I want Daenerys Targaryen to win this war and take the thrones. Kill everyone with the dragons. And yeah everyone is grey in this series.

What book does season 3 cover? just for curiosity´s sake.

Half of A Storm of Swords.

The next season will finish the rest of the book while leading into the next book I believe.
 
I want Jon Snow to become more important!

And then when he's about to turn the tides of battle, Yrgritte comes along and kills him for his betrayal.
 
The more and more I think, there is no real good and evil anymore.

There never was.

Good and evil are easy terms for lazy people to use.

Real life is the same, and the best writers realize that. There's those who are mentally incapable of understanding their actions, i.e. sociopathy or insanity, but genuinely cackling HA HA HA I AM SOOO EVIL does not exist.

Everyone thinks they're the good guy.
 
Watched Ep9 last night.


What in the fucking fuck? I had a grip on the war dynamics in the GoT world before the episode started, but this changes everything.

I haven't read the books, but I can only assume the Wildlings' actions will leave the Wall crippled and ineffective in it's protection from the White Walkers, allowing for an invasion, changing the dynamics of this war once again. I cannot imagine the Greyjoys stopping them, since they have no trackrecord of land-based warfare.

I hope the Targaryan girl gets some more moments to shine, she was badass in the slave-city where she traded a dragon for 80.000 soldiers.
 
But if good and evil are moral definitions, how is an amoral person not evil? :)

He is unconcerned if his actions are "good" or "evil", doesn't care about morality.

but maybe amoral doesn't describe him properly. He has his own moral compass: Lannisters and their legacy is everything.

At least it's good for my kill count.

Is there a current count? :D

I got spoilt in this thread last week, I'm pretty bitter toward the, currently banned, fecker.
 
If all Tywin did was organize a gang bang... I don't think we can categorize him as evil! :lol

Yeah, because i'm sure if she just said:
"Na, don't really feel like sleeping with 100 soldiers right now to torture your son, thanks", Tywin would be cool with that.

If it helps, I saw the now-banned spoiler spammer ranting about his ban somewhere else. Turns out he's some weird guy who is like 40 and has kids.

Ponder the meaning of this and maybe think about exactly WHO could be behind these keyboards sometimes. It certainly makes me think hard about what anonymity does to people, as this is a grown man, not some 4chan pubescent troll...yet the behavior's the same.

Something to be learned here.

I pity his kids TBH. I doubt he is that much more mature in real life either.

Anyway I still enjoyed the episode. The stomach stabbing was shocking. I just wasn't surprised during the build up.

I've never seen so many throats cut in one scene, and the orgy of killing during one of the camera pans of the room was disturbing.

That gives me a headache just looking at it.

guess I'm #team onehandman now (and maybe Arya), no one else to root for.

And someone better not bring up Stannis, because no one wants to root for him.

#TeamStannis checking in.
 
Was watching this Game of Thrones Emmy Panel yesterday. Seems like the Red Wedding was the main reason they wanted to do the TV-show (4m30sek). And those feels at around 49min30sek when the girls are asked who they want to see on the Iron throne :( Very funny panel though, watched the whole thing.
 
Is melisandre really evil though ?

No one's evil and everyone's evil to someone. That's the whole point.

Melisandre, though, is willing to have people killed for her God. Up to you whether or not that's evil, because it's not as if that doesn't happen today...
 
Yeah, having Tyrion's wife gang raped saved thousands of people from dying...!


...Seriously, what?

Not sure how to respond to this, but, if I recall correctly, its described different in the books.

Is it okay to describe how it went in the books with spoiler tags? It isn't spoilers per se, but some might want to read the books and see how they described it.

Nope, I wouldn't risk it. Lot of people got banned for mentioning the books here. Even behind spoiler tags

The books don't exist in this thread.
 
Am I the only one who thinks Game of Thrones could benefit from a longer season?

This isn't an opinion of someone who's read the books, because I haven't. But, I don't think you have to have read the books to get the feeling that there's a lot of information that the show just hasn't been able to cover. So much going on, and a lot of strange pacing choices (Theon's torture, spending so much time with Stannis when nothing he's doing seems particularly interesting right now, pretty much everything that happened in the last episode...).

I'm also finding, once getting over the shock of the show butchering half its cast like that, the ending of the last episode didn't really resonate with me. In fact, it seems strange that ALL of these characters would get killed before they even got to accomplish anything, or really develop. We were building up to something big...that just got completely snuffed out. Was that entire arc a waste of time?

I feel like even a small upgrade to a 12 episode season would do the show a world of good. We're almost done with the season, and the only arc that has had any sort of resonance with me is Brienne and Jamie's.
