Clear your schedule, plenty of Starbucks whole bean French Roast... ground fine if you don't have a grinder, lots of frozen microwavables... I like pasta, Coca-Cola, turn off your fucking phone... and catch up. Welcome to our world Sir.

Finally I found the form for G.O.F!!!!

Im so Far Behind thoe, I'm on season 2 :(

Be forewarned, until you catch up, spoilers abound in here. I envy you, I'd love to binge watch GoT with fresh eyes.

also guys, remember Jaqen said to the waif, not to let arya suffer, yet she stabbed her multiple times and even twisted the knife. to me this suggests she isn't "no one", she had a personal agenda involved here. and it may just be jaqen testing her as he has been testing arya

The only and mildly entertaining thing in this episode was the ass-finger reveal.

 

What a shitty episode, Arya plot could have been done faster, too much redundancy IMO, she better go blitz on everyone when back. Blackfish, didn't do fuck, what a waste of time, the whole riverun story could have been wrapped up off screen and perhaps white walkers could get more air time.

 

More like extend low budget storyline and profiteer moar, which is perfectly fine. Perhaps one of the worst episodes.

Battle of bastards next episode to go like this:

 

1. Tragic hero snow, in sisters love, goes in suicide war.

2. Get owned and surrounded by Bolton ( in trailer)

3. Little finger comes in and saves the day, so predictable.

4. Danny is where she was 2 seasons ago, with dragon, army and fighting war against same peeps in the same place. + Tyrion, whose witty dialogues have gone down the drain, - the bear island dude and his always-sad demeanor. The whole season is fail cascading like TOP.

 

Danny better be in ships sailing to dorne, where the eunuch has gone into, and fix that horrible tangent too, "bad pussay", still angers me.

What was the rumor the Qyburn told Cersei about?

I heard it was probably that there was lots of that green wildfire stuff below the city. There's some theory that if she can't take the city back she might just burn it to the ground. Like the Mad King was going to do when he was about to be overthrown. (disclaimer - I'm not that knowledgeable on GoT lore it's just what I've heard)

 

I also heard theories that Arya got the actor to get her fake bad of blood to put under her shirt and wasn't really stabbed, or that it was actually Jaqen guy wearing Arya's face. Both those turned out wrong it seems.

And Cersie deserves what's happening to her. You don't give religious nuts weapons. Kinda reminds me of ISIS.

I wondered the same thing

Cersei, the mad Queen.

I think they got dirt on the head sparrow.

 

I really liked this episode.  Top moment was The Mountain decapitating the smug little sparrow.  Really?  You actually plan to drag a woman out of her home to meet with your asshole leader against her will?   I am totally down with pouring wildfire all over that temple. 

 

Hard to swallow Arya managed to survive the stab wounds, fall into that body of water (icky infection invitation), and then be able to run all over town while being chased by the waif.  Second top moment was knowing what was going to happen when she snuffed the candle.

 

Riverrun, total waste, except the guy playing Edmire is the same who played Brutus in Rome.  I war really hoping for a passionate kiss from Jamie and Brianne, even though I knew they would not kiss, but it would have been kind of hot, but it would have ruined everything.  LOL  Will Edmire live out his days with his son in Casterly Rock?  I think not.  How did Catelyn's siblings, Edmire and Lysa turn out to be such twats?

 

I predicted Dani would not cotton to the return of slavery and it looks like I was right.  Poor Tyrian, will he get into trouble?

Yep... Rome was so awesome I had to comment. He plays a sick puppy called Black Jack Randal in Outlander as well.

 

Edmure Tully isn't the brightest, but I believe Jaime convinced him that this was the only way to keep his entire family, and all of House Tully, from being erased. I'm disappointed that Blackfish didn't have more to bring to the show. Two fights I wanted to see, and was denied, was Blackfish and Arya. I still don't believe Arya could possibly do all that, let alone survive gut wounds that intense, but I guess it's in the script. The best part about the whole thing was the candle... "Well bitch... can you do it in the dark?"

 

Episode 9 has traditionally been the epic episode of every season... be ready.

Another theory about the rumor is that she may have found out that the tyrells are the ones who plotted and killed Joffery. Which would give her another reason to say fuck it and burn kings landing since Tommen is obviously lost to her. Or perhaps it was that Tyrion is with Dany. Or that the Starks are marching on Winterfell (not sure why she would care though). So many possibilities......

Episode 9 starts here

 

*RIP Rickon

*RIP Wun Wun

*Danny's scene was awesome!

*Ramsy should've used his 20 good men

*Davos is coming after the red priest

 

Overall best episode of the season so far by far. The battle scene is literally the most i've gotten out of TV in so many years, reminded me of some Lord of The Rings type battles, pretty epic and I have nothing bad to say.

 

Only thing that pissed me off is why didn't they give wun wun like a big ass club or something, like they deliberately nerfed him, could have done so much damage compared to the amount of damage he took

 

Season 10 preview:

Battle scenes were pretty good. But wth..anyone ever hear of military strategy? How do you allow yourself be surrounded on 3 sides by footmen? At one point it looked Jon and his army were just waiting around so that they can get surrounded.

 

Also wtf moment...Ramsey retreats to Winterfell and claims he can withstand a siege, because Jon has no army left. Didnt he just see a Vale army cut his forces to shreds? whaat? anyway..poor script writing.

 

Also, Mereen siege ended with a whimper. I guess they blew all the budget on the Winterfell battle. But still a let down.

I LOVED this episode!

 

This is the first time in a long time that Dani wasn't annoying to me. Loved her battle (how the hell did she not fall?) . Loved the meeting with Asha and Theon. Tyrian's speech was quite good. Raiding and raping is all the Iron born have??? Geez, move off those islands!

 

Sansa the strategist rocks the house. I also was like WTF when Jon's army was being surrounded, they don't know how to fight soldiers marching past with shields? Still, I loved the battle. Poor actor playing Rickon, did he have a single line this season? At least he appeared in two seasons. Loved the giant, agree he should have a club, but didn't think about it until Samus pointed it out. Like Imran (aka Sherlock), I was wondering what Ramsey was talking about with " they have no army" but I think he was trying to get his remaining men to not surrender. I kept waiting for the cavalry to come to the rescue, predictable but pleasing. Dang! Climbing over mountains of dead and dying was a great idea for production.

 

Ramsey's death was the best moment of the year and rivaled Joffrey's murder. So freaking satisfying! "Sit, Fido, sit?" Not when you starved him for a week, you sadistic pile of worthlessness. Great acting from Sophie Tucker! The carnage written on her face, instead of making us watch was a great choice and impossible to pull off with a lesser actress.

A couple things we learned last night... if 3 dragons are flying above your ship, the worst thing you could do is stand there and stare at them, and always feed the dogs. What confused me the most was Sansa tells Ramsey, "You're gonna die tomorrow, Lord Bolton", and then rides off... then Ramsey talks about his dogs not eating for 7 days. Later Sansa says, "You said it yourself... the dogs haven't eaten in 7 days"... she wasn't there to hear him say that, but I guess it's in the script.

 

Another Stark bites the dust, and Jon should have listened to Sansa, and not fell for Ramsey's trap. The plan was not to charge, but they did anyway. Petyr Baelish will be unveiling his true intent.

 

I believe I figured out what the "old rumor" is... it's if the Wild Fire that was installed by the Mad King to burn Kings Landing, is still there... I think Cersei will burn it all, and kill everyone in the process. Remember back when Dani was in the House of the Undying... she had a vision of the throne room, and the roof was burned out and snow was all over the ground. Jamie will freak when his sister kills herself, and Tommen, and everyone. We shall see...
