Arya's Season 6 arc was a nonsensical mess.

At least it was true to the books!

Autopsy guy saying the wall will always be there is basically yelling that it's coming down soon.

Also the hound saying the same thing.

It's unfortunate that TV shows need to beat you over the head with foreshadowing (cough westworld cough) but then again there were the "Renly wasn't gay in the books!" people.

the show has separate rules for good guys and bad guys. nothing too good can happen to the good guys if they do something dumb but the bad guys can do completely stupid poo poo and get away with it.

So do the books.

I don't think it was bad, but pulling this sort of stunt over and over, and then giving us a palette swap Ramsey? WHAT THE gently caress?!! It's so goddamn lazy. I mean, Jesus Christ.

I mean, it is true to the books so...

I thought we were past book territory now? Admittedly, I've only read three of them.

Euron is a character from the late books and is exactly that.

At least darkstar didn't make it into the show.

Uh, okay I guess? Who honestly gave a poo poo about Nymeria though? We haven't seen her for six loving seasons now.

Book readers.

Hopefully its some sort of chekov's direworlf thing for later in the season.

They have no fleet with which to transport the army so they're out of play.

Considering that, as the oldest living Targaryen male, Jon's true heritage basically removes Danaerys' entire claim to the throne, you're not quite wrong.

I wonder if she'll play a game of marry, kill, or BEND THE KNEE upon finding out.

They'll get married the instant Jon rides a dragon.

Yes by taking The Black you give up your right to inheritance. That said, this is Game of Thrones, wherein the rules are made up and the points don't matter, so I'm sure they'll find some way to have him be head of House Tarly anyways.

Rules didn't matter that much in real life either. It's good to be king.

GRRM have good books, but Game of Thrones are not one of them. Seriously. Anyone with some good ribs that start reading them simply stop because is not good literature. I can be entertaining for 1 or 2 books, but after that you realize you are reading the book equivalent of a TV serie.

Don't read the books, watch the serie.

You should try the book barn thread.

The only point of contention is that you should've said "2 or 3"

So does the next episode have VFX for the teleporter? Seems kinda cheap that Star Trek could have a VFX in the 60s but we get nothing here.

Night King moves as fast as the bad writing allows him to move.

He's finishing all the side quests before hitting the point of no return.
