pchukwudi: Where do you think the saying all is fair in love and war come from It's the victors that will sit down to write the history of the war and they will absolve themselves of most atrocities. Once you lose that is it, You are the devil Lucifer weakling and everything terrible on earth If you believe that in real life that morality ethics and natural justice exist in warfront then you have been deceiving yourselves At the warfront human beings come to the basest most primordial level, our worst element comes to fore all in a bid to survive. If you have anyone that has witnessed a war before or fought on warfront they will tell you that is the reality have friends who have done multiple trips to Iraq, Afghanistan etc and don't let anyone deceive you, what happens in the front line is different from what the media portrays It's after winning the war that the generals in starched uniform start whitewashing the acts on warfront Assuming it was Hitler that won the WW2, what do you think would be writen about Britain and the allied forces 9 Likes 1 Share |

Did you know there were three different actors who played Ser Gregor Clegane (The Mountain)? When did you notice? For me, I noticed right in season 2 when The Mountain came to see Tywin in Harenhall. But I was super confused after seeing him and was like they def must be talking about a different Cleagane. ![]() The first one was Conan Stevens. He bailed with little notice to go be on The Hobbits. As Faith would have it, his character ended up being replaced with CGI. Imagine loosing on both ends. Now, that's what I call Karma. My Thoughts I think he was best suited for the role , he had this super mean face. Just look at that bad*ss scene where he chopped off his horse's head after his tilt with the Knight of Flowers (Loras Tyrell). ![]() The second one was Ian Whyte. He was already working on the show as a stunts man/white walker. He played the role of the giant Wun Wun. He was shown in season 2 in Harrenhall with Tywin's escort. My Thoughts He looks like one day the directors forgot they had a scene with The Mountain in it and just switched to the tallest The third one is Hafpor Bjornsson. He was the final replacement we got to see fight the viper (Oberyn Martell) and all through to the end. My Thoughts I think he looks like The Mountain quite alright - just a more polite one. ........ Okay I'm just going to come out and say he's like a supernatural giant teddy bear. BTW....Don't let that distract you from the fact that I sell some pretty awesome GOT themed unisex pendant and bracelet.

What if, just what if Tyrion actually did all what he did all in the bid of tarnishing Daenerys' image. I mean, knowing fully well that Daenerys is hell bent on destroying KL. What better way is there to show everyone alive that Daenerys isn't suitable to rule Westeros. Afterall, the dude have shown that he's clever and can be extremely ruthless in a freightening way. |

highcollide:Wild fire was planted in King's landing by the Mad King during the "sack of kings landing". His plan was to burn his enemies and kings landing to the ground . But all thanks to Jaime Lannister who saved the day. The kingslayer killed the Pyromancer who was supposed to set kingslanding ablaze and finally killed the mad King. His last words were "burn them all" |

Even Though I stopped seeing game of thrones since they diverted from GRRM storyline.anyone hating daenerys for torching KL,does not know the stark realities of warfare.when a leader uses her subjects as pawns,you don't expect the enemy to show "mercy". what would have happened if cersei had negotiated with daenerys to let her subjects go by surrendering. heck,half the people here did not bait an eyelid,when they read about how jehovah ordered the absolute massacre of the amalekites telling saul to leave nothing alive (both women,children,animals and the men who didn't partake in the battles),dropping the excuse that it was old times,as if GOT timeline is in the 21st century. My own advice is to remove the log in your own eyes before you remove the speck in your brother's eyes. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Stop equating the decision of God with what a human being will do. We all know this is fiction and fantasy but we are talking about the rationality of the actions of Daenerys to burn down innocent people who were miles away from Cersie, people that never did anything to her.

Funaki: Every sane person was shocked, like no one expected it. When Dany landed on a building and was staring at the red keep or whatever it's called, I was happy thinking Dany would ride her Dragon to the red keep and burn the building down. I was so shocked when she started with innocent civilians. You know she spent a lot of time burning civilians. I still say it, if euron had not delayed Cercei, she would have escaped. Then Dany would have ended up killing innocent civillians and the main target would be alive. The writer made it as clear as possible that Dany has turn to a mad, murderous queen.. I imagine her looking up from the dragon, seeing little children running away and she's shouting dacarys nevertheless. The writers should be blamed for making her into a monster. No one should be justifying that nonsense. I see a lot of them arguing that Cercei would have done the same If she was in Dany's shoes. That says a lot. No one is comparing Dany to Sane people like Jon, Arya, Sansa, e. t. c anymore. Anyone can check my previous posts before that episode was aired. I'm a big Dany fan and I still am. I'm hoping she ate something Varys put into her food and that made her delusional and crazy for a while. I hope she sleeps and wakes up the next episode and cannot remember what she did in Kings landing cuz she was drugged and that made her to go bazooka on kings landing. 6 Likes |

one9ner:which throne? Didn't you see the throne is destroyed? I don't think Dany is interested in ruling from KL any longer, she just laid waste to KL outta rage. For people blaming Jon for not giving Dany the D to calm her, put him in your shoes, if you discovered that the girl you've been fucking is ur mum/sister, would your dick even rise after the discovery? Not to talk of passionate sex. The guy grew up in the north for Bleep sake!! To understand #got, follow the storyline very well and relate with reality not character development bla bla... Anyone would do what Dany did in her situation, she's chosen fear instead of love and she made KL the scapegoat to strike fear into any other region that would want to rebel (her father's story comes to mind) Lastly most people are rating this season badly because of they've kinda mixed the book's story with too many fan theories (YouTube and reddit finish work in this aspect), the TV series is very different, the earlier you accept that, the better. 1 Like |

