General / Off-Topic Game of Thrones

Anyone been watching the latest season?

Personally I think its been the best yet.

The last two episodes in particular were amazing.


At last, the question i had kept asking - "When is she going to use her dragons?" was answered!!

Oh yes.....the last two have been amazing. series is far too short.

Ten episodes is actually the perfect amount. British series have traditionally been 6 episodes long, which for something like Game Of Thrones is far too short, and American seasons (their term for the British series) are traditionally 24 episodes long, far too many for this, as you'd get bored by about half way through a season. A 24 episode season works for something where each episode is not connected to the previous one, take Friends or Star Trek TNG as examples, while they have chronology and a long story arc, each episode is it's own story, not something that Game of Thrones has.

Here's my thoughts on the latest season
I hate Ramsay Bolton and want Reek/Theon to kill him

Disappointed Bran isn't in this season at all

Arya isn't doing well at becoming a "Faceless Man/Woman"

I lost some sympathy for Stanis Baratheon

Cersei getting locked up surprised me, if she gets out, she's going to kill the Faithful Militant ... to Quote Emperor Palpatine, she's going to wipe them out ... all of them.

I'm expecting Tyrion, Jorah & co to be dead, killed by those in masks after the dragon flew off

And the white walkers are coming, and the wall won't stop them.

Alien, you need a double spoiler on your first point. It's not a spoiler to anyone who's watched the show, but it is to someone who's up to date with the show but not read the books!

I actually succumbed because I hate him so much too.

I looked online, but I'm still none the wiser!

I don't understand how talking about the number of episodes in a season is a spoiler.

I was talking with a friend on Skype about the last episode ... the TV series has now caught up with the books, and while some things are different, we'll now be in the situation of the TV series being spoilers for the books.

and yes, very shocking episode.
 
Shocking but also pleasing --
now Jon has a possible way out of that pesky Night's Watch vow.

I only made it halfway through book 4 because it was so dull! But, they made two series out of book three (series 3 and 4) and, from what you've said there, only one series out of books 4 and 5 combined? Really? I guess they really were overly long-winded! ;)

GRRM will never leave you with a mere loaf, when he can instead offer a fragrant, crusty, fresh loaf of castle-baked bread :)

And don't go liking that loaf or it'll get killed off (not a spoiler, this has been known about GoT for a long time)
