They have all these armies from essos and no food shortage yet? Isn't the whole problem with winter being no sun to grow food? You run out of food, people starve. So....won't that happen?

This is what happens when you blow the budget paying people a million dollars per episode

Dany was retarded to march south, she should have let her army recover, every day that she waits Cerci's citizens starve and Cerci grows deeper in debt to the golden company.

Its pretty obvious that the writers just dont give a shit anymore between the night king jobbing arya, the starbucks cup and danny just forgetting about the iron fleet.

The show has been dumbed down to a level where logistics no longer matter. Character needs to be in a location, they teleport there. There needs to be a fight? Thousands of trained, equipped soldiers materialize from nothing, with any kind of kit you could possibly want. Hey remember when there were bread riots in Kings Landing back when the Cersei was at war with the Riverlands and Reach? Cause Kings Landing doesn't have access to nearly enough food to feed itself, and how the countryside has been continualy ravaged by warfare for years? Yeah none of that matters either, everybody magically has enough to eat.

Just noticed that the arms of the ballista have little octopus suction cups on them. That's a nice touch.

Is the Night King actually candlej

How can the battle be onesided? She literally has no army left and 1 dragon that can be easily killed vs an impenetrable fortress with 2 full armies.

50% of her dothraki and unsullied survived winterfell.

Yeah...cavalry in a siege and half force of spearman in close quarters combat against the full golden company and lannister's army?

You see user GoT is not a smart show, the battle will be one sided because the script needs it to be, just like making Dothraki charge into the undead, just like Danny and the rest of the Dumbfuck brigade not notice Eurons ships, just like Euron didn't have anybody in the Dragon's Stone. So just turn off your brain.

Not so fun when it's your expectations getting subverted, eh, Mr. Johnson?

Haven't touched the series yet but aren't the Targaryen known for their unstoppable dragons? If that's all it takes to kill a dragon, how the fuck did they come to power at all?

Those are juvenile dragons, the ones used during the conquering were alot bigger. And no one in Westeros had ever seen a dragon before when they showed up.

The dragons of old were over a hundred years old, with the biggest one being the size of King's Landing. Dany's dragon is like 8 years old

thanks bros, but if they were immature why the fuck were they being sent into so much active combat?

>extra pair of arms which aren't symmetrical
And this is the series written by a guy who says not having a tax code is too unrealistic.

In the show, they repeatedly say that Dany has "3 full-grown dragons". Characters on both sides, and Dany's dragons are able to comfortably assault Essos' fleets without anyone even touching them, even though the technology Euron uses is literally hundreds of years old. There are two ways to look at this:

1. The characters are all total idiots, even with centuries of books, drawings, and skeletons of dragons, they have no idea of what a full-grown dragon looks like. The ships of Essos forgot that ballista/scorpions can easily pierce dragon armor, and they never thought for a second that dragons might show up. In fact all the cities Dany took never even considered that she might have dragons even though news of the dragons hatching reached King's Landing in Westeros while they were still babies. Nobody though about this at all. Nobody even tried to prepare.

2. D&D kind of forgot that mature dragons are virtually immune to projectiles.

>The winter is hyped for the entire serie

"Winter is coming" refers to the actual winter that will kill everyone after the ambitions of petty lords dooms the land

Subverting expectations of generics fantasy shit based on logical outcomes and character motivations =/= Subverting expectations for the sake of subverting expectations and maintaining the reputation of subversion

Perhaps you are the moron.

>random nonsensical shit
There's nothing random or nonsensical. But your point was that subersion is bad, in any case, which the show was doing the entire time.
>Subverting expectations of generics fantasy shit based on logical outcomes and character motivations =/= Subverting expectations for the sake of subverting expectations and maintaining the reputation of subversion
It's only "subversion for the sake of subversion" because you say so, right?

I remember DnD saying that GRRM gave them an outline of how the series is supposed to end in case anything happened to him.
i find it hard to believe that this is that ending, this season has just been so braindead compared to everything that came before.

