Characters move at the speed of plot. The show isn't ready for them to arrive yet.

midnightclimax posted:Are the white walkers explained in the books (origins etc), or are they just "generic undead monsters"? They're not explained (the show has revealed more than the books) but they're also not undead! Just because they lead an army of reanimated corpses doesn't make them undead. Supposedly they're loosely based off tuatha, sidhe, and fae stuff like that. Though that's just spotty internet reporting of a thing GRRM said once. They're presented more like cruel, implacable ice demons, though we also can't really have their point of view. Speleothing fucked around with this message at 03:44 on May 21, 2014 |

While we're taking about OPs, we should probably put the video of Tyrion's trial-by-combat in the Vale in there so peeps can be reminded of the etiquette.

KORNOLOGY posted:There's no one for Jaime to fight that would have the same showdown appeal as Oberyn vs The Mountain. Two characters, either of which can die without much story repercussion, that have been (re)introduced basically for the sake of this fight. Behold the ratings glory that is two ancillaries coming to blows in a way that will change absolutely nothing between the Lannisters, the only characters who seem to truly matter. It would be completely poor writing if the show hadn't gone out of its way to tell us this at every given opportunity. The audience is the one getting duped and that is just as pretentious as it sounds. This is the stupidest opinion I have read today. And I have been doing a lot of reading.

Shadow posted:She's the rightful heir to Winterfell. I don't really understand how Roose Bolton could be given dominion over land on the one hand, and Tywin talking about Sansa's children inheriting Winterfel with Tyrion being Regent until that happens. So sorry. Speleothing fucked around with this message at 01:48 on May 23, 2014 |

Garum. And we know how to make it in a gt general sense (salt and rotting fish in a hot barrel) just not the exact specifics of how to make fancy brown or easy-pour. Every house had their own barrel, so there was no doubt a lot of variation anyway. It's one of those things where it wasn't really written down because it was so obvious. Then it went out of fashion.
