OFFICIAL Game of Holmes Season 8 Thread - A Dream of Flat Tops 4/14/19

That's the thing... They haven't loosely adapted according to him. According to him they've been more faithful than "99% of shows ever made".. that's what he said word for word

nikkas praying George still got it, when it’s very evident he does not

But if the snow was falling as a signal that winter is here & the NK is closer, why would it continue to snow AFTER the NK has been defeated? LOL. Y’all are trying to not make this make sense.

But season 8 opened with the snow being gone.

Sansa didn't save shyt.

Sansa played politics and games and got thousands of people killed because she didn't wanna tell Jon what she was planning so that they could better strategize. If Littlefinger wasn't tryna fukk she would have been useless.

The North hasn't been independent in centuries and the Warden of the North has already pledged his loyalty and is tryna honor his word. It's only Sansa who has a problem with that because she wants power for herself and knows Dany has more influence over Jon than she does.

Dany was in the field fighting with the soldiers while Sansa was hiding making snide comments. Now we see why Ned didn't tell Cat shyt. Tully's can't hold water.

Boys been watching this show for years and still don't know how the North and Winterfell works. For the last time, had Sansa told John and the Vale arrived prior to the battle, Ramsey wouldn't have met them in the field and would have outlasted them in a siege. There was no strategizing to be done with the Vale being a known entity.

I can't wait until this show ends. LOL

Smoked up epiphanies:

Mad King was a 3ER or trapped in some sort of Hodor-like Bran warm fukk up - Bran's gonna be on that Burn Them All shyt.

Iron throne's getting melted.

Arya, The Hound and Jaime all heading to KL on horseback. Mountain going down, Cersei stabbed in the throne room by Jaime... only Arya's taken his face on the way down.

Read the books (Varys backs a different “Targaryen”) and been watching since the inception, so I know allat. Including him backing that assassination attempt by Robert. Funny how he’s scheming behind her back after Dany doing everything Tyrion and Varys asked of her.

I stand by what I said in regards to Varys, lady olenna has done more for the realm if we keeping it a bean

why do you guys keep bringing book shyt into the show...8 years later. you know they cut out a lot of stuff from the books, this is who he backed IN THE SHOW (the half assed assassination attempt was an attempt to CYA) and who he's been working with for years. varys has no power, he got his power from being on the small council, he no longer has spies in KL, there is nothing he could be doing in KL these years he's been with dany. furthermore, if he's backing dany, what exactly should he have done, pulled a US military move and taken out a dictator with no replacement? let mass anarchy rule?

i'm not getting your beef here at all. if his plan was to install a targ kid, he goes to clique up with said targ kid and roll with her back to westeros....who exactly should he have been fighting for in the interim?


edit: and he's scheming because he sees things that disturb him while also having been able to witness the fair, honest, selfless leadership of jon


edit 2: and didn't he broker the meetup with the tyrells and martells for dany? he's been working

So it makes sense to let your brother go into a battle you don't think he can win and let him potentially get killed while already giving up on your other brother? It's almost like she was cool either way.

All them sites are on the internet. There are dudes on IMDb saying avengers was trash. RT are full of film snobs that think of a movies doesn’t make you cry then it’s trash. And the fukking Coli critics are only good for jokes and hating on shyt. My pint is fukk all of them nikkas and their snobby ass opinions

Yes y’all sound miserable picking this show apart instead of enjoying the final season of what y’all say is the GOAT. See for me this show as a whole is about an 8 cause all the politicking in the earlier seasons bored me but I respect it and understand why they did it that way. These last seasons to me is the pay off for all the talking about acts of betrayal. I can’t see why y’all can’t respect all the good action we been getting lately.

To me this show ain’t get good until season 2 or 3 but you ain’t see me all up in the thread picking it apart. My point is just cause the faster pace isn’t for you that doesn’t mean the show fell off. Let’s be real There was no way they could pay off 8 years in 6 episodes especially without the source material. And for all we know what happens here maybe better than whatever they do in the books if we even get that last book

So...you're a casual?

 

[Rigby.]

This theory might be totally unfounded nonsense but a couple people are saying it was mentioned in an earlier episode that salt water heals dragon wounds? That’d explain Euron’s reaction better than anything

It's war, and it was her home. She played to win and won. Not sure why y'all keep complaining about it. There are no what ifs, what happened, happened.

But season 8 opened with the snow being gone.

I was thinking though....

and i seen a theory on reddit too...

What if its ash not snow

But season 8 opened with the snow being gone.

It was a light snow breh. The snow didn’t even stay on the ground. I live in NY & there’s been plenty of times where there was a light snow & the next day it was sunny. Y’all acting like it was mid Feb in Chicago.

What does Rhaegal being hurt have to do with how he was killed? He was fukking head shotted

Even if he was 100% healthy he was still getting killed by those heat seeking missiles that launch as if they've discovered gun powder and are strong enough to destroy ships.

Come on breh. There is no rhyme or reason to it, no foreshadowing that explains why Rhagael was easily dispatched but Drogon couldn't be. It's all because the plot demands it. Nothing else. Cersei could have ended the war and didn't because reasons.

they did specifically show Rhagael struggling to fly straight earlier in the episode. i dont necessarily disagree with you completely here, but to say there was absolutely zero foreshadowing is not true
