Working in the field is for peasants  Dany and Jorah have been outdoors for years though. They should look positively mediterranean by now.

Blazing Ownager posted:Hey quick question, I'm not sure I heard this entirely right: Did the Red Lady admit that 99% of what she does (apparently, except shadow-assassin-womb) is bullshit and is smoke & mirrors, like throwing stuff into the fire so people think the Lord of Light is actually involved? She's got actual substance, but she leads with showmanship first.

Anyone who thinks Dany's story is dull doesn't remember Season 2. But yeah, it could be better. I still want what I mentioned a year or so ago: No more Dany episodes. No checking up on what's going on in Essos. Maybe a whisper of her from the small council, maybe not even that. Just forget her completely. Let the actress go film Terminator movies or something. ...then in episode 9, a group is marching up the Kingsroad on their way to "The Big Battle", all confident about smashing their outnumbered enemies, when there's a slight rustle in the bushes on the right and All loving Hell Breaks Loose. Three Dragons, finally fully grown, with riders*, come flying out of the sunrise with the unsullied not far behind, and lay waste to something we thought indestructible. I'll welcome her back when that happens. Right now, she's just a timesink in a show that doesn't have time to spare each week. Her Masterstroke at Astapor was great fun, but that should have been about the end of it. *Who's going to ride these dragons anyway? Back in Season 2, I was thinking Irri and Doreah were getting built up as the ones who were actually feeding and raising the Dragons, but that didn't work out so well

bUm posted:The main idea behind it is: without some sort of flying assistance, there is literally no way an army could possibly ever attack/lay siege to the Eyrie since from (I think) Stone onwards it is a single-file trail the entire way (with every stage having attacking vantage points on the lower parts of the path). Pleasant Friend posted:So can Littlefinger marry Sansa now? Or is her marriage to Tyrion still binding?  No real reason it wouldn't be binding. bar88537 posted:I really hope that when Brienne and Pod catch up to The Hound and Ayra, they don't just kill each other. They can start a family and Brienne can protect her by settling down.

SoFarGone posted:These posts are fun an all, but we know how this is really going to end. We've seen it twice. Once in Dany's vision at the House of the Undying and again this season in Bran's vision at the weirdwood tree. Prophecies and visions in fiction always turn out exactly as expected with no room for interpretation.

Perestroika posted:If they went at it at a realistic pace it'd generally be over in a few seconds and you'd have a hard time following what happened until one of them falls over bleeding. You know what causes me to have a hard time following what happens? Cutting the damned camera every 1.5 seconds. I'd love to see more fight scenes in more shows/movies holding shots for longer. I know it's done because you need to swap stunt doubles in and out all the time*, but goddamn, I wish more actors could make less use of stunt doubles. It'll never happen, of course, but I can dream. *and because a fake swing looks nothing like a real swing if you see it from the wrong angle

The Maesters appear to provide a wide range of inconsistent services. They can barely sterilise an amputated hand, but no-one's dick seems to fall off. I wonder how the whores manage to go more than a day on the job without getting pregnant. Actually, no. I just remembered what thread I was in. I don't wonder that. Not here.

wisdomHNOX posted:It doesn't really matter. Regardless of his parentage, taking the Black means that any birthright he does or does not have is irrelevant. Like I said in this thread (or was it the last one), The Nights Watch is pretty much destroyed. What happens to the oath when that ancient organisation no longer exists? I doubt there's much precedent, and if there's one thing for sure, it's that the rules go out the window when enough power/gold/circumstance is applied.

I'm pretty sure the value of 100 means the whole damned lot. Rangers, Builders, Stewards. Castle Black, Eastwatch, Shadow. My understanding is that they used to have thousands of people in ages past. Jon's claim of "a thousand" was taken at least a little bit seriously. The way I see it, they're down to a few dozen men who can fight, and plenty of them are going to die when Mance finds his matches. Either they're getting reinforced very loving soon, or getting wiped out entirely is going to seem pretty plausible. Stonefish fucked around with this message at 10:52 on May 25, 2014 |

Aishan posted:Do we know if anyone other than Jon and Sam from the ranging force actually made it back after the mutiny? Were they all wiped out? Dolorous Edd and that other named character were part of the force. They were chained up, but made it back (somehow?). No-one else has been pointed out as having done so. Edit: Let me just refer to my handy dandy OP... It was Grenn.

Stonefish posted:Either they're getting reinforced very loving soon, or getting wiped out entirely is going to seem pretty plausible. And of course, as I put forth last time, what happens if some lord sees the threat and sends five thousand men to the wall to reinforce it? Do you think they'll want their sizeable force of loyal men to take the black? Of course not. So they simply won't. Aemon and Alliser and friends will be powerless to demand otherwise. What happens to the organisation when 98% of the people aren't in it? It falls by the wayside.

Irish Joe posted:It takes me hours to defrost my freezer and the ice is only an inch thick. The Wall is like a dozen foot wide and 700 foot tall. It would take Mance months to do any significant damage, and even then, the Wall repairs itself constantly. I don't know where the self repair bit comes from, but there's more than a dozen foot. Maybe if they filled the top with wildfire. Or thermite.   Four inch steel bars don't seem like much compared to all that.

It's been years, but I still want a DVD extra of Tywin, Tyrion, Petyr, Varys and Bronn sitting around a campfire for fifteen hours, just drinking and talking. In or out of character. Whatever. Awesome people with awesome voices, just going on about stuff. The Westerosi version of:
