Do you actually believe this are you retarded

Long Night should have been a whole season of darkness.

Should've got some 1v1s with actual White Walkers or some avengers shit beyond the wall group fight with the core cast.

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED BROS

WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GET THIS

>kind of like what happened to George Lucas and the prequels
Say what you want about the direction George took the prequels in, but at least all of the questionable shit he did with the plot made sense in-universe. D&D completely fucked up eight seasons and several books worth of plot and character arcs to give us the shitshow that was episode 3.

So obviously the first major problem outside of a story standpoint is the battle tactics.

I would have had the moat further out surrounding a bigger perimeter, and the Unsullied inside the castle walls bottlenecking the openings. The Dothraki, instead of blades, would have bows. Archers on an open field with Dragon-glass tipped arrows. The walls would be covered in hot oil ready to go up in flames.

The Iron-Born would be atop the castle walls, not with Bran, providing fire from high up. They’re crack shot archers, they should be raining down from above.

Ghost would be in the crypts, protecting everyone. There was NO reason for him to be charging at ALL, he’s invaluable and is more than a pet.

Overall, better protection and less swarm, drastically cutting down casualties and wight invasion, and putting more emphasis on the Walkers themselves having to come in and fight. Would also cut down the bullshit “someone gets swarmed, cut away, cut back and they’re fine” BULLSHIT since the fighting would be more focused.

Instead of Theon, JON is in the Godswood and not on Rhaegal. He’s unskilled in dragonflight and has no business aback a dragon in a major fight when he’s always been an on foot commander and beast in martial combat. Instead, Rhaegal is performing cover fire above the Godswood leaving the Godswood untouched by wights and Walkers trying to get in.

Are you that mentally deficient?

The gap has nothing to do with work hours or how much they make in a month compared to men. It is the hourly rate they get. Two office workers in a bank, same exact duties and same exact hours. The woman gets 6% less an hour than the man.
They do that because the woman could possibly get pregnant at some time or because they deem women as more lazy than men. It doesn't matter if the woman is barren or 40 years old and already had her kids or is a lesbian or had a hysterectomy so she doesn't menstruate. It doesn't matter if she completes just as many files as her male coworker. She will still get 6% less than he does.

What you are thinking is the 20% wage gap which is about the fact that women generally work less and in jobs that don't pay as well to start with. But in those jobs men still get the 6% more..

She's so beautiful, it's like she's surrounded by a heavenly, fuzzy aura!

Mine was some Tarly boy at the battle of Summerhall. My horse took an arrow, so I was on foot, slogging through the mud. He came running at me, this dumb high-born lad, thinking he could end the rebellion with a single swing of his sword I knocked him down with a hammer, Gods, I was strong then. Caved in his breastplate. Probably shattered every rib he had. Stood over him, hammer in the air. Right before I brought it down he shouted ‘Wait! Wait!’.

Part 2 of 3

With Walkers falling in battle, we get less casualties as the bring dozens of wights down with them.

Dany and the Dothraki are the only ones outside the walls, Dany atop Drogon fighting the Night King.

Bran says, “I have to go now”. Instead of Ravens, he wargs Rhaegal and helps Dany leaving Jon to defend against Walkers that enter.

I’m not sure I’d change the library stuff with Arya and the Hound, but I’d have it more clear where Arya goes. She goes to the Godswood, and her and Jon double dragon the Walkers.

Dany falls off Drogon in similar fashion and is saved by Jorah in a much more believable fight since there are less wights. Jorah does still die.

Lyanna Mormont, instead of whatever the fuck that was the giant did, just gets crushed. Harsh but effective and reminds us what show we’re watching.

The NK descends into the Godswood, alone as his Walkers are doing the fighting with less wights available with these better tactics.

Melisandre lights the moat Gandalf-style but bursts her amulet and begins to rapidly age. She looks around helplessly, now old.

Bran in still warged into Rhaegal and Drogon is swarmed in similar fashion.

Instead of Jon being overtaken by Viserion, it’s Jaime and Brienne. Remember when Jaime charged Drogon? Well instead of REEEEEING at Viserion, Jaime takes charge and slays Viserion to save Brienne. Tormund slays the giant that killed Lyanna.

