We can agree to disagree on this, or maybe I wasn't making myself clear re: my previous post.
I.e., if I had read the novels prior to seeing GOT, I would have already known about a lot of key plot points, i.e. The Red Wedding, Geoffrey's death, etc. - yes, the details would probably have been...
Obviously, there are a lot of GOT fans who never read the books - and I'm one of them. In my case - I never plan on reading them. I myself became a fan of the show only because of the positive "buzz" that I started to hear around mid-2012, well before it got "huge". I intentionally passed on...
Good question. At some point (offscreen) between Episodes 05 & 06, Arya got off the white horse & it disappeared, but no explanation was given re: why this happened.
EP06 of GOT was fantastic, and a great way to wrap up the series. I have had 0 issues with S08 (or any previous season), and felt that the finale in particular was very emotional & intentionally understated.
The early scene with Dany speaking to the hordes of Dothraki about taking over the...
Re: Dany's "turn", if that's what you want to call it:
Though this was obviously brutal & unforgiving, I'm 100% fine with this - and though it was jarring & unexpected at first, when going back & re-watching that scene over again - it does make perfect sense within the context of the story &...
You all could be right. I'm definitely not making any excuses for Dany whatsoever. By killing innocents & destroying the city, she went past the point of no return - and did far worse than anything Cersei had ever done. Any good that Dany had done in the past was rendered irrelevant by her...
Glad this excellent series is generating so much discussion. It will be too bad to see it over soon, but all good things come to an end. And, I have such a back-log of other shows/movies I want to watch it will be nice to be finished with this show - until the inevitable re-watch ;)
If it...
I feel that the actions of the characters in S08, EP05 of GOT made perfect sense in the context of the story:
- Dany has a lot of rage that's been built up over a while, and IMHO she went past the point of no return when Cersei murdered Missandei in EP04. So, while I find her EP05 actions in...
Not sure why there was such a backlash of last week's episode of GOT. Some people are impossible to please. As an uberfan of the show, I honestly felt it was the best episode of the entire series, so far. Essentially, it was the culmination of everything we've seen so far in the show - up to...
This is my first post on this thread. I've been a huge GOT fan since I caught up with the first two seasons in late 2012 (several months before S03 premiered). I have not read the books, nor do I ever plan on doing so. I want to be genuinely surprised when watching the show, and didn't want...
