- jefferson hall playing 3 different characters in the asoiaf universe is so amusing to me
- oh my god, criston cole can have the most self-reflective and thought-provoking monologue of the entire season and people will still turn it into “angry incel bitter about rhaenyra”
- harry collett saying the hunger games is the only book he’s ever read in his life and the entire cast turning to him and saying “you’re saying that out loud on the internet?!”
- someone needs to do a study on why criston is hated more than the literal sadists and rapists in this franchise
- on the contrary, asoiaf’s message is “life is miserable, everyone dies, but it is important and worth it to hold onto honor, light and decency despite it.”
- bro couldn’t even fight a doorHot Take: if Harwin had lived, the Blacks would’ve won TDOD utterly & completely
GIF - “bad writing” has somehow become synonymous with “i wasn’t paying attention and now i’m mad i was rooting for a shit person all along,” because no way are you all genuinely surprised that wife killer and war criminal daemon is awful to his wife, the niece he groomed as a child 🤡
- insisting grrm is a sadistic nihilist when his work depicts the most romantic, most hopeful idea that one must be good not in the hope of a reward or glory, but for the sake of it tsk
- i have a lot of empathy for grrm because i cannot imagine living with this amount of pressure, the expectations of millions of people, not being able to go back and tweak things in a series this sprawling, and knowing your work’s major secrets were butchered in adaptation
- u could never make me dislike grrm, grandpa wrote a scathing blog post with a point by point take down referencing the butterfly effect and then put a picture of a butterfly in it for visual effect
- alys saying that those who do not strive for the crown are perhaps most fit to wear it has the potential to be really interesting considering the person who wanted it least was… aegon 🧍🏽♀️
- imagine you wrote a story and you left a good chunk of it up to interpretation but also a good chunk that was pretty definitive, and someone adapted that story and changed definitive things and then insisted “my version is the Truth actually” 😭 grrm wasn’t mean enough!
- aemond praying before dinner, aemond refusing to visit brothels, aemond lecturing his brother on drinking too much, he’s so muslim-coded
