Daenerys is most likely going to end up dead and John will be king. People will complain about that too.

If they are both alive and they live happily ever after, people will complain about that.

A lot of complaints about episode 3 was that not a lot of people died. People complained about that. Now a dragon dies and people complain about how it died.

People love to complain.

<--- trying to keep in mind that while everyone debates the logic of shooting arrows from a boat, we all seem quite comfy with the idea that a female human can ride a flying dragon without falling off...

10/10

The only bad thing about this show is the horde of whiners

Tudor_A6 May 2019

Remember the first seasons of the show? That time when we used to let ourselves be surprised by it, without any expectations or theories? It was so much more enjoyable. Well, since then, the show has not changed much, but the viewers' attitude towards it sure did!

Now everyone thinks they know best how the story is supposed to go, who deserves to be the hero and who to die and when and how. And if the story doesn't fit their narrow idea about how everything is "supposed" to happen, they hate it... it's such a shame, because this is one of the best shows that we've ever had.

This episode was amazing. As were all, so far. If you want to enjoy this show like you used to, my advice is to stop listening to the haters until the show is over. They really do know how to pick every detail apart to make it seem like a bad show. If they can't enjoy it, that does not mean you shouldn't.

The 10/10 crowd have spoken. A lot more of them to read in the link.

I would think female humans would be even more secure.

They have 2 places where the thorns/scales can hold them in place instead of only 1...

Dragonstone is vacant, just like all the other castles, Including Highgarden and Storm's end, Just a classroom sized group of unsullied and 20 000 mercs The entire Westerlands, Reach, Stormlands, Riverlands, Eyre, wiped out.
Wonder if Sam is the warden of the south now, or would that be Gendry? them, alone, with no bannermen.
at least Dorne still exists. Maybe Dany shouldn't have toasted the entire Westeros.

You put way more though in this than the actual writers and producers

Biggest TV show in the world shouldn't have these petty issues to contend with, especially for an extra 4 episodes.

Disney never had a problem keeping far bigger names together for 10+ years...

It was all on D&D. HBO wanted 10 seasons, GRRM reckons it should have been 13.

So HBO was obviously willing to finance it.

A recap of who went where...

Jon Snow barely said bye to his doggie, hopped on a horse and headed somewhere ?

The hairy scotsman dude got no legover from Brienne so he was going to sod off back to the north ( I thought they were in the north ).

Arya and the Hound are also plodding along on horsies going somewhere

Dragon lady and the unsullied , well one moment lighting funeral pyres and drinking Starbucks in the snow, next minute parked outside a cowboy fort down south

and somewhere else Yara Greyjoy is doing something not sure what

Is that about it, did I leave anyone out ?



Oops, I left someone out.

Mr one hand said wham bam thank you mam, then left in a hurry also going somewhere, probably wondering if his sister will find out he's been shagging other girls.


PS: There's a hell of a lot of rogering going on but we hardly ever see any babies.

Jon and his doggie are psychic, he telepathically said "good boy", and that was the end of the whole warging thing. I think they left characters alive to say byebye for spinoff potential. Can't wait for the medieval version of "two and a half men" starring Tormund Giantsbane, Podrick and Hot Pie.

Likewise, we didn't get to see Missandei captured. One minute she was with Grey Worm, the next minute she's in King's Landing with Cersei. And frankly, as wicked as Cersei is I don't see her just executing a valuable hostage like that

I actually thought Cersei was quite liking to Missandei. Torture would have been the run of mill, then even gave her time to say some last words.

Surprisingly, she let Tyrion live, she HATES him while Missandei is just a thing to use. I mean, she hired to have him killed, it would have been so easy to remove that pain of her life who killed her parents.
