Game Of Thrones: The Sopranos with swords or Dynasty in chainmail?

I think some of the confusion around Cersei is that she appears to be wearing the same clothes when she was crowned as she was the day of the trial, tho I didn't rewatch to verify, making it seem like it transpired all in the span of less than one day. Then it shifted to Danys leaving with which had to be several weeks in the making.

I can't see the city coming together that quickly for Cersei's ceremony, either. There would have been confusion after the blast, people grieving for loved ones, trying to figure out what happened, etc.
i said that's her lucky outfit lol.
she wore it again.
that's her easter dress .
 
Cersei clearly didn't have plans on being queen. If she did she would have let Tommen go to the Sept
no why would she? lol
she didn't want to kill him and rule she wanted to kill all of them and let her son rule without their influence..just hers. she would never hurt her children. so of course she never planned on it.
BUT
now that she is AND has no more kids to worry about, shit is going to get bad.

her redeeming quality was that she did her dirt but ultimately it was for her kids.
now why is she doing dirt? lol cause dirt will be done.
 
How did Varys travel between Dorne and Meereen so quickly?



The timelines between the various storylines don’t necessarily line up within a given episode. For instance, the ‘Northern Tour’ Jon and Sansa embark on would probably take a couple weeks, but Arya’s storyline over the past few episodes only spans a few days. We realized a while ago that if we tied ourselves in knots trying to make all the ‘story days’ line up between all the characters the momentum would suffer.

This is vaguely the same philosophy that A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. Martin follows. Here’s what he says in a foreword to A Storm of Swords:

A Song of Ice and Fire is told through the eyes of characters who are sometimes hundreds or even thousands of miles apart from one another. Some chapters cover a day, some only an hour; others might span a fortnight, a month, half a year. With such a structure, the narrative cannot be strictly sequential; sometimes important things are happening simultaneously, a thousand leagues apart.

im saddened that on a high brow show like this, simple things like this need to be explained to people.
that's really troubling.

but like i said. varys left before the attack, khaleesi arriving, defeating them, the greyjoys arriving, and they built a fleet of fucking ships.
just because we didn't SEE the conversation until then doesn't mean that it happened right at the same time as everything else was going on.

that's just logical tv 101
 
that face is for shame but she got a body on her tho...zombie mountain gonna enjoy that


she is 41...

lol...she cougar status...

people like their hands to be held instead of going with it.
It was pretty obvious that there was a passage of time, but people are so used to seeing movies or tv in a linear fashion that they can not imagine a passage of time when one scene jumps to the next. Like one cat said, he needs establishing shots to signify the time difference. I always thought it was pretty apparent, but I have watched a bunch of videos on youtube and these cats were complaining about the same thing, and I just couldn't get it.

mufuckas wanted a "several weeks later" caption @ the bottom of the screen in big bold white letters
 
I didn't expect him to not be pussy whipped. I always felt bad for Tommen. He was ill prepared and to good of a person to be in the game.
Yup if he wasn't young and easily manipulated, he could have fared better even with his principles. He's the type of cat that needs a male role model until about 25. Sam grew a set at the wall with influences and he's able to defend his stances even though he's probably one of the nicest dudes there

lol right so people need to change their hair color or carry a baby around that turns into a toddler so we know oh ok time has passed lol

its just crazy especially on a show like this with so much going on lol
 
he jumped because he thought his whole world crumbled. It's actually a normal response considering everything he'd been through.
I get on him for not having a personality. It's not that he's young or that he didn't know exactly what he wanted to do or how to rule. It's no personality that i didn't like.
If he questioned anything or we got a peek into something then i'd feel much better about it.
I fully expected him to kill himself though. I didn't think it would happen this episode but eventually i thought he'd kill himself because of all the shit going on. Mom might die, dad dead, sister, brother dead, uncle a fugitive, grand father gone, everybody in his ear, wife in his ear about her brother, sparrow trying to tell him what to do. i fully get ALL OF THAT. ive never said he needed to handle it with grace and class of an adult or anything close. Joffrey was getting checked left and right by tryion so its not that he's supposed to be a leader. just have a personality as a human being lol


I think the fact that he was willing to turn on Cersei to keep Margery and lost everything anyway did him in. It's pretty clear that Margery was playing role, misleading the Sparrow, but it's less clear if Tommen was as well. Whether he was or not, getting rid of trial by combat meant, unless they had an alternate plan to save her, that he was willing to sacrifice his mother to stay with Margery. So the fact that he was willing to do all that, and then have it come to nothing, as Margery died anyway, may have contributed to his suicide also. He could have been despondent over losing what he wanted most, it also could have been part self punishment for going against Cersei. All speculation and psychobabble, but it crossed my mind so....
 
