Euron really is just a waste of space, as well as being time killing for Cersei while Lena collects her salary waiting to be the big bad at the end? She did almost seem as much of a waste as Euron himself. I think we got inklings that we might have a euron more similar to the books with him taking advantage of cersei now and then doing what is best for him. by the way. Did anyone else notice cersei drinking wine? WASN T SHE PREGNANT??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Stark Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 So, Arya knew Tywin Lannister and the head of the faceless men, and her sister, Sansa, is the smartest person she's ever known? Oh really. Mindwalker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found all of Arya's reunions were meh. Agreed. Arya has lost everything that made her an interesting character. Jon riding the dragon was ridiculous.

It's not "good" for me, but it's something I could appreciate if I turned my brain off long enough to imagine that Jon and Arya were actually reuniting and stuff. That Jon learning about him being Rhaegar's son... oof. I still can't believe his name's Aegon. Whyyyyy. And the 1x01 nostalgia. Begin with a sovereign visiting Winterfell with that music and a boy excited to see the monarch, and ending with a stare-off between Bran and Jaime! Right, it wasn't horrible. (It was spoiled well, though, I noticed, if not the aura of the scenes, the content). The Jon dragon ride tried hard to almost be comedy at first, and that made it feel..........a bit weird. I'm still not over him being named Aegon, either. What's the status on Rhaegar's OTHER Aegon, show wise. No matter the status, it's STUPID!! Some of the nostalgia pissed me off, the overkill of it, but.......it still was better than the dumb call back to Arya at the gate last year.

What about the faceless men? Sansa "I love Joff" "I'll marry Ramsay for revenge" Stark is the smartest person she's ever known? I guess it's a lock that Sansa lives and will be Lady of Winterfell, but that was so graceless and silly. Mindwalker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hate the over kill on disguisign affection in being a wise ass too much, like a bit of the Arya and Sandor stuff. But it is the warm looks on their face as and after that makes me get over it. I really thought Arya would come off much colder considering the way they write her and some of Maisie's interviews this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The characterisations were somewhat consistent to last season, and there were no new instances of teleportation, or weird conquest tactics or setups. I guess that's just because there are 2 locations, though. Some of the actual comedy was good. I got a laugh out of Cersei and the elephants. And when the show is going down the tubes as much as this, intentional or unintentional humour is the best aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So dumb Sansa is now a combo of Cersei/Littlefinger and just there to stir up a bunch of shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joaozinm Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 they are clearly saving the nonsense for the later episodes. This one was not absurd like the previous season. Jon riding the dragon though was hard to swallow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone else notice cersei drinking wine? WASN T SHE PREGNANT??? Ah ha!! I was wondering on that, and didn't stop to think on that after the big deal that was made last season. I kept waiting for her to mumble about a miscarriage even after Euron left. But yeah the wine LOL See how dumb the Ds have made me. I forget, LOL So, will they even tell us EVER if she was lying or miscarried or is just now risking a drink to get through sex with Euron? I do think Euron was less..........annoying? but for the way the show goes, how little time is left, it's hard not to call time on him out as wasted time.

Beginning of Season 8: Sansa: Lady of Winterfell, head of House Stark, sworn to Dany Dany: Claimant Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. Jon: Warden of the North (like how Daven is for Cersei in the books), or nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fictional pregnant women in the era before fetal alcohol syndrome was documented can never have a sip of wine without something bad happening. It is known.
