Game of Thrones season 6

[CaptainWacky]

I hate it when articles say "and it's not who you think" when he's probably one of the top three characters people would think of right away.

6.3 'Oathbreaker'

Daenerys meets her future; Bran meets the past; Tommen confronts the High Sparrow; Arya trains to be No One; Varys finds an answer; Ramsay gets a gift.

Fuddlemiff's really slacking on the "should be good."

[Cassie]

Not a terrible episode, but it was kinda boring.

[Eggs Loki]

Lots of sitting around talking in between the stabbings and hangings.

[CaptainWacky]

I guess we'll have to watch Ramsey rape Osha while he makes Rickon watch now.

I thought maybe they'd have Jon spare the lives of the traitors because they all serve the Watch and it's more important that they're all united instead of killing each other. Or something. I don't know. Maybe I just didn't want Ser Alliser to die. I liked how he wasn't really evil and he genuinely thought what he was doing was for the best of the Watch.

It's funny how book readers have been speculating for years about how Hoyland Reed killed Arthur Dayne and it turns out he just stabbed him in the back.

Okay, I can't see THAT image either and I changed internet providers today so it's not my fault...

[Cassie]

Maybe he has Scotland blocked!

[CaptainWacky]

(And I checked my settings and I have "show images in posts" selected or whatever.)

WHAT IS GOING ON??????

[CaptainWacky]

I can see it fine normally, just not in this thread!

[Eggs Loki]

I have no idea why that would be.

[Cassie]

CaptainWacky, do you use adblock or noscript?

[CaptainWacky]

I disabled AdBlock on this page and now I can see it. WEIRD. Now I'll have to look at all the intrusive advertising here!

[Cassie]

Try whitelisting imgur instead, IMO!

6.4 'Book of the Stranger'

Tyrion strikes a deal; Jorah and Daario engage in a difficult task; Jaime and Cersei try to improve their situation.

Eventually the descriptions are just going to read "various chracters exist."

[Cassie]

I ship Brienne and Tormund.

[Eggs Loki]

Looks like Natalie Tena will be looking for work again...

FIERY STUFF! (I haven't watched the show enough over the years to comment on all the boring talky scenes but I get enough of a sense of things when BIG THINGS happen)

[CaptainWacky]

Natalia Tena wasn't in seasons four or five and I'm sure she did fine for work then.

I'm sick of Ramsey and his "always stabs people then smiles" thing. Tywin, Cersei, even Joffrey were far better main villains because they had some kind of depth and weren't invulernable horror movie killers.

I like that Sansa and Jon got to meet (did they even have any scenes together in season one?) and got to be happy. Sophie Turner is killing it this season. Best female character!

Dany standing in the flames looked cool even if it made no sense.

[Eggs Loki]

Isn't that just a thing she can do? Didn't she walk through fire or stand in fire a few seasons back?
