Future Null Infinity Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 First the 'allah akbar' in Danny's scene and then the 'Sandra' moment in Lyanna Mormont scene, I feel like they abandoned the checking process this season, so it's true that showrunners lost interest in the show! I don't blame them, if I spent 10 years of my life on making a show I'll be eager to finish it to move to other projects, I think even the actors want to break free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oof...No. Framing really, really matters. Tyrion had experienced a very different kind of trauma and abuse over his life leading up to the murder of his father (which was rather traumatic whether he admits it to himself or not)...mostly by this point he seems to be suffering from a very deep depression, and one that definitely continues well after he parts from Illyrio (remember the horrible storm and shipwreck when he felt like he was actually fearing for his life again? remember how he held onto those poison mushrooms and would still think about them?). Whatever Illyrio was intending to do with his mushroom stunt (whether it's just "sober up" or, indeed, an attempt to get Tyrion to "snap out of" depression), it was not framed as effective therapy (Tyrion still had a prettyyyy long psychological journey after that for like...the rest of ADWD. And he was still heavily drinking throughout most of that). And all of that still bears very little resemblance to telling someone with severe PTSD that they need to get better immediately or kill themselves. You can't just swap out one mental illness for another and say they work the same way or will be experienced the same way. GRRM intimately seems to understand that in his writing (just compare Theon and Tyrion chapters in ADWD!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did that happen? in danny speech : at 0:51, you can clearly hear a man shouting 'allah akbar' in the background, I'm sure it wasn't in the script and it's just an extra playing the funny man because 'allah akbar' is very popular on the internet (especially in the videos about the syrian war) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between this and bloodbags strapped to Arya, and Lady Mormont with "Sandra" and now people on other threads are saying Lady Mormont didn't just promise 62 good men, but Legions of men (LM promises her allegiance) .... If this season wins an award then you know a bunch of people fell in a plot hole and are being held hostage until voting is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on another thread and the topic came up where it sounded as though Lady Mormont said Sandra instead of Sansa. It was then that another poster said Lady M didn't just give the beggar King 62 of her men, but that LM "promised legions" to The Starks. What LM actually said is that she "promises her allegiance". It all boils down to dialects many aren't used to (unless LM was purposely dragging Sansa which I would love) or something that should have been tweeked in editing.

When Lyanna said, "you would want fighting men, apart from my allegiance", I heard it as legions and to me it made more sense. I thought they were talking about knights and sellswords as "fighting men" apart from the 100s of common soldiers who were the legions. However, in a later scene while counting, Jon and Davos talk about 62 men in total from Bear Island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although... I guess that was half the fun. Especially when it came to ( khaleesi ) fans. ha! Me too! I 've been reading in this forum as a guest for years - mostly book related stuff - but as the show continues to piss me off I signed up to rant & rave and vent my anger...with all these lovely like-minded people.
