Game of Thrones Thread [View all] Baitball Blogger May 2019 OP

Looked like he was writing about Jon. Solly Mack May 2019 #1

Yes! Of course. My mistake. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #2

Jon never said he wouldn't tell his family. No betrayal. Solly Mack May 2019 #4

Yikes! Daenarys works swiftly. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #5

I bet he wished he WAS in water dixiegrrrrl May 2019 #204

I so want to see Tyrion get a baptism by fire, and come out clean and alive the way Baitball Blogger May 2019 #208

Oh, dear. Daenarys does not look good. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #3

Looks a lot like Viserys did. Solly Mack May 2019 #6

Oh, whoa! Baitball Blogger May 2019 #8

I want Samwell on the Iron Throne RandySF May 2019 #7

I just hope that Daenarys can stop herself. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #9

She can't. nt tblue37 May 2019 #54

Yup. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #57

I knew Varys would die. Solly Mack May 2019 #10

True colors...true colors...true colors...shining through. Solly Mack May 2019 #11

Damn. I thought it would take a lot to turn me against Dany. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #16

He had no choice. He's a man of the North. A Stark. Raised one by a man he loved and respected. Solly Mack May 2019 #23

It will be interesting to see what happens if she's pregnant. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #26

It is interesting isn't it! Solly Mack May 2019 #29

Indeed. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #31

Shit no! Baitball Blogger May 2019 #33

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Solly Mack May 2019 #12

Touching scene. Too bad it means death for one or both. Solly Mack May 2019 #13

Jaime should have stayed with Brienne. redwitch May 2019 #14

I think so too. Solly Mack May 2019 #15

Come on Arya! redwitch May 2019 #17

I'm nervous most of all. Solly Mack May 2019 #20

Well, we're going to find out if Tyrion has Targaryn DNA. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #18

How? Solly Mack May 2019 #21

If he walks out of the dragon fire, alive. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #22

That would be something to see. Solly Mack May 2019 #24

especially since NewJeffCT May 2019 #175

There is that. Solly Mack May 2019 #179

Cersei's prophecy was that she'd be killed by her younger brother. Jaime, her twin, was born tblue37 May 2019 #50

But tyrion is with the side that did kill her, in the end. dixiegrrrrl May 2019 #206

She attacks with the sun at her back. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #19

That was well done. So far. Solly Mack May 2019 #25

Cersei is as rational as ever. Solly Mack May 2019 #27

At this point, it's just a matter of who gets to kill Cersei. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #28

Cersei could kill herself. She's threatened to before. Solly Mack May 2019 #30

Jaime, who is the younger twin, will kill her, thus fulfilling the prophecy. nt tblue37 May 2019 #53

Most likely, yes. Solly Mack May 2019 #56

well, they fudged that one! shanny May 2019 #120

"But the bells aren't ringing." dixiegrrrrl May 2019 #205

Well, if you're talking about Trump, I prefer the saying, Baitball Blogger May 2019 #207

Don't fall for the bell ringing. Don't fall for it. Solly Mack May 2019 #32

I think Dany is fighting this war in her own way, but I also think that the seven kingdoms will not Baitball Blogger May 2019 #35

I'd have gone after Cersei too. The obvious target. Solly Mack May 2019 #37

And she has lost her ever-loving mind. Solly Mack May 2019 #34

Yup. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #36

Jon finds no honor in this. None. Without honor, Stark men do badly. They do badly keeping to their Solly Mack May 2019 #38

I'm just disappointed that, knowing the only rational outcome, it Baitball Blogger May 2019 #40

I don't know how this will end. But I want it over. All over. Solly Mack May 2019 #42

Yup. No happy ending. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #44

Bittersweet was how it was described by the players. Solly Mack May 2019 #47

I don't care for Jaime but to be killed by a Greyjoy? No! No! No! Solly Mack May 2019 #39

Yes, but there is one way to fulfill the prophecy. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #41

Jaime is still kicking. So far. Solly Mack May 2019 #43

Oh, dear. The hound was just seconds from a clean getaway. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #46

Greyjoy was like a cockroach. avebury May 2019 #84

I did so detest that character. Solly Mack May 2019 #87

He seriously didn't get the death he richly deserved. shanny May 2019 #122

he died the way any western dufus has.... SleeplessinSoCal May 2019 #141

Arya called the Hound by his real name. Solly Mack May 2019 #45

And the Hound marches to his destiny. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #48

