LindG1000 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I can't help but be disappointed at how last night's episode ended. I was SO SURE they'd end with Stoneheart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I can't help but be disappointed at how last night's episode ended. I was SO SURE they'd end with Stoneheart. I think the problem with that is it's almost another kick to the nuts of the people who were finding Caitlin dead being the one bright side to the Red Wedding. I remember when I was reading it, that was the only good thing about the scenario. As much as I wanted an ahah moment to end the season, I get why they instead concentrated on showing the rest of the Stark children to soothe those upset. It would have been perfect if they could have moved on to Joffrey's wedding, but I think that would cover too much story to do in one episode while still covering other things and also wouldn't leave much for the second half of the book for season 4.

I just felt like the ending was kinda weak. More dragons flying over slaves? Cmon. So much story has to be covered before Joff's wedding to make it right. You need to cover the Tyrells more - specifically Olenna and unveil her intentions more clearly. You need to cover the Martells, and introduce them, as well as the Elia/Rhaegar backstory that establishes them as Targaryen loyalists. You need to explain Oberyn...period - mostly because he's a badass. The Joff/Tyrion relationship is very clearly being shown as sour at this point - so that's good news for starters.

NYRangers92 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 It would've been kinda hard for them to find a cliffhanger to end on when they're only a little more than half way through a story. One that could've worked was coldhands. Or dany finding out about jorah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 I completely agree with Coldhands. That'd have been the perfect way to end it, not with that stupid love-fest of all the slaves loving Dany with dragons flying. We've already seen that before.

Fuhgeddaboudit Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I completely forgot about Coldhands, can someone explain that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRangers92 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 He would've been so much better than bran going through random unguarded tunnel through the wall that isn't explained. Too bad tormunds party didn't know that it existed haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Dany standing on that rock with her knights at here side and her dragons in front makes a nice posstcard though. :D I am still amazed how much I love Tywin on the show, such an awesome character. In the books he was totally dominated by Tyrions feelings towards him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High and Wide Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Definitely agree about Coldhands. I was expecting that to end the episode. Very disappointed at the ending. Dany's storyline at this point, and for the near future is just really not interesting. Its too bad they left off with her. That said, I liked that they showed every other story line. Everything else that was significant was covered. Maester Aemon's letters, Davos freeing Gendric(Edric/Gendry mash-up), Bran's encounter with Sam.

siddious Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Yea I loved reading Dany's story in the books up until this point. After this it gets kind of boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRangers92 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 scaling back her storyline for next season could be beneficial though. Less CG budget for her dragons and more towards the battle at Castle Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRangers92 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 with all the stuff they didnt get to yet, the overarching theme of next season is should probably be betrayal Jorah to Dany Tyrells at PW Bronn to Tyrion Shae to Tyrion Everybody else except Varys to Tyrion Tyrion to Tywin Probably forgetting more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Well Betrayal was a topic during the whole SoS, it already started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
