some guy on the bus posted:You know how there's this tween singer no one's ever heard of named Ed Sheeran? Wouldn't it make sense if we put him on the show for no reason? What else is he going to do? This year, Dave Hill is a writer on our show.

I didn't invent a scene where Stannis tells Sam and/or Jon about the fact that Dragonstone has a bunch of dragonglass on it did I? Something like that definitely happens in the books and I was 99% sure it happened in the series too. Which makes the whole revelation kinda weird.

emanresu tnuocca posted:Yeah if there's one thing I'm sure of is that GRRM's climaxes won't involve the protagonists all becoming the sort of people who take pleasure in torture and death without paying a major personal price for it. Everytime someone in ASOIAF sets out on a quest for revenge they wind up getting screwed up by it and paying some considerable personal price, even if the revenge is fully justified. It's fine, judging by the Frey scene Arya's still nowhere near as sadistic as the people in this thread are.

Jon is gonna read Sam's letter and go, "For gently caress's sake, Davos already told me about this weeks ago. We just can't go there yet. What is he doing down there?"

Ague Proof posted:I can't wait for Dave Hill to become the show-runner for the spin-off. I can't wait for it to end like the "Bastard Executioner" Moreover, in the scene where Sam reads the books, he says that the Targs built their first stronghold on Dragonstone when they invaded Westeros, which is absolutely false and given that it's rather recent history, he should know better. The castle was built about two centuries before the Doom, with the conquest happening about 100 years after it, so the castle stood there for 300 years when Aegon started his conquest.

GaussianCopula posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uo7dwbteFE&t=49s All Stannis says is "We have it in Dragonstone" not "We have a giant loving deposit of it in Dragonstone." Sam could easily be thinking that all Stannis has is a few daggers.

I figured it out. The spinoff will follow a group of soldiers in post-apocalyptic Westeros, trying to maintain order and stability in a ravaged land. This year, Ed Sheeran is the main character.

I never heard that song and don't know who this guy is. It's not some attempt at being cool and underground, it's just not my(or my friends') kinda music. What does it say about the state of GoT that the most talked about thing with the season premiere is a cameo by some popstar?

Lol, I don't see how I'm supposed to just hear this song. My radio in my truck is either NPR or my old man ears Spotify playlist. And I only have Netflix and HBO streaming services so no commercials. I am seriously curious how your so versed in this pop music without actually seeking it out.

Oh my God how many loving pages are going to be about that stupid cameo? Also, Arya is not going to kill them. You could tell she was touched by the line about being kind to strangers, so they'll be kind to you. It's probably the moment where she decides to go back to Winterfell instead of carry on to King's Landing.

"Who among you knows this pop star, Ed Sheeran?" Goon 1: *stands up, boldly* "Not I! I am not a normie!" Goon 2: *stands up even faster, speaks with a more strident tone* "I can't even say the name Eaud Shear-han!" Goon 3: *pushes the other two people out the way and shouts through a megaphone* "I've never heard music!"

Now I'm married with a 1 year old daughter so that's even less time for poo poo like that. My house is usually the party house now and we either listen to my Spotify playlist or we just play live music with instruments that isn't Taylor swift. Sorry my life is not like yours where you jam out to music for teenage girls.

What if you go to parties and bars where they play good music instead? I got curious and looked up Shape of You. It sounds vaguely familiar so I've probably heard bits of it in a shop or something, but no way could I have named either the song or the artist if it hadn't turned out to be the most interesting thing in the hit tv show Tits of Dragons. Speaking of which where was the pointless nudity in this episode? Lycus posted:This isn't actually what normal people are talking endlessly about. Well yes but I post about a dragon tv show on dead gay comedy forums so what would I know about normal people?
