You heard me right, Khaleesi. Put all of the Dothraki at the front of the army, every single one we have. It might seem like suicide, but I assure you. their arakhs are good enough weapons. I'll lead their charge into the undead horde myself. They shall stop the dead, or die trying.
>Jorah looks directly at the camera
There is a danger to Westeros far greater than the White Walkers or the dead men, and we have a responsibility to protect our lands from those that would ruin them. The knights of old called it "The Andal's Burden." Myself, I just call it as I see it: the responsibility of the Westerosi to protect their people. After the battle is over, we cannot allow foreign savages to sow disorder and fear. The Dothraki have always been rapists, thieves, pillagers, murderers... It's our responsibility to civilize them. Alas, we cannot, and so they shall fall in battle or dangle from the weirwood tree. I will see every single Dothraki in this army dead by sunrise, and may the wights tear me to pieces this very night if I'm wrong.

He did. He had a falling out with them after the purple wedding (the last script he wrote for them). He wanted to establish a bunch of plot lines for later episodes in S4, but D&D scrapped them because then they wouldn't be able to subvert our expectations.

Are you actually implying that there aren't any people watching at this point just to see how much more laughably bad it'll get?

>Euron didn't react to Tyrion talking about Cersei being pregnant because he wasn't paying attention

It would be nice if the show did anything to explain its version of the Golden Company
If they cared about Targ shits just because of the shared history, or at least wanted one dragon, or really anything that would give Cersei a reason not to fire on Drogon instantly

d&d don't care. they wanted red wedding. they got it. everything after that is just them doing chores.

I dunno man it's all retarded, the best possible outcome tomorrow is anything other than the increasingly horrific leaks we've been getting

that part seems likely considering she almost died w/o a sword last time. still doesn't lend much credence to those leaks considering the poster "got C&D'd by HBO" without any proof

I'm not implying anything. I just read that image and I have tried to wrap my mind around previous leaks and felt like so many things were missing from them which is the reason I did not believe the finale leaks. But that fills those gaps.

Euron will probably confront Cersei about it, reason why Jaime and him will fight later on and will kill/deal a mortal wound to each other.

Why did they drop OG Mountain? They looked like actual brothers back then.

Martin, on the other hand, wanted us to see this:

>Images flash by, one after another; distant places and different times, familiar faces and faces of strangers.

>Two children, a boy and a girl, fight with wooden swords in Winterfell’s godswood. (Benjen and Lyanna as kids).

>Robb sits drenched in blood amidst the carnage of the Red Wedding, surrounded by the dead. His dead face slowly transforms into Grey Wind’s wolfish features.

>Jaime and Cersei embrace in Winterfell’s old keep (the last thing Bran saw before he fell, from the pilot).

>A black direwolf with green eyes (SHAGGYDOG) looks up suddenly from a bloody kill, as if he sense Bran.

>Hints of strange small children with very dark eyes.

What a bunch of pricks.

If it doesn't end with Sansa joining the weirwood network then D&D can fuck off.

He bailed for The Hobbit if I recall correctly.

I hope so and supposedly new leaks confirm it. It's still a very stupid thing to say in an interview.

Conan Stevens was at a crossroads which part to take (I don't remember whats the other one) he chose the other one instead of filming as the Mountain in S02.

what was the moment you think the show lost what it was? For me it was when Arya got stabbed in the stomach multiple times, had the dagger get twisted, fell into a dirty canal, and survived by sleeping it off for a couple days.

say what in an interview?

he was a CGI orc in the Hobbit

Then that should be at least mentioned or better yet shown before the scene, because otherwise it just looks like Cersei decided to change her entire character for a day

I thought "The Night's King" was a better name, as small of a change as it is. I think it gave him less autonomy, like he is merely a vehicle for the Long Night. The less reasonable and emotional, the better, just a force of nature, nothing more. Though him smirking was fucking hilarious.

It's worse than that. She didn't sleep it off a couple days, she napped it off one afternoon, and then the wound opened back up during the chase, and then it's never spoken of again after that.

The Stannis arc was annoying me, but I knew it was game over with the "20 good men" and "the mercenaries left overnight". Can you imagine 6000 thousands soldiers and their horses leaving overnight without anyone noticing until the next day?

He probably read the script that all the Mountain does in S02 was talk and stay in Harrenhal and he'd rather fight in front of a green screen than memorize his lines.

You can see all of them just waiting to get this shit over with.

