Oh Shireen. Just when Stannis was like beginning to be all cool and that... Plop.
I do think GoT was way darker and more horrible in the beginning, but I aint complaining about what it is right now
Mate, in the beginning the scripts were more in-line with the books. Awesome writing, the dialogues had enchantment, the character's relationships were totally meaningful. I do think the impact of the writing has decreased vastly from season 6, and they've relied more in the visual aspect of things (super vfx!!!) and cheap peak moments. I do like some of the stuff, the battle of "the long night" for instance... Pffffff what a ride. It was a tremendous piece of work. But last episode was like super poor written (imo). Like "let's just poorly build more tension everywhere after the big battle". There some cool things though. I just wanna see how it ends, there should be some nice things along all the last eps. And the investment! The emotional investment!
Quote from G.R.R. Martin (hahaha grrrrr)
The case of GAME OF THRONES and A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE is perhaps unique. I can't think of any other instance where the movie or TV show came out as the source material was still being written. So when you ask me, "will the show spoil the books," all I can do is say, "yes and no," and mumble once again about the butterfly effect. Those pretty little butterflies have grown into mighty dragons. Some of the 'spoilers' you may encounter in season six may not be spoilers at all... because the show and the books have diverged, and will continue to do so.
There's a sample chapter of the not-yet-published book "the winds of winter" in which is suggested Stannis and Shireen walk a totally different path.
A dark spider is greatly appealing (￢‿￢ ).
Yeah, Stannis' fans are apparently not happy at all with how he was portrayed in the series, but I have to agree with you, that last episode was very weak. There's so many times I was rolling my eyes when I was watching it > ___ > !!!
I do look forward to seeing how they wrap it up in the next two episodes, but yeah, this season has not been particularly stellar, in this spider's opinions!
Z...zeen likes dark spider???? :thinking emoji:
Totally agree matey. I think I can confidently admit that I like all spiders. But the darker they are... the brighter they shine (☆ω☆).
