Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
It really has gone downhill and dramatically so since they ran out of source material. Old George's supposedly supplied 'outlines' must've been sketchy indeed.

You can only go so far with deaths and twist plots before it gets boring or stupid. This and Vikings started great but have been on a downward slide for a while now.

That was better. It is building up so better not let me down now. Some long time cast member better start getting killed off soon.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
Yeah I enjoyed it more than the first 3 of this season even with it having a predictable ending.
I agree that it is still lacking compared to how unpredictable it used to be.
At least thee was one aspect that was unexpected last episode;

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
I thought that the end was ridiculous. With all that fire power on the wall why wouldn't Cersei just take out the dragon, Dany and her puny guard?
The rest was good. Enjoyed Varys' and Tyrion's chats.

One possible theory - she is waiting for Jamie to get back so she can kill him herself or something?

Doc, I think that's the point of how they've been structuring her path over the last few eps.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
I did enjoy this episode even if there was no real surprises except for the amount of death & carnage.
At least it looks like it will have a conclusion for most major storylines.
Even if it does feel a bit rushed after so many seasons leading to this point.
But I guess it was always going to feel that way.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
You are right about the age Cursed. I haven't read the books so I don't know their age's so I have to go off the age of the actor. That does explain the rash decisions.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
Tis been many a moon since I read the books but from memory Daenerys was 13 when she was wed to Drogo.
Sansa was about the same, Arya was I think 11.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
My only criticism is that I wanted to see Arya get more stabby-stabby action.
