One where something, anything, matters Tweak Send a noteboard - 15/05/2019 01:44:53 PM

I'm still holding my breath that some twist or event is coming to make more than half the storylines matter but I'm starting to really lose confidence.

As it currently stands it seems as though almost every event north of the wall was entirely pointless.

Bran becoming the 3ER? Hasn't contributed much to the story except giving the Night King someone to target. Meera? Hodor? Coldhands? CotF? Pointless. Pointless. Pointless. Pointless.

Night King? Army of the Dead? The real War? Pointless, undone by a single knife stab in the dark by rolls random character generator Arya. At this point it seems the entire point of everything that happened North of the Wall served the purpose of killing 1 Dragon and "equalizing" Dany's army to Cersei's. If that was the point of all that, why not just give her 2 to start? Or have Euron snipe 2 of them magically on the way to King's Landing? Why not just make her army the same size to start?

Brienne? Sansa? The Wildlings? Mellisandre? The Prince that was Promised? Numerous other prophecies?

Maybe just maybe the final episode will bring everything full circle and have it all mean something and make sense.

Or maybe not, maybe that IS the point, that life is meaningless, not everything makes sense, not everything has to.

"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention."

It won't happen. The showrunners only care about ratings. And GRRM only cares about his TV millions *NM* damookster - 12/05/2019 01:17:47 AM 243 Views
Chances are, you will never see the end of the books - GRRM = RJ Anonymous2000 - 12/05/2019 03:59:10 AM 469 Views

So we put the series in the writting hands of the guy who wrote X-Men Origins: Wolverine? Roland00 - 13/05/2019 05:55:30 PM 454 Views
That line goes back at least as far as 2013. Before the Purple Wedding even aired Cannoli - 14/05/2019 03:47:59 AM 471 Views
The book report line? Or the Wolverine line? Roland00 - 14/05/2019 04:06:01 AM 479 Views
Benioff's comment. Googling it produces an article from 2013. I didn't know about Wolverine Cannoli - 14/05/2019 02:21:24 PM 458 Views

Sansa & Tyrion on the Iron Throne. Daenerys dead. Jon Snow living up North with the Free Folk. The Shrike - 16/05/2019 03:47:16 PM 492 Views
Sounds good to me! *NM* Anonymous2000 - 17/05/2019 03:27:58 AM 247 Views
It is time to remember the house words. House HBO words are "“It's not TV, it's HBO!" *NM* Roland00 - 27/05/2019 07:50:22 PM 238 Views
