They’re expecting to lose something like 35% of their subscribers when the show ends

Also, I think Dani’s comment in next weeks preview about the dead already being there is in reference to the crypts maybe?

At the beginning it said Brief Nudity and didn’t also say Sex. That generally just means man butt

Meh. I’m just along for the ride at this point. Too much effort to get pissed with only a few eps left and nothing has really been done “wrongly” in the first two eps.

I think her reaction in that scene, as well as her two Sansa scenes are setting Dany up for a meltdown.

She was too much of a bitch to tell Sansa, sure y’all can have the North after all you’ve been through. Then, she was obviously jealous as frick at Theon’s loyalty to Sansa. Lastly, she was essentially accusing Bran and Sam of forming some lie to start a coup against her so Jon can be the true heir.

I’m telling y’all, she’s going full Targaryen by the end of the season and they’ll have to put her down. She’s going to fly off the rails.


Yea, i’ve made lots of excuses for her but everything you said, i think you may be right.

I get that people are upset that show doesn't seem to have "intelligent dialogue" as much and think there have been a lot of dumb-it-down moments for the audience, but Jon telling Dany the truth is a poor example to criticize. He absolutely needed to explain that whole ordeal in blunt detail. It's not like Dany has access to Google and would know what happened at the Tower of Joy. Comparing that to Jaime and Brann's interaction is apples and oranges.

In the books, Brienne is a bit of a basket case who is worried men are just using her or trying to screw her for fun. That doesn't exactly scream for her to go around screwing for fun.

It's not for fun. It's so she can experience sex before she dies. And she isn't always dodging sex in the books. I don't know where you got that.

You asked for examples of her being attracted to Jaime. I gave you some.

How did none of them think that? Jon and some of the others have seen the NK easily raise the dead. Why didn’t it cross any of their minds that putting all the non-soldiers in crypt full of dead people (even the skeletons can be brought back) might be a bad idea?

Aren’t they in tombs down in the crypts? I’d assume that would be hard to get out of.

Don’t feel that way.

And don’t let anyone else’s criticism, mine included, take away from your enjoyment of the show.

I’m hoping the crypts are sealed and the entrance is protected by magic like the weirwood tree entrance was that bran went into. Like maybe they seal them up like vampire crypts.

i havent read a single word of any of the books, but ive seen a bunch of references to there being a shite ton of magic down in those crypts? the show has never had the time to address it but maybe they will now?
