I finally finished the season finale of Season 6 of Game of Thrones.

And all I can say of it is one word: Powerful.

ALL HAIL THE KING IN THE NORTH!

Actually, the two characters I like the most in the series are Tyrion and Jaime. Snow is in my eyes not even a proper character because the only reason he's alive right now is to serve the fucking plot and the other Starks are shit IMO apart from Arya, who baked a nice pie, how lovely of her.

I just noticed that I can't even talk about the show without literally putting 90% of things in spoilerboxes.

I think that even those who didn't watch the show know Snow died and came back to life because people are fucking assholes. anyone who used social media around that time probably remembers that the day this episode was released was a fucking disaster. a fuckton of bad 9gag memes and "oh nooo he diiiieeeddd"

I'm still not taking any chances with it, though. It takes me 1 second to put it in a spoilerbox, but it can potentially save someone a gigantic spoiler.

The best acting in the show, by FAR, goes to Ramsay. If half the planet hates your living guts, you know you succeeded as an actor in that role.

Jack Gleeson and David Bradley's acting is also pretty terrific as antagonists Joffrey and Walder Frey

in that I was continuously screaming "Yes! Yes! Yes!" in the style of M. Bison when they were killed.

On a sidenote, Ramsay was actually a pretty good tactician as shown in the Battle of the Bastards in that he nearly eliminated Jon's army. I also enjoyed his death more than I should have because of the poetic justice.

Season 6 was hit and miss. I don't like the idea of resurrecting people because it eliminates the suspense of death. The antagonists are also weakened to laughable levels to make way for the main protagonists(Best example: khals fought countless wars and acted like children in elementary school when they confronted Daenerys).  But we got a tear-jerking sequence of "the door", one hell of an awesome battle in the penultimate episode, and great closure in the last episode.

Don't use “thought” verbs too much: thinks, understands, loves, hates, and a hundred others. Instead of characters knowing, present the details that allow the reader to know them. Instead of a character wanting something, describe the thing so that the reader wants it. Only specific sensory detail: smell, taste, and sound.

To be quite honest, I don't consider Joffrey as evil as they all portray him to be (at least in the series). He's mentally challenged, as was seen in a number of episodes, so it's highly debatable whether or not he would truly be the same person if he wasn't ill.
Ramsay, on the other hand, is cunning, extremely intelligent and evil for the fun of it, not because he's sick. He knows exactly what he's doing at all times and does it regardless. I might hate him as a personality, but as a character I LOVED seeing him in an episode, as I always knew there wouldn't be a dull moment with him.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT

like you could hint at at least what season or book you're spoiling, even though I'm not going to look at those anyway yet since I already spoiled at least three major things from the last episode for myself on accident and I'm not taking any fucking chances right now

Jack Gleeson and Iwan Rheon.
BEST FUCKING ACTORS. still shaken up about that season finale though. It didn't leave me with much a cliffhanger but more so a mix of emotions. I'm just trying to keep my head clear about King's Landing.

Meh, GoT failed to impress me in the first 3 eps and the only thing that would make people stay are the cliché cliffhanger endings each episode.
I ain't falling for that trick.


The original and not that king of thieves Aurelianus/Gilgamesh.

the first season wasn't too bad but the majority of 2-4 was quite a bore, which is why I haven't really seen them besides the big important events
5 was alright, and 6 as far as I have seen has been fantastic

That's because the first season wasn't that good, give it another try and watch more.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT

I'll be completely honest and say that the most boring arc overall in the entire season was hands down the High Sparrow arc.
I fucking hated that guy more than ANY other character in the series. Yes, I have more sympathy for Ramsay and the imbecile Joffrey than I have for him. The shit he almost got away with was so frustrating, abusing that poor boy to gain power and control over King's Landing.
Speaking of abusing the boy, I kinda disliked Tommen as well. Joffrey was reckless but decisive, while Tommen is downright spineless and I would lie if I said that I didn't giggle under my breath when he threw himself off the window.

You spelled Dorne wrong.

The pacing in the books is much faster if you don't like TV. If you are that desperate you can also just read the plot synopsis of the first and second book, and just jump to the third book(A Storm of Swords), which is the best book.

Or you can read the IMDB episode ratings for each episode and watch the episodes with a rating above 9.4. Fill in the rest of the plot by reading the episode synopsis in Wikipedia because that's what I do:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0944947/eprate

Which are:
S01: E09, E10
S02: E09, E10
S03: E04, E09
S04: E02, E06, E08, E09, E10
S05: E08, E09
S06: E02, E05, E09, E10

I don't think Dorne can even be considered a plot in the TV shows, and shut your liar mouth AGoT was the best one and it only got more boring from there
