    That really was a waste of a 3rd to last episode in my opinion. A lot of fan service (Brienne & Jamie, really!?).

    And cannot agree more on them being snuck up on... really starting to feel bad for these dragons.

    So much negativity . . . you're harshing my buzz!

    I don't need to go total nerd-out and pick apart battle tactics and plot faults when there are dragons involved (s'all just make-believe middle-earth fantasy bollocks for a little escapism from real life at the end of the day) . . . and apart from Cersei's half-assed haircut, I kinda dug it.

    But as a great man once said, 'We are all welcome to our own forms of criticism'. :lol:

    Exactly. And you are welcome to skip over any of it at your own whim and fancy. ;)

    It would also be a pretty boring world if everyone agreed on everyone, all of the time.

    Also, since I am here again, I sort of have to post this:



    PS - Now that is some set dressing. :razz:

    Yes, exactly. That series started incredibly well but after the first few books it gradually became obvious the author was trying to stretch it out. It became a shadow of its former self, by the end.

    Yeah, seriously. That dog wanted just a little love, he's covered in wounds, you're sending him away and all you do is nod at the dog? WTF? Leave Cersci on the throne.

    I think Brans special power is showing people that a life being stoned isn't that appealing.

    Since all the crossbows were at the front of the ships and all the ships were facing the same direction, why didn't she just fly behind them and burn them all?

    Because that would make sense. And the new rule of the show is "don't do anything that makes sense".

    Too many gripes with last night's ep to list.
    Even with the show coming off the rails in these last seasons, was not prepared for just how spectacularly the showrunners would run it into the ground.

    So bad it literally felt insulting to watch.

    For posterity:

    It is so rushed. I'm not sure what the rationale was to keep it at 6 episodes when they could have done 10.

    Read that HBO offered more episodes as well as more cgi money, but Dumb & Dumber turned it down.

    Funny how they had Daenerys do the exact same thing they had Ellaria Sand do. Completely change character, and go on a murder spree killing the exact people you swore to protect before.

    Jon had that look on his face like, I fucked my Aunt and she's CRAY..

    Horrible writing with how Sersi and Jaime met their fates.

    Wonder how many 8 balls of shitty Coke they blew through coming up with that GARBAGE.

    Talk about uneventful..

    If there one thing that irks me to no end is Euron's random washing ashore (thought he was dead, WTF!) as Jaime made his way down there for a random fight that proved meaningless. Or the fact that he wouldn't have made it half way up those stairs before bleeding out considering the severity of his wounds.

    But I digress, back to the Mad Queen!
