GAME OF THRONES - PART 8 - *NO BOOK TALK - READ THE RULES*

Glory wrote:At this point I have decided to just enjoy whatever's coming my way really. Tyrion going from Dragonstone to KL,having a touching reunion with his brother and then back to Dragonstone just like that. Damn too easy and convenient. Its pointless talking about plot holes anymore.

Now its more of a Hollywood style popcorn flick clearly favoring the main characters and keeping them alive for the final showdown. Ever since Olenna revealed the truth about Joffrey's murder and told Jaime to tell Cersie, it was clear as a day nothing will happen to Jaime (even if its a bloody dragon, or getting drowned with armour on his body that stands in his way) till he completes that mission. Its that easy and obvious now the writing. GoT used to be damn unpredictable once upon a time. Now its not sadly.

So I guess the best solution is to suspend disbelief and simply enjoy the damn thing while it lasts. View it purely as a spectacle.

What irked me was how rushed the Jaime-Tyrion reunion was, especially because how well the actors acted. Should have been one of the best moments of the season but it ended abrupt as hell.

And seriously, no scene of Tyrion and Bronn?

So its either find a way to bring these people together, or fight alone and surely die. It's reasonable.

She might not even be pregnant.

She will not get another child by any means. She's all about fulfilling that prophecy she received when she was a child

Take the dragons, destroy the red keep, go North.
Seriously we're talking about many months of travel. The WW might have a reason not to attack but Jon doesn't know about it. He's traveling thousands of miles up and down while the enemy is chilling right in front of his base.

You do realise they don't have much time left, right? No point spending too many minutes when you can achieve the same point in less time. I personally have no problem with the Jaime-Tyrion reunion. Didn't need to see Bronn-Tyrion either. We have bigger fish to fry.

It would be much more logical and faster to send a raven to Tormund, tell him to send a scout mission and capture a wight, and to ship him south. But oh well, it's a TV show.

Jon has always been leading by example. Wouldn't fit his character to not go there.

That would be bad writing imo.

Also not bad that it's gonna result in an awesome episode next week.

I have a bad feeling about this... the trailers made it look like Jon is the only survivor.

I need the Gendry/Jon bromance to continue.

No point? Don't need? Wtf, important character scenes is not needed because we don't have time? Thats no excuse you either make time or manage your time better. An extra five minutes would have accomplished all of that.

What's the point really? Bronn and Tyrion are just going to throw funny quips at each other. The Jaime-Tyrion reunion served its purpose considering they were on opposing sides of a war and there was hardly any room for hugs and kisses. Your point would have made more sense if you talked about Jorah and Jon talking for longer, especially about Jeor Mormont and Longclaw - which Jon clearly had on him and Jorah had to have recognized.
