Is the "red god" same as the "lord of light"? "lord of light" obviously was working against the Night King.
Is "many face god" the one giving the face changing magic to faceless men (e.g. Arya)?

Stumbled upon this excellent youtube video that analyzes Daenerys' character and explains why she wiped out King's Landing.
Oh I know, I just meant to have it be a bit more of a dramatic build up to Dany's breakdown for the most part. But due to the lack of episodes, it didn't have that chance, any foreshadowing aside. It doesn't seem short, an 1h, 20m per episode isn't enough to tell the stories well enough.
I’m fine with that. I don’t want to watch an episode with Jon just riding a horse and camping.
A totally serious recapping of Game of Thrones by The Late Show's Jon Batiste:
I don't think it's useful for changing what is being petitioned, but... it does work as a conveyance of audience reaction, albeit a minority.Meh. Online petitions are as useful as a feather knocking over an elephant. It's kind of sad how adamant some of these people are about hating this season. It's a television show. Get over it. There are far worse things going on in this world and in this country right now than Game of Thrones not ending the way you want.
I thought that's what twitter was for.
Yes, for very short term. Twitter focus and narratives change rapidly.
Jack Black... singing GoT theme.
Only 4 of the 6 are longer than 60 minutes.
Anyone else going to rewatch the first episode of the show prior to the series finale? That practice has become a regular ritual for me, to see how far a show and its characters have come.
I binged through the entire series before this season started, so I was ready. This last season is both disappointing and wonderfully exciting at the same time, so I'm expecting to be both thrilled and doing a lot of face-palming Sunday evening. LOL
Funny, I have the opposite reaction. I don't know what I expected, but no definitive ending is possible any longer IMO.
I feel like that every time one of my favorite shows end.
I think now is a good time to pause and say: MAN - what a ride.
Me and my partner binge watched the first three seasons. We didn't intend to but once we got started... it was impossible to stop the train. There were some late nights. We got to 2:45am once when she had an early start but she insisted on "just one more". Might have been post-Red Wedding.
I was looking for something new to watch and kept seeing this image of Sean Bean sitting on a throne so thought "what the hell". It was a blessing my partner and I went into it knowing *nothing* about the three seasons we were about to embark on. When Ned was up on the chop block I just assumed someone was going to intervene and save his skin; after all, he was one of the top billed characters. When Ilyn Payne's sword fell and it dawned on both of us he was dead, the show abruptly changed. I seriously couldn't believe and thought "now what?!" - if only I'd known.
As aforementioned, we got to The Red Wedding in the early hours of the morning. Once again, assumptions were made that, naturally, Rob and The Starks would win. That was ... how best to put it... completely fucked up.
IIRC we had about a 6 month wait for season 4 after our whirlwind introduction to the world of Game of Thrones. It was a hell of an adjustment enduring the wait for each episode week to week after our binge. Anyway, I would like to indulge and share a few of my favorite moments as they spring to mind:
Pretty much every scene with Tywin. Charles Dance was phenomenal in that role. His time at Harrenhal with Arya was especially gratifying. Out of all his scenes, the one I recall as most enjoyable was at the end of season 3. Joffrey was acting like a prized twat when Tywin pronounced matter of factly "Any man who must say I am the king is no true king". Joffrey slammed him down declaring his not-father as the true hero of the rebellion. The look from Tywin and the rest of the cast was priceless. Everyone kowtowed to that little shit but when he had a go at Tywin, you could hear a pin drop. I think even Joffrey realised he'd gone too far taking on his grandfather.
Other moments... Mountain vs. The Viper. Damnation, I really thought Oberyn had won. Cersei blowing up the sept and sipping her wine with smug satisfaction -- I found that pretty damn satisfying. Dany torching the ship in Slaver's Bay. Jamie proclaiming they can hold back the Dothraki, followed by Drogon's roar. Diana Rigg's sass (it was me). Yeah, I could keep going couldn't I?
So, here's to ya, GoT. Regardless of how you go out, you've been a topic of conversation if nothing else the past few weeks. Looking forward to Bran becoming The Night King and democracy spreading throughout Westeros tomorrow.

I rewatched it today. Holds up great, if they had to redo it they wouldn't need to change a thing. I still don't know how the Night Watch deserter got past the wall. There must be holes in the wall that only the crows know about. The White Walkers seem to wearing some dark uniform, I don't think they had nailed down their look yet.
Be aware, everyone. The finale has leaked online. Spoilers are sure to follow.
I'll be staying away from those kinds of places. I want to be surprised. Whether or not I like my surprise will be determined then. LOL
