Why do people actually think his backstory is any good? The name origin is laughably bad writing

This part isn't in the books, but allegedly, this part is one of the parts George had planned.

It isn't a backstory it's a footnote. But it's sad as fuck bro. This little kid that can't controll his visions dooms a cool guy to retardation for 30 years just to hold a door.

But it was all a dream. Just wait 6 weeks.

but that's fucking based, I don't understand how people can hate on this

yes because GRRM had it in mind when he wrote the first book

I noticed how over the course of the show, they turned Hodor from a retard into basically a human Pokemon. By the time you get to season 6, he seems to have relatively normal intelligence, his only defect is that he can only say his "name".

>But it's sad as fuck bro. This little kid that can't control his visions dooms a cool guy to retardation for 30 years just to hold a door.
it's not sad as fuck in the way they executed it
it's an easily preventable horror movie death but in a TV show that lasted for 6 years, so it just doesn't fit
he bought them like 20 seconds of extra time with his death

it's incredibly cringeworthy, but then again so is most GoT writing

Translators must have had it hard

Probably is better in the books

>book: (something cool happens)
>you: Haha! That is bad.

In that scenario, you're a low-IQ troglodyte, did you know that? Women literally cross the street to avoid your DNA

>>book: (something cool happens)
who are you quoting

redpill me on what happens, its not in the books and I don't watch this rubbish

Low energy

Made no sense to cut off his hand for the lulz.

he cut off the hand of the greatest swordsman in Westeros

are you retarded

Why did they cut off his hand in the books?

>giving back mutilated hostages is no problem at all

Because it was GRRMs idea so people pretend it's not retarded

Bran accidentally bridges the past and present, giving a young Hodor a seizure where he repeats the phrase "hold the door" until it eventually slurs together as "Hodor". There's not really any good reason for it, it's a forced "OH SHIT" moment for nomies to talk about the next day.

Have you ever actually had sex? It's terrible, they want to stick around afterwards and they're needy or some other stupid made up feeling so I have to take them out for some breakfast and buy them a fucking omelet that we both know she's not going to finish and then when its over you have to get her number and promise you'll call her but we both know you're not going to call her. Why would you? You already got what you wanted out of her and the sex was mediocre at best and you wasted one of the two days a week you have free of being a wagecuck, you took your valuable free time and you fucking wasted it on some average broad when you could have paid for a hooker and had her get up and leave so I could go back to playing video games.

The only reason to have sex, and I mean LITERALLY THE ONLY REASON, is that fucking without a condom on feels pretty great. Nothing else about sex is even remotely enjoyable, not the stupid foreplay, not the cuddling, I don't even particularly enjoy getting my dick sucked anymore. I'd rather eat a burrito and watch American Dad and be left the fuck alone. No, I'm not going to marry you. No, you're not going to trick me into getting you pregnant(I've had a few women really try hard with that one), and no, you're not coming to live with me in my big empty house.

For one thing, it's my fucking house. For another thing, I like it big and empty, and lastly you're a fucking bore. Women are for the most part IMMENSELY boring. No, I'm not interested in hearing about your stupid day. No, I don't care what Sarah the intern said about your hair. No, I don't FUCKING CARE ABOUT HOW YOU'RE FEELING TODAY

NOT. FUCKING. WORTH. IT.

peak brainlet

to see if he still feels

>The name origin is laughably bad writing.
It's not, it's SIMPLE writing, not everything has to be complex and part of a conspiracy, Brann abused his power, we were told that warging into humans is a terrible thing to do, in the books we know that Hodor gets really fucked up everytime brann does it, brann wanted to fuck the girl using hodor's body. The boy people was backing is to blame for Hodor's retardation and we finally see why you shouldn't try to interact with the past.

>The name origin is laughably bad writing.

>"Hold the door!"
>"Holodomor!"
>"Hoe-door!"

I-I thought it was brave and edifying!

The greatest swordsman who ever lived didn't have a hand?!?

They didn't do it "for teh lulz" it worked and made him a better character because of it

baby's first time travel story

Based overexplainer

Reminder that this shit only flies in english. I don't even remember the spanish transpation but it was something hilariously retarded

It makes sense user, it's just that it's lame.

How so?

Guy was a torturer and was murdered for it in the books

I'm sure the way George envisioned it, there wasn't a completely insurmountable army of zombies pushing on the door. The name origin is setting up Brans ability to affect things in the past, the bad writing will come once they reuse that ability. The worst part of that ending is watching a race of ancient thousands year old beings with incredible power huck frag grenades at their enemies. Or the fact that one of them kills herself instead of throwing the grenade for no apparent reason

Entirely true, but desu it's totally worth all the trouble to cum ballsdeep in their throats if you ask me.

They should have stoppet at young Hodor saying "hold the door" in a slurring way. Then you'd just assume it eventually became "hodor" over time

GRRM idea

>They should have stoppet at young Hodor saying "hold the door" in a slurring way. Then you'd just assume it eventually became "hodor" over time
I'm pretty sure that's how it will be in the books