The NK raises his arms to taunt Jon and phase 2 begins. The crypts come alive, but instead of plot armor shenanigans we lose Gilly and Missendei.

What I mean is that D&D are so full of themselves, they're narcissists that think because GoT became such a big show that they're geniuses and their shit doesn't stink, therefore they won't take any criticism of their work seriously and brush everything off.

Old Nan is a dumb cunt.

thats called beauty fuzz

same as that 45 minute critique people were posting yesterday
"fuck this fucking fuck fuck fuck why the fuck oh fuck for fucks sake bla bla bla"

Part 3 of 3

We get a 1 v 1 with the NK and Jon (Arya conspicuously missing). Jon is completely outclassed. He’s getting thrown around trying to get the NK to avoid Bran.

Arya lunges from her hiding spot and is caught by the Night King, who, instead of just standing there, uses Aryas momentum and stabs Bran in one move using Aryas hand. Aryas mortified, Jons mortified, and the Night Kings chokehold grasp starts turning Arya blue like Crasters babys. He looks dead at Jon.

And here’s where it gets a little fanservicey but bear with me.

So far we’ve lost Gilly, Missendei, Jorah, Lyanna, Edd, Theon and Bran.

The Night King drops Arya and she lunges at Jon who is forced to run her through with Longclaw. He’s stunned, but as he loosens the blade we cut to Melisandre looking up suddenly chanting enthusiastically. From the Godswood a flame shoots up to the sky, piercing the darkness.

It’s Lightbringer. The Night King draws his blade, and we get the real 1 v 1, with Jon ending the Long Night with a now enflamed Longclaw.

Melisandre smiles and fades to dust.

Casualties are:

Gilly, Missendei, Jorah, Lyanna, Edd, Theon, Melisandre, Bran and Arya along with countless others.

Jon fulfills Azor Ahai. The 3 Eyed Raven is dead meaning they can’t utilize him to deal with Cersei. We get more serious deaths then the Red Wedding, and the NK is shown to be formidable.

You're fucking stupid if you think women everywhere get paid 6% less than men everywhere. It's an average that has not yet fully been accounted for, and it's negligible for most women.

That is so cute, and yet sexy too.

The 6% is the skill difference between men and women that favors men in the majority of jobs.

It's funny that you think that 6% would hold universally for all jobs though. Jobs that men are naturally better at would skew that number upwards, as in any job that requires manual labor of any kind.

So, when Maisie Williams read the script for season 8 and saw that Arya was to kill the Night King, she didn't like it. She thought that Jon should be the one to do it. It's fucking sad how even the actors are disappointed in this shit. I can't imagine how Kit feels. Spending more than eight years of your life playing the same character, and suddenly your character arc is completely BTFO by SUBVERTED EXPECTATIONS.

Holy shit, it makes sense. Azor Ahai had to sacrifice the one he loved just like grrm had to sacrifice his work to D&D

Jon burned his hand saving Jeor Mormont from that wight. He doesn't have the immunity that Dany has.

Yeah, I knew the show wouldn't live up to it quite right after the first ep. That said, many of the actors did such a good job I can't picture the characters any different.

Homeless Harry will get no more dialogue before his death scene, calling it now. The GC are just meat for CGI battle number 32.

no one knows, he got ressed by fire lord after all

She was just tired and noped out.

Emilia Clarke doesn’t get enough credit for playing Dany

I think she perfectly captured how flat and dull she is for the entire mereen arc

Yeah, pretty much all of the main cast own their characters now.

pretty sure there's been povs for most of the battles, only blackout I can think off is tyrion at the green fork, even then it showed much more than the show did before he got knocked unconscious

Targs aren't immune to fire, many have died from fire. Dany being immune to fire is a meme made up by the show

Why did she genocide the Freys? The waif was no one, Arya failed the test deliberately. Arya uses Jaqen's training for her own ambitions.