Like Season 5. The show was always building towards the Red Wedding for the show runners, and season 4 they were still riding high but you could see cracks appear
Then Season 5 was just a mess of them realizing none of the changes they made to the show were liked, all the praise they got had nothing to do with their writing but instead of an adaption
Then it seems they just got tired of it and made one last full season

the meme answer. The actually moment was obviously Yara noping out after facing shirtless Ramsay and the dogs. It showed that D&D weren't in control of the storylines anymore and they were willing to turn characters into cartoons in an attempt to deflect from that.

It's just that the scene itself is buried in S4 which otherwise was still really great. It wasn't until S5 that the show got so bad that normies and people who aren't cynical could say "yeah, the show isn't as good now"

>so he had a choice to kill his career or kill his career?
>what kind of choice even was that
It was not a foregone conclusion once S1 was done that the show was going to be a hit, especially after Rome. I mean, most people consider movies a step up from TV, and in this case he would be taking on something that was coming on the heels of a -proven- success as opposed to sticking with a show that could very easily be canceled. It was a mistake, but not one made for completely stupid reasons. Still, I think if it were me I would feel obligated to stay, because i'm a stupid goy and I wouldn't want to put them in the position of having to recast my role.

GRRM's not releasing shit. Why would he? He'll go to his grave content that fans like you still think he could've ended the series better than D&D

Jamie tells Cersei he is only there for his baby. When she tells him it was a lie, he attempts to kill her and they fall to their deaths reminding us of Bran's fall as the building crumbles.

What's the point of GRRM's ideas anyway? He's going to die and ASOIAF by DnD is going to be canon.

I sometimes forget that people like this exist.

Wow so this was actually pretty clever foreshadowing.

There's no way to complete Jaime's arc anyway. DnD is in the same spot where GRRM is that's why the fat fuck had a hardtime finishing the books.

You guys are retards, he's doing the idle animations from Crash Bandicoot.

They wanted to wrap it up for the mouse, but if got ends like the leaks say, they wont have a job with the mouse anymore. was a bad move just for some old republic movies.

Should have just fired D&D hacks and replaced them with competent producers and writers, not only would there be probably more GoT seasons, but it would be better and crew would not be demoralized like they are now.

They haven't given a shit for a couple of seasons now, ofcourse HBO wants the show to continue.
Ratings are only getting better even though the show is total shit now because normies fucking love this crap.

>tyrion getting knocked out before battle

To be fair I always assumed it was just a way to cut down on production costs (even though it happens in the books as well).

>>tyrion getting knocked out before battle
Oh come on, that was clearly a budget decision and frankly that battle was really badly written by GRRM.

You're right though, season 2 was where it started to go to shit and it was a bad season outside of Blackwater and Theon.

The problem is that Jon Snow is taking over Jaime's arc at this point. Jaime should be putting down Mad Queen Cersei but instead we got this.

pretty sure the cast wanted to be done with it too honestly, this shit has been going on for damn near a decade and most of them probably have new projects in the wings (or just want to fuck off and spend the rest of their lives in swimming pools filled with cash)

The actual leaks endings are not terrible but it is being executed BAD. They forced themselves to finish in 6 episodes when it should have been 2 seasons. They are throwing away all logic to force a quick ending instead of using the same ending but taking their time to get there. The complete character of show itself has changed just to get it over with so they can start on Star Wars

Jon taking the black is absolutely retarded. Bran as king with Bronn on the small council is absolutely retarded.

What the fuck was the point of the show? What was accomplished? Yeah the NK was beaten but he would have never got beyond the wall at all without Jon being a fucking moron. The show feels like a complete waste of time.

Zombies are popular

so they were just lazy huh?

What happened i must have missed it

i have stannis on the mind

It was to unite the warring factions of Westeros against a common thr- oh wait Cersei completely got away with not joining the grand alliance

They should have made them huge like they are in the books. The dogs they used in S1 were fine.

Tyrion is a midget in a chaotic battle, him getting knocked out by his side is not that retarded. Robb falling for Talisa was a poorly dumb romance, but it did not include a scene that just strained the logic on what could have possibly happened. Maybe if Robb raped Talisa or impregnated her by anal sex would it be as baffling as the shirtless Ramsay scene. White Walkers make strange decisions, in hind sight there is no good reason but at the time one could think there was. The wise masters were fucked the second they stupidly got so close to Drogon, and any sizeable number of unsullied Dany got would have essentially led to the same result because she would always have a large organized army after burning the leaders alive.

