OT: GoT S7E02
- Thread starter The Maroon Pug
- Start date
So-so episode IMO. Vary's speech and Jon Snow's speech was good. Didn't really understand the Arya staring off into space in the tavern and the wolf scene. Wasted story line to me. Liked the Samwell/Jorah thing. So Euron's gift to Cersei is a sand snake?
edit to add:
If Missandei can't make you get it up, then you are a eunuch.

Euron is awesome.
And yes he is bringing the woman that killed Cersi's daughter.. to the mad queen herself.
Overall I thought the episode was really good.
That was Arya's direwolf, Nymeria. They parted ways in season 1 so Cersi/Robert would not kill Nymeria for attacking Prince Jeoffery.

I liked it. Everything was going in favor of Dany and something had to change or it would be a bloodbath.
GRRM has given "guidlines" moreso than telling them what to write. The show and books will end in the same spot, its just the show will take an alternative ending approach so to speak.
As for Euron's cartoon-like lines, he is suppose to be a Joker-type villian, a true wildcard. Much different from what we have seen with some unlikeable characters within GoT.

I thought it was a below average episode. Just not a lot of plot progress. It was nice to see Nymeria for the first time in 6 years (20+ years for original book fans!). Hopefully that's not the last we see of her. Speaking of direwolves, where the hell is Ghost? Mercifully, the Sand Snakes are dead. So tired of Theon crapping the bed in big situations. I wanted him to die heroically tonight at Euron's hands. So Theon can cut down scores of Euron's men with no problem, but when his uncle makes a dick joke his PTSD comes back? Okay. In any case, the Jon Snow/Dany meeting next week should be interesting.
I would say Euron's gift is the murderer of Cersi's daughter and destroying Dany's navy. Now Tyrion's plan doesn't work.
It wasn't a bad episode, I'm just tired of the "wait til the last minute for any action so you have to tune in next week!"
The only complaint with episode 2 is the entry of Euron; somewhat tacky and sloppy but overall action scene was really good. I'm hoping that one of the Sand Snakes/Yara will take the place of another book character and drink some blue liquid in The Silence.
I'm actually more excited for the Unsullied vs. Lannisters than Dany/Jon. Finally get to see how good the Unsullied will be at formation fighting.

He's wearing gloves and full sleeves.
The scene transition from the pus to the pie was even better than last week's poop/soup.

It's why the procedure was discontinued due to its danger. I expect Khaleesi to go full on "dracarys" now and lay waste to kings landing and Casterly Rock. Plus, I expect either Tyrion, Khaleesi, or Jon and at least one dragon to die while riding a dragon. The spear thing will end a dragon and a main character I bet.
Might be Yara. Remaining Sand Snake is going to be killed by Cersei with a kiss in front of her mother.
Yara must have a role to play, otherwise why not cut her throat? Ellaria is a good enough gift. The hot sand snake is still alive and I expect a reunion with Ser Bronn.
Euron's move basically took Dorne out of the picture. If Tarly takes out the Reach then Danerys will have no choice but to attack kings landing with Dragons and Dothraki. So she will indeed be the queen of ashes. Although she is stuck in dragonstone now without her fleet and we are starting to see more Mad King coming out in her.
I liked the episode. You can't go balls to the wall every single week, and they closed last season with two crazy episodes. You've got to take some time to re-set the chess board.
We're now on the path to several different stories that are really intriguing:
1. Euron has Yara and Ellaria, presumably to take to Cersei. At least one of those two is kicking the bucket soon.
2. The Unsullied are marching on Casterly Rock, which is an important location that we've never seen on the show if my memory is correct.
3. Jon and Khaleesi will be meeting soon. Which makes me feel like we might be getting some Dothraki/Dragons vs. White Walkers before too much longer.
4. Arya is finally headed back to Winterfell, and she's far removed from the little girl she was when she last saw her family.
My gut tells me that Sansa will do something big while Jon is away that will likely backfire. I'm also curious to see where they're going with The Hound, Sam and Jorah, and Theon. Not sure what the end game is there, but I'm intrigued.

I fear Arya is getting offed. They've made her too likeable. She's going to miss Jon, she got to say goodbye to Nymeria, and they made sure you saw she made a choice between KL or Winterfell which means the decision is going to have consequences. Possibly good though.
How did Snow not tell Sansa and Brienne about Littlefinger's intentions? He grabbed the dude by the throat and then just took off? I would tell Brienne to stay close by.
The fight scene was the weakest one yet. Too fast, the graphics were flickering almost because they were trying to cram it all in

I think everyone knows Littlefinger's intentions. Sansa said as much in episode 1.
I think Littlefinger is about to die. Hopefully from a follower of the Faceless God.
This bothers me too.
Hell, you can call her Dany if you can't spell it. Khaleesi is just one of her titles. On a lighter note, Lord Tarly's other son's name is Dickon.

Littlefinger has played the game very well so far.
He's responsible for a lot of what's gone down - he and Varys as the primary puppet masters. I don't expect him to go down so easy. However, when he does, I could see a half dozen possible characters that could take him down - Jon, Sansa, Arya, Nymeria, Brianne, hell even Sandor if he finds Sansa or Arya in distress.

2 things. Someone had their tongue cut out, a nod to Eurons book ship Silence. He also wielded an axe like Victarion.
Felt like the battle should be something you looked forward to, but he gives a 17 about the sand sneks or Yara?
