May 23, 2016 idk i think its cool that theons not a dumb s--- anymore lol same with sansa although, i REALLY hope she doesn't backstab/undermine Jon in any way
May 23, 2016 I could see that. I just find that having all of these major events happening together detracts from them all. I was on the fence at first, but it worked emotionally. That was possibly the hardest hitting death since Ned Stark and it had no reason to be.
May 23, 2016 d---. you missed it. -the fact that george planned this from the beginning (or at least we're meant to believe he did) -hodor fulfilling his purpose -hodor, the most innocent guy in the show, sacrificed -time travel loop being closed -we got a backstory, told in a clever way lol how was that rushed? you literally can't drag out hodor's death any longer -- it was beautiful.
May 23, 2016 lil finger (goat rap name) making that passing remark about jon as he left seemed ominous to me. i dont see her backstabbing jon but maybe like undermining him in some way that gets everyone f-----
May 23, 2016 When Waif told her that she'll never be a Faceless Man, it reminded me of when Snoop told Mike, "you were never one of us". Also, shoutout to Daenerys Stormborn, Zoner of Friends, telling Jorah with tears in her eyes, to go find a cure so she could continue friendzoning him.
May 23, 2016 i think they've been handling it pretty well so far. they've recently said that the end is in sight for the show and this season, more than any other, has been giving off that vibe For sure. cc: @Slyk Im not saying it didn't work emotionally -- it definitely did. poor guys whole life was basically in service to Bran's greater purpose. You could see the compassion on Bran's face when he realized that. Still think it was a bit corny lolol. But honestly it's a feeling that will probably pass during re-watches And nah The Viper/Rob & Catelyns deaths >>>
May 23, 2016 it was rushed because everything you just listed came to fruition in 5 mins lol what promise did hodor make btw? not sure what you mean there
May 23, 2016 not to take away from any of those deaths, but those were more whirlwind/shocker deaths than an emotional cry out for the character themselves.. viper we cared for the situation, but not necessarily the viper himself; rob/catelyn we cared due to a wide range of reasons, and maybe we actually cared about the character a bit, but they weren't as innocent as to where you didn't feel like it was a casualty of the war in process i duno...for me, i think it comes back to his innocence. i get if you disagree though -- this is very opinionated.
May 23, 2016 i dont want her to be a faceless man tbh its like, by principle, everything i dont want for her lol -- after hiding for the entire series i want her to be proud of who she is and to go k--- everyone on her d--- list screaming "HOUSE STARK" or w/e the f--- so hopefully she ends up f---ing up again and having to leave/escape? and then using her skills to go kick a---? idk I JUST WANT HER AND JON TO SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN
May 23, 2016 i think you misread that -- i said "purpose", not promise. and yeah, it unfolded quickly, but it was in play for a real real long time (and we were all too blind to see it until it happened). wasn't rushed. was planned masterfully.
May 23, 2016 i bet that when they finally see each other, she'll be the only one to know...that'll be so sad. she won't be able to say anything, let alone even show her own face.
May 23, 2016 speak for yourself m8 I cared more for the Viper than I ever did Hodor. Man the viper almost became my favorite character multiple times Nah i definitely dont disagree about Hodor's innocence -- there's nothing to disagree with there. It just didn't mean as much to me as, say, the Viper getting revenge for his sister or Catelyn never seeing her kids again (NEVER seeing arya at all before she died, never repairing her relationship with Jon etc).
May 23, 2016 wow i read that like 50x and read "promise" each time Im gonna avoid calling it "planned masterfully" when it honestly could've been something they came up with on the spot to help Bran escape and give Hodor a solid backstory lol. If they dragged it out for longer and had younger Hodor do some important s--- or something then maybe.
May 23, 2016 ok f--- me if this is what happens im done watching the show (he says for the 500th time since the show started) thats way too sad. i need jon and arya hugging and s---
May 23, 2016 i don't know about that. i have no idea where they're going. they're not the ones set on dany, euron is
May 23, 2016 i just assumed they took Euron's idea for themselves lol. And Dany's definitely more likely to work with Theon's sister than let some fuckboy try and marry her
