never forget

 

Carl Fookin Tanner

he actually wasn’t such a bad guy in Turn

 

I remember him most as the scientist in the It's Always Sunny episode Flowers for Charlie lol

 

That’s interesting I didn’t know he was on Sunny. He also starred along side Charlie in Pacific Rim.

 

he was in a movie this year that really leans into his vibe

 

Randomly watched an episode of season 2 a few weeks ago. Just finished season 4. Why must I be this way?!


First time rewatching these episodes though since they first aired. Still some good stuff on here. Really gonna be weird if winds comes out because the show and books are merged in to one story in my mind. So many storylines I’ve forgotten or will misremember.

 

i just started s3 on my first rewatch

 

It won’t don’t worry

 

I know. Sigh

 

david is afraid of the truth

 

i'm on my first ever rewatch and i just finished season 6. battle of the bastards and winds of winter was some of the best television ever created. truly absurd how high the highs were for this show.

 

Yeah I like s6.

 

The highs were insanely high. I've never had more jaw-dropping moments while watching a show.

Never had more eye-rolls/facepalms either but I digress

 

The build up and music in Kings Landing to start The Winds of Winter was just insanely well done. And the Jon reveal/king in the north scene felt so good when it finally happened.

 

I was high (maybe one of like 5 times I've ever been high in my life) at the conclusion of the Tower of Joy scene and I cried at the reveal LMAO

 

honestly dont blame you. the way they did that cut from the baby to jon was incredible.

 

Yeah the crescendoing music, young Ned staring at the baby, into Jon's face and the House Stark theme kicking in definitely gave me goosebumps.

 

....and just the thought of all that still makes me mad that Jon doesn't become king lol. I know GRRM has a thing for not having the usual tropes play out in his novel, but still.

I just hope his ending is better in the novels than what we got in the show, though I suppose, at least for show Jon, being with the wildlings north of the wall is probably the happiest ending for him. It's where he's wanted to truly be since probably season 4. The King Beyond the Wall. (though tbf if the Westerosi world reverted back to normal politics after Bran was crowned, the Iron Throne and/or Queen in the North could theoretically try to press their claims north of the wall now that it'll presumably become a little bit more habitable with the Night King gone lol)

 

“His ending” - a lot of optimism you’re putting into George that’s he’s ever gonna release another GOT book.

 

whether or not the book gets published, GRRM definitely has his own ending in mind.

 

Dude played the long con but also wrote himself into a corner.

If the show ending was actually good, he might have felt vindicated and perhaps compelled to finish it in his own words. Or maybe he'd be like "that was my ending and everyone liked it so no need to write it"

But since the show ending sucked, he can pivot and say "oh jk that wasn't actually my ending, here's what really happens" and then blows everyone away with a different ending.

none of that matters tho since it will never be finished

 

I

Struggling to watch season 7. It’s not great.

 

yeah not looking forward to the rest of my rewatch...

 

I remember not minding most of the choices, just the speed and whiplash from it all. Sigh.
