re: Game of Thrones S8 E4 "The Last of the Starks" Official Thread

And the defender of fictional black characters looks exactly like you'd predict.

Also for anyone complaint about Sam’s plot armor:

You do what Lord Commander Mormont says

But Jamie gave his Valyrian steel sword to Brienne when she and Pod the rod took off to find the Stark girls.

He gave her Oathkeeper. He is carrying Widow’s Wail.

And no one has mentioned the fact that they were forged from Ice, the Stark family sword. Guess they're all over it.

We knew that the Bronn situation needed to be resolved, but the way they've gone about it has been clumsy and really out of place. The way Tyrion and Jaime looked at each other when he left the room, they didn't seem to think it was serious. If this show sticks to reality, I'd expect to see him captured by a large group of soldiers and strung up. He may be a great swordsman, but he's not one of the more cunning schemers in Westeros. That is certainly what would happen in the real world if he walked into that situation and made those threats.

BTW, we never heard him get offered Riverrun, so it's either a lie or we're to assume he later talked to Cersei and she promised it to him. Either way, I don't think he's ever going to be the lord of anything. He's not important to the story and he just threw his only virtues out the window.

The episode 5 battle is looking like it will be similar to the Quiddich World Cup from Harry Potter, with all of the various teams showing up. That MAY be where we finally see the Reeds, who clearly have not figured into the Jon story and are now irrelevant. But we didn't see them at the battle of Winterfell, so who knows?

And the Glovers are going to have to go down. They've pussied out not once but twice. I don't think the show would have made a point to have them betray the Starks once again if they weren't going to have them suffer some consequences.

This scene made absolutely zero sense to me, in fact the entire bronn scene felt so forced. we've experienced him save both tyrion and jamie's life in the past. the way they portrayed their relationships in that scene was as if bronn had just met them for the first time ever.

Disregarding the fact of how unlikely it was that Bronn could just sneak into winterfell with a giant crossbow, luckily walk into a room with JUST tyrion and jamie, and walk out unscathed, i would've expected for the dialogue to be lighthearted with some jokes between them at first and then bronn nonchalantly mention he was there to kill them. Instead they had Bronn go scorched earth and act completely out of character.

Trying not to beat a dead horse, but the writing this season is terrible.

This video is hilarious
