A Game of Thrones - TV Show Discussion Thread

I believe it was more the magic of the dragonglass and not the function as a dagger that finished it off.

A good article on how bad the tactics were in the battle. I also wondered why there was no pitch on walls.

Aye, I agree with most of the things written in the article.
With the exception of one:

...
Also, they’ve got all this dragonglass, and they didn’t coat the top of the walls with it.
...

Actually, they did coat the top of the Merlons with dragonglass, you could clearly see this in episode 2.
For unknown reasons they didn't coat the crenels as well, however.

How many episodes are there going to be? 7?

[Uncle Sparky]

6. After tonight, 2 left.

Just came here to say that battlestar galactica and Lost endings have nothing on this garbage. I saw this coming all the way back in episode 9 of season 4 with the wildling battle at the wall.

The recent episode revealed once more the glaring shortcomings in the military leadership of the - supposed - good side. Despite having an arsenal of two dragons there was a total lack of aerial reconnaissance leading to ...errrm....ummm...stuff.

Overall, slow start (kinda expected after last week), but got better. Wondering if the rifts between them good guys will lead to real drama this time or just play out nicely like the earlier Sansa-Arya mini-conflict that ended with the predictable guy's end (L-finger)

It was also crazy to appear with this little force of Unsullied before KL.

Considering that her Unsullied must have walked the whole distance from Dragonstone to KL, Dany could have as well waited for Jon to arrive,
I believe he must be, at a maximum, 1-2 weeks away.

I thought it was just for negatiation - this time.

I also think Queen D could have devastated a big part of Euron's fleet with a swift flanking attack even with only one dragon left since the big scorpion-catapult-thingies looked cumbersome to rotate...

Well, if I were Cersei, I would just have sent a large cavalry detachment of the Golden Company against Dany in order to get rid of Dany.
And/Or aimed one ot the Scorpions on KLs walls at her and fired.

I think Dany was well within range of the Scorpions of Kings Landing when she stood there with her entourage (considering their range in the fleet battle), so any attempts by Drogon to protect her would have resulted in Drogons dead ... et voila, all Targaryen threats to Cerseis throne would have been averted (well, aside from the small band of rebels at the hand of Aegon II / Jon, of course, which, I guess, would have been no real threat, considering the strength of the golden company and Jons ineptitude at military strategy/tactics)

Yeah, she blows up a church but respects a negotiation. Not very Cersei like.

They really should pay more attention... a Starbucks cup on the table...



I didn't know they had a Starbucks in Winterfell

[BeBMan]

Maybe it's called StarkBucks in GoT.

I am hoping the books have a better ending.

I'm thinking he's toast well before he finishes and you will be waiting a long time.

The scene where the incestious kingslayer started following the panzer in order to boing her for the first time and the dwarf started filling the red beareded northener's cup with wine has got to be one of the funniest ever in TV series.
I literally laughed out loud
