I'm a little sour about the episode because it had no Stannis who I think is the last person I give a poo poo about.MC Fruit Stripe posted:Is Sansa not worth rooting for or did she just earn that rape? Sansa's story is horribly depressing. She's been tosses around from horrible person to horrible person and the people get actually worse as she's passed around. She had that one tiny moment where she talked back to the crazy girl and I thought she was going to show some backbone with Ramsay but nope she's a scared girl. My guess is she's going to summon Team Terrible At Their Job to somehow gently caress things up again. Happy Noodle Boy fucked around with this message at 03:14 on May 18, 2015 |

She had to consummate the marriage with Ramsay for political reasons. That Ramsay is a monster was, well, awful. I would expect she's now going to plan Ramsay's untimely death ASAP. I'm interested in seeing how Littlefinger's machinations work out this season. He essentially has the Warden of the North title secured either for him or for Sansa, I think even if Stannis wins.

But no she didn't really earn it.

I am only getting through this by telling myself Sansa knew she would have to do this when she told Littlefinger she'd go through with marrying Ramsey. Its still awful and horrfying and I was screaming at Theon to snap and shank the fucker before it happened but at least it was something Sansa knew was going to happen and accepted as a horrible cost of avenging her family.

MC Fruit Stripe posted:Bad things happened to her, so as empathetic human beings we're supposed to want her to win. I can't believe two consecutive posts don't know this. Sansa's the good guy, we root for the good guy. I've been rooting for Sansa since Season 2. She's a pretty underrated character and one of my favorites, and I still have hope that she'll get out of this one way or another. I think she's realizing she does have friends/allies and thus at least a little power over her situation here. She just needs a chance to use it.

I mean, without awkwardly justifying the rape of Sansa, can we all agree that this show is specifically not boring enough to only be about tits and dragons? If it was only about that nobody would have continued watching after five years.

i dont think sansa is boring, but her decisions are pretty subdued and are surrounded by more active characters so she pales in comparison in terms of resonance but she does in fact make choices, have internal struggles, and isnt a complete idiot. shes just surrounded by a billion asslords that want to use her so they can own fantasy canada

Regardless, all I want from any comeuppance is for Olenna to be there every step of the way, delivering maximum cattiness.

I've never posted in this thread before, but I wanted to see the reactions to this episode in the hopes of understanding mine. Both my wife and I, and she's read the books, simultaneously decided we are done with the show. I can't think of a show I liked so much that I abandoned so abruptly. I'm not here to tell people who still like the show how wrong they are, I'm hoping to understand why I don't anymore. Yeah, the final scene was the last straw so to speak, but this is a show that has built a mountain of cruelty out of worse things than happened to Sansa. Maybe the rest of the show has stalled out such that it can't rise above the brutality? I honestly don't know.

Whenever Game of Thrones does something offensive to your sensibilities, one should think about this gif.  I don't get why people get so upset over a movie, tv, etc. The fact it's making you emotional is something to be celebrated.

MC Fruit Stripe posted:I'll also grant that it's about having one shocking event per season. But really gently caress else happens. I'm kinda over pretending this is even one of the ten best dramas on TV right now. The first two seasons were great but we've done nothing since. If there is one large allegory you can draw from this show to the real world it is about climate change. I'll leave it to you to figure out why, but it's pretty obvious. I mean, at this point, anyone who is dropping the show altogether because of that one scene has some interesting places where they draw the lines considering all the other innocent people who have had horrible things done to them both on and off screen.