The monster kills his maker. Foreshadowing? Solly Mack May 2019 #49

Looks like he has to go for the head. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #52

I said last week she might. So....maybe. There she is now. Solly Mack May 2019 #55

Interesting how Arya was taking the blows out in the street, parallel to what was happening to the Baitball Blogger May 2019 #59

Yes. Solly Mack May 2019 #60

Yes he is Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin May 2019 #139

Will he or won't he? Kingslayer. Queenslayer. Solly Mack May 2019 #51

If Daenerys kills Arya with that dragon I hope Jon feeds Dany to Ghost. Solly Mack May 2019 #58

Arya rises from the ashes. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #62

She looks bad though and still running. Solly Mack May 2019 #63

Not making wise choices, either, on behalf of other people. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #67

caring about others? kozar May 2019 #106

I think she finally learned the futility of blood revenge. Dave Starsky May 2019 #162

Sandor Clegane born of fire at his brother's hand returns to fire with his brother's body. Solly Mack May 2019 #61

Sad, poetic justice. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #64

I so loved the Hound. MuseRider May 2019 #177

I agree. Sad but fitting end. Solly Mack May 2019 #182

I think Arya just might kill a mad queen after all. Solly Mack May 2019 #65

Yup. Daenarys has green eyes? Baitball Blogger May 2019 #66

I believe so. Solly Mack May 2019 #68

Somebody needs to. shanny May 2019 #123

Yes, but it's still sad. Solly Mack May 2019 #125

Yes. But we should have seen this coming shanny May 2019 #127

I did see it coming. Never been a big fan of hers. Solly Mack May 2019 #130

Me neither. shanny May 2019 #131

I'm definitely on her side against Cersei and I cheered her other victories - to a degree. Solly Mack May 2019 #132

Warrior on a white horse rides. Solly Mack May 2019 #69

Hmmm....brings this to mind. Liberal Veteran May 2019 #76

You're probably onto something. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #80

It is a symbol of death...a white horse. In some myths. Solly Mack May 2019 #83

And, yet, none of us asked the logical question. How did a horse just magically appear, Baitball Blogger May 2019 #150

or if it is a Stallion. Solly Mack May 2019 #151

the whole story is full of magic. SleeplessinSoCal May 2019 #212

The doomed little girl had a toy white horse with blood on its legs. nt tblue37 May 2019 #213

Nobody seems to care that Jaime and Cersei are at the bottom of the heap. Solly Mack May 2019 #70

Wonder if Tyrion will get off without punishment. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #75

I think Tyrion survives. If only because of all the things Daenerys does not know. Solly Mack May 2019 #81

My guess: Dany tries to burn him but he doesn't burn because... Cuthbert Allgood May 2019 #111

Yup. my guess too. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #113

I agree with this theory kozar May 2019 #118

THIS! Zoonart May 2019 #176

Wow. Liberal Veteran May 2019 #71

Yes. :( Solly Mack May 2019 #72

No way mainstreetonce May 2019 #77

I meant in terms of the showrunners' contempt for the characters (nt) Recursion May 2019 #79

Looks like we're headed in that direction. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #82

It's not so much Starks as what they represent. Solly Mack May 2019 #86

Is there still an Iron throne? mainstreetonce May 2019 #88

a good observation,,,, nt kozar May 2019 #90

No kidding. The Keep looked destroyed. Solly Mack May 2019 #92

Didn't Dany have a dream where she destroyed the throne? Baitball Blogger May 2019 #95

Im not sure, Let me binge watch all, kozar May 2019 #97

It was a goal. Can't recall about a dream though. Solly Mack May 2019 #101

In the House of the Undying? shanny May 2019 #128

When the mages captured her. She walked through the destroyed throne room as snow fell. nt tblue37 May 2019 #215

Remember Dany's dream when the mages captured her? She walked through the tblue37 May 2019 #214

I do see complications if Dany rules without the approval of the seven kingdoms. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #91

She could live to rule and put Jon and Arya to death. Solly Mack May 2019 #100

every thread I read here kozar May 2019 #102

I enjoy the guessing. I want it to be over though. Solly Mack May 2019 #105

I do too,but kozar May 2019 #108

I never thought I would say this MuseRider May 2019 #178

I need the break. I really do. Still want those books though. :) Solly Mack May 2019 #180