Aegons conquest would be pretty boring outside of like 3 scenes, the field of fire, the burning of harrenhal and the forging of the iron throne, which would still look pretty stupid on tv since the show throne looks super organized and impractical to set up with dragon fire where as the actual throne is just a heap of swords

Yeah, but the show is what we are talking about m8.

Not the OP but maybe someone else put a Faceless Men contract on the Freys. Or Maybe it was just residual Arya memories that compelled the Waif to do it. Or maybe it's because every Face gets free revenge for being used by the Faceless Men.

That place must fucking suck to live in during summer, millions of mosquitos

I sincerely hope that’s the backside or the castle, because according to s8 the godswoos is on the left (when facing the entrance

King's Landing also looked great in the first season. Somehow all the most disappointing setting appearances, namely Highgarden and Casterly Rock, came at the peak of the show's popularity and income.

At least Viserys died in season one true to the books rather than some anime-original-ending-tier horseshit

This pisses me off so much, why would you not read them to get a better feel for the character. They only take a few days if you do the audiobook on 2x speed, it's not like they have to know them in-and-out to write a university thesis.

Yes. Ned was actually a virgin due to muh honor and all the kids are actually targ bastards

those were some of most perfectly cast and acted characters too, viserys and blackfish especially stole the show every time they were on screen

...Targs aren't immune to fire in the show either, just dany for whatever reason.

Why Viserys? It played out almost exactly the same.

Yeah, I know. I explicitly stated that when I said that Jon got burned all the way back in season 1 during that first fight with the wight.

Because he actively elevated the character with his performance all to achieve nothing in the end

Yep. They say you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, but apparently you can go the other way just fine.

At least he's remembered fondly though. The ending doesn't suddenly make his contributions suck.

did alys karstark's rack survive episode 3

Theon's sister came to Winterfell with 50 of the best swordsmen of her islands and all it took was shirtless Ramsay getting 3 dogs out of a cage to make them flee. And he did it very very slowly. It was just stupid.

Interesting.

Stephen Dillane delivered top-tier Stannis despite not reading the books AND D&D raping his character due to inherently being unable to understand a character who puts his duty and principles first.

>Unsullied training begins when the boys are five years old: some were selected to be Unsullied as infants and castrated then, though any slave boy up to the age of five may be later selected to be made into an Unsullied, and then castrated. For over a decade until they are full-grown, they train from dawn to dusk until they have mastered the shortsword, shield, and three lengths of spear, as well as their training to fight together as organized phalanxes. The training regimen is utterly brutal, and because of this, only one out of every four boys survives until the end.

And Samwell fucking Tarly somehow survived

Uh, that doesn't make up for the lack of Jon, Dany, Tyrion. It's a fine book, but probably the worst still. How would you order from best to worst?

>an entire book without Dany chapters
I was so happy then

Of course, but it's still sad that Harry Lloyd gave his best for that character, not just matching the book but elevating the character, when the guys in charge won't put that same love and effort in. Making a show is an art and Lloyd cares about this art as a ASOIAF fan (narrates the Dunk and Egg books on Audible). If you want your art to be truly great it must sting to see others turn it into shit.

>castrated
Low test basedboys

No wonder they’ve literally failed at everything theyve done

Honestly, the show as a whole has fucked the Unsullied over since the start. Despite them being more harshly trained than practically anybody else in existence, they are consistently fodder during battles that get their ass kicked repeatedly and only triumph because of their numbers over the enemy's.

It's still gonna be lauded as the GoaT. That almost makes it hurt more.

Dillane honestly feels so natural as Stannis it's hard to imagine anyone else. Being a classically trained actor and experienced in roles as a stern but ultimately principled figure, the man could've read every book cover to cover or none of them at it'd only make a minor difference. It's amazing what he did with some of the shit he was given.

It's the Worf Effect, but applied to an entire army

mel should've got her tits out to increase moral, not done this fire shit

This, them fighting with long spears only kinda fucks them over

It literally wasn't.

