03.30.16 | Hope they make a big comeback after Season Five, Three and Four were outstanding but last season was lacking except for Hardholme. |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | im so freakin hyped dude
and after a rewatch, i have to say, season 5 is still pretty great. I've noticed the middle is where the majority of the problems are. Ep 2,3,7,8,9, and 10(kinda) were all fantastic. The thing with season 5 is that when they got it right it was wonderful but if they didn't hit the nail on the head it was a complete mess |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | here's to hoping they pull a fullmetal alchemist and not a LOST... |
Trebor.
03.30.16 | Season 5 was irredeemably bad I refuse to watch this season especially because it might spoil Winds of Winter |
jayfatha
03.30.16 | Hardholme is top 5 GoT episodes if u ask me |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Yeah I agree with that. Jon Snow suddenly became the most interesting character whilst the Jamie/Bron adventure time was just weird, though probably worse because I read the books first. Planning a rewatch in the next couple of weeks so maybe I'll enjoy it more second time round |
Trebor.
03.30.16 | "You want a good girl, but you need a bad pussy"
unquestionably the worst line of dialogue in tv history, and it won the emmy for best writing. what the fuck is happening with the world today |
Flugmorph
03.30.16 | when will it begin? |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Yeah but Trebor they've already started spooling WoW what with Shireen burning and Stannis confirmed dead. I'd rather read the book but if not it'll get spoilers at work or some shit so I'm watching the show. |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | fairly certain D&D said that theyre diverging from the books quite considerably so book readers don't have too much to worry about. And totally quitting a show because of a single bad season is a little silly |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Haha damn Trebor I'd erased that horror show of a line |
Trebor.
03.30.16 | Shireen is not gonna burn in the books dude
Also what happened with Stannis might not be the same in the book either |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Apparently GRRM confirmed she burns... He could just be fuckin with us though |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | season 5 definitely had its fair share of bad moments (primarily dorne) but the events at the wall and kings landing were very entertaining. Stannis' stuff was OK, brienne plotline was just OK, and daenerys' story hasnt been good since she got the unsullied |
Shemson
03.30.16 | I hope he doesn't burn her though, show Stannis sucks compared to book Stannis even though the actor plays him brilliantly |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | didnt the pink letter confirm stannis is dead tho? havent read the books in ages... |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Yeah tacos I was well on team dany after the 'dracarys' moment but since then she's been so annoying |
Shemson
03.30.16 | That's the thing with the books, lots of stuff is implied but you don't know for sure |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | dillane WAS stannis, the problem was how D&D changed his character to be more...idk...desperate i guess? |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | asoiaf forums blew up when shireen burned. book stannis wouldnt do that which turned a lot of people off. It was definitely shocking and well shot but i feel as tho it may have been better for stannis' character to have had mel or his wife do it behind his back or something |
Nazzadan
03.30.16 | CLEGANE BOWL |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | GET HYPE. |
Shemson
03.30.16 | yeah I loved Dillane but the show seems desperate to make him the big bad villain when really he does have the truest claim to the throne after Robert dies and he just wants what's his |
Shemson
03.30.16 | I think season six is too soon for CLEGANEBOWL unless a tonne of stuff happens right from the start but it must happen eventually |
Trebor.
03.30.16 | the books are all about characters reaching a clarity about peace and stuff, but the show is fucking dumb and doesn't have subtext so we might get Cleganebowl in the show even though it makes no sense |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | i feel like there is more to look forward to this season. Season 5, like the books, had to set up so much stuff. Now we can finally move on and start experiencing the climaxes to certain stories. And a big part of why season 5 was kinda meh was bc it felt rushed (esp ep 10). |
Shemson
03.30.16 | I dunno Trebor, even in the books the way the mountain treated the hound his whole life and them both being the two toughest fighters in kings Landing (Minus Ser Barristan) you knew they had to have a showdown someday. It makes perfect sense for the hounds character development. |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Also Ser Barristan getting killed by stupid sons of harpy was shit from the show |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | the show HAS to cut stuff treb, it would be impossible to make the show if they described every tiny bit of backstory and lore. Though I have to admit, im kinda bummed that the showrunners didn't incorporate the blackfire stuff, which is pretty important regarding some big theories |
Shemson
03.30.16 | Also interesting to see if they ever find a place for Lady Stoneheart. |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | highly doubtful but i kind of hope sansa merges with LSH in the show. She needs some damn vengeance already |
Shemson
03.30.16 | The show seems to be a fan of merging Sansa with other storylines so who knows!? |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | hype? Hype. |
tacos n stuff
03.30.16 | total fanboy but idgaf, i think its a damn fun ride im on with this show |
benkim
03.30.16 | They need to get rid of Cercei and the Sparrow shit. Her story has ended. No need spending another season on that crap |
benkim
03.30.16 | Oh and Sn5 was pure crap. Disappointing as the others were very good |
ZippaThaRippa
03.30.16 | I heard LSH would not be present in the show. They'd rather she stayed dead. I don't think violent revenge is really Sansa's forte. That's Arya's path, not Sansa's. Sansa might actually grow up to be someone clever and nice. And not a shitty murdering fuckhead. |
Trebor.
