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.. |

I too would love to see some of those communications between HBO and GRRM.

They were there for at least a day. They all woke up to the Wights surrounding them. A throwaway line about how they're running out of supplies would have done them quite a bit of good.

The Nerd Soup review of the most recent episode made a good point about the writing. All these long journeys that are occurring at warp speed would have contained multiple chapters of the journey in the books from perhaps different sources.
Those chapters may not have been critical to the overall end game but they were critical to the depth and character development that makes the show so immersive. If chapters like those existed now the show could at least have some reference for how the characters would interact or perhaps if there was some good dialogue or situations that could be included and shown on the show. But instead, without any of this source information they were used to, they elect to skip all of these subtle moments all together and only focus on meeting certain plot requirements and it is really causing them to create too many plot holes. |

The not bringing horses thing north of the wall doesn't really bother me. The terrain can be assumed to not be favorable to horses and they would just be more mouths to feed. After all the wildlings never had horses did they? I assume because it's just too mountainous and lacking vegetation and that doesn't favor horses very well.
That said, a simple meeting about planning the quest could have included a few lines about bringing or not bringing horses and the reasons they elected not to. Another example of moving too fast and not taking care to create a logical story. |

I get a kick out of people who watch something just to find something to complain about.

You mean the hole in the ice that the Night King or Wights could have refrozen solid with a gesture?

Benjen's horse seemed to do just fine north of the Wall

And every ranger sent out from the night's watch was on horseback.
But yeah. Run Gendry, run.
