kissdbyfire Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 LOL Figures, doesn't it? They can't even commit to their own bs, pretty much the same way they can't commit to the story they *were* telling a few yrs back. The same way they can't keep track of what is or isn't going on in their own story - Stannis burning ppl on Dragonstone in s 2. Everything is half-assed, it's so funny. Couldn't they have whisked him off to NI another way? A less conspicuous way perhaps? Where was he seen, Heathrow? It really is hilarious. Now what? Are they going to tell us he's there for a round of slapsies with Benioff? :laugh: http://www.cinemablend.com/television/Jon-Snow-Probably-Returning-Game-Thrones-See-Evidence-73158.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Cornered_Wolf Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 So, why is it Telltale Games Games of Thrones Remembers the North better than season 5 did? All the 'North Remembers' feels from a vidya game with a fraction of the budget and significantly shorter turn around time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RGBeyondAsshai Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Everyone is spotting him around Belfast? Someone spotted Rory McCann and Jerome Flynn at an airport, too:https://mobile.twitter.com/smcintosh1982/status/621214655457927168 Oh yay for the Hound! I'm really loving these airport fans today :) If someone sees Joe Dempsie I'll be thrilled... #stoprowing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To actually defend d&d the game is mostly about the north were as the show for whatever reason is about the lannisters and back to insulting them. The next part of the games out today I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGBeyondAsshai Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Btw, completely forgot to ask... how has this Jon is coming back leaked? Wasn't he spotted today at airport with Jaqen and luggage sporting a man bun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliasocfan Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 That would be perfect. How many ways can they diss Cat. Too bad Olly couldn't get in on this somehow. While he was stabbing Jon, he could have said, "Lady Catelyn sends her regards." That would require them to remember Cat. Which we all know they don't.

Le Cygne Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Oh yay for the Hound! I'm really loving these airport fans today :) If someone sees Joe Dempsie I'll be thrilled... #stoprowing I knew they were going to bring the Hound back, it's one of those be careful what you wish for things, I wanted him to come back, but now I dread what they will do to him. I bet Gendry will be back, sounds like they are finally doing the Riverlands. Will he just go back with the BwB after they sold him down the river? Brienne has to tell him he's a Baratheon. (Oh, wait, Melisandre already did. Sigh.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Oh, wait, Melisadre already did. Sigh.) Exactly. And I knew we were supposed to see the Hound again, but with this group you never know. I'm clinging to the little things now. Kit's hair, Hound's airport activities etc. Sadly people from Dorne and Olly are already on the cast list for next season, so I can't pretend 5 didn't happen.

Le Cygne Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I should have just called her Melisansbra, that's easier to spell. Or just the chick with the siren boobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was telling my husband everyone's names today. Larry, Carol, Prince Bashir etc. He says Melisansbra really is the perfect name for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Cygne Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hmmm, they did it again... The Hound, about Sansa: "Ask her who came back for her when the mob had her on her back." Sam, about Jon: "I've been worrying about Jon for years. He always comes back." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosehustle1 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I like hearing the Hound is back but also dreading what they will do to that character. I don't have any hopes for a decent season 6. I think it will get even more nonsensical from here on out. I think I will read recaps next season. I really don't want to contribute to their ratings.

Le Cygne Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I can't contribute to their ratings/$$$, I only ever watch it live (actually mostly half listen to it these days) and get every channel on the planet, so it's not like I'm paying for HBO just for this.

voodooqueen126 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I bet they will show Ramsay's reaction to the death of his beloved Myranda. They explored Littlefinger's desires, and Ramsay's desires. That's what everyone wanted to see, after all. They seem to be operating under the premise that good is boring and evil is interesting. Where as in real life, truly evil people like LF and Ramsay, while they may have interesting back stories (mother's who get struck by lightning, are the product of prima nocta) are pretty simple people. Goodness is a struggle, which is why it is so much more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosehustle1 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I am really glad this thread is reopened. The showRamsay vs bookRamsay thread is littered with rape apologists and people who do not know the definition of consent. Seriously, it's good to be in a thread with people who understand this stuff and share my rage about the treatment of Sansa and many of the other female characters.

JonCon's Red Beard Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Joe Dempsie will be spotted in wherever the place they use to film Uthos is because that's probably how long Gendry has rowed so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrow of the Morning Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Compare the reviews of GOT to True Detective. Crticis expect TD to make sense, they expect to be able to follow the plot and for it to make sense, for there to be proper continuity for twists, etc. etc. and when they feel it doesn't, is too muddy or convoluted, it's bashed. Contrast with GOT. All our horses are gone/Mel rode off on a horse within the span of minutes. No mention. No mention of the in universe silliness of LF/Sansa/Roose. The show makes a point of the Hound being wanted and recognized, then leaves the Vale. No mention. Critics don't care if GOT plots make any sense, it's being evaluated on a different basis, not being held to the same standard as other allegedly prestige programming. The critics are more exigent with series like House of Cards and True Detective. But, one great problem that I see is that the critics usually are more critical with the first season and, after that (when the series gain fame and buzz) they gave good ratings, even when the level of the show declined.
