Game of thrones season 8 [contains spoilers]

That meme is like ten years old. Amazed that I recognise it
 
I’m calling bullshit on that one. Then again it’s Season 8 GoT so fuck knows it could be the second coming of JC for all we know.
 
Someone posted an image the other day complaining that The Mountain was harder to kill than the Night King.

If it turns out Jamie fucking Lannister is harder to kill than either, then that says everything about this season....
 
I quite enjoyed this episode. Lots of madness and death and destruction. I'm not sure about the destructive power of flame mind, but the bit where the dragon blows the doors open from inside was quite ace. The Clegane fight was also fun.

Jamie is certified dead. I would bet my month wage on it. This the theory is a non starter
 
Fing is, yeah, that all speciation may be a spoiler cos some soul sucking jerk leaked the end.
So I'm taking no chances and reading nowt
 
Some of the acting has been incredible. Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Rory McCann and Gwendolyn Christie in particular.

... which has been my biggest gripe with season 8. All of them have been utterly wasted, reduced to cut-out stereotypes of their characters because of dreadful writing and a complete lack of time. Cersei spent ep 5 mostly staring from a balcony, then politely tiptoed past the Hound and finally cried a bit before having a castle apparently fall on her.

I did enjoy it despite the general daftness, but again it was too long. We saw enough devastation to get the idea that WHAT DANY IS DOING IS BAD but then there was just more and more and more. The Hound got enough of a kicking to kill him three times over and kept going anyway. Arya escaped certain doom by the skin of her teeth eight, nine times at least. If you've only got an hour of script then give us an hour of telly for fuck's sake.

Yes Hound lived too long but this was probably fan service for all this Clegmania thing everyone seems to have heard of

The length of the attack I liked... War is relentless and this captured that. Likewise survivors always count all the many moments they could've died...

Arya had a lucky run but I really hope she is dead now... Surely she is.

The biggest groanfest for me was Jamie v Boaty McBoatface, them both conveniently meeting on that beach, Boaty having just swum a few miles from destroyed boat, Jamie getting what looked like two serious shanks to the arm and gut...wincing a bit and then carrying on. Should be out cold. Cersei says to him "you're hurt"...bit of an understatement.

Should've just skipped the soap opera dick fight and let him get crushed in better shape.

Yeah that was just plain bad writing.
 
'Hurt' tends to mean mortally wounded in GoT. Jorah said he was hurt ten seconds before he died two weeks ago. I'm sure it's been used like that before too.

yeah, but he was 'hurt' when he couldnt stand up on the beach having taken two serious wounds...i thought his ten seconds had come!