>giving Dothraki bows with Dragon-glass tipped arrows
>not even considering how long it would take to equip the entire dothraki army
>not even considering how long it would take to equip the entire dothraki armi with only 5 arrows each
stopped reading here
stop being EQUALLY retarded as dabid and his tranny dickface

This part makes no sense anyways like its completely counter productive when you want them to be the best fighters I guess they think there formations and dexterity is enough? Why not leave the balls so they can continue to produce test and cut the dick like ramsey did to theon

Obviously it's possible for great actors to pull off a good performance either way, it would just help lesser actors do a better job overall.

That's literally everything I was thinking while watcing it

Why didn’t they have the dragons make more obsidian and cake the walls with it

this show has jumped the shark

Stephen Dillane was a fucking treasure. Dungeons and Dragons tried making Stannis out to be worse than Hitler, yet he still managed to make him seem more like a tragic hero

Why didn’t they just put Bran in a spikey dragonglass cage

>castrating your slave soldiers
>abusing and breaking them utterly with no incentives
>light armour, small shields and short spears, despite being heavily inspired by greek hoplites who wore heavy armour relative to their time period and made use of heavy spears and metal plated shields
By all rights the Unsullied and Dothraki should have their shit kicked in by any organized fighting force in Westeros or the Free Cities. What was GURM thinking?

They had a fuck ton more of it already anyway. You can see piles upon piles of it in the scenes with Gendry forging.

Why didn't they just not bother capturing the wight then they would never have got a dragon and never got past the wall and they could have just ignored them until it was summer again

Stannis becomes more willing to "play the game" over time rather than expect everyone to do what he says all the time. Would have been amazing to see Dillane portray Stannis' evolution on screen. Could you imagine a book accurate Theon I TWoW? Pure kino

why didn't they just scatter obsidian caltrops throughout the Godswood

Didn't the Targaryen army set up an obsidian industry as soon as they arrived in Westeros, beginning of season 7?
And even if equipping the dothraki with millions of obsidian arrows was unrealistic, they could have ground dragonglass into obsidian powder, loaded it on dragons and crows, and spread it on the white walkers from the air, like a WW1 gas attack. There were SO MANY options for the Winterfell defenders, it's stupid.

imagine the butthurt if that was how they defeated the night king

They would’ve gotten through either way because bran passed the wall, and it got Azor Jaime to go north. But then they decided against that plot

How much is the discrepancy between right handed and left handed people? Surely there most be one.

>actors who had already read the books
>Barristan, Blackfish
lmao the two worst most disrespectful deaths in the show, pure pottery

I know in the books Stannis sends word for Rolland Storm to start mining it all the way back in ASoS when Stannis is at the Wall. Can't remember if he does in the show or not. But if he did that must be months and months ago

would have been better than fucking Arya shadowstepping past an entire line of White Walkers into a 25 foot long jump to YEET the NK out of the plot

So then ultimately bran going north in the first place and getting marked was the root cause of the threat

The entire dragonglass subplot was ultimately pointless because it only instagibs white walkers and the night king was killed by valerian steel. If anything equipping your army with shitty rock weapons probably lead to even more casualties

Stannis says there’s mines full of it to Jon in s5

>the doom of valyria was actually just some dude farting
*BRAAAAAAAAAAAAP*

55 NIGHTS

>tfw you realize westeros would be better off if bran died from the fall

Hint hint, 3ER is evil, bran doesn’t realize until he’s south of the wall. At which point he’s basically a vegetable and consumed by the raven

Wasn't it at the dreadfort?

but that makes a paradox, because hodor being hodor means it has to happen

Considering how disgruntled he was with D&D's direction in the first place, if he read the books that interview would probably have him frothing at the mouth instead.

>hodor was a spaz his entire life just to hold a door for Bran for 20 seconds then get eaten by zombies

FUCK

In the books the 3 eyed crow and bloodraven are very possibly very different entities.The show just combined them into 3ER and made up their own fanfiction.

>littlefinger would still be alive

Only watched the first season of true detective , what happen at the 3rd?

are there any tv shows that have a good ending? I seriously can't think of any

This theory is almost certainly true, I'd bet my life on it

blackadder goes forth

>In the books the 3 eyed crow and bloodraven are very possibly very different entities.
To be fair, the book does "claim" that Bloodraven is the three-eyed-crow. If he's revealed to be an imposter, the show could still do that too.

