@T-K-G you're tripping breh.


Let it play out before the criticism.

 

[Peter Parker]

so who's going to start the pious queen Cersei movement for next season

Was tryna start the movement but these nikkas out here still up on that "Set wars" bullshyt

 

[duck]

dese muthafukkas

all of this shyt for NO reason no way in hell they dont send arya to braavos so what's the point of all of this


so what, brienna kills the hound and arya takes off cuz they say they're from king's landing or some bullshyt we coulda already been in braavos right now playin word games with The Waif

fukk GRRM for cosigning this fukkery

Dont count bravos out yet. This season they added bravos to the map in the shows intro, and the only appearance of that place was when stannis dealt with the iron bank. I doubt they'd add it to the map over 1 little scene

im not counting braavos out i just want an explanation for why they deviated so far for no apparent reason atleast with the other changes it was like "well that wasn't NEEDED so it makes sense that they cut it out" but this change is just

All the Arya scenes were dope this year. It was filler, but good filler. You get the House of Black and White next year.

And people knowing Arya alive is meaningless because she will be 'marrying' Ramsey next year so that covers that plot hole

Any chance the show would use Bran and BR to showcase some flashback scenes in seasons 5 and 6?

Tower of Joy, Brynden Rivers pre-tree, history of the Others/Wall, Night's King, The Conquest, etc..

Just watched the episode

I'm convinced that the writers don't like Stannis

They just won't let this nikka shine

But they promoted him to the finale, their 'best episode ever'

 

[Peter Parker]

I dont like how Tormund and Jon Snow dont get along, I remember in the books he kind of distrusted Jon but was always Jolly and happy as shyt with him, they always had like some kind of friendship(he was about to ride out to Winterfell with that nikka) Tormund is kind of a dikk in the show though

I'll see what they do next week but gatdamn

The book had it set up perfectly

I was waiting for Stannis to come through like and it never happened. That would've been some good fukking tv.

Show Stannis taking all these L's, then they take the only legit W he had

 

[Adam3000]

Yeah I'm with you on that, I screamed NOOOOOOOOOOOO like Darth Vader when that credits screen hit

They could have easily fit it if they wanted to. But they obviously didn't want to, they decided to be fanboys and pack their first true season finale to the brim instead. I can't blame them.

The finale is the only episode that was submitted for an Emmy for writing, so they obviously are proud of it

im just glad the gawd lived, but if they combine characters with rattleshirt and kill him off, im gonna . stannis, tormand, and arya are the three ftw characters in my fandom. I fux with that little manderly girl (no ) cause she got fire in her blood, and I give Davos his props, but that's where it stops

The writers actually don't like him at all. If you watch any of the Inside the episode's, they don't find him likable at all and pretty much say he sucks

I feel like TV show watchers won't even really care about Stannis rescuing the realm because the writers completely botched his character. They have not done the character justice at all which is unfortunate.

Stannis is the Mannis

If they're adding scene's and shyt, they might as well add a few scenes of Stannis being a hardass and beheading someone or some kind of shyt
