no I mean Gendry....Arya kills the night king....then kills Dany....then we conclude with Gendry being pregnant.

Rumored on the internet as the triple play.

Another thing I learned on my internet travels: hilariously, the GOT (particularly Benioff) guys might actually be genuine racists. I heard the controversy about there being a lack of black characters on GOT and brushed it off as what is called 'SJW' nonsense. But they did just go and wipe out an entire race of non-white characters in the show last episode, and they were portrayed as mindless savages with no specific characters, and we only have two tokens left who are also slaves. So far just a coincidence considering the source material.

Then you realize David Benioff wrote the 25th Hour, which people only remember because of the racist ranting scene. It's a good scene.

Then you realize they are trying to do a fantasy show where the South won the civil war and slavery still exists. Hmmm.

Then, and here's the part where I actually went 'what the fuck?'

They wanted to do a show called 'Dirty White Boys' which is a book that starts with a white supremacist prisoner heroically fending off rape from a black inmate. The reason that Benioff wanted to do a series on the book? Because he thought the first line in the book was the greatest opening line in history.

The line? "Three men at McAlester State Penitentiary had larger penises than Lamar Pye but all were black, and therefore by Lamar's own figuring, hardly human at all."

At the very least he's utterly obsessed with racism and racist violence in fiction, which means it doesn't add up that he just didn't think about these things in Game of Thrones. He knows what he is doing.

Looks like the 'SJWs' were on to something and didn't even realize it.

I've been binging this book since the other day. Only a third in but it's only race focused for prison reasons then not so much. The antihero is however a white guy with a penis so large it's worth mentioning multiple times.

It's excellent story telling.

How a man get pregnant. Just say Arya.
None of the theory on net has been true.

I wish my FB post from like 6 years ago would come up in my memories where I said Dany would continue where her dad left off. Everyone told me I was fucking stupid.... WELL WELL MOTHER FUCKERS

Last week was coffee-gate. Yesterday was hand-gate.




Guess its symptomatic of this season - everything rushed, gaping holes. Yeah.

Most of his communication in ep5 was nonverbal.

Not everyone was able to pick up on it, but for those of us who were, it was truly incredible acting.

He is genuinely a pretty good actor. Underrated because his character isn't conducive to the types of emotions that people wank all over.

Emilia Clarke has been much, much better this season. Arya is the weird one. She was genuinely a better actor as a child. I don't how you get worse at your profession than when you were 10 but somehow she did.

It's one thing that the writing hasn't been able to take away. They were able to get together such a ridiculously good cast of actors for a TV show. Obviously the Stark kids aren't that great, but you can't help that when you have to hire children.

Aside from the main cast, they were able to fill even bit parts with A-class talent. The guy who played Locke (guy who cut off Jaime's hand) is a tiny role but that's Noah Taylor who is one of Australia's best actors. Even the chick who played that random wildling girl in one episode is top notch.

Agree with most of this but Emilia Clarke is generally terrible when she isn't playing Daenerys Targaryen.

I know. I think she's a bad actress. But she's been pretty good this season and showed improvement.

Acting can be impacted by writing and directing pretty significantly too. Lena Heady has been a ridiculous mustache-twirling cliche villain for two seasons - if that's all you'd seen of her, you'd probably think she's a pretty shit actress when of course she's actually very good.

I forgot another bit part played by another really good actress - the one in fact playing the actress who plays Cersei that Arya is supposed to kill (the whole point is that she's a good actress in the show, so they had to hire someone good). Essie Davis - she's the mother from The Babadook.