Never trust a fookin Stark m8

Breaking bad

The show could, but ehhh, that ship has kinda sailed I feel like. Bran becoming the new NK or something might happen.

:(

The nk is the real three eyed raven. Raising dead is just advanced warging

Hodor is the key to all of this

Actually he never claims to be the 3EC. Bran asks him something like "You're the Three-Eyed Crow?" and Bloodraven is like "Crow? I was a crow once..." etc. but is clearly talking about being in the Watch. The CotF call him the Last Greenseer. The books also mention the difference between ravens and crows a number of times. Bran has a lot of different dreams, it's likely that Bloodraven is the weirwood that talks to him while the crow is something else. They aren't two forms of Bloodraven since they appear together at one point. Tree dreams and crow dreams have different messages and Bran is only afraid of the crow ones, calls them nightmares. Also Euron seems to have had crow dreams but that's a whole other story.

>dreadfort
Who's holding it anyway? Bolton loyalists? A Stark garrison? White walkers?

e3 was stylistically designed to be this way, but can they diminish the effects of it?

yeah crows are almost always a bad thing in the books, aside from the Night's Watch.

Probably Stark loyalists that retreated to Winterfell before the Battle of Winterfell.

Yes please

The term crow for the Watch is literally an insult from the Wildlings too, so even though the Watch are good saying crow is still a negative thing

All battles where a POV is around:
>Green Fork: shown in its entirety
>Whispering Wood/Camps: told about, couldn't really expect Catelyn to go out in the middle of the battle
>Blackwater: Tyrion passes out only after three full chapters of battle
>Winterfell: Theon gets punched out as the Boltons turn on his handful of men, but the battle against Ser Rodrik is already done
>Meereen: told about, once again Dany isn't really a fighter
>Castle Black: shown in its entirety, from the wildling raid to the siege to Stannis' arrival and Mance being routed
>Shield Islands: begins in medias res, then shown
>Deepwood Motte: Asha passes out after a while
>Winterfell: who knows, but there are two POVs around
>Meereen: seems to be shown in its entirety from what we know
Seems to me like you're full of shit.

Bran and Gendry and Rickon and Joffrey and Tommen and Jojen and Dickon and Lancel are so handsome.

r/freefolk is fucking gay. I got called a "kneeler" for criticizing the last episode. I thought that sub was supposed to be a redpilled alternative to the main one but it's just another circlejerk

What was even the point of introducing the concept of time travel if they are not going to use is? Or are they going to use it to defeat fucking Cersei when they didn't need it for the NK?

yeah, go to r/asoiaf

You could ask the same thing about literally every castle in the realm desu. We just have to accept that no houses are significant enough to warrant appearing in the show aside from dumb child lords/ladies in the North.
>No Reacher Lords are resisting Cersei even though they only sacked Highgarden
>No Westermen interacting with Cersei even though they probably lead her armies
>No Ironborn lords Euron has to politic with
>Bronze Yohn probably has the 2nd most men in the North, maybe 1st now after huge Dothraki casualties, yet the Vale lords/Bronze Yohn are background characters at best
>Dorne literally just gave up and went home apparently
>Storm Lords absent for all 8 seasons

they wanted the hodor moment, but they don't want any of the other bran moments because they're not epic emotional shocking moments so they cut them all out to make a beeline for the conclusion

They gotta use it. All the signs are pointing towards Bran orchestrating all the events in the end. It fits with that whole bitterwseet ending George has promised because Bran will have to allow his fall and family to be murdered, along with all the other fucked up shit that has happened, because it's the best case scenario.

There's no such thing as redpilled on Reddit.

You mentioned Winterfell and Meereen from TWoW. Winterfell will likely be a separate battle from the Battle at the Crofter's Village. There will also be a battle at Storm's End, and Euron will fight a naval battle against the Redwyne Fleet.

