ChiefsPlanet - Movies and TV Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8

Jorah had the subtle 'you damned idiot' face when Dany was talking about how she killed Sam's family.

Seriously, Dany without advisers is a freaking idiot and politically reeruned. Tywain or Littlefinger would of danced circles around her.

Sucks for Sam, but I don't completely disagree with Dany's actions. It's war. She can't take a bunch of prisoners, she needs them to bend the knee. When that story gets around, people she defeats will not be taking the position that the Tarly's took. Sometimes putting the fear into them sends a message that ends up resulting in fewer people dying in the end.

It's like bombing japan in WWII. Sucks to kill all those people, but the net result was their surrender saved millions of lives.

You should read up on that.

Did anyone get a good enough look at the weapon design Arya gave Gendry to tell what it was? I couldn't make it out, but I'm sure it'll be something cool.

I presumed Ice.

I don't think he can work with Valyrian steel though.

But Jaime and Brienne have the two swords that Tywin had made from Ice. If he has any knowledge of how to work it, he could melt the two swords back down and recreate Ice. I'm not sure why; who wields it at that point? But it's there as a possibility.

I didn't get that good of a look at it; I presumed that was a tang and a hilt w/ the blade to be added to it. I'm probably wrong. re-forming Ice would be pretty damn on the nose for a show that's generally anything but.

Well that's interesting.

I'm sorry. They were prisoners. No weapons, no nothing. All she had to do was have a Dothraki knock his behind out and roasted Randall by himself.

The long-awaited return of Game of Thrones proved to be a milestone for HBO, which enjoyed an all-time ratings record. Entertainment Weekly reports the Season 8 premiere drew in more than 17 million viewers across live broadcast and streaming platforms.

This was not only the highest turnout for any HBO show in history, it also scooped the biggest ratings of the year out from under CBS’s The Big Bang Theory, whose recent episodes raked in over 14 million viewers in early February.

Yeah, no joke. I signed up about an hour before the episode aired, and I will cancel about an hour after the final one does. :)
