OFFICIAL Game of Holmes Season 8 Thread - A Dream of Flat Tops 4/14/19

Sure, I can agree with that when it comes to Sansa but what reason does Arya have to hate Dany? She even flat out said they wouldn't have won the war without her help, but she can see Dany unraveling. It's clear as day.

SHES RIDING WITH HER SISTER PERIOD.

REMEMBER THAT FAMILY TALK SHE HAD WITH JON IN EPISODE 1
TALKING SANSA IS THE SMARTEST PERSON SHE KNOWS.

This makes zero sense to me and it really feels like people who have always felt cool towards Daenerys are eager to just accept that she has been descending into madness all series when in actuality she hasn't really done anything that could really be considered even close to crazy or evil.
Honestly all the people who are right now talking about how unfit to lead Dany is are either people who are jealous/don't like her or have been giving her shytty advice the entire time she's been associating with them.
She should have listened to Oleanna and ignored all that other bullshyt.

remember, Dany lost EVERYTHING in a 6 episode span

If Jon had Sam and Edd killed in front of him, 50% of the Night Watch killed and Ghost killed, and started showing hints of anger NOBODY would say "Jon is a Mad King"

He also mentioned in the review that this episode could've been extended to two episodes with the post-war stuff but audiences might lose their patience if there isn't dragon action and plot twists.​

fukk that segment of viewers

 

[goatmane]

I don't get the "they're forcing the mad queen" narrative. This ain't no recent development.

That bytch been crazy. The 13 exposed her way back in qarth. Her whole Arc is based on entitlement

"Mine"

you ain't even from westeros.

so you just gonna ignore season 5 on, when she actively listened to Barristan and Tyrion on how bad how dad was?

shyt forced

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Show Euron sucks but book Euron is the only Greyjoy out there winning battles.. he's a strategic mind. It's a shame that he is viewed more as a dumb ass Pirate on the show because if book Euron captured (not killed because he would rather capture) a dragon.. it would be a big moment.

 

[BlaqkSpliffin]

When you remember that Jamie killed the Mad King and now he's gone back to kill the Mad Queen

 

[Jello Biafra]

That clip says season 7.. I forgot how they killed her. If she was with Dany it should have been impossible for them to kill her.

Tyrion told Dany to go to Casterly Rock because that is where Cersei's armies would be but Jaime took them to Highgarden instead which is where Olenna was defenseless. Yet another example of Tyrion being a shytty advisor to Daenerys.
Olenna went out like a boss though.

 

[South Paw]

Euron, I know you are stupid but please do some simple math. Euron had to know that there is no way this baby is his. He has to know that there is no way Tyrion has heard about it already.


Could have used a better goodbye scene between Ghost and Jon. Ghost deserves better than that


Missandre was a dead woman from the time they fished her out of the water. Way to go out like a loyal badass...


Poor Raeghal, that was nasty




Tyrion, when will you fukking get it? ...Your sister always hate you since you born


Oh Jon. Now everyone knows the secret. I understand why he told his family, but still .... Sansa snitching And then they cheated us of the reaction shot.

Varys had a great quote, "If eight people know, it's no longer a secret, it's information."

Worst. Kept. Secret. Ever


at Torumund seemed to get over Brienne fast after he got some serving girl booty. Went from to .Poor Brienne, but I'm glad both she and Jaime got to be with someone who loved them. I think he's off on an atonement suicide mission. He doesn't feel he deserves better.

And at least we truly know Bronn is a sellsword still, through and through. The Lannister brothers only lived because he's betting on Dany he has no affection toward either of them.





Considering how piss poor the plan to take King's Landing was, Sansa's right. Jon probably is better. Dany's plan was awful from start to finish She's about to turn into his father, the Mad King

Wasn't danys plan. Her advisors are trash

 

[CROM]

MAN STOP IT.

ITS JUST JEALOUS bytchES BEING JEALOUS bytchES.
TYPICAL WOMEN shyt.

THEY DONT SEE shyt OTHER THAN
THIS BROAD fukkING THEIR BROTHER.

AND YALL REALLY NEED TO KILL ALL THE MAD QUEEN TALK
WHEN CERSEI HAS ALREADY SHOWN SHES THE MAD QUEEN.



​

This is what is puzzling me with this entire episode. Matter of fact, this season as a whole. Why play Daenerys as a villain or insecure brat when throughout the course of the series she's freed slaves, liberated countries in Essos, and brought her army and dragons North to battle the dead?? Sure, she's always had an ego and was prone to little fits of anger, but they are making it look like there's nothing good about her. Cersei has ended houses and religious sects. Cersei has killed a King and a Queen. Cersei has no redeemable qualities about her, but Daenerys is the "Mad Queen"?? They seem to literally be writing this stuff for you to hate Daenerys. She's no favorite of mine, but this seems to be quite blatant. The conversation with Tyrion and Varys had me shaking my head. Varys is ready to kill her already?? She hasn't done anything yet!

Matter of fact, all she has done...is listen to their dumbasses!

 

[RiffRaff]

seasons 7/8 have definitely become more spectacle than substance, which is disappointing. i can definitely understand why people are frustrated

They still going to watch though

 

[duck]

This show has continually had characters state that the majority of the fine folks of Westeros aren't down with the incestuous love.

Ned starks parents were cousins breh

Lyarra Stark

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Out of nowhere, but thinking...what are the chances of the southerners rallying around Gendry now that he's a Baratheon? Even if the people grow to hate Cersei, they *still* might prefer a native son over a foreign invader. Dany legitimizing Gendry was such an obvious ally grab (loved the "girl, bye" look on Sansa's face). It would be almost comical to see Dany lose the throne yet again to someone she literally put in front of her for no real reason.

he's still a b*stard by their accounts, so it doesn't matter. they hate cersei, but she has more claim to the throne than he does

 

[HarlemUSA]

Dany better burn them fakkits. fukk all this jibber jabber. Missandei set let thang loose.

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

Ned starks parents were cousins breh

Lyarra Stark

Cousins don't count in this world. Tywin married his cousin yet still disapproved of his kids fukking each other.

Sure, I can agree with that when it comes to Sansa but what reason does Arya have to hate Dany? She even flat out said they wouldn't have won the war without her help, but she can see Dany unraveling. It's clear as day.

Arya doesn't hate her, she just doesn't trust her because she only trusts her family. She said as much in the last episode.
