    Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 "The Last of the Starks"

    She knows he is the nominal leader of the North. And she should know from rumours and spies that there are divided loyalties among their people as to who's really in charge? We know that they have spies in the north as Qyburn knew really fast about the army of the dead heading towards Winterfell.

    Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 "The Last of the Starks"

    In the words of my father: "You know the real reason why Arya said no to Gendry is because she's all about the reality of the situation. Dany can't make him a lord. She's always assuming things are true before they are. She's not the queen, and it's possible she never will be."

    Divide and conquer? If either Jon or Dany dies, the other becomes stronger as most of the disputes between their sides evaporate.

    Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 "The Last of the Starks"

    There's a general problem on the show with the incredible accuracy of bows overall. Last episode we got a scene where Arya shooting a wight threatening Sandor was treated as an amazing shot. But was it really? Jamie's archers were able to hit a flying dragon. Theon was shooting ravens out of...

    Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 "The Last of the Starks"

    That scene made the least sense of everything this season. After all that Jon and Ghost went through that is what the show leaves us with?

    Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 "The Last of the Starks"

    Bronn did use one all by himself, and re-armed it rather quickly. The ones used against Dany's fleet do have whole teams using them. I just realized that I accidentally said that Ghost was with Robb. Shame. :p

    Around the time that I graduated from there this little show began to air: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ah34t_Sdis Edit: and to those perceptive amongst you, yes indeed it is 3 am here, and I am having trouble sleeping. But it is sunday so that's fine.

    If guesses were tresses there'd be all those messes on mornings with all that bed hair.

    I guess. *shrug* I'm just living in such a super different world now that I'm not even sure if I could relate to meeting myself from back then. It's almost like somewhere along the line I turned into my dad (and he says that too).

    On friday I got a card (like an actual card in my mailbox, not an email or anything) for what basically amounts to an invitation to a high school reunion (lukio, I think that's high school level, probably). Is it bad that I feel no compulsion to actually go there? It was two decades ago. I...

    GAME OF THRONES SEASON 8--Final Run-- Part 3

    Earlier this week on reddit they linked to a news article by the cinematographer defending the lighting choices with basically "I know the episode wasn't too dark because I shot it" (the Business Insider site they link to is loaded with pop-up nonsense). Well, now someone there mapped out the...

    GAME OF THRONES SEASON 8--Final Run-- Part 3

    They were already stretched thin on everything, including time. I don't think there was more they could have done. And the dothraki were supposed to be invincible on an open field. That's what everyone said, and I think they really would believe that.

    GAME OF THRONES SEASON 8--Final Run-- Part 3

    It was a massacre, but a surprisingly mild massacre for the main cast. I expected way more characters lost. I'd say that Melisandre, Arya and Theon were the MVP trio of the episode. Only three episodes left. Me sad.

    GAME OF THRONES SEASON 8--Final Run-- Part 2

    - "When the sun rises in the west and sets in the east" : This was long thought to be a reference to Quentyn Martell, but they haven't even shown him on the tv show. Trystane was on the show, but he traveled south to north, so the whole thing is problematic. I suppose they could argue that...