Me too. MuseRider May 2019 #183

My biggest desire from both the series and the books Solly Mack May 2019 #190

I've weaned myself off just about every series I ever regularly watched, so yeah, I'm ready too. hlthe2b May 2019 #203

I finally was able to do that. MuseRider May 2019 #209

Yup.. I will be switching to podcasts and audible books. hlthe2b May 2019 #210

Hmmm...interesting. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #98

Best recap of audience reaction. We are going back and forth. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #96

Lots of foreshadowing in that season! Hela May 2019 #110

OH DAMN!!! kozar May 2019 #112

Watching for the second time. I'm a glutton. Solly Mack May 2019 #114

oh no!! kozar May 2019 #116

I really want the books finished. Until they are...binge watching from the beginning is next. Solly Mack May 2019 #119

we actually binged kozar May 2019 #121

At least, in the interim. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #149

I'm going to buy the eight season B;u-ray set RandySF May 2019 #137

What do you expect to find? Baitball Blogger May 2019 #142

Some spectacular moments, but NewJeffCT May 2019 #145

About the comment, "The Last of the Starks." Baitball Blogger May 2019 #146

I had to completely sever the books from the show to enjoy the show. Solly Mack May 2019 #147

Oh, and, yes, I would have wanted more background on Dany's madness. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #148

She knows the Westerosians don't (and will never) love and trust her... Dave Starsky May 2019 #153

So who will be mainstreetonce May 2019 #155

Would it surprise you if it were Tyrion? Dave Starsky May 2019 #156

Maybe mainstreetonce May 2019 #158

She never tried with Westeros NewJeffCT May 2019 #164

Sansa killed Ramsay not Jon. n/t MuseRider May 2019 #200

He beat Ramsay one and one NewJeffCT May 2019 #202

Arya's difference to the episode: she got Sandor through the Lannister perimeter. eShirl May 2019 #218

I just feel used as a fan... FarPoint May 2019 #152

Beyond the visuals, the show hasn't been very good since the books ended coti May 2019 #160

I totally agree... FarPoint May 2019 #172

Yet another good series that went one season too far. dixiegrrrrl May 2019 #211

Fanservice. Unfortunately. nt tblue37 May 2019 #216

I guess that I'm in the minority, but I felt that this was an amazing episode that saved the entire Yavin4 May 2019 #157

I agree that the episode was well written. mainstreetonce May 2019 #159

Very nicely put. Dave Starsky May 2019 #161

Thank you. Some of the criticism is that the show did not explain her turn. Yavin4 May 2019 #165

"Loses it" isn't motivation coti May 2019 #171

She already did that when she went North. Yavin4 May 2019 #184

Maybe all those upset at her predictable turn to the "mad: are the new parents who named their baby hlthe2b May 2019 #174

Daenerys' actions were totally unmotivated, it wasn't good storytelling coti May 2019 #163

See my post at #165 Yavin4 May 2019 #166

They were perfectly motivated. BlueTsunami2018 May 2019 #169

Great episode. BlueTsunami2018 May 2019 #167

Completely agree. Yavin4 May 2019 #168

Too soon. Baitball Blogger May 2019 #170

Dany going Mad Queen isn't the problem(s) I have with the episode. Cuthbert Allgood May 2019 #173

I suppose everyone sees it as they want. BlueTsunami2018 May 2019 #194

Had no problem with the last episode awesomerwb1 May 2019 #181

She lost two dragons before this battle. Yavin4 May 2019 #185

Yes, I already posted that Arya will be the one to deactivate Daenerys... Rollo May 2019 #217

There were tactical reasons as well for killing the civilians exboyfil May 2019 #186

Arya will be the one to kill Danearis ... Rollo May 2019 #187

Rewatching right now MuseRider May 2019 #192

I'm thinking there is more going on there as well NewJeffCT May 2019 #193

Yes to the possible poisoning mainstreetonce May 2019 #195

Davos wasn't arrested. I think you are confusing Varys... hlthe2b May 2019 #197

Just finished. MuseRider May 2019 #198

So apparently we all missed that Varys was trying to poison Daenarys hlthe2b May 2019 #196
