Game of Thrones season 8

Sansa has been complaining about Dany and insinuating that Jon shouldn't have given up his crown for her. The fact is that Jon did the correct thing. They would never win this war without those 2 huge armies that Dany commands. Fact is that you fanboys can't stay objective about anything.

Correct. And Sansa fanboys are terrible people who laud even the normal things that she does. So Jon made her the lady of Winterfell and went to seek allies. Then who in the whole world is supposed to worry about the amount of food provisions they have remaining? of course Sansa because that's the job that Jon gave her. I have not heard of people being praised for doing exactly what they are supposed to do. In the minds of lunatic Sansa fans the food problem is only being managed because of Sansa. Do they believe that Jon should immediately enquire abut pantry provisions minutes after coming from a journey in which he had a close brush with death? Lol......And they think that Sansa will eventually become the queen of 7 kingdoms. It will be funny when that doesn't come to happen in a few weeks time.

Lots of filler. I’m getting final season of Lost flashbacks.

Hmm well I'm awful with a lot of these characters names so I'm sure I'll forget some.

No Longer Care For:
Danys (It's been at least a couple seasons now) - I just really hate this narrative that every man who encounters her just instantly falls in love with her. It's now seeming like Tyrion is in that same category now. 

Jon - He is hit or miss per season it seems. Hated him til shit started happening at The Wall. Liked him when he came back to life. Stopped caring for him when he started hanging out with Dany. I'm maybe getting back into his now he knows his heritage.

Tyrion - Used to be my favorite. But once he left Kings Landing he was no longer as fun of a character. He is another character that once they connected with Dany they became far less interesting to me.

Jorah - I liked him for a long time even when he was around Danys. However for whatever reason idk I just no longer give a shit.

Arya - This one is a bit harsh because I do like her. Yet she's like Jon, it's hit or miss so much at times. Atm? Haven't really cared about her since she's returned to Winterfell.



Never Cared For:
Sansa - Hated her since season one and have wanted her to die ever since.

Brienne - She's just a 'meh' character for me. Don't hate her or like her. She's just there. I hope Tormund gets to hook up with her at least once I guess for his sake since I like him a lot.

One Eyed Dude - Don't know his name but the guy who has been brought back to life like 18 times. Just like Brienne, just don't care.

Sam - I've never cared for him but I will say he did a great job in last weeks episode. But I just don't have any interest in him or Gilly.

Bran - Never cared for his storyline and even now I just hate him more. 

Any Greyjoy That's Not The Pirate - Never liked any of them. The pirate dude with Cersei though is a lot of fun.



They are the ones that come to mind atm.

Currently characters I like are Jaime, The Hound, Davos, Bronn, Varys, Tormund.

Wow, thanks for taking the time to write all that, but I just don't understand why you would watch a show where you only care about 1 main character (Jaime).

And the hound's arc has put him constantly in the company of people who's story you don't care for or who you don't care for (brienne, sansa, Arya, beric)

But that being said, I understand completely why you haven't looked the first two episodes.

I for one thought it was a terrific episode. Big battles and action scenes don't mean anything without heart and emotional stakes behind them. These were some of the most long-awaited interactions and character moments yet, and they paid off. The table is set; now we head to the battle next week. It would just be superficial if it were six straight episodes of fighting. Maybe that's what the masses want, I don't know. But the idea of spending one last night together with characters that we've waited years to see all in one place is a great one for me. These are not just action figures fighting dragons and zombies. Episodes like this make the characters feel like living, breathing people; wholly necessary to portray when we're approaching a final end all battle between the living and the dead.

You and sdm nailed it.

Both episodes were better then the rushed 7th season, but for this chamber play like setting they needed nearly two years? Yes, the great battle ahead (albeit they justified it with the complex winter landscape and that they had to wait for winter, not with the battle itself)
I'm also looking not forward to the battle, because often they just become a tedious mess. They can be good (Helms Clam), but also a mess (Minas Tirith or Battle of the five armies).

Normally, the army of the death wouldn't stand a chance, if it wasn't for Jon Snow and Tyrion Lannister. If the battle field had been properly prepared, then their Achilles heel, that they are literally walking torches, would by their ultimate demise. We know how much the revived deaths are vulnerable to fire, and also, how devastating the dragons were at the fields of fire back in the day, when their fire was combined with a ground that had stuff to burn. They have no wheat fields, but they could use wildfire or something similar to lit not only the trench, but the entire battle field when the army of the death is marching over it.

Not much drama, but using the very weakness of an enemy led to great victories in the past: the phalanx, the long bow etc. pp.

This bad writing makes the entire battle next to useless for me. The battle in "Spoils of War" worked because the Lannister were taken by surprise and Jamie did what was possible. This battle, however, will be a waste of opportunities against any common sense, most frustrating and cringe-worthy. This is, what I expect from it.


Winterfell is meant to fall, and the actual battle takes place around King's Landing. Maybe Qyburn is allowed to use his brain.

Stannis' fleet was beaten by jamming it with a giant chain and letting wildfire do the rest.




And it was awesome to watch...and they didn't need two years for it and they had a far smaller budget for more episodes.


This episode was good, Sansa's part were the ones I liked the most: The scene with Jamie and Brienne, trusting her thus paving for way for Jamie. How she reacted on Theon, or how she cut Dany's SJW-bullshit: we are both women in a men's world who made it against all odds, what makes us to sister now. And she also considers herself as a good ruler. But while she rules with fear, terror and blackmailing: kneel or die screaming by being burned alive, the likes of Theon voluntarily ask to fight for Sansa, because they believe in her.

This contrast between her style of rule (which she was praising) and the style Sansa rules: from the moment how she was dealing the affairs with Lord Royce (professional, calm and with mutual respect) to Theon: the compassion for and the believe in her as ruler.

This contrast might be the mentioned setting for the Mad Queen, who will do the right thing in the very last moment...maybe.

I guess she feels threatened by both, and is also envious of both: Jon and Sansa.

And btw: Sansa was calling her "your grace" from day one.
