Gmajor:
it's not terrible writing.
The universal reward for treason is death.
Then why is Sansa still alive? Save for Varys plotting to poison Dany, Sansa perpetrated just as much treason as Varys. She began the chain from the moment she told the Imp about Jon's parentage. Sansa, it was who, put everything in play, man.

Varys was actually trying to poison dany at the beginning of episode 5. So, he deserved it.
Yes, no thanks for terrible character developing by D & D, he deserved to be executed for that.

Seun:
He tried to poison her over a disagreement on strategy and because he learned that Jon had a better claim to the throne. A claim that rests on Bran’s visions. If you try to kill someone and fail, don’t be mad if the person kills you. It’s called self-defense. Also, he was uncharacteristically stupid as he made it clear to Tyrion that he intended to kill Dany. If Tyrion didn’t report him and Dany found out, she would have killed them both.
My word! I can't believe I missed the part where Varys tried to have her poisoned by that cute kitchen girl. Had to watch that scene again to be sure it wasn't just a case of the Spider being worried about Dany's loss of appetite.

Aha, so poison isn't only a woman's weapon; it's a tool expertly employed by cravens and eunuchs alike grin Eddard was damn right about that. Thanks Mr Seun for shedding light on this, but again, I can't help but blame the showrunners for Varys' controversial end. The Varys we've been following since Day 1 of the show wouldn't make choices so ridiculous. He was too superb a player in the bloody game of thrones to go out like that.


GRRM must give him justice in the books!

name someone Arya killed without hiding, using a face or poison?

Arya hasn't won a battle face to face once

I agree with this. They shouldn’t have made Varys go out like that. He’s the best spymaster in all of the seven kingdom ffs. They didn’t give his character the ending it deserve.
Terrible ending. I'd rather he didn't have to go at all. Murdered by the same girl he helped escape being butchered in that Targaryen massacrehuh Without the Eunuch, she and Tyrion wouldn't even be alive in the first place.

How dare D & D do this to Varys!!!

To much of trying to make the show unpredictable, make some plots in the series to be trashy. angry especially this season 8
They've been rushing things since Season 6 and have done away with the classic GOT pacing that made us fall in love with the series in the first place.


They even had the guts to make my ever-careful and tactful Varys, uncharacteristically, rush up those letters, when he could have just waited till the end of the war to do so. The Spider survived Aerys, Robert and Joeffrey, why falter nowhuh



Is there anyone else who loved the master of whispers?

This very questioning and doubt is the major thing that made most Nigerians stopped watching Nollywood movies.

Always asking and spotting errors.
I still watch Nollywood Yoruba though grin grin grin Someone's got to grin

Magnifico2000:
Who else laughed when Qyburn was thrown to the wall like an egg?

Cersei was forming mad queen now she sees madness she is running and crying like a scared little girl.

The mountain went from protecting Qyburn and cersei from debris only to kill Qyburn few minutes later.
The hate for his brother knows no bound.the
Gregor is the king of smash and toss, no doubt. Still can't believe how his baby brother lasted that long in the epic battle. Crazy ass duo. grin

Drogon's throat must really hurt from all the Dracarys. Poor boy. Not even a lunch break for him.
Was it sheer rage powering Drogon to
sudden immortality in the face of all
those scorpions? Last episode a
scorpion ripped a hole in Rhaegal no
problem.

Buharifanatic:
cersei would have escaped

That's why she did what she did



Cersei crying is the sweetest thing I have ever seen
After the bell, signaling KL surrender, rang, why didn't Daenarys just simply fly over to the highest
tower in the Red Keep and roast Cersei
alive once and for all? I'm a disappointed Dany fan who doesn't subscribe to the war crimes she committed in KL. There was no need for it.

A targaryan alone in the world is a terrible thing- king Robert baratheon.
That was Aemon Targaryan, not Robert.

It was simply Dracarys!

Even Drogon is very angry. He has lost all his brothers. His fire level has increased. I didn't know he could pump out that much fire.

See the damage and destruction only one dragon executed. Imagine what three dragons would have done. She didn't even need all those armies she'd been recruiting. Guess she just wanted to secure their loyalty first sha.

She could have taken down kings landing right from the beginning with only her three dragons.

Greyworm's fury is just horrific. His face alone gave me shivers. undecided

And Cercie. You chopped off a girls head in a public display. You wanted to kill everyone to save your ass, but when it's your turn you suddenly developed a SOUL and crying that ' I DONT WANT TO DIE'. You think those people you killed WANTED TO DIE?

Imagine how people, after killing many, suddenly become soulful and innocent looking when they are about to die! undecided

And what a twist! Danny is now the new villain.

Quite an episode!
You dey mind am? For these wicked cold-hearted rulers, it always seems a bit abstract - other people dying.


To think it was the same person who was quoted as saying, , "When you play the Game of Thrones, you win or you die..."

I actually love the destruction of the Capital.
It's a city of schemers and liars but the innocent women and children needn't suffer for the sins of their leaders.

