RazorStar 4,025 Posted June 22, 2016 Ramsay lives for the moment and the thrill. Sure he could kill Jon Snow, but where's the fun in that? Why not take everything from him, everything he cares about, and kill his spirit first? Jon Snow should have died when the cavalry charged in, but his army charged in to save his ass, and he's basically the best swordsman alive (Well top 3) at this point (Jaime's been maimed, Barristan and Blackfish the OG's are dead, Brienne and Burny Sandors could probably beat him, Gregor is undead so he doesn't count) and has a god's favour or is just a plot armor wizard at this point. So when Jon and the crew storm the castle, Ramsay is surrounded by archers, a Giant, the fucking one man army Jon Snow, and the guy who just killed your second in command by ripping out his throat. If you're Ramsay, you know you've lost, so you might as well have some fun with it. Jon is having a nice little moment with Wun Wun? Better take that from him too. Get his attention. Maybe challenge that honor bound idiot to one on one combat because you're apparently the best damn shot in the north and kill a kid with a short bow from 500 yards out, so you can get some satisfaction before every god damn archer, and Tormund fucking Giantsbane murder the shit out of you. In short... "He did it for the Lulz" 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RazorStar 4,025 Posted June 27, 2016 Well, well, well. Dany finally left Meereen, holy shit! Also, Oldtown is fucking gorgeous, I wanna live there, and just read all the books in that library. So good. As for the factions, we've culled a lot of the loose ends, but we're basically down to the Sansa, Jon and Littlefinger coalition contained the North, the Vale and the Riverlands, The Lannisters who have basically burned all of their bridges, and the Dany, Tyrell and Dorne coalition who will obviously win because Varys can just teleport wherever the fuck he wants to. Of course, the last bunch is the army of the dead just hanging out north of the wall. I guess the remaining wildcards would be the Iron Islands (who shouldn't be after the show events, c'mon you've got like 10 trees in the whole damn place you can't make ships out of that.) and Jaime who should be having some serious doubts after Cersei basically carpet bombed King's Landing... Just glad that they're finally pushing forward. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CampinWithaMissingPerson 2,025 Posted June 27, 2016 What a fucking finale holy shit. But yeah Varys is definitely one of those future bros from Fringe confirmed, cock be damned. Everything about this episode was fucking GoT porn man. Agreed billion percent about Old Town too. Eye porn. Arya gutting that fuckboy Frey finally fucking yes. Jamie hoeing him scenes earlier before his death too. Dude thought he was sitting pretty then Arya gets him like he got her mother. Glorious. I actually kinda cheered on Cersei blowing those self righteous fucks away Seeing the High Septon explode in wildfire >>> This dude Jon Snow went from dead to King of the North in 10 episodes. The Gawd. Like how the R+L=J confirmation had her key words silent as Bran played it back for us like the books. Only thing I can criticize is BenJen talking about the wall being magic and Bran or anyone else not remembering that the Nights King touch on Bran negates the magic lol Great fucking episode though. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RazorStar 4,025 Posted June 27, 2016 To be fair, if Benjen took Bran to the wall, then the Others would get through and... welp. I do not feel good for Lord Commander Edd's chances against the army of the dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) Dang. It all got so real, lol. Honestly sad to see the future of House Tyrell wiped from the lands. That plot played out so beautifully though. The High Sparrow's death was long overdue as was Maester Pycelle's. How that guy lived so long is beyond me, ha. I really wanted some more Jaime on Cersei action. This has to put him on some serious tilt and we already know she is bat shit crazy. Also, the music playing during the unfolding of that plot was so eerie and insanely good. Props to the composer or whomever on that one. Tommen's death isn't a surprise but still, wow. Cersei was always worried about the prophecy that all of her children would die -- who knew that was the price of the Iron Throne? #TheMadQueen Speaking of taking out the trash, the Arya thing completely threw me. I was not expecting that at all and it felt so good! Jaime did a little basting of the pig before he went, which was awesome and hilarious. The Frey's have to be one of the most disgusting and pitiful houses in the 7 Kingdoms and it sounds like Arya did everyone a favor. Is her plan to carry out her list and take vengeance on those who wronged her family or will she reunite with her siblings... whoops. Sibling... and cousin. #AllMenMustServe Bran's story line was a lot weaker than I expected. I figured he would really begin tapping into his powers and exploring all that he will be able to do. Yet, he was merely a tool to reveal R + L = J which was a nice payoff but not good enough for Bran, IMO. Still without a doubt the weakest plot / character in the show. If he ends up having a significant impact, which I think he