HBO's "Game of Thrones"

[RikidyBones]

America, a land of puritans who get uncomfortable when an adult woman has consensual sex but applaud when she’s slicing open throats.

That's not really it. It's that everyone started this show with her as a child. Most people still view her as a child. So they relate it to seeing an adolescent naked.

Everyone understands that she is an adult now.

For the record, my reaction was to cringe for a second and then remembered shes an adult now and moved on.

Where are these puritans? All is see is pc social justice warriors who are offended at the wind when it blows their hair out of place

Ha! You’re blaming sjw’s but it’s a bunch of old men clutching their chests saying “she’s a child!” Where was the same reaction when the child stabbed the fat boy or baked the Freys into pie? We are weird about this, admit it.

I teach my kids to defend themselves. I'll avoid a crass comment about the other activity.

Yet in their lives they’ll do the other activity thousands of times more than they’ll physically defend themselves (which I agree is important). Ok, that’s about all the comments I have on this, back to lurking.

I don’t see anybody freaking out about either, just a tv show. Maybe two posters in here were uncomfortable but it’s GoT. It’s supposed to make you uncomfortable. I don’t see outrage over it like I do things like philly fans taking down a statue of a woman who raised 600 mil to fight the nazis.

Must be all those Easter worshippers the news is talking about

 

[butchna]

I wonder if the Children of the Forest will have a part to play in the Battle of Winterfell?

Are there any left?

 

[volinbham]

Interesting theory

Spoiler

Jaime dies but Arya uses his face to kill Cersei

Meh, I'm 22 and I had the same reaction.

Yeah I’m pretty sure the ones that died defending Bran were the last of them

I got that impression. It would seem any remnants would have popped their head up as the undead advanced.

Robert Kraft probably wasn't clutching his chest. It is strange that horror movies and blood and gore are much more accepted than any screening of the horizontal bop.

Perhaps she should have been holding a gun in one hand and a bible in the other.

I don't think viewers of GAME OF THRONES are skittish about nudity/sex scenes. We also know that the murders aren't really happening but the nudity?? Arya is played by a girl who we watched grow up. I think that is what is uncomfortable. She may have been 11 when she started?? She looked about 8 years old back then.

The guy who plays him is so good. I can't believe he hasn't gotten an Emmy.

 

[eVOLve]

If you think about it, if he hadn't been cowardly and jumped off the ship, ass monkey would have probably slit his sisters throat. So in actuality, he saved her by being a coward.

I’ve been thinking about the Crypts of Winterfell theory and the thing I realized is that there’s like 60 or 70 dead starks lying there. But there is a secret path that leds out of the crypts to one of the villages. Thats how Bran and Rickon escaped the Iron Born. That’s the only thing I could think of.

 

[BowlBrother85]

There is no more compelling drama than that of great redemption... With Theon, the writers of Game of Thrones have nurtured a character with flaws who the audience will feel a sense of loss when he (most likely) dies in an act of self sacrifice. Brilliant storytelling.

If i remembered right, most of the crypt is collapsed so no one is getting those dead folk.

 

[Orangeslice13]

I’m sure it’s been said but does anyone remember Dany in a dream walking through a frozen destroyed kinds landing in season 1?

I think we see the night king at kings landing and the final battle between those left in the north and the night king.

This is a song of fire and ice after all.