Psady:
hahahaha! u forgot to add the most annoying part ,his last words "I am the man who killed Jamie lannister". what nonsense!
Not annoying, especially when that came from someone who once looked Jaime in the eye and asked if the Kingslayer's sister and mother of his children liked 'a finger in the bum'.
The fool was a known psycho, so what's the fuss?
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 9:32am On May 13, 2019
Gbola5:
This is a common misconception - Stannis did not recruit Davos. Davos was all about providing for his family, so he thought that bringing food to a Castle under siege would bring him help. And it did, he became a Landed Knight, now his children can own lands, and will never go hungry, and he can hire a maester to teach them to read and write. Cutting off his fingers was payment for his past crimes.
Maybe I need to get me hands on those books ASAP. Thanks, brother, for the distinction.

shogz89:
he did not really tell Ned the reason.. What he told Ned was he helped him avenge Ned's father and brother's death.. The real confession was to Brienne of tarth in a pool after they were captured and his hands cut off. One of The reason she sees jaime as an honorable man.
Thanks bro. Glad you pointed this out too.

echibuogwu:
he did and he told him plainly that it did not justify what he did.
Nah, come on. You call that joke of a scene a real confessionhuh You need to go back and watch his 'in-the-pool confession ' to Brienne during their captivity in the North. That singular action almost broke him.
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 10:29pm On May 12, 2019
echibuogwu:
and Nah, that wasn’t honor, that was being unbiased and just
If Ned was fair and just at all, he'd at least listen to Jaime's reasons and empathize just a lil bit. After all, Ned, too, helped a usurper to the throne, with good reasons to back it up.
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 10:13pm On May 12, 2019
echibuogwu:
Ned had every reason to praise Jaime for what he did but he didn’t because he knows Jaime did the wrong thing... the mad king killed his brother and burnt his father alive that was enough reason for him to even praise Jaime so don’t say he understands nothing
Like I said, Ned was a honorable fool. You'd expect such a reaction from a man like that.
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 10:02pm On May 12, 2019
echibuogwu:
Jaime save the city , yes but not by killing the Mad king. Even Ned Stark wasn’t pleased with what he did.
Ned didn't understand jackshit about why Jaime did what he did. He was a most honorable fool, remember? He judged the poor guy without giving him a chance to defend himself..


Brienne might be the only one in the realm who understands why Jaime killed Aerys.

Endy10:
I don't just understand the guy.
He also Jaime should have held the king hostage. How? When other kings guard could walk in any time?

Aerys commanded Jaime to kill his father and bring his head to him. He also wanted him to bear witness to genocide and do nothing. He deserved to die.

Jaime broke his vow... Yes. But what he did saved the realm. He did the right thing
I agree absolutely.
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 9:42pm On May 12, 2019
echibuogwu:
Jaime didn’t do the right thing, even everybody in Westeros knows that. He could have deliver the mad king to the rebellion. Will you blame the mad king for ordering for the head of Tywin? That nigga betrayed him.
But Tywin was his father. Aerys thrust upon him a difficult decision and he made it. Say what they will, the Mad King would have laid the whole KL low, if not for Jaime. He saved half a million defenseless people.. Isn't that what knights do?
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 9:32pm On May 12, 2019
Endy10:
Aerys let suspicion turn him into an unrecognizable king... A mad one. One not fit for the realm. Even his son Rheagar sort to oust him. He didn't deserve the oath the kings guard swore him.

If Jaime hadn't killed him, no one in kings landing would be alive. Not even Rhaella, Aerys' wife who should have also enjoyed the protection of the kings guard.

Like Jaime said to Brienne, he saved the realm. Oath or no oath Jaime did the right thing. Even though Aerys was king, that doesn't mean he get to hide behind an oath after all his atrocities.
The psycho even commanded Jaime to murder Tywin. And that one was supposed to kill his own beloved father under the guise of keeping one useless oathhuh
Jaime did the right thing.

"The more people you love, the
weaker you are. You’ll do things for
them that you know you shouldn’t do.
You’ll act the fool to make them
happy, to keep them safe. Love no
one but your children; on that front a
mother has no choice”

Cersei was lecturing Sansa when she said the above, all right, but why do I feel Dany, instead, should've been the one taking down 'em notes - long before the horror that has befallen her in the last couple of episodes - before she ever laid eyes on Jon. At least she'd still be whole and sane.

Now, she has just a child left and plenty of enemies out and within. All her genuine subjects and advisers gone like a puff of smoke, yet she's still no closer to that ugly ol' Iron Throne she risked it all for!

Why wouldn't she go mad on everyone.??


Let the Dracaryings begin already!

Quick question guys
We all know ser davos is not a fighter, we are not even sure if he can wield a sword....so how did he become a knighthuh
You don't have to be a fighter to be conferred with knighthood. During Robert's rebellion, Stannis, who was holding Storm's End, the traditional home of the Baratheons, faced a difficult siege that lasted half a year or so. He recruited Davos to help smuggle onion and salt into Storm's End during this period; and well, the Onion Knight did his thing .

Davos, thereafter was knighted by Stannis for his commitment and loyalty.
But what good did that noble act bring him? He lost two fingers to Robert's brother for his trouble - smuggling crimes.

Chelsea needs the Europa cup to make history also. Don't forget that.

Let them win burnley and pray Tottenham lose, else, no way in
Do you realise that for Arsenal to go 4th, they'll have to beat Burnley by as many as 7 goals and pray that Everton beat Spurs by the odd goal? We trail by 3points and 8 whopping goals!
