For 1.5 years, you'd think they'd be able to edit 6 episodes.

Also, what about Sam's vows? Like, shouldn't he be up at Castle Black with Jon?

I wanted to like this season, but loving skipping some important moments just makes it feel rushed.

Yeah I know, but they had to keep up the illusion until the Unsullied left, otherwise they'd all be killed by a bunch of dickless psychopathic supersoldiers.

Were they, though? I thought we constantly saw them getting clowned on. They were basically Worf. I mean, yeah, in theory they're imposing and nigh-unstoppable. But for plot reasons, they have to fall over like dominos.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Escorted to a castle black with no one in it but the freefolk tormund said he was taking there. The watch died during the long night.

There is no nights watch. There is no one manning castle black. There is a giant hole in the wall. Wildlings are friends and the walkers are dead.

Jon got 'exiled to the nights watch' to stop the unsullied from murdering him so he could go retire beyond the wall.

Pretty sure all the surviving watchmen hosed off to anywhere with a warm bed and loose women

Does Tyrion take over Casterly Rock, and is there any point to it now that the mines are dry and the city is sacked?

Edit: Also, the whole scene with Grey Worm and Jon exchanging a look at the docks was loving stupid. All they had to do was keep Jon in the dungeon for one loving hour longer and not bothered finding a couple of fake Night's Watchmen because the Unsullied would be gone and you don't need to act.

Godholio posted:

Several of the noble houses were broken up. We're left with the Starks, the Greyjoys, the Arryns, and sort of the Lannisters (but their position is so fundamentally changed that I don't think they count). The others were secondary houses that have moved up to fill the voids left by the destruction of the older houses, or new ones altogether. The Martells, Baratheons, Tyrells, and probably more were extinguished.

Let's check the Seven Kingdoms and figure out which houses that were ruling them at the start are still there.

The North - House Stark. Still there.
The Westerlands - House Lannister. Still there.
The Vale of Arryn - House Arryn. Still there.
The Iron Islands - House Greyjoy. Still there.
The Stormlands - House Baratheon. Still there, thanks to Gendry.
The Reach - House Tyrell. Nope, they're gone.
Dorne - House Martell. ???

On top of that are the Riverlands, which is kind of its own thing, was ruled by House Tully. Also still there.

So one, maybe two, of the great houses are gone.

You busted my edit. Bastard.

I wasn't counting Tully since they were bannermen of a great(er) house, but I'm not digging into the wiki to find out that it was probably wrong. Also forgot Gendry (though I would also say they were extinguished and revived). Martells seemed to be wiped out...all the named members of the family were killed. So close to half were shuttered, which is very different from "none" as DR claimed.

The Tyrells may have been wiped out, but Bronn is clearly planning to run the show the same way and establish a dynasty to rule over Highgarden.

Anyway:

He may be an immortal parasite from outside time, but OTOH, he hasn't blown up any major buildings of King's Landing, or set an army loose to rape & pillage in the streets.

A friend reminded me last night the last three eyed raven lived for a 1000 years so maybe Tyrian knowing that somehow is what made him say Bran should be king?

There's discrepancy in the show and books in this regard. In the books he's ~180 or so because he's a bastard targ and former lord commander of the watch. I don't think the individual person the sentience of the raven inhabits has lived for millennia, but rather the three eyed raven itself has existed for eons and has just been passed down through mortal men.

Also, there is no lord of light - it's just been the raven manipulating things to kill the night king and take over the world of men.

Fuckin' Arya escaped death multiple times, learned to look like people by wearing their faces, murdered an entire house by herself and killed the night king and saved the world, dunno how Tyrion's ex-girlfriend ended up on that list instead.

Edit: I guess because they'd have to do actual work on their meme instead of just slapping some 'relationships' collage they found underneath it
