They should have had Littlefinger p1ss his pants to show how totally unprepared he was for being out-manoeuvred like that. It had been bugging me for a while that Sansa hadn’t locked him up/offed him anyway for the fact he had married her off to Ramsay Bolton alone. It’s not like the Knights of the Vale would have given a damn about him. His position with them was paper-thin at best anyway, and they were ready to support Sansa to the hilt.
The Littlefinger dispatching was a bit too ‘extra-judicial’ for my liking. Shouldnt he have been entitled to the Westerosi due process of ‘trial by combat!’ like Tyrion (x2)? Could then have also gotten an arya as champion fight scene…
Yep, he was pretty far up the ol’ proverbial creek at that point. I liked him getting the “yeah, nah” from the Knights of the Vale honcho.
As we like to say in the Army when someone is feeling a little bit sorry for themselves “If you’re looking for sympathy, you’ll find it in the dictionary somewhere between shi.t and syphilis.”
I think you heard that wrong.
The targaryen conquest was roughly 350 years ago at the start of the series.
Targs are meant to live longer, but basically it’s the same as us, ie Maester Aemon is super old at about 100, Tywin a statesman at roughly 70 when he went, the Lannister twins and N stark and R Baratheon about the same age (40 ish)
About the third scene of the show is a brother and sister rooting, we’ve denoted a few generations of Targ brother/sister rooting, Craester’s “wives” were often his daughters… so… incest, yah reckon?
Just read on one of the GoT insider sites that while a great deal of the wall was demolished a small section remained that looked similar to the section where Tormund & Beric were last seen scampering towards …So
The writers are definitely leaving it open for them to be alive, by not directly showing their demise. They’d be handy characters for the final season.
I wonder how much they make through subscriptions and selling it o/s
I reckon they would make more money if they made 3 movies of 2 episodes each and showed them as block buster releases over the course of the year. They’d make $10 billion easy world wide and could then sell it off as a series in 2020 anyway. Guess it will depend what their contracts say with foxtel and the like.
He didn’t deny the charges, by pleading for mercy he had basically confessed. The penalty for treason is death and it ain’t the real so he best just suck it up.
