Rick and Morty Season NOW Season 7...Look Who's Talking...
Ghostlydragon replied to Jaxom 1974's topic in Entertainment
I haven't seen it yet but it sounds as if S5 is a lot weaker than what came before, although I felt the same about s4. Has R&M already hit its peak or is it not as bad as I hear? -

Master thread on what the Show means for the book plot

Urgh. Hostile territory. Often caused by following Tyrion's advice. Obv landing at Dragonstone was Dany's idea but the decision to attack Casterly Rock, the decision to have a small ship go from Dragonstone back to Dorne, and then to Kings Landing really made no sense. Much like flying/sailing back to Dragonstone in S8 made no sense since everyone else marched up the Kingsroad. Agreed on Oldtown. Oldtown makes perfect sense since Dany could be crowned as the rightful monarch there and she could send ravens from there to make her intention clear, much like Stannis' ravens in S2. Then any forces could go by land eliminating any chance of an attack at sea, and Euron would give up immediately when it was clear Cersei has no power. -
HBO Planning Dunk and Egg, Other Thrones-properties
Ghostlydragon replied to Westeros's topic in Game of Thrones News
All of this just proves that ASOIAF should never have been adapted until it was done. Nearly every project that HBO want to make simply isn't done and George is gonna be forced to reveal what isn't ready yet. -

Agreed. Even if Tyrion is able to get back to his old self, I can't see him being able to forgive the public and nobles for how he was treated in book 3. I'm sure he will be all for mass murder and allowing the kind of sack Tywin allowed. And why would he want to be a hand. I think he will want all the power he can get and anyone who stands in his way is gonna suffer. -

That's very true. And as good as the red wedding was on tv, it's clearly about the shock of it happening. In the book there's such a sense of dread and impending doom as soon as they get to the Twins. There's such a difference. It was no surprise Dany and Bran would receive the same treatment where it was all about the shock of where their stories ended. Oh and look at the faces -

It's an awful decision. The next Peter Baelish will bribe or manipulate his way into power. And people who remember or read about succession based on bloodline like Gendry's future children will rebel. It's asking for trouble. -

Exactly. The is no proof Stannis will do this. If anything he'd be more likely to burn himself alive if put in that position. The most likely ones to do that will be Melisandre and/or Selyse, or the wildlings out of belief the greyscale will come back. -

Interesting ideas. And didn't GRRM just say she is burned, but D&D decided to change it to make Stannis far worse than he is. -

So you think Stannis will defeat the Boltons and Freys? -

As damaged as Sansa may or may not be, she's going to be expected to marry and mother an heir. This isn't Queen Elizabeth of Henry VIII's line who had a cousin in place when she never had a child to take over. Sansa will have to give birth, whether political or for love. Otherwise who will be the next ruler? Some distant cousin who is somewhere in the Vale? Or Edmure's son who may have a claim based on Edmure being Cat's brother? Sansa will have a child eventually. I'm sure she will want to be a parent again in the future but if she refuses, the northerners may overthrow her. -
These are brilliant videos. I recommend everyone watch them. Even the cast if they watch these vids.

The problem with Bran becoming king is that it might have been what GRRM planned. But as he wrote more he could have realised that it wouldn't work. Bran being king could have been his idea in 2014 or before but there's every chance he won't be in 20whatever lol. -

Poor guy. If only he joined when the show was actually worth watching.
