it is unimaginative and not creative at all.
Hodor's name origin revelation is normie-tier (people who read Harry Potter and Dan Brown novels) attempt at making everything seem deeper than it actually is, and an attempt to convince your fanbase that you're some kind of a genius who is a master mindfucker.
It's embarassing how there are people in this thread who defend this.

>Why the fuck can Bran mindcontrol throughout time?
>This will be how everything that ever happened was put into motion, won't it?
Also
>Wow Bran is a fucking asshole for doing that especially since he was never shown to be sad about what he did.

Wiped Bran's ass and probably also watered him for years.

Critics generally don't discuss the film/show for the same period of time as the media length itself. Unless there's a fucking lot to unpack.
I listen to critics to hear other perspectives and see if there's anything I missed or didn't think about at the time. If I even think it's worth digging into.
>watching other people simply react live to media is not of any worth unless I guess if it's humorous.

I watch other people play bits of games if it's something that my laptop can't run and I was somewhat interested in spoiling it for myself. Especially if I really don't think I'll be able to play it for years. In which case I'll mostly have forgotten about it so it's no worries anyways.
>I don't watch multiplayer games. Outside of absolute fiascos like Fallout 76 just to see how bad it is for my own amusement.

I am most definitely a buzzkill so you got me there, senpai.

>Schemes impossible since cripple wizard can just wheel in and exposition everything
>Hey Bran, should we go fight this battle right here, right this time against these people? Look into the future and see if we win. No? Guess we ain't fighting them today.
>Hey Bran, check what Euron is doing, did he really run away or maybe he's like ferrying troops.
>Hey Bran, check out if Cercei is holding her end of the bargain
Literally kills the show

Yeah, it's basically on the level of:
Wow, I never would have thought that Tom Marvelo Riddle could be an anagram for Lord Voldemort! That's amazing!

I don't like thoughtless time travel gimmicks. It sort of works for Back To The Future.
It really didn't work for Looper.

how is this coping?
I never blamed it on d&d or grrm, it's shit writing regardless of who wrote it.

Sorry, forgive me.

It was an anagram for I Am Lord Voldemort.

Does Brienne have a fate yet? Last I heard, she was being hung offscreen by Undead Lady Stark.

But the actress of Brienne deserves to be blacked after signing on for Captain Phasma-fart and shilling a strong feminist agenda during promotion of the role despite being a literal who that's been killed twice already.
