Too lazy to see if there's already a thread about this show.

THIS THREAD WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS IF YOU ARE NOT CAUGHT UP.

Does anyone watch? That finale was intense  

The finale was great. My favourite scene was the one with Arya ;).
Also loved the penultimate episode, where Jon was beating Ramsay on the floor, and when Sansa says "You haven't fed your dogs in 7 days. You told me yourself"  

FINALY SOMEONE MADE A THREAD ABOUT THIS SHOW

The last episode was my favorite one of the entire show, the song, the characters, the ending, they all were marvelous

HAIL CERSEI ! LONG MAY SHE LIVE

 

---

was actually starting to like Margery. and that Tommen death was so abrupt. I want more.  

Lannisters/Kings Landing: I have no idea why Jamie would be upset with Cersei. She did what she had to do to survive, he egged that whole "we're the only two people in the world that matter" idea on... So why is he at all surprised at what she did? I'm just happy she didn't burn the entire city to the ground although I think she would have done that as well. She's winning right now but I suspect her reign won't last very long, Danerys is fast approaching.

Starks: Unpopular opinion here but I think Jon and Sansa are extremely boring characters and most of what they do is easily predictable (with a few exceptions). Arya and Bran by far have the most interesting story line in this family.

Who will run Riverrun now that Arya basically killed every important Frey? I'm assuming the Lannisters will just run the show there now and acquire a bigger army to fight off the Dany/Tyrion/Tyrell/Martell/Dragon/Dothraki/Mereen alliance. Westeros is hers for the taking imo. Who knows. Season 7 is gonna be awesome for sure.

Also can a mod add *SPOILERS* in the title of this thread?  

Jon vs Ramsey and that hodor episode were the best episodes for mr

I agree to an extent but I feel that now it's been confirmed that Jon's father is Rhaegar his character will get a lot more interesting.  

watch it turn out that bran is accidently the creator of everything

Hasn't been 100% confirmed that that's who his father is, but it's pretty likely.

HBO actually released this on one of their websites which confirms it: http://www.makinggameofthrones.com/p...oy-infographic

Well first off she did exactly what he became the Kingslayer to prevent. The Mad King is the one who planted all that wildfire in the first place, not Cersei... once he learned of the King's plan is when he decided to kill him to prevent that from happening. Then despite all of that Cersei went ahead and did it anyways, which of course resulted in Tommen's suicide which she is also responsible for. She didn't once think of the repercussions of what she was doing and didn't even consider that 1) Tommen loved Margery and 2) Tommen just wanted to be a good king and was trying to do what he thought was best and 3) Tommen also probably felt responsible for his citizens, being their king, and just watched a decent percentage of them get blown up by his mother.

This is exactly what Tywin warned her of... thinking she was more clever than she truly was and not seeing the long-term ramifications of her actions. She's too short-sighted and she ****ed up. Maybe it was the only way to save herself, but I'm not sure if Jaime was very comfortable at the cost.  

Jaimie looking at her sister becoming the queen after blowing up everything. He killed the mad king to prevent this
I wonder if Jaimie Will be the one who Will KILL Cersei

ARE WE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE TRUE HERO OF THIS SEASON??? AND BY THAT I MEAN OFC LYANNA MORMONT omg this little girl acting is awesome

I guess I can see why he would be upset with her about this. It does make him look like a dicey person in general. But it's not like the Lannister name is synonymous with honesty and virtue. Jamie was ****ing his sister (worst kept secret in westeros) and Joffrey was a maniac for crying out loud. Everyone in westeros knows they're snakes, which is why every single house outside of kings landing is congregating to destroy them.

Tommen was an extremely naive and ineffective king when it came to ruling and putting his foot down. He kept being manipulated by every single person that would talk to him or throw boobs in his face. Margery easily manipulated him, followed by the religious wackjobs. I don't think any of them actually thought he had any power (including Cersei), but that's only because he's supposed to be like 11 years old. He was effectively sending his mom to her death because he cared more about his wife. If this didn't push him over the edge, something else easily would have (realizing Margery doesn't actually love him, just loves the power she holds over people like Cersei), and I feel like his mom knew that so she decided to save herself and not delay his inevitable suicide. Not to mention that the second he banned trial by combat he became her enemy.

I agree that Cersei is not at all a good ruler, she's just extremely good at getting revenge. She would honestly be a great hand to the king/queen. Very smart and tactical in the short term but doesn't realize that killing the entire Tyrell lineage will have to be answered with some sort of vengeance. She's a very "what is happening right now and how am I to win right now" character, and in that regard she is winning.


I love talking about this show

Posted this back in the Youtube thread, but still relevant.

Also Cersei is bat**** insane.  

Not that its relevant to the plot but I was kind of hoping Brienne and Jaime end up together, and seeing what Cersei has done this makes this slightly more likely to happen