GoT is a deconstruction of fantasy, adding a sort of logical reality to its situations instead of everything being fairy dust and magic bullshit. That doesn't mean it was built on subversion though you fucking moron.

>was both deeply confused and concerned at the same time
Please do tell us how Arya killing the Night King makes any sense, the whole class is dying to hear.

>GoT is a deconstruction of fantasy, adding a sort of logical reality to its situations instead of everything being fairy dust and magic bullshit. That doesn't mean it was built on subversion though you fucking moron.
Ok, mince words all you want, the show was subversive from the start, so why get butthurt about it now?

>Please do tell us how Arya killing the Night King makes any sense, the whole class is dying to hear.
She got the drop on him and had a Valyrian dagger, makes perfect sense. I'm not commenting on the quality of said plot development, but it makes sense.

I wonder if Arya had a loicence for that knife? Someone should really send the bobbies to look into that.

>She got the drop on him and had a Valyrian dagger

So she got the drop on him...by walking past all of the wights surrounding the courtyard and all of the White Walkers behind NK? When it has been shown she has trouble evading a few in the library because they have excellent hearing. So she used a Valyrian dagger despite it being established that Dragonglass and Valyrian steel gain their power to kill them based on being made from dragon's flame which was just shown to be completely ineffective?

Yeah, no that is some bullshit.

It nakes sense that she got the drop on a guy with telepathic sense to all his zombie army? Non of the white generals noticed her and she just leaped in from literally nowhere? That her neck is perfectly fine where the NK held her but Bran was touched in a dream and scarred for life?

This is in a long line of shit that doesnt make sense like how Dany "forgot about the iron fleet" and Cersei not killing them at kings landing.

Attached: 1557456281636.jpg (225x274, 43K)

>She got the drop on him
Explain how. She was screaming as she jumped in the air behind him. I'm not opposed to the idea of Arya killing Darth Maul, but at least have her fucking sneak up on him somehow.

She will die before sitting on the throne if she waits, and the kingdom is in shambles after the wars so crusiing in with dragons should have been a done deal. It really would have if she went straight for KL with those dragons and torched the place.

D&D wanted a somewhat even battle between Cersei and Dany, but the problem is Cersei and her forces are weak as fuck with almost no named characters in the ranks leading or fighting for her and Dany has the entire cast basically and 3 dragons. They had to give retarded reasons for why Dany could do this, but D&D forgot Cersei did tons of bad shit and the people don't care

do you know what subversion means? Subversion would be killing off a character set up to be the protagonist (ned early on), but not everything shocking happening or every death is a subversion, the nature of a deconstruction is that surely there will be subversions but lol if you think the entire thing is subversion

>She has 3 full-grown dragons
>My dragons are full grown
>Against full grown dragons
But even though everyone thought and said that the dragons were mature, it turns out that they weren't! Really subverted my expectations.

>D&D wanted a somewhat even battle between Cersei and Dany, but the problem is Cersei and her forces are weak as fuck with almost no named characters
No, the problem is that they thought a battle between Cersei and Dany made any sense at all. Cersei should have been roasted alive in season 7, and any Westeros-based conflict should have come from the people and the lords of Westeros, who wouldn't be happy that the Mad King's daughter showed up and torched King's Landing along with a bunch of high-level lords, and then stuck the imp everyone hates on Casterly Rock.

Arya killing him should have happened when Theon did his charge, but it would be less anti-climactic. Don't do the Theon charge, and let Arya be stealthy in the tree, and both of them attack at the same time without Theon knowing Arya was up there

you just noticed that?

