Hopefully it’s a real battle at least and not Devan saying “there isn’t going to be a siege, your grace”
Davos silently following her around to make sure she died was maybe my favorite part of episode 3. It was such a mix of hilarious and sad and dramatic.
I’m going to Girona today and part of the tour is visiting some of the filming locations. A couple years ago I got to go to a couple locations down in Seville and I went to Iceland last fall and saw a couple there as well. Game of Tourism is real and I’m not even doing this on purpose.
Snagged these in case anyone else was interested: Tour guide said a lot of season six Braavos was filmed on these stairs/in that church (which is closed to the public.) Jaime Lannister rides up this on a white horse in season six. This has been used for multiple King’s Landing shots throughout the series. But they were very adamant that the shame scene was shot in Dubrovnik (They’re preparing for a huge local flower festival hence all the weird art installations. The flowers all come in tonight/tomorrow for the weekend.)
The memes about it are amazing, but it sucks that Sansa is getting so much hate for doing the same things that people like Tyrion or Varys or others get huge amounts of credit for.
I’ve seen a lot of people praise Sansa for what she did. She told the right people on purpose, and unfortunately she did learn a lot from Littlefinger.
There’s been both, but some of the jokes are much less on the funny side and the comments about them even worse.
Nah dragons were long gone by then. Robert's Rebellion takes place in roughly 280 AC (After Conquest--when Aegon the Conqueror showed up), and the last of the dragons died in 153 AC
ADWD has tons and tons of pages about how Dany is stranded in the desert and has diarrhea and it's still way better than AFFC except the very end with the LSH reveal which redeems it
lol yeah those chapters draaaaaagggged omg. One plotline I am very happy the showrunners sped up was Dany getting found by the Dothraki. Has that even happened in the books yet actually? Or was that the last Dany chapter, her spotting Dothraki riders on the horizon?
Those diarrhea chapters made me question if I’d wasted the hours of my life I’d spent reading those books to that point
Everyone talk more about Davos or Shireen or Gilly or something else amazing in the books because “diarrhea chapters” is terrifying me.
A good poop story is when Belwas decapitates a man and then defecates and wipes himself clean with the dead man's cloak.
I knew I remembered something being extremely boring in Dance haha, but I said Mereen earlier instead of just strictly Dany's chapters. Mereen itself was pretty interesting with Barristan and Brown Ben and Quentin and Tyrion and etc. Davos' chapters in Dance are great too. Trying to get followers for Stannis, revealing the possible Grand Northern Conspiracy against the Boltons, etc.
I thought the diarrhea comment was hyperbolic and funny. Do they literally describe that she has diarrhea? Hahaha
The whole Game of Thrones story / phenomena is in such a weird place right now where the original author won't (or can't, if you're being generous) finish the story in the books, and the people in charge of the show have just decided to get it over with as quickly as possible and are rushing through it at a breakneck pace.
I finally figured out why I have a hard time calling GRRM a great: he put the far more interesting characters on the far less interesting continent. Essos is what’s up, but all the views we have of it barring Arya in Braavos suck. Thinking specifically of Tyrion sailing through that abandoned city on the river with the straw man not in the show at all.
