FalseKnight Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Ive said it over and over. Unsullied do not cry while talking about their life before unsullied. Unsullied do not get distracted by emotions. Unsullied do not fall into a dramatic lovestory with pretty girls. They were raised to kill babies infront of the mothers and fed drugs for years to kill their pain receptors or something ffs, they are basically the closest thing to an actual machine in westeros. The whole point of unsullied is they are just a block of soldiers that do nothing except what you tell them to, I always imagined Dany having to tell them 3 times a day "you have to eat food now." Or "Go relieve yourselves in the bushes", "Its bedtime. Unsullied must go to sleep for 8 hours." All that being said, I do understand why they are doing this for television, and I can understand how it could work for some people. I however find this to be perhaps one of the top 5 worst original tv subplots yet. I'm sorry that the show isn't validating your belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalseKnight Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 The unsullied cuddling in the brothel always struck a cord with me, I found it profoundly moving. Sorry some of you would rather just see more blood and guts. Obviously, TV as a medium, is fundamentally different from novels. They need stuff happening in meereen other than dany and her thoughts.The book needed stuff happening too. Pity GRRM never thought of something like this.

WexPyke Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I am not so sure the unsullied aren't changing under Dany. They also seem more like normal soldiers in the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aryakills Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I have no problem with it. It's two former slaves learning to be human again. Who cares that he's been "cut" and to what degree that may or may not entail. He would simply derive his pleasure from pleasing her. Ever heard the phrase "there's more than one way to skin a cat."? Well, there's more than one way to please a woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Blackbeard Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I disliked this story arc the second it showed up back at the beginning of the season. Also Summer Islanders have been shown to be black, Grey Worm is not black, him being a Summer Islander doesn't work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addam of Hull Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Certainly not the storyline of the season, but I find the Grey Worm/Missandei angle about a thousand times more watchable than Robb/Talisa, so... it's watchable and I do like the humanizing element for the Unsullied and former slaves.

Stannis' shadow babies Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Anyway, I like it, it's a interesting new PoV, and one of the criticisms of the books has always been that there weren't enough insights into the affairs of the lowborn caught up in the Game of Thrones - it's nice to see the perspective from the angle of the (ex-)slaves. This. Besides, they may play a bigger part in the future -that we don't know of- and this could be a way to keep them visible besides being yesmen to Daenerys.

JonCon's Red Beard Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 It's ok if some don't like it but is still a good story. And it's 100000 times better than Pod being a sexual tyrannosaur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khal Porno Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I thought this was a great addition, and so heartbreaking. Losing your genitals won't eradicate sexual and romantic urges (much of that comes from your brain), so of course they can fall in love and have urges they can never act on. The two actors are also quite good together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wussel Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Can't wait to see them produce GreyWorm and Misandei pornographic bed scene. Anybody else missing Irri and Dorea? It is known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Moff Mithrandir Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Lol this storyline is weird and kinda lame. So what, are they gonna find a way for the two of them to be together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noneofyourbusiness Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Back in Season 3, I expected Grey Worm to be Missandei's brother, since in the books she had brothers who were Unsullied and they've merged characters to simplify things before.

Primalsplit Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 In the book, it was mentioned that some eunuch were going to the brothel to hug a woman for some time. It was explained, even though one lacks the "masculine" organs doesn't mean one also lacks a man's heart. It was a different way of presenting it in the show. Why in the seven hells this bothered you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRON BANK Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I for one enjoyed it. I cant stand the stupid brothel scenes and brutality thats included within a story where most actions are quick and sidestepped. We have hundreds of pages packed with emotional content and storyline. I wish the series had more intrigue. instead we get another skin show, r8PE OR, senseless act of violence. I will take the grey worm Messandi story line over this other garbage any day.

Rupelone Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I think this show has enough nude and sex scene, they did not need to use this "slave romance" trick just to add more sex, this idea adds nothing to the plot or the lore.,imho.
