I care a lot. Especially if the new GoT show is going to be a prequel. So long as I'm able to spoil GoT shows in TVIV this entire ASoIaF thing will have been worthwhile.

Like watching the Canucks get scored on by the Blalckhawks so many times in a row they just put Chelsea Dagger on repeat and walk away from the sound booth.

kcroy posted:took me a while to realize that was a door stop. I think they were trying to demonstrate that since Arya had that whole time period where she lost her eyesight that she puts the candle out to give her an edge fighting the Waif. It doesn’t make a lot of sense because pretty much only showed her getting her rear end kicked and being helpless when she was blind but I think that’s what they were implying. I don’t think that Arya is really the Waif now. Fans would be pretty pissed off if at some point it was revealed that Arya is actually a secondary (tertiary?) character that hasn’t been mentioned in a season. Plus it showed Arya getting revenge for the Red Wedding, having a moment with Nymeria and heading to Winterfell; not exactly things the Waif would be doing. You are right that the whole sequence of Arya in Bravos was handled badly. It’s bad enough when you can tell when the show doesn’t know what to do with some characters, like Sansa the season before last. But Arya going off to train with super assassins had a lot of potential but there are so many nonsensical things about it.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:Lol, for better or worse, even admins can't see who bought a given avatar. In theory lowtax(and only lowtax) could try and match up credit card payments with the change but it'd be a ton of work for any given one, and there's no guarantee it'd be accurate or even possible. You don't even have to be logged in to buy an avatar. Spoilers for a tv show are....far from the worst consequence of this. That is loving hilarious.

Right - thanks I had forgotten the whole Arya goes blind thing. That makes sense. I agree that Arya dying ( and replaced ) won't happen, but it would be a pretty epic Red Wedding level twist, and I could see GRRM doing it in the book. I don't think he would, but could at least see that possibility. King of Foolians posted:You are right that the whole sequence of Arya in Bravos was handled badly.

When Arya entered the house of black and white, and hid needle - it seemed the set up for her choice later on. That she would encounter an event that forced her to choose between the two lives, and I assumed it would be that she would be sent to assassinate Jon or Sansa. Instead she just sort of woke up one day and was like "welp, later". poo poo I don't even remember where the books left her. ( had to look it up: https://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Arya_Stark ). The leaked Mercy chapter tells us she is going a bit rogue. Even at this point she hardly seems like some insane assassin - she has 2 kills. neither of which suggest ninja like fighting skills. Just ability to change faces. ZearothK posted:There is literally cum everywhere in that picture. well then that seems about right

GRRM wanted the show to run for 13 years, but D&D told him to gently caress off, they were gonna finish the story without him. Also the show won like 9 Emmys tonight or something. Whatever.

It's a terrible song but it's a good goal song because it pisses off everyone who plays the Blackhawks. Having them run train on you and hearing that loving song repeatedly playing is awful.

Blackhawks and Habs have the best sirens/goal songs in the league. Never mind that the Blackhawks are my favorite team and I'll always love the Original Six (besides Detroit).