undoubtedly will, I will be pretty disappointed. #GoAwayBranWhich brings us to Jon Targaryen and the happenings in the North. Leanna Mormont is super clutch and thus we have a new King of the North. Really overall a great scene as the houses pledge their loyalties to the... bastard? Maybe best of all, as it was happening, Sansa looked genuinely happy. But then she catches the gaze of Little Finger and instantly that disappears. How Sansa and Little Finger go from here (whether it be separate or together) will be interesting. Solid scene with Davos and Melisandre as well, she too now becomes a big ?. She won't just... disappear will she? Jon may not be Ned's son, but he does have Stark blood in him. On one hand, you hope he doesn't meet his demise as his cousin and uncle did. However, he was raised a Stark and shows that same level of... loyal ignorance, so to speak that both Ned and Robb had. #KingOfTheNorth #TheWhiteWolf Speaking of our new Targaryen, Dany's claim to the throne all of a sudden become a lot more contested -- if that information is ever revealed to the public anyway. Dany obviously wants it more, but technically should be left to her nephew while Winterfell should fall to Sansa. Saying goodbye to Daario upsets me a bit, but the scene with Dany and Tyrion was so great and well written / shot (as is mostly everything in this show). Varys and Little Finger teleport like the best of them. Speaking of which.... Dany is sailing to Westeros with an Unsullied and Dothraki army with the help of her allies in High Garden (what's left of the Tyrell's), Dorne, and 100 or so ships from the Iron Fleet. Not to mention having Tyrion there as well and oh... Some fucking dragons, bitch... On paper, this alliance or army or whatever is literally unstoppable. Something is bound to go wrong though, right? I mean it is set up so perfectly that it can't just go perfectly... or can it? What are the chances Dany courts her nephew Jon for a husband. Or perhaps if she likes them young, Robin Arryn would do nicely (enter Little Finger?). One thing is for certain, Cersei sits on the Iron Throne, but she won't be for long. King's Landing is about to get ROCKED. These new alliances also undermine Euron quite a bit. A lot of people pegged him as a big bad going forward, but his cock is going to be on Dany's mantle if it isn't sold by the cock merchant first #QueenOfDragons #You'reAWizardVarys So where does this leave us. Dany should wreck havoc on King's Landing and claim the throne for herself as she looks for a suitor (Jon?) she aligns with him and the North to fight the threat that is the White Walkers. The really big question marks, for me... Arya. Little Finger. Jaime. Euron. Mel. So Season 7 should take that first portion into account while season 8 finishes up with the War for the Dawn? Seems logical, but lots of crazy shit could go down in between. Should be fun. #ICouldFinishWindsOfWinterBeforeGeorgeRRMartin Edited June 27, 2016 by Favre4Ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherry 1,302 Posted June 27, 2016 Varys teleporting wasn't that bad. We have no idea what the timeframe is on his return to Meereen. Arya showing up at twins threw me for a gigantic fucking loop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) Eh. He left Mereen two real weeks ago and in that span made it to Dorne, awaited the tragedy in King's Landing, waiting for the Queen of Thrones to arrive, then made it back to Mereen to sail with Dany to Westeros. Seems fairly improbable to me, but maybe. lol What could be really interesting is another Little Finger / Varys showdown. Potentially if Little Finger tries marrying Robin to Dany.. or even if perhaps he strengthens his hold on the Vale and North and turns them against Dany / Varys and Co. it could get interesting. All of Game of Thrones seems like a chess match played between those two, so I don't doubt it. Edited June 27, 2016 by Favre4Ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherry 1,302 Posted June 27, 2016 We don't know when that last scene is. Could be a large time jump from Dorne visit to returning to Meereen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BJORN 679 Posted June 27, 2016 I honestly had lowish expectations on the finale given how much happened last week but man that was a great finale and probably one of the best episodes ever.

Thanatos 2,847 Posted June 27, 2016 Varys manipulated this whole damn thing. Remember last episode when Qyburn told Cersei about a little rumor? And who spreads the rumors? Obviously Varys. Varys had the network of children, they were his "little spiders." Jaime is about to kill Cersei. Then he will be King and Queen slayer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted June 27, 2016 Looks like Bran's vision pretty much predicted everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS0LaoOXhQg Obviously the widfire predicted the events in last night's episode. And young Ned saying "Where's my sister?" tells us that we'll be going back to that scene for something important. Obviously, we did. The one shot in there that we haven't seen yet, as far as I recall, are the aerial shots of a dragon (or dragons) flying over what looks like King's Landing. That certainly makes sense, given the events of last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
