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

[Citi Trends]

cause they had 0 idea the scorpions existed

im sorry what?

is this another "she forgot about the iron fleet"?

she's literally been shot down by a scorpion before

 

[Reece]

They rushed through Mad Queen turn.. building the heel takes time and it could have been done in a more slick way.. they have done this transformation in 2-3 eps.. I imagine if this was written in the book it would have started with whispers in her head, talking to herself etc...another faux pas from the creators this season

I don't think they rushed it at all. I had people close to me die before. I saw red for weeks and went mentally to places that were dark. Cersei killed her best friend breh Dany wanted to murk Cersei off rip but, was held back by Tyrion who's been a terrible hand so far, and because of that Dany had to see her best friend get her head chopped off + everyone plotting against her + her dragons dying + not being the true heir to the Iron Throne + no one appreciating her saving the Kingdom and sacrificing her entire army for them. Blame Cersei. She pushed her over the edge and kept antagonizing her only to bytch up when shyt got hot

She goes from wanting to destroy the institution of slavery to this


Her goal should just been about dropping Cersie.

Just doesn't make any sense.... this should have been about the Night King!

What is Bran doing right now??

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

Dany had the perfect tools to be the bad guy.

Dragons, Unsullied, Dothraki. It was all right in front of us from the beginning.

There's no way these things weren't going to be used for nefarious purposes eventually.

 

[FloorGeneral]

Soooooo, we're all in agreement that Dany gonna die next week, right? Who ya got...

Arya -500
Jon -200
Tyrion +300

GOAT EPISODE i think i have a hard on

Why are you sharing this? Why?

 

[Tasha And]

Nothing indicated a battle between the Hound and the Mountain would occur???

The Hound literally traveled 1000+ miles just to fight him. Said last episode it was the only thing that would make him happy. Y'all got the most ridiculous complaints

But why? To kill a mute, zombie monstrosity that doesn't feel pain? Why would that make him happy? Is it really even revenge to kill the husk of your enemy?

Basically what I'm getting at is there is no thematic resonance to it, and thus the entire sequence felt pointless with zero stakes. It was just an excuse for have Cleganebowl happen with fire and destruction all around them like a Mortal Kombat level. But even just looking at it as pure spectacle revenge fantasy, there was zero build up to it if you look at the Hound and his journey from season 3 onward. Yeah he hates his brother, but when was the last time his ethos was driven by this burning hatred to return to KL and kill his brother? They could have seeded in more fuel the last few seasons to build up to a climatic grudge match. Even one conversation with Arya while on the road to KL could have built some heat and anticipation. But like almost everything else in these shortened seasons, they just treated it like a plot point to check off.

i appreciate targset

dany could shoot 8 babies in the face and they will have a reason for why she had to, why she's still a pure angel, and how its someone else's fault

 

[beanz]

Better than the long night, but that's not saying much.

Next week Arya fails to kill Dany and gets burned for it and Jon kills Dany. That's my prediction. Now let's wrap this shyt up and move on..

 

[Rawtid]

Varys is a coward. He promised her he would tell her when she was failing. He did not.

Nutless, bald, fakkit!! Dracarys hoe!!

 

[ECA]

For my TSC brehs but this is so on point about this show.

 

[Osmosis]

So now that we can finally talk about this...

How can anyone logically defend the direction of this show after this episode?

Dany burns down the entire city because of bells?

Arya arc hijacking Jon but never finishing her own...

Where all you plea copping "bu bu bu bu but in season 1 episode 3 brown eye green eyes blue eyes" fakkits at now?

Arya should have never killed Cersei though.. it was supposed to be Jaime and he didn’t either for whatever reason.

 

[Biscayne]

Boy oh boy, where do I start?

 

[beanz]

Targset your queen mad she got rejected by the one true king and warden of the NORTH. fukk that bytch

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

You know what's truly fukked up about this whole thing?

Bronn ain't getting his damn castle.

Lannisters always pay their debts my ass.