Lots of Little Brothers
The Hound
Theon Greyjoy

ya that's a possibility too...it doesn't have to be hers...I still think it will be jaime tho and that's the reason they left that part of the prophecy out of the show so it has more of an "oh shit" effect for casual viewers...fan predictions leading up to this season has been great tho...it's like this season they gave fans everything they've long predicted or always wanted to know
 
how are they going to get close enough to her to do it? she is not hardly about to be on any frontlines when all of this shit is going down and they have to get passed the mountain.
jamie don't.

I can see the hound killing the mountain...not in relation to cersei's prophecy tho

possibly.
i just see her saying fuck it long before she's captured. she was at fuck it kill myself and the kids when she was in the chambers and it looked like they were losing that battle. you not taking her alive to do whatever with her
 
Tyrion is killing Cersei.

That war wont last very long. Cersei has that Lannister army. Thats it! Nothing else. I do believe that it would be logical for Euron to turn his ships around and offer Cersei his help for her hand. So she might have the Iron Born too. I dont see how they can last against Dany's army (Highgarden, Dorne, Dothraki, Unsullied... And 3 dragons!).

Dany will let Tyrion kill his sister.
 
I need a gif of bron and jaime riding back into king's landing and seeing that destruction...that shit floored me
 
Jamie is going to kill Cersie. He's killed people for just thinking about doing what she just did. They don't have anymore children together. And they made a point to emphasize he was "the kingslayer". He's going to be the one to do it... it's a perfect climax for their storyline.
Yup
ties into his love as well. and her disregard for life is going to be epic.

You can see him go through a range of emotions from shock and awe....and then transition to anger once he realized what had actually taken place....all in that short period of time.

again. you saying it like she is going to get captured. she is not going to get caught. not because she's untouchable but because she will kill herself and everyone else in her kingdom before she's "brought to justice"
especially after that high sparrow bull? lol no way in hell he gets the chance to kill her. imo

i think they will fight but will end up negotiating a deal where they have to work together.

Once again, you could see how disgusted he is with that title when Walder Frey cranked up the, "here we are...two Kingslayers" talk. Jamie's expression changed as soon as he heard that word.

And Jamie also seemed to be just as disgusted with Walder Frey putting himself on his level....thus the "what battles have you fought" convo.
 
I don't know how much forgiveness the Starks will have in their heart for Keeping THeon alive, especially Arya
The Ironborn had no friends...they razed everybody. But if he takes them out of that business as Dani requested, they may let him slide.


but like the Dothroki, what are they gonna do now? after such a big culture change...

Dani is gonna have some hickups along the way with issues like this.

:lol: fuck the Dothroki, winter is here and they wouldn't stand a chance in the cold north.

cause he didn't do it to be a king slayer he did it to save the people which is why i think he'll kill cersei. not even to save the people but save her from herself.
we haven't even seen a mad cersei with nothing to lose yet. i don't know if we want to know what that looks like
 
House Frey is utterly incompetant and the assumption that their security is tight or even adequate is over reaching. So its not hard to believe an assassin can enter and maneuver through the castle grounds undetected especially in disguise.

Arya shown entering the castle would have been the flaw to ruin the awesome surprise. So it wasn't shown what point Arya entered the Lord Frey's grounds...ehhhh big deal.

What big surprise? You yourself pointed out the exact same thing happened last season and if you think so little of the Freys, what difference does it make to you that she used the same or similar trick to kill them.

You're saying just the freys and I'm saying Jamie was still on site with Arya. Are you now saying Jamies troops are worthless as well?

Let's assume I entertain the idea of Arya sneaking around a castle without problems . I've already said Arya doing that is bullshit given her age and experience. It's not a question of what happened or how it is written. I'm saying the writers did a poor job of showing her growing overtime and I don't see her being flawless killer.if you can't give me a time frame of how long she was training, why would my views change.

By the way outside of Jamies comments what makes them incompetent. Trick or not they were good enough to beat Rob Stark during the red wedding. Granted the troops were probably mostly drunk, but they did execute the plan.

Oh. I'm not talking about whether he is it proud of it or not.. I'm strictly thinking about the foreshadowing being done. I think it's going to be between saving Cersei or saving the entire kingdom and he's finally not going to choose Cersei.
