Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8
About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that... For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link Last edited by keg in kc; 06-21-2017 at 10:48 AM.. |

It was a little weird to see Jaime riding the horse along the beach in 1" of water toward the dragon, and fall off the horse and somehow sink 20' down...

With the Stark family getting the party back together, has it occurred to anyone else that this ended up being a brilliantly-cloaked, pretty standard trope fantasy?
A bunch of young kids lose their parents. They go out into the world, get split up by the bad guys, gain a bunch of crazy new skills, and end up saving the world. Not complaining. It's actually kind of impressive. |

Not only are there a large number of baddies but they are all extremely well constructed and each with a real possibility of assuming power over the whole thing. If it weren't for his horrendous pace... this series would eclipse LotR as my favorite fantasy series. |

Robb Stark is set up to be the heir apparent after Ned's tragic death. It doesn't work out, in fact, it gives the appearance that GRRM is flipping the standard tropes of fantasy. What sets Martin apart is that his universe was so massive that the other children instead take up the mantle we all assumed Robb was holding. Hell, he even threw in his Aragorn (Jon Snow), who literally served as a ranger, but who has the bloodlines to be King of Westeros (with a sword that can kill Sauron, to boot). |

The world building sets GOT apart from anything I am aware of. It's so extensive, detailed, and thorough that sometimes when listening to the history or reading the back stories that you forget the events didn't really happen.