Two battles told about where the character has no reason to be on the field and in fact it makes more sense for them to remain behind, one where the character gets knocked out AFTER the actual fight and, yeah, a grand total of two where they get knocked out during the final stages. If that's proof, fine.

good one, r/tv

do you really think d&d care about what george had in mind?

ye r/asoiaf is leagues better than the minge subordinates over at freefolk

r/freefolk doesn't like the new episode, the most upvoted post in their history is a meme criticizing it, it has 98k upvotes

In the Oxford Union interview, Sam's actor said he didn't read the books because he wanted to be surprised at what would happen to Sam when he read the script. In the same interview Kit said he read them all because it was the source material and he wanted to get a better idea on who Jon was and out how to approach the role. Different strokes and all that.

What more is there to know about the Blackwater or Winterfell? Deepwood Motte Asha is captured, would you rather there were two extra pages of her awake being tied up by some random Wull guys?

no, probably not, but there are still hints in the show. Like it cutting to Bran after Varys and the Red Priestess' conversation about what he heard in the flames. The Mad King flashback, the tower of Joy scene with Ned hearing Bran, ect. I think it's gonna be the big final twist (that fans have been calling for years). I can't imagine Bran has much to do, besides warg into a dragon.

Why does being surprised at a script make your acting better? I just see no reason to not read your source material, you're being payed maybe millions of dollars and yet you don't even bother to read it over out of some small shred of respect for George making you all that money.

based kit

Some actors don't want to overthink it. They just want to roll with a natural reaction in the moment.

Because Winterfell and the Red Keep are 3D models since they are reoccuring places, while Highgarden and Casterly Rock are only shown once in an establishing shot and are just photoshopped.

Not to mention, if you're playing a viewpoint character, I can't see why you wouldn't want to read the books. I've seen how D&D's scripts look, they read like reddit posts with jokes littered in the stage directions and never delve into anything about how the character feels or how the actor should play their lines, while the books give you all of that. You'd be doing a disservice to not read the books and actually get to know the core of the character.

what the night king needed to capture winterfell
>hundred thousand undead and undead giants and other united forces of darkness
>undead dragon

what Theon needed to capture winterfell
>twenty good men

gee its as if winterfell was abandoned because everyone went to fight for robb and theon took advantage of the situation and that's precisely why the were able to take it

I hate this episode too user but don't be a fucking moron

Winterfell was largely abandoned when Theon captured it though.

If you think there will be a last minute twist about bran being evil you are literally shitting yourself with delusion. There's only three episodes left and each one will focus on build up to kings landing confrontation, the battle itself, and epilogue. There is no reason to believe D&D have written anything that strays from this basic template. Think about it logically and realize it's the truth, the Battle for Winterfell sucked not because it's a huge misdirection, but because it seemed cool in their heads.

Yeah exactly. It just baffles me. Peter Dinklage sitting there like
>Whelp, this show has made me a household name, payed me millions,
and landed me film roles. I'm a very important character with an important emotional character arc. Hmmm, I have a six months between the season release press tour and filming the next season. How about I read my chapters from the book? It's popular enough to warrant this series being made, so it must at least be decent material, and I owe much of my success to its existence, AND I'd better understand my character, AND it would only take a few days to read, perhaps on planes between press tours or read on Audible by a fellow cast member who I shared screentime with. Oh whatever, fuck it, I'll actively not read it FOR EIGHT YEARS because who really cares.

The books are trash anyway, best that this series is forgotten as early as possible.

Because he was a well-known narcissist, as set up by the long hours of character development he had. Unfortunately they were all deleted scenes on the Blu-Ray boxsets so only real fans would understand.

Autism.
They should have just made it so the first 3 eyed raven being the one who commanded the creation of NK. Hence why he is so driven by vengeance to completely kill him once and for all.

>tfw D&D upon hearing how ASOIAF ended from GRRM decided that the ending was too good for them to spoil in their show, so they took a different course and left the core mysteries unresolved and made the conclusion anticlimactic so that people can experience the true ending unspoiled when the books release

Season 3 of true detective was great and worlds better than season 2. It had brought some qaulity suspense and spookiness back to the show and potrayed dementia/alzheimers well.

Maybe the next ep will show what Bran was doing. Perhaps he alters events to ensure Arya turns up.

yes it's pretty neat shit