I’m beginning to agree with the people that say Dany is not fit to rule. If the only thing keeping a king from massacring thousands of totally innocent people is the advice of his/her current advisors, then the king is not fit to rule in a civilized society, since there’s no guarantee that the advisors will always be there. If people like Jorah, Ser Barristan and Tyrion had not been advising Dany, she would have done something like this a long time ago. I would not want to have such a person ruling over me. They underestimated her. We all did. We thought the pretty little lady was just spitting fire when she threatened to burn cities to the ground. She was serious. 5 Likes 4 Shares |
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by KushCollectible: 8:45am On May 18, 2019 |
Seun: I disagree with your second paragraph. She always had that maternal instinct in her. She was a liberator. She was called Myssa. Look at the scene when she was so sorrowful over the death of the little girl Drogon killed. Which led her to chaining up her other two children - I pretty hard decision she had to make. I just think it gets to a point in life when we get to our breaking point and just snap. |
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Seun(m): 8:53am On May 18, 2019 |
In the next episode, I hope that Dany will come to her senses, realise that she bleeped up, hand over the seven kingdoms to Jon, go to Essos to rethink her life for a few years under the protection of Daario and Drogon, and then resume her campaign to end slavery in her world. I don't want Jon to be the king because he does not learn from his mistakes and will probably be killed in a few months, but he has the best claim. 4 Likes 4 Shares |

Seun:I beg to disagree. It is common wisdom. If those wildfires were buried underground, they wouldn't have leaked out the way they did. Magma, Napalm or whatever it was Drogon was spitting isn't that powerful to burrow underground and cause a spark. I take my cue from reanimated Viserion who couldn't get past a stone to roast Jon. While we saw the strength of the Dragon in a new dimension in the recent episode, we very much know they don't have the strength to dig out the Wildfires from underground the city. The wildfire is highly flammable but that in itself isn't enough. I saw the episode again yesterday and it was obvious the wildfires were stored in the buildings that was destroyed. If this was the case, then it makes no sense that residential buildings were locked up and used for wildfire havens during the Mad King's reign and remained that way decades later. There is no sense in it. It would have been discovered by anyone and alarm would have been raised. I strongly believe Cersei planted them as traps around the city while the unfortunate people of the city were her last line of defense. Scorpions - Wildfires - Human shields. It is a well thought out strategy that never materialized all thanks to Dany's rage. Saying they were planted by the Mad King a long time ago only to burst into flames within buildings as depicted in the episode is unsellable. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by DP84: 9:20am On May 18, 2019 |
So I discovered one strange thing yesterday, contrary to the belief of many about Arya and one said 'Green eyes' during the conversation of Arya and the Red Woman during in the third episode. I'd try to recreate the conversation but those who can should revisit that particular scene: Arya: You said we would meet again Red Woman: I did... Arya: You were right... You also said I'd shut many eyes forever... Red Woman: Yes, brown eyes (Arya looks on), green eyes (Arya nods in agreement) and blue eyes (Arya's eyes brightened like she had got an idea)... My point is the the 'Green eyes'. I'd like to believe it had happened, probably one of the person Arya killed and she seemed to approve by nodding her head but never did the same for the blue eyes. Fan theories suggest Dany or Drogon would be killed, I say fans are overthinking. I very much doubt Arya would be fitted into the cliché of being a back-to-back protagonist/heroine many believe she'd be. Dany might just go ahead and rule or forfeit the Throne voluntarily. But that she'd die or be killed? Neeeh! |
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Seun(m): 9:23am On May 18, 2019 |
KushCollectible:It is true that she did many good, decent and kind things. But there are many men in history who have been kind and generous to their families and friends and people they empathised with for some reason and yet committed heinous atrocities. Hitler had a dog, and he loved that dog. I just think it gets to a point in life when we get to our breaking point and just snap.The world of Game of Thrones is brutal, and many of our favorite characters have been pushed to their breaking point and beyond. Arya, Sansa, Jon and Bran lost their father, mother and two brothers. Theon was tortured and castrated; his father assassinated. Samuel Tarly lost his father and brother. Jaime, a legendary sword-fighter, lost his hand. Dany was the only one who wanted to burn cities to the ground in retaliation. 6 Likes 7 Shares |
