HBO: Game of Thrones (Song of Ice and Fire)

[malice]

Sansa turning the meeting into an opportunity to accuse and pass judgement on little finger was the only real surprise of the season for me. The ice dragon stuff is all kind of meh for me

Ha, yeah it was a surprise because the show did everything in its power to mislead you. His death was satisfying to watch, but the viewer's route there was a bunch of horseshit.

Respectfully disagree.

I had multiple conversations with people about how Arya was behaving strangely and that something was up. A lot of folks picked up on small clues, even if they didn't see this particular thing coming. My co-worker and I talked about it in the afternoon and then I had a separate conversation with my wife, that she initiated, about the same thing. It was clear they were up to something.

This was discussed a bit on RM too. It wasn't a surprise at all; it was more of a "Are they actually going to go this route, and do it this poorly?" Or that was my experience anyway. There was just not much to savor about it.

I'm confused. You said it was a surprise in your earlier post. Now you're saying you talked about it on RM and so it wasn't a surprise at all?

I said it was a surprise to me, i think trag said it was only because they tried to make the viewer think otherwise

oh heavens no!

I was defending your honor, mary malice. Trag basically called you an idiot and I will not abide that kind of slander.

How very dare you

[MissYouAllDay]

a lot would need to happen for his legitimacy to even be considered. It can't just be "Bran and Sam say its true, so it'll happen"

so? Why does any of this matter now?

I don't know, but it'll probably be for dumb reasons on the show

With him and Dany as a couple it probably means a lot less than it could have. Still it gives them/him a sort of legitimacy with everyone (the people and nobles) apart from Cersei, should they/he survive the great war.

It's also easier for Sansa to be warden of the north.

I feel like people forget Varys's riddle to Tyrion about where true power comes from. Basically, the noble houses make a decision as who to follow as king. Those noble houses only have known him as Jon Snow, Ned Stark's bastard. I think it would take something more than a high septon's diary and the word of his "brother" who speaks mysteriously of visions to put him in a position of power in light of his parentage. Being a legitimate Targaryean has to mean something more to the overall story and I'll keep saying so until the show/books give me a reason otherwise. It just wouldn't make sense.

He could lead one of the dragons into battle. Only targareans can do that, right?

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That's what I'm thinking, but we don't know for sure about that

I didn't call malice an idiot and I resent the accusation.

Not what i thought either. I think joey is a little cranky today. Just agree with him it'll all work out fine

Stop being an asshole, trag. You know good goddamn well that I've never been right about anything in my entire life!
