Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Really, it could be Craster and any of his wives/daughters.
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Another one:

Stannis & Melisandre - I don't even know how to classify magic vagina smoke babies..
Renly & Loras - Violence Involved (took a while, but eventually it has caused issue for Loras) (I wouldn't say their relationship caused Renly's death)

Renly & Margaery - don't know if that was ever consumated.
Gendry & Melisandre - after getting him going, she dropped leeches on him, including one on his wang. How does that fit the categories?
Viserys and various whores
Robert Baratheon and Cersei - would that count if it's only mentioned as a memory?

Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Amazingly, this may qualify as one of the most wholesome and unproblematic couplings. The other would be Drogo and Daenerys.

Guess what? Both of those couples' "relationships" started the exact same way that Sansa's and Ramsey's did. They didn't show Robert and Cersei on the screen but in the books, it is recalled, and the description isn't much different than Sansa/Ramsey, just subtract Theon from the mix. Hell, Drogo and Daenerys may be the "best" couple in this show, and that started out by Dany's brother basically selling her to a Dothraki Horselord, who married her and raped her in front of his whole Khal. (happened a little different than that in show)

Well, you never wake up to the same person you married...
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

I've seen reactions from people on twitter and facebook about this episode, saying that this is the last straw, and they're done with this series. Seriously? THIS is the last straw? You didn't see this coming? I mean, this is a show where the worst **** possible happens to the characters you like the most. If you didn't already have an inkling that this was where Sansa was heading, then you shouldn't have been watching this show to begin with.

Right, like anyone would think her arranged marriage to Ramsey Bolton, the noted flayer and torturer, would be flowers on her pillow and breakfast in bed, while snuggling Sunday mornings away together in bed reading the Westeros Times.

Edit (stupid phone!)
Drogo and Dany? Not Ned and Catelyn?

Yeah, they're there too, but we only saw them for an episode or 2 together, so we didn't get much of their relationship in the show. But going by what we know, they would have also been one of the few stable ones we've seen.
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

What really gets me about much of the online reaction to that scene is the amount of phony people claiming to be outraged, because it happened to Sansa and "She doesn't deserve it!" Oh, ok. So maybe it's sorta bad when rape happens to someone else, but when it's the pretty young(ish) girl, then it's somehow worse? People are so stupid.
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

What everyone knew was coming to Cersei finally came. Interested to watch Jon's interactions with Thenns next week.
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Tyrion Lannister and Daenerys Targaryen actually met. Only been waiting ten years for that.
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

In the very first episode, are the seven women who surround the "mad king" on his death bed, the same ones that just brought Cersei in?
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Sam got himself some Gillyweed and Cersei made Tywin's admonition of her from last season come to fruition: that she's not as smart as she thinks she is because finally realized that she's made a weapon for playing the Game of Thrones that's stronger than herself.

The Mad King never makes an appearance in Game of Thrones...he was killed by the Kingslayer something like 10 years before the events in the first episode of GoT. So, I'm not sure what you're talking about...


Loved this episode. Lots of good storyelines bearing fruit. Sam finally gets with Gilly, Cersei gets her desevrings, and Tyrion meets Dany. The rest of this season is going to be turned up a few notches, I'm guessing.
 
Re: Game of Thrones, Season V: Arya Ready?

Episode nine of each season is usually the climax of events (Ned's Lost Head, Red Wedding, Purple Wedding, Battle at Castle Black) with episode ten dealing with the fallout. Just to give a slight bit of thought to the progression of the show's history. I'm excited to see where it goes this year. I'm wagering it'll be the battle at Winterfell for which they've been selling all season long or something to do with Dany. The High Sparrow's story will be the season conclusion. All speculation on my part, but it's just how I see the season ending.

Agreed ... more sensible outcome than last week. I actually like this slight change in the players in Cersei's (temporary?) downfall. More meaningful and delicious that it's her own cousin spilling the truth than some former hedge knight. However, don't lose sight of the fact that, if all the hints in the book and from last season really point to something important, the evil b**** will have a big, big card up her sleeve when/if she goes to trial.

In the very first episode of the series who is the guy laying dead on the table in Kings Landing then with the seven ladies circling him?
