well the Tyrells were no danger to tommen
her war agianst them was just her being an idiot
The Tyrells are shit at fighting. Growing strong is the weakest of all House words.
they were a danger to her power. she cares more about power than her family
That, and I think we were meant to believe that the Tarly's convinced all of the reach's bannermen to turn on the Tyrells.
I think.
Damn, this is still going on? Need two threads at this point.
One for discussion and another for people to piss and moan.
One for discussion and another for people to piss and moan.
But they'd still be a growing problem. You can't really just ignore an army of zombies.
Good luck getting past that army of his, and his patrols.
How did they manage to besiege, breach, and capture Highgarden in a week then. Or did Tarly also convince their guards to open the gates for them too? Also, since when is Tarly a great orator or politician that he can convince other Lords such? His House isn't even that Noble amidst other Houses of the Reach. How the hell did he convince Leyton Hightower to just sit back and let the Tyrells be conquered?
How? If all the Wildlings made it North of the Wall and all the remaining Wildings were turned, how could it be a "growing" problem?
Now that I think about it, the living army could ha e literally just sprinkled dragon glass dust all over the place and the micro cuts would basically vaporize the entire undead horde. Then just sprinkle more on the ones that climb over
Very very cynical people in nerd fandoms who need to feel validated. Unfortunately cynicism and anger is a very lucrative market when it comes to youtube.
Mmmnm, maybe i should jump into that hype of being angry and loud and faux offended on youtube. It's very hip. And i only need to be loud and use the word "literally" a lot.
You can feel the lack of integrity in this video.

but what if winter never ended without killing the night king?
the Others seem to be the reason why this planet has elongated summers and winters, so what if once the winter solstice came about, the night king kept it that way? eternal winter until hes destroyed?
I tried watch that same dude's TFA analysis/takedown video and couldn't even finish. And remember, I don't even really like TFA. Yet, his complaints were far too nitpicky and just "angry nerd shit" that had little to do with story, themes, character or anything important.
She cares about both. At least she isn't currently starting a war with dragons just so she can claim power.
The army of the dead's forces were already overwhelming to the extent that they had decimated Winterfell even before any wights had been revived with a near united force of the north, wildlings, and an army of Dothraki and Unsullied.
In the dragonpit episode (after the rather awful Beyond the Wall one) we're given a lower bound by Daenerys of roughly 100,000 in the army. After years of civil wars and a completely fractured kingdom it's not hard to see how an army of that scale is a serious threat to the south if it remained in the same state of constant conflict it had been in (which we know it almost certainly would have been without Jon given Danaerys was set on conquering the kingdom), and had not been united by Jon. The dragons would be in a position to more freely dispatch a substantial number of wights without being guarded by the White Walkers, but the wight army alone posed a monumental threat to the continent given its tremendously weakened state.
Are there any good video reviews of this episode that don't have some butthurt angry guy narrating
I don't have the answers sway.

Wasn't it so that it was the Night King who caused the long winters? So assuming he reached a certain strength level, the winter (a previous one which was described as getting so bad lords froze in their castles) would become eternal and would get colder and colder as time went on? Also, when it gets cold enough, wouldn't the sea near the coast freeze over eventually, allowing the army to simply to get around the wall by walking across the nearby ice? (we know they can't swim but they can definitely cross frozen water) If I remember correctly, the army of the dead was already heading for Eastwatch so chances are they were planning to hang out there until the nearby bay froze over and walk around the wall.
This is speculation. Though I admit it makes sense. There is no record of what seasons were like before the Long Night, and the Long Night was known as such because it lasted a generation. But then, after the new Dawn, we still had long winters and summers, of varying lengths too, so what causes the seasons being erratic? If it's the Others it's very unclear how it works.
The Night King has been around for 8000 years. If he's the one who causes winter to arrive, he could just sit back beyond the Wall and let his eternal winter ravage Westeros from a safe distance.
also, somehow the lannister army made it to highgarden and managed to take it without dany knowing about it. i guess using the dragons for recon never occurred to anyone.
Ozzyman is imo the best reviewer for GoT because he makes a point of actually trying to understand what the episode was aiming at before airing criticism. And the dude is funny as hell. I always default to him for GoT episode reviews.
I guess it's okay to root for dictators when it comes to GoT
i wonder what the last 3 epiosdes of the adventures of chad summerchild are
scrappy doo killed the squisher king
scrappy doo killed the squisher king
Is Ozzyman and Preston Jacobs good? I only watch Alt Shift X and the video I posted popped up on r/asoiaf, so I really only watch Alt Shift X.
preston jacobs is the best asoiaf youtuber by far, at least if you're into crazy theories.
I'm not rooting for her, but I hope she leaves a wildfire filled cow for the dragons.
Ozzy is fantastic. His season 1 recaps are what made me subscribe to him, he absolutely loves thematic elements and has a very keen eye for recurring patterns most people might miss even on their third viewing.
Where the vale at the battle of winterfell? Last i read they had something like 40k+ soldiers, they could be a huge help to take on cersei if they decide to.
i should say that he mostly just makes fun of the show at this point, so if you're more into the show than books he might not be the way to go.
Sympatheic in the sense that you understand the charactere's motivations
I suppose so unless Dany and Jon are working on the Westerosi Magna Carta right now
She massacred countless innocents in a massive explosion to kill her enemies, including her son's - the king's - wife and rightful queen, and someone just told me that she is "very sympathetic."
Cersei stans on Era are buggin
I literally don't see Cersei stanning anywhere else which is why I ask about it here, this is the only fuckin place lmao
I used to watch this guy but since his shit take on that Gillette ad I've been done.
Literally clicked at 1:25 and it's an angry obnoxious guy narrating.
