SPOILERS AGAIN

Wow, Stannis and his army got fucking destroyed. But I was really hoping he'd live long enough to fully realize that he burned his daughter alive for NOTHING. But I am glad that Ramsey was not the one to kill him. Fucking Ramsey. Theon and Sansa, meh. Hope they survive.

The Dorne storyline was completely pointless and I hated it. Though that was a nice (brief) moment between Jaime and his dneice (whose name I don't recall).

Still don't care about Dany all that much but can't wait to see what Tyrion and Varys get up to. Don't really care about Greyworm and Missandei do. They bore me. Though, the dragon CGI looks great as long as people are not interacting with it.

Arya, dayum! She stabbed the fuck out of that dude. No idea what is going on with the blind thing.

JON SNOW!!! Why? I don't understand what the Night's watch has to gain from killing him? DO THEY NOT UNDERSTAND UNDEAD ARMY HEADING THEIR WAY? Bah, why are there not video cameras in Westeros? Though, I do think Melisandre is going to do something to bring him back. I guess the show has completely caught up with the books now, so we must all wait.

reminder that fire god magic is going to turn out to be just as evil as ice god magic, reminder that it's going to be the whole twist of the series and it's actually some third magical force (aligned with the old gods) that's going to save everything

hope this friendly reminder helped

also I hope Jon Snow doesn't stay dead, welp, smell ya later

Re: SPOILERS

After the past two episodes, my interest in the show is completely dead tbh

fuck you for posting spoilers, this isn't what i want to see when i come here you piece of shit

MORE MAJOR SPOILERS FOR JERN SNERR

[herpymcderp]

Yeah, Jon isn't going to stay dead guys. In the books there are a thousand thousand mentions of fire magic bringing people back from the dead (even two main characters!) so Jon is just going to be revived by Melisandre.

Most likely. We all know that GRRM would never kill off his precious Snowflake.

The finale was absolutely terrible. And I was actually enjoying this season, even with all of its flaws.

The lack of a big battle between Stannis and the Boltons was a missed opportunity and Melisandre just abandoned him so easily.

Sansa didn't get to do anything and barely even appeared. I was hoping for her to do more to escape and maybe team up with Brienne.

The Dorne plot was just pointless.

I'be been enjoying Dany's plots this whole season though, so I'm interested in what happens next season with her. I'm also interested in seeing what goes on with Jorah and Darrio, Tyrion, Varys, Grey Worm and Missandei.

Jon isn't dead. He's coming back. And hopefully next season, we will get more Night's King action. The last twenty minutes of Hardhome were the best of this season imo. And I want to know what the fuck that guy is up to.

Re: GAME OF THRONES

[othellia]

Pretty much all this. We spent an entire season with Stannis and Davos in the snow and building up to a battle (plus the lead ups from last season), and then nope. One minute and everyone's dead. Like, I understand the showrunners REALLY wanted to destroy Stannis the Mannis, but that was excessive character assassination even for them.

I guess the one thing it did was give Sansa enough open room to escape? But even then she didn't take charge of anything. Theon saved her, first by killing Miranda, and then essentially pulling a Doctor by grabbing her hand and yelling "run!"

So disappointed by Dorne. Soooo disappointed.

What happened to "we don't hurt little girls in Dorne?" What happened to the Ellaria who understood how the deadly game of revenge worked and how no amount of violence would bring Oberyn back? What happened to basic common sense of, I don't know, NOT PUTTING YOUR CROWN PRINCE ON A SHIP WITH THE ENEMY AND THEN KILLING THEIR DAUGHTER?

Like you, I did enjoy the Dany plots. Fast forwarding that whole thing and getting Tyrion to Mereen midseason was by far the best change they made.

So what happened that got both my facebook and tumblr dash so angry? the dumb downed minimal familiarity summary?

Jon Snow, he dead

(one of the major characterfs, who everyone thought was going to be one of the leading good guy type things)

Re: GAME OF THRONES

[(Anonymous)]

I'm tin hatting the shit out of Jon's 'death'.

GRRM was amused that people thought he was 100% dead at the time of the book's release and even said “Oh, you think he’s dead, do you?”.

Melisandre shows up a few hours before his death and her religious abilities work through the blood of kings. We saw this happen during a fight with the Brotherhood Without Banners.

Jon was constantly fighting against the need to do right (stay at the Night's Watch) and the want to fight (leave for the North). Jon's 'death' will free him from the Night's Watch to leave for the North.

This episode was bullcrap and I'm very annoyed about it.

What's your favorite non-canon pairing?
What's your favorite theme/storyline/scene/dialogue (choose whichever you want or add your own)?

Bonus: Come up with a head-canon for a character/race/nationality (choose as applicable).

Re: Tolkien

1) Aragorn, because nobility
2) Eowyn/Faramir
3) I have none that I really care about
4) The weight of suffering / experience / mortality / pain / evil

Re: Tolkien

[(Anonymous)]

I like Aragorn's nobility too. Eowyn/Faramir is a wonderful pairing. What appeals to you about them?

Re: Tolkien

[(Anonymous)]

Fave Character - Aragorn, aka Strider (at least in the books). I liked his mysteriousness and also his doomed-to-heartbreak love for an elf. Good angst gets me every time.

