re: Was anyone else disappointed with GoT's last episode "Home"? (Spoilers)

And you bring up another weak plot point! Think about it...Melisandre, Davos, and his men were trapped in Jon's room. Thorne had them surrounded. Davos and everyone in the room felt if they opened the door they were as good as dead.
Which brings me to my point: Why didn't Melisandre birth another demon baby to assassinate Thorne and his men? Why did she and Davos feel helpless in that situation? Davos witnessed her birth the demon Stannis baby which killed Renley. You're telling me that she couldn't have performed more dark magic to kill Thorne and his men?
I understand that her confidence took a big blow following Stannis' death, but she is still a powerful witch.
It makes no sense.

I completely agree with you. Thought it was weak that Davos is the one who has to convince Mel to do something.

See, now you've just gone too far.

Why? Because I share a different opinion than you and the fan boys?

It was established pretty well shortly after the demon baby that she has to have king's blood to make that happen. She can't just spawn them out of her cooch like a Pez dispenser.
And the episode was awesome. It covered a lot of ground, set into motion all kinds of crazy shite and was as enjoyable as it was shocking.

I wouldn't have filmed the Jon Snow scene like that. The scene was too predictable. Hell, the entire episode was predictable the moment Davos asked Melisandre if she could resurrect Jon Snow. The episode made it abundantly clear that Jon would be soon resurrected. The Red Witch and everyone in the room acting like she failed was just too melodramatic because the viewers already assumed he was coming back.
I wouldn't necessarily say it was predictable. They mentioned earlier to get the funeral pyre ready. I some what thought the resurrection would fail and he would be burned then come back to life in the fire.

I'd say you're better than this, but you really aren't.
Your trolling makes Rex look like a good poster.

I'm pretty sure she needed king's blood to perform some of the darker magic, so not sure your "she should just make a demon baby" holds much water.

I thought it would have been cool had the camera done exactly had it did at the end but instead of showing him wakimg up it cuts to black and then after a 5 count (off camera) you hear one big gasp of air. Cut to credits.

I was hoping you forgot you ever heard of TD and were never coming back.

I agree.
Anything other than the re-creation of Avatar's last scene would've been better!

The only thing I thought would have been a little cooler would be if Ghost had more of a part to play. I know he makes sounds in the show, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't howl. Just thought it would be cool if he howled or growled or something, and that made Jon wake up (not resurrected him, just gave him that last little push). Then it's like he's got some Red God magic and some old god magic

The demon baby is just an example. The point is that Melisandre can perform great magic with or without king's blood.
She wasn't even trying to help the situation. Davos and his men had a weapon of mass destruction (Melisandre) sitting in the room with them but no one thought, "Hey, maybe we should ask Melisandre to perform some kind of magic to help us out!"
And if king's blood is all she needs to perform incredible dark magic...well Jon's body was just laying there begging to be used. She could've had sex with his corpse or simply drained his blood. Whatever.

no its because you intentionally go out of your way to start threads on topics you know will make people react, even if you don't agree with the content, then you constantly post replies challenging others on the opinion. People can have different opinions sure but like I said you don't really believe these things you just like to start them because you are bored at work, I don't blame you too much because im bored too( which is why im even responding) but like i said you don't even believe this you are just trying to get a reaction. you are a great troll but a terrible person.
Posted on 5/6/16 at 9:53 am to mizzoukills
Who says Melisandre knows for a fact that Jon has king's blood in him? We don't even know yet if the speculation is correct with regards to Jon's lineage. Another leap by you to support your ridiculous assertions of what should have happened. Whatever.

Oh I absolutely believe this! What's amazing is that you believe I don't.
I will once again go on record by saying that the Game of Thrones episode "Home" was, in my opinion, a very weak episode...especially Jon's resurrection.
I'm not the only one who thinks this, by the way.

Melisandre knows. The moment she met Jon she knew who he really is. That's pretty well established.