>So she used a Valyrian dagger despite it being established that Dragonglass and Valyrian steel gain their power to kill them based on being made from dragon's flame which was just shown to be completely ineffective?
I don't think it's ever established how Valyrian steel is actually made, only some brief mentions of "spells/Magic", maybe dragon fire is used, but it's not the only component
>It nakes sense that she got the drop on a guy with telepathic sense to all his zombie army? Non of the white generals noticed her and she just leaped in from literally nowhere? That her neck is perfectly fine where the NK held her but Bran was touched in a dream and scarred for life?
The generals DID notice her, did you miss the part where he turned around when she went in for the kill? There's a shot of a general turning his gaze. I thought this was very obvious.
>do you know what subversion means?

So it's bad subversion, because it was "just put in there to be subversive", because you said so?

Winter literally took 12 hours. The Long Night was actually just a night.

The production design remains top notch.
Pity about the writing.

That is their fault for not showing the regions much. New Dornish prince? What the fuck is happening over there? Who is the lord of the Reach? Is Robin Arryn even holding power in the Vale?

>Got the drop on him
He was literally completely surrounded. She teleported behind him

No they didnt. The dothraki all died in the charge and most of the unsullied died holding the retreat.

>He was literally completely surrounded. She teleported behind him
She ran up to him, slipping past his generals before they could do anything. They did see her though, there's a shot of one of them turning their gaze

Holy shit this guy is retarded

He's taking the piss.

requesting the copypasta where a random user takes Maisie on a date and she acts like a horrid chav.

No, he turned his gaze at wind that moved his hair because she used her Sonic abilities. It was fucking retarded.

>No, he turned his gaze at wind that moved his hair because she used her Sonic abilities. It was fucking retarded.
You think it was reasonable for them to react at super human speed? By the time they noticed she was there, she was too far past the ring of generals for them to do anything about it.

Yeah, I would expect that. They're white walkers, like the king, who has that ability.

>Yeah, I would expect that. They're white walkers, like the king, who has that ability.
Then by that extension, the WW that Jon killed in Hardhome would have wrecked him. The generals at the last seem to have typical reaction times

Are you using your brain or is it just acting retarded?

>maybe dragon fire is used, but it's not the only component

So Arya figured out that her dagger had the exact right magic to slay the NK ...how?

>did you miss the part where he turned around when she went in for the kill?

Did you miss the part where I was talking about the dozens of meters between her and the NK where she went completely unnoticed and literally appeared from thin air before anyone noticed her despite it being established that sneaking past a handful of basic zombies was incredibly difficult?

>So Arya figured out that her dagger had the exact right magic to slay the NK ...how?
What else is she gonna do? Give up and walk away? She's gonna try something considering he's about to win.
>Did you miss the part where I was talking about the dozens of meters between her and the NK where she went completely unnoticed and literally appeared from thin air before anyone noticed her despite it being established that sneaking past a handful of basic zombies was incredibly difficult?
But the WW around the NK did notice her, that's why he turned around to begin with. By the time the generals noticed her, she was too far away from them to do anything.

I think you're fucking with us now so this will be my last (you) for your level of stupidity:

>What else is she gonna do? Give up and walk away? She's gonna try something considering he's about to win.
How about help Jon get free so they can both face the NK? How about anything less stupid than gambling on a plan that has zero percent chance to work in anything not written specifically with Mary Sue bullshit for it to work flawlessly?

>By the time the generals noticed her, she was too far away from them to do anything.

That is the crux of the matter you half-wit, she has leagues and leagues of zombies to sneak past to execute the attack she did, which makes zero sense as it has been established that sneaking past less than a dozen is a feat of skill that she barely achieves by the skin of her teeth. The clearest analogy I can draw for your tiny brain is that if you just saw someone struggle to lift 100 lbs. then they lift 1,000 lbs. with their pinky finger 5 minutes later, that is what Arya did when comparing the Library scene with with attack on the NK.

>That is the crux of the matter you half-wit, she has leagues and leagues of zombies to sneak past to execute the attack she did, which makes zero sense as it has been established that sneaking past less than a dozen is a feat of skill that she barely achieves by the skin of her teeth.
We don't know this. We don't know how many zombies she needed to sneak past

And the only reason why she had any trouble to start was because she lost confidence after getting hit in the head