Canon Pairing - Aragorn/Arwen (see above)

Fave non-canon pairing - none. I'm not really into Tolkein for the romance, though obvs I like Aragorn/Arwen.

Fave quote - I just adore the opening paragraph of The Hobbit. It's so warm and cozy and perfect: In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole and that means comfort.

Re: Tolkien

[asecretchord]

Boromir, because without his fall from grace the entire Fellowship would have blundered to the Black Gates and been slaughtered.
Legolas/Gimli
Aragorn/Boromir (I have a thing for impossible ships).
Favourite chapter, bar none, is "The Council of Elrond." I can read just that over and over and over again.

Re: Tolkien

[(Anonymous)]

Tom Bombadil, maybe, because he's just sort of weird and there and nothing to do with the big myth arc. (Honorable mentions to Ghân-buri-Ghân, Treebeard, and Beorn for similar reasons.)
Tom/Goldberry
What is this "noncanon"? ...Merry/Eowyn?
The Púkel-men story in Unfinished Tales.

Re: Tolkien

[(Anonymous)]

Favourite Character: I always have trouble choosing, but in the end it's probably Pippin. Child!me glomed onto him so hard, for his bravery and mischief and irrepressible nature, and how he grows more serious over the course of things but never loses his basic optimism.

Runners up would be Beregond (choosing to commit treason to save Faramir's life), Éowyn (courage and determination), Thranduil (feyness and sheer stubbornness), Elrond (who does more work than anyone to keep Middle Earth afloat, and so rarely gets listened to) and Treebeard (I just love the idea of Ents, and how slow they are, and how deadly when pushed)

Favourite Canon Pairing: Éowyn/Faramir. I just love that little bit of brightness in both their lives after all the absolute shit they'd just gone through

Favourite Non-Canon Pairing: Gimli/Legolas. I just really adore their developing friendship, and the fact that they sail into the West together, and just how bizarre and perfect they are for where they come from

Favourite Theme: Coming home changed from war, especially with the hobbits. How both 'The Hobbit' and 'Lord of the Rings' show how changed these characters become, and how difficult (Bilbo) and sometimes impossible (Frodo) it can be to fit back in afterwards, but also how some people slot back in almost perfectly (Sam), and how some people fit back in but also keep contact with the wider world (Merry and Pippin). I just like the development across the stories, and then the return to the Shire to show the aftermath.

Favourite Storyline: Merry & Pippin's storyline in Two Towers. It's always my first choice for rereading, and the part of the books that stuck hardest in my head as a kid.

Favourite Dialogue/Quote: "There's some good in this world, Mr Frodo, and it's worth fighting for." ---Samwise Gamgee

Re: Tolkien

Elrond. I like that he's half-elven, that he's compassionate despite everything that's happened to him, he's a good father (and probably a good husband/leader/etc.), he's a healer and also a warrior if needed. Elrond is all around the best character ever to me.

Luthien/Beren. I love that Luthien is so active in getting what she wants. I like that Beren listens to her. I like their two cultures, and their whole epic love.

Aragorn/Faramir. I love hurt/comfort and I like that Aragorn saved Faramir. I like that Aragorn is like everything scholar!Faramir has dreamed of. Faramir is my second favorite character. I love the loyalty and wisdom in him and surrounding his character (including Beregond saving him). I love the idea of the Stewards faithfully waiting so long and then their king finally returns.

The Houses of Healing - see above. I love seeing that Aragorn is known to be king not by his warrior ability but because of his healing. And that he saves Faramir and Eowyn, and how he teases Merry. And we get to see Eomer and Eowyn interact.

Head-canon: My headcanon is that Elrond has a strong affinity for water, stemming from Ulmo's blessing upon Tuor and his line. He lives by the sea or by waterfalls - anywhere there is a lot of water, which will obey his command. Also, he has a more Sindarin outlook, despite being raised by Feanorians. He forgave them but he didn't forget what they did either.

I also headcanon that Gil-galad is far more Teleri than most people know because his mom was Teleri and he was raised by Cirdan. They both had a hand in shaping his worldview. I think this is part of the reason his reign lasted so long.

Re: Tolkien

[philstar22]

1. Back to having Celebrimbor as my favorite character. What can I say, he's such an interesting and tragic figure.

2. Beren/Luthien

3. Melkor/Sauron or Celebrimbor/Sauron with Maedhros/Fingon a close third.

4. The whole storyline with Celebrimbor and Annatar. I like tragic. Also Beren and Luthien and Finrod. Turin is pretty interesting too. Also the fall of Gondolin. I like lots of things.

Bonus: I have very clear headcanons of what certain characters look like. Sauron pre-Numenor was blonde and kind of muscular from working in the forge. Celebrimbor had the dark hair of his father and grandfather, also muscular for an elf, and he was several inches taller than Annatar. Finrod was also blonde.

I think Celebrimbor is probably the character I have the most headcanon for. I see him as both wanting to escape his family legacy and yet still part of him wants to live up to the greatness of his grandfather. I think Annatar played into desires of his that were genuinely good. He wanted to protect his people. But he also wanted to achieve greatness. And someone on Tumblr suggested that maybe he was actually suspicious of Annatar but pushed it aside because he thought that those suspicions were the Feanorian side of him and not a good thing. And I really like that idea.