03.30.16 | "the show HAS to cut stuff treb, it would be impossible to make the show if they described every tiny bit of backstory and lore."
well that's the stuff that's interesting to me about ASOIAF so yeah, I don't care about the show anymore |
tacos n stuff
03.31.16 | you do you man, I cant force anyone to like something. The lore of the series is indeed fascinating though so i may not agree but i totally get it |
Shemson
04.24.16 | Hype time. You reckon they resurrect Snow in episode one or drag it out? I think this will be a good indication of what kind of series we're about to get. An episode one resurrection should mean they have plenty of content to spread amongst the other ten episodes if not... We could be in for another disappointment. |
Shemson
04.24.16 | My guess is that episode one ends the second he opens his eyes. I'd be cool with that. |
tacos n stuff
04.24.16 | im thinking its gonna be around episode 2 or 3
I just hope the end of the season doesn't feel too rushed like the last one. Ep 10 was nice but tried to cram waaaaaaaay too much stuff into a single episode |
JokineAugustus
04.25.16 | Wow those sand snakes are amazing! Perfect story line there! |
adr
04.25.16 | The sand snakes can fuck off.
That was predictable episode |
tacos n stuff
04.25.16 | everything except dorne was fine. Pretty expected tbh |
Nazzadan
04.25.16 | Talking while standing over a dead person: The episode.
also,
everything except dorne was fine. Pretty expected tbh [2] |
BeyondCosby
04.25.16 | The only part I disliked was the Dothraki dialogue and the shit with the sand snakes. I legit don't enjoy those characters but the part with the Dothraki just seemed forced. Jokes for the sake of jokes and the translation didn't seem to match up with previous seasons. The language was too fluid, not as gruff as I remember Dothraki being in season one and two. |
Deez
04.25.16 | yeah the Dialogue was pretty poor in some parts, Even that 'greedy bitch' line seemed so forced. |
Shemson
04.25.16 | Agreed, liked all the stuff except sand snakes... Which is weird seeing as they had two major murders... I guess I just don't care about Dorne since Oberyn died!
Overall a solid season opener- 7/10. |
Gameofmetal
04.25.16 | literally everything except dorne was great. dorne was trash and im one of the few that didnt outright hate its ark last season. |
hal1ax
04.25.16 | I liked the closing scene with melisandre |
ZippaThaRippa
04.25.16 | Pretty bullshit how that gigantic bodyguard died like a bitch |
Gameofmetal
04.25.16 | yea hotah is awesome in the books, so is doran |
ZippaThaRippa
04.25.16 | Also I have never liked how Jorah dresses like Jack Sparrow. |
Shemson
04.25.16 | I even really enjoyed Sansa and Theon's scene. Still feeling that he will do a dramatic sacrifice of his life for Sansa at some point and redeem himself. |
Shemson
04.25.16 | Also it's like they know that Dorne is super shit so they tried to entertain with unnecessary tits last season and now over the top murders like a spear through someone's face. |
ZippaThaRippa
04.25.16 | Yeah you gotta save the gore so that it's meaningful. Like Oberyn having his head crushed and his eyes gouged out. |
Shemson
04.25.16 | Exactly! That scene left me cold. Tyrion was a free man! Oberyn was going to avenge his sister! Then that... Her face, Cersei's face, Tyrion's face, Tywin sentencing his own son. Credits. Incredible scene. |
Deez
04.25.16 | whole lotta boys ready to knock one out over Milisandre tits got one hell of a suprise.
Hopefully they carried on like the men they aim to be. |
BeyondCosby
04.25.16 | I heard rumor that there are only like... seventeen episodes left? If they only do 10 episodes a season that leaves only seven for the next, and that doesn't seem like nearly enough to wrap up the show in the way it deserves. |
Shemson
04.25.16 | Haha is right Deezer!
Yeah Cosby I heard that too. To be honest though I like the fact that they don't want to make filler. If it takes 16 more episodes to finish the story properly then that is all I want to see. No more sand snake shit too please! |
Flugmorph
04.25.16 | so much hype |
hal1ax
04.25.16 | Melisandre's nipples are perfection |
Deez
04.25.16 | dem 400 yr old nips |
zakalwe
04.25.16 | Fucking nonsense |
