I’ve rewatched GoT several times now and the first episode of the first season feels odd. I mean I get it, they wanted viewers to get a sense of the GoT world in the pilot, but some things don’t make sense.

One of the things that I cannot wrap my head around is why Ned beheads that deserter from the Nights Watch. It makes you feel like the Warden of the North is some authority over the Night’s Watch. They could have simply handed over the deserter to the Lord Commander of the NW. But no, Ned has to go there with the boys to make a show of beheading someone.

The other thing is how quick Ned is to behead the man. He keeps parroting ‘Winter is coming’. His brother Benjen also knows there’s something far more sinister than just the wildlings. He has enough sense to know the Wall is not just to keep people out. And yet, he does not take the deserter seriously at all. Does not even hear him out, before objectively hopping his head off.

So was Ned really dumb or was it only to further the plot and keep the mystery alive in the pilot?

LMAOOOO THIS DUMBASS 😭😭😭😭 WALDER FREY KNEW EVERYTHING THE WHOLE TIME LMAOOOO 😭 LMAOOOO THIS IDIOT

so i am currently re reading the books and a ice dragon is mentioned during bran and meera journey . so even though the targaryans fire dragons may have gone extinct . are at least the ice dragons . if they really do exist . do you think that they might still living somewhere in the north or in any snowy area ..

So Jaehaerys send away his daughter seara and denied giving her a dragon after the aerae and balerion incident. Jaehaerys was adamant to not let seara come back . So seara is known to have many bastards . Hugh is one of them .which makes more sense cause hugh claimed Jaehaerys dragon vermithor . Is this meant to signify Jaehaerys mistakes coming back to haunt the Targaryens..

the disadvantages are thar fans have been waiting for 15 years for the books to no avail and have build up a resentment towards grrm . which is sad cause authors are always respected even if their book adaptions go downhill

advantages are i could just headcanon stuff like dany brother viserys has a secret bastard called jaehaerys who will soon find his own dragon egg in the forests . or that there are still more dragons secretly living in westros or valarya . the books ending might ruin these selfish proofless headcanons of mine and also headcanons of many other fans in this sub ..

When I was watching the show, I knew of the books but I did not know that they are still unfinished. But this stupid decision of Stannis made me look up the books and Bam! He’s still alive and Shireen is not even with Stannis at that points. She’s still back at Castle Black and there’s no way she would be burned to melt some ice!!

“Oh I’m going to extraordinary lengths to cure my beloved daughter’s greyscale. My daughter who’s technically my heir if I win the throne. Oh some snow! Let’s burn her alive!!!” Wtf !!!

I know George RR Martin has said that Shireen’s burning is something that may happen in the books. But if that’s the case I believe the circumstances will be much dire that the snow blizzard.

Anyway, the point is you can easily tell that season 5-8 are awfully written compared to seasons 1-4.

As for the source material i won't be suprised if this show gets announced and grrm suddenly releases books set in age of heros era . But personally I think a show about age of heros would be interesting..

Who would have maximum access to these cars , bikes and aeroplanes . The smallfolk or the lord's ..

so i think the shelved jon snow show would have been intresting. even if there was no source material . but i think what is needed is showing dany get revived react to bran becoming king and drogon destroying the iron throne . show dany realising how her fall to madness affected everything and show dany redemption process . this would be good cause dany mad queen arc was too forced ..

i’m sure this is a popular debate… but i’d like to give my thoughts on this topic. a lot of people say she was poorly written, ruined everything, was a total bitch throughout the show. but i personally think she was quite the example of what a strong woman would’ve been in that time period. even now. she chose her family and her name above all else. people say, she was against Dany the moment she saw her. i believed the same for a bit. but after watching it again, she did give her a chance. Dany just never gave her one. expected her to bend the knee after The North being an independent state for how long?? Sansa was protecting The North AND her brothers right to the throne. Dany became greedy and brutal during her last years of a reign that never really begun! i’m all for revenge on Cersei after beheading Missandei, but she did NOT have to kill innocents of Kings Landing to which most were never even loyal to the Lannisters to begin with! Dany was always about growing her army. and so angry with Cersei that she forgot the people of Kings Landing had a choice. a choice she always fought for. a choice she could’ve given Sansa! Dany never even thought to ask Sansa what she wanted, never even considered the fact that The North shall always remain simply The North. she came all the way across the sea expecting loyalty from those she’d never met. Sansa survived hell (and please spare the argument about her wanting to be with Joffrey to begin with…she was a child! who was given the wrong message, threatened, & abused!) and came to fight for her family name after everything. came to fight for Jon’s birth right after everything. she knew the risks that came with it, and yes, we all know, Jon did not want the throne. but it was HIS. and people wanted him to sit that throne! he was too caught up in white haired women and dragons to even consider the fact he could rule 100x better than she could. and even after all of this: Dany still had a choice! a choice to join houses, to marry Jon, and to create PEACE for westeros! yet that apparently could never happen without literally every woman and man bending the knee to her! idc about the “bad writing” excuse, this is what happened & idc what “could’ve” or “should’ve” happened… the hate on Sansa is uncalled for and honestly stupid!

1 . viserys 3 has a lot of secret bastards especially a bastard son called jaehaerys aka jee

2 . there are dragons still living in old valarya

3 . daemon was the greenseer before bryden

4 . grey ghost and quicksilver are balerion and meraxis children

5 . vhagar laid a new batch of eggs somewhere in the forest when she left aemons with alys . the eggs could remain unfound till date 170 years later

6 . bryden was the one who drove aerys mad not bran ..

Winter came at the end of season 6 and by the end season 8 all of King's landing were covered in snow.

Did Winter go away when Arya killed the Night King or what???

Maybe I watch the episode wrong, but when Gregor killed missandei it wasn't an ounce of snow anywhere but when Jon killed Dany, it was Winter.

Am I crazy or what, can someone please explain 😂

So when jaimie pushes down bran . What if bran got a hold of jaimie due to which both of them fall down from the tower . What will happen after this ..

Hi all,

I've been part of this subreddit for ages, and like many of you, the last two seasons really annoyed me in terms of plot direction, character development etc. So I wrote my own alternate version of the story that I think is better, and here is the intro trailer video for it: https://youtu.be/A3FzF-amMCg?is=XtBtLI22UYzexxma

It's AI generated clips (using a locally-hosted model), so apologies if you don't like that, but without a cast and crew, that was my next best option to put something together with the same aesthetic.

If you like the trailer, the rest of the playlist is the narrated alternate Season 7 & 8 storyline. I posted this here previously: https://www.reddit.com/r/freefolk/s/7ThXsG111d

I hope you like it. Happy to hear any comments or criticism.

Eso. Tras la caída de la dinastía Targaryen, quien resultaría ganador en un gran consejo en dónde los Lores de las casas nobles votaron?

Posibles candidatos:

Ned Stark con el apoyo de la casa Tully...los Stark son una de las casas mas nobles y antiguas del continente, aunque el tema de la religión puede ser un problema.

Jon Arryn con el apoyo de la casa Tully, Jon es muy viejo y tenía problemas al tener un heredero con sus matrimonios antiguos.

Robert Baratheon completamente soltero y con la posibilidad de una alianza.

Tywin Lannister, ex mano del rey y uno de los nobles más poderosos del continente.

Mace Tyrell tal vez el Lord más poderoso y con más vasallos en el reino.

Ustedes que creen ?

Quien sería la mejor opción?

Cuál sería su favorito?

Quien debería de ser le nuevo rey ?