>The show had a lot of retarded moments before the shirtless ramsay scene
You're missing the point. When you point to a first definitely bad moment that represents the show changing for the worse, you're not saying that there weren't any objectively bad scenes prior to that and in retrospect. You're saying that this was the first scene that broke your suspension of disbelief. When I did a rewatch leading up to S8, I noticed all kinds of bad scenes I didn't notice before because now i'm looking at it with cynical eyes. Greatjon Umber getting his fingers bitten off and then quipping in S1 was a terrible scene, but its lameness complely went over my head at the time and that's a good thing. You wouldnt enjoy anything ever if you were totally hyper-focused on finding the flaws.

>Jon taking the black

according to leaks earlier today, these are not true. Jon goes north to be with dany and bran simply works with the group of houses (democracy) to prevent sneaky shit. There is not a actual throne anymore. All the main houses will get together and vote on shit.

Is HBO just begging for more episode?

Can't they just ask for more money? Isn't HBO sucking their dicks for more seasons?

Remember when not wanting to rule was a huge hindrance?

The scene was quite similar in the books if I remember correctly. It's about the living form of the direwolf of the Stark sigil bringing him down to heel.

That's fucking retarded.

What the fuck do you think democracy is? None of the leaks have anything to do with establishing a democracy. Bran is pulling some 1984 shit and we're supposed to cheer because he's a Stark.

That's still very stupid.

i'm pretty sure he's completely turned against cersei in the books, or at least wants no part of her

>Publicly, Martin has said that he stopped writing for Game of Thrones in order to focus on completing the next, long-anticipated book in his A Song of Ice and Fire series, The Winds of Winter: “Writing a script takes me three weeks, minimum, and longer when it is not a straight adaptation from the novels. Writing a season six script would cost me a month’s work on WINDS, and maybe as much as six weeks, and I cannot afford that,” he wrote in 2015.

The writers gave up everything for subversion that makes some sort of vague sense maybe in hindsight. Iron throne branno fits that pattern

One thing Gurm could take from the shitty Essos show plot is just to have Dany abandon the whole damn thing and move towards Westeros, that's already a few chapters less he has to write.

>The scene was quite similar in the books if I remember correctly
I don't remember it but i don't doubt. "Mayhaps" have been even more over-the-top. But a lot of things in the books were never going to adapt well and the show used to understand that. In fact, dragonriding is really really really really really really stupid looking on screen and it's not going to start looking better as the show ages and the hype vanishes. I think they suspected that early on, too, which is why Tyrion made the saddle for Bran. They were foreshadowing him making a harness for the dragons.

I think what it means is there is one country and different states if you want to think of it that way. states can still make their own rules but there are still rules for the kingdom as a hole. i dont know, just assuming

>Insane human fortresses
>Impossible natural barriers for huge chunks of it
>Is the size of a continent
>Can assemble large well organized armies

But Bobby liked being a king and having all the wine, whores and boars he wanted, he just didnt enjoy boring things like ruling the kingdom

Depends when they attack. Before season 1 no, after season 6 effortlessly, in between it could go either way.

Why did they change the Mountain's armor? It was fucking fine in season 6.

They literally state multiple times that he did not in fact like being king, he just liked the fun bullshit elements of it.

Tell me how Bran being a super computer AI think straight out of Minority Report is a good ending.

Bobby could have basically the same as lord of the stormlands
And all the wine, whores, and boars were just to fill a huge hole he felt within himself

Greatjon pulls out his fucking knife like a retard and Grey Wind bites his hand, if I remember right. Its pretty great since its a reminder that people aren't taking Robb seriously as king and that he needs to act decisively. Following this he gives the vanguard to Roose Bolton because of his intimidating stature.

DABID is correct. it's just horribly presented. Jaime is still addicted to Cersei in the books, he's literally like a drug addict suffering fro withdrawals. Breaking down and going back to her even if he's grown to hate her is something he would do. I think the next chapter after he burns her letter he talks about how much he'd like to go back to her, or something. The writing just isn't there to back it up, that's why the ending of the show will be nothing like the ending to the books. The motivations of most of the characters are butchered. What does it matter the end point if it's a non-sequitur from what the story was leading up to.

Literally every character but Dany now is wearing black. Its so fucking lame.

REMEMBER WHEN THE SHOW HAD COLOR

>that's why the ending of the show will be nothing like the ending to the books
I'm pretty sure the main reason the ending of the show will be nothing like the ending to the books is that we will actually get one.

>Jaime is still addicted to Cersei in the books
Did you stop reading after book 3 or what.

How would you guys save the last 2 chapters?

Just like DnD

Bran as the surprise villain. Other than that its too late and everything is too fucked.

even Kings Landing is just some drab brown generic medieval fantasy town now. There aren't even trees there anymore.

