theminister Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Obviously there wasn't a lot of questions answered in this episode and they just used it to further the storyline to set up future instalments. All I can say is that I'm glad we don't have to wait another 9 months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckinEdm Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I was talking with my wife near the end that it didn't feel like GOT cause there were no titties.... thanks Melisandre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beluga Whale Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Pretty good episode but it felt more like a prologue for season 6 than anything else. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it because there were a lot of great moments - Theon/Sansa/Brienne scene was great as was the scenes at the wall. I also like what they did with Cersei this episode. I don't think there's any question that Lena Headey is the best actress in this show. But my God is the Dorne plotline bad. I'm cringing the entire time the Sand Snakes are on the screen. Also how did they get on the boat with Trystane? They were on the dock watching them sail off at the end of season 5 lol. Not surprised with the ending since that theory was well laid out in the books. It also looks like Melisandre has given up hope and is losing her faith since everything she thought was going to happen doesn't appear possible anymore. It seems like she's ready to die. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Tyene can make up some of that lost ground. Edited April 25, 2016 by theminister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canorth Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) Anybody see anything special in that pool of blood Jon left behind? The camera hovered on it for a while and Davos did a double take on it. Edited April 26, 2016 by Canorth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robongo Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Yea there's no debating that the Dorne plot is horrendous but what makes it worse is that those "actresses"( i cringe even calling them that) are absolutely terrible. By far the worst characters and performers on the series 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think he'd bleed out within minutes with the stabbing he took. Also, it wouldn't take long for that blood to freeze in the snow in those low temperatures with winter clearly coming. Just seems weird, because they clearly made an effort to draw our attention to it. But I couldn't piece it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 So watching the final scene again(up until the de-robing) I didn't notice her necklace/amulet lit up as she took it off(was looking a little lower). I thought she took one of those vials next to the mirror. Could it be that she knows the only way her vision would be correct is to sacrifice her life for him? Or was that nasty scene someone she does everynight and that amulet keeps her alive? The scene where that village girl thought Tyrion was going to eat her baby was hilarious. And how did Trystan get back? He was sailing with Jaime and Marcella when she died iirc. Atleast things are looking up for Sansa finally, enough with torturing the poor girl it gets tiresome to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast things are looking up for Sansa finally, enough with torturing the poor girl it gets tiresome to watch. I've been thinking of the Trystane angle and I think the likely scenario is that after Myrcella died, it was decided that KL would be a very bad place for a Martell. We don't know how far out of Sunspear the ship was, so the producers are probably suggesting that they sent Trystane back, using a skiff. They likely didn't bother taking up any production time, thinking we would figure it out for ourselves. To me the more difficult conundrum was suggested by the minister: What happened to the Bolton dogs when Pod and Brienne showed up to rescue Sansa? As far as the closing scene with Red Mel goes, I'm under the impression that the transformation happens every time she takes that necklace with the ruby off. This is just the first time we've seen it. (and hopefully the last) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just the first time we've seen it. (and hopefully the last) Pretty sure Trystane was on the boat at KL - the sand snakes followed in another boat (maybe the next day in a faster boat?) I would think that after Marcellas death, the last thing Jamie or anybody else would be concerned about would be Trystanes well being. He is more useful as a hostage at this point and was kept aboard the ship until Ceirci settles down. As for the dogs, I don't think they just disappeared. I watched it a couple times I'm pretty sure that I heard them running away yelping/barking. Regardles, kinda outta character for those dogs...

I guess we'll know for sure next episode, if Jaime checks the boat and finds Trystane's body. Of course, knowing D & D, they might just gloss the whole thing over...

I think she can use other things too though because there's a bathtub scene in s04 where she isn't wearing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I'm not an "uber fan" of GoT, but I still watch all of them. Never have a problem with them and never blown away by them either (except for Tyrion's trial). So this episode was more of the same for me. Which isn't bad. I will say that I'm glad they have toned down the completely unnecessary graphic, GRAPHIC nudity and sex over the last few seasons. Not that I have an issue with nudity or sex (I am married), just thought that GoT was becoming a parody of itself with it; relying far too heavily on an area that brought nothing to the story. So yeah. Last episode didn't do anything to move the story ahead, but I'm fine with it as an opening to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