I agree with you on Bran, but wanting to be a king does not always mean wanting to actually rule. Robert really wanted the crown and didnt hesitate to kill to keep it because he liked the perks of the title, the ruling part was left to his Hand and the council because thats not what Robert wanted to ever do anyway.

Remember when Jaime raped Cersei? That was pretty beautiful.

Not full body plate armor. They did not have castles and that is besides the point since they would be attacking not defending. Yes I have seen Northern Italy not everything in it is Roman built. And yes the biggest point I would give them is military organization, but they would be fighting also well organized armies with better armor, probably more men, who are in a defensive position, and with weapons that are better if not magically better. All of this with no foot hold and ships that were really garbage because Rome never went fully into ships

They literally built one every day's march

Does he snipe her out of the air with a scorpion bolt?

Very likely, I don't know how or why she would burn otherwise.

no one talk about GoT at work so don't need to

Probably to resurrect Jon

Logistically, it's hard to imagine Stannis being able to do so. Selyse, Melisandre and Shireen are at the Wall and Stannis is near Winterfell with some nasty snowstorm. I just can't imagine Shireen getting there or Stannis going back to Castleblack. I also don't see him sending a letter say "burn my daughter".

And people still think television has any merit.

No, most likely Selyse and Axell Florent

Make the dead army wash over the entirety of westeros. All of the main characters eventually die, leaving a final showdown between jon and the NK in front of the throne. Snow falling through the broken ceiling, like in dany's vision.
Nk approaches smiling, knowing hes already won, even if jon kills him. Jon kills him and sits on the throne to catch his breath. Slow zoom out. 10 minute sequence to recap all the locations from past seasons in dead silence.

Unfortunately its too late to have that.

Once again this is like saying them having armor with a little plate are the same as having full plate armor. They obviously had military fortresses, but Romans did not build medieval style castles unless it was along a really bad border. This is not to say they couldn't, they could. They simply didn't because they liked their style better. However none of it matters still because they are attacking the castles which still makes there job insanely more difficult

Also, I'm waiting for Blackfyre realizing that he is in command of the greatest military force in westeros right now and use this advantage to take the fucking throne

you know what i really liked about 1st seasons? How everyone dressed in difrrent clothes made of diffrent materials and of diffrent colors. And when they saw someone wearing something unusual they'd point it out. Like how Sansa was surprised seeing Cersei's dress in 1st episode or when Cersei gave shit to Margary for her skimpy outfit.

I literally mentioned that page in my the post you replied to.

Anyway, you faggots made me pull out my books. Jaime literally says that a part of him calls out to go to Cersei still. First Jaime chapter a Dance with Dragons. He hasn't quit her cold turkey, he is still conflicted and his character could easily go where DABID has lead him, but as I said, it makes little sense in the show since the writing isn't there.

Did Qyburn give him a sharingan eye?

Missed you mentioned it. I need to re-read the books, the show has made me forget or confuse things on whether they are show-only or also in the books.

>Rome didn't have castles

No shit you fucking retard.

Castles by definition are from AFTER Rome fell you retarded nigger

np, I had just re-read the books so that shit is fresh on my dome.

Book fanboy are in denial.

The same people pretending D&D wrote everything are hoping GRRM rewrite his last books to change the shitty ending, which is even a worse idea if you think about it, it's best to have a shitty ending than no ending at all.

THEY CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

there are hundreds of people standing there, dude, at least. You don't get to "decide" if you did or did not do this highly-controversial dastardly deed. There will be countless sellswords scrambling over themselves to assuage their guilt and restore their personal honor by ratting the rest of you out. You're basically taking one aphorism "history is written by the winners" and mis-applying it to human nature. People talk. In fact, the show just (stupidly) illustrated that fact.

While logical, you're essentially citing headcanon for the "golden company need to keep their reputation" thing. It isn't your job to cover up the numerous lapses of logic in the show, it's the writers job to make it logical and convey these things clearly to the audience. The real answer is that the writers didn't think about it and hope you wouldn't either.

Yeah, i'm just trying to lampshade a patently stupid scene, but it is what is is and after episode 4 I'm kind of hyped to try and enjoy the next few episodes as much as I can so whatever.

I'm the same boat desu, I'm not a show hater by any means and I really do hope it ends strongly. I'm pretty sure that I won't be satisfied by the current course of things. I don't think anything short of "night king is still alive" or "LF faked his death" could leave me satisfied though. Good night, bud. I'll be waiting to shitpost with you after the episode airs.

Yup. Definitely going dark for the 12-hours before it premiers. Hoping for the best. cheers
