So we have this giant guy in our army who is the size and strength of a dozen men

>so we have this giant guy in our army who is the size and strength of a dozen men
wow, that sounds like an incredible asset! what equipment have you given him to maximize his potential on the battlefield? a giant pole arm or sword for him to thrust into the enemies, paired with a giant shield? or maybe you could give him a giant sling for him to hurl large rocks like missiles?
>nah hes just gonna run into the heavily armored enemies and start punching them
perfect!

>it's an autist overanalyzes escapist entertainment episode

haha so true haha XD

>If you find odd that people don't arm themselves for war during war you're nitpicky and overnalyzing the situation
Yep, turn your brain off, bro. Just like Immortal Arya, perfectly reasonable.

>it's a showfag defends his 'kino' episode

Your taste and judgement are shit.

yep. i believe they were swinging tree trunks around in one previous battle.

The correct answer is two shields to cover him from arrows and plough up the ranks with.

But yeah, he had nothing, instead.

He can't even have been wearing that much fur, because the arrows penetrated really deep.

How come the giant took so long to get to the battle?

He arrived with the rest of the army, when he should have been way ahead with his extra long stride.

So why do you guys watch this show after its been confirmed to be one you're not supposed to think too hard about for a while now

the giant could have ended the entire battle if they had just given him the bow from last season

that or just a bunch of rocks to throw.

In the books the giant culture prohibits the use of weapons for combat. I think it was because they see it as cowardly.

>i must defend my shit show on the internet!
wondering why the plan for the giant was to throw punches isn't autism. It's common fucking sense. He's on a battlefield not brawling outside a bar at two in the morning

how can such a dumb show spawn thousands upon thousands of single question retard threads?

Yeah... What happened to that??

Dawg, the Giants are known to have missile launching bows, and there were any number of trees around them

This is why I stopped watching the show two seasons ago. I dont see why you guys do this to yourselves

Newfag here. What the hell does kino mean? See that word getting thrown around a lot.

Bullshit, they use maces and spears

Because its getting dumber

>Newfag here
Leave

It's not like a tree is hard to find, yet it would make a big difference.

The only correct answer.

he's a big guy.

There doesn't seem to be a shortage of steel. Thanks Op

>logic is for nerds

Sauron was a beast.

Dat edge.

>... but the power of The Ring could not be undone.

it basically means movie theatre or cinema in a couple of languages
It's just a dumb buzzword

I know fuck all about the lore, that said, I was hoping that his death would lead to other gaints joining the cause or some such nonsense, culminating in some gigantic battle with dragons, Giants, and Undead somewhere, somehow.

What edge? He's right. Anyone proudly proclaiming newfag status show be told fuck off
Fuck off

he coulda taken the pile of dead bodies and thrown them at Boltons men. he didnt even need a weapon he just wasnt being used to his advantages which makes Snow a shitty strategist and leader

Why didn't Ramsay deploy the twenty goodmen?

he made a pact with jon snow, if jon didn't give the giant proper equipment then he will not deploy his good men.
jesus christ guys this was obvious

>1-3 seasons of GoT and LotR movies
>excellent

>4-6 seasons of GoT and Hobbit movies
>trash

if i'm not mistaken he is the last giant

There is no reason you couldn't have posted this in the general.

As a bookfag who long ago read the books before the show and knew about all the looming butchery, this is probably the first time a death has stuck with me. And it just boggles my mind that Wun Wun wasn't armed to the teeth. They could have gotten crazy with it

>tons of extra furs and hides piled on him
>a huge shirt stitched together from chainmail and buckler shields
>a long log with shitty old swords hammered through it
>a huge sling and a pile of boulders or stones
>a wrecking ball
>tons of huge javelins cut from trees
>two barn doors

He should have been easily able to blast through the Bolton shields. It's like this whole show is written by gay jews and women who don't really know anything.

Kino is the word the cinema in German. Like most of the memes on this site its fucking stupid.
Just go along with it user.

why only one giant?
makes no sense

...

thanks famm, missed that.

I thought so.

>It's like this whole show is written by gay jews and women who don't really know anything.
pure coincidence

I was bothered more by the fact that Ramsey decided to shoot a dying giant instead of killing Jon or Tormond.

This was pretty much my reaction. They were debating about how they could possibly win the war as they were outnumbered in every way, but they never once discuss the fact that they have a fucking giant. Armour that fucker up, use him as a battering ram to shatter the enemy's formation and morale. Almost everybody believed them to be myths, so to see one for real would have shooken up the Bolton troops. It is not autism to point out that they wasted their most important asset and only area where they had an advantage.

Hi this is George RR Martin connecting from my friend's laptop, on holiday in Bodrum Turkey.

Giants shun weapons because they view themselves as the oldest race, one with nature. They abhor using tools, accepting their existence perfect as it.

Mance Rayder had convinced giants that they were more useful as humanoid tool using warriors, but after he died/was defeated, that argument went down the drain.

Wun Wun is the last giant in the world, and he probably takes these tenets to prideful extremes.

You're welcome, enjoy my new book Winds of Winter, to be released this year.

Would he have survived the injuries had he not had an arrow into his head?

He's supposed to have a club fashioned from a fucking tree, like he did in the books.

One sweep of it would've rekt that pseudo-300 shieldwall

wun wun uses his club after mance is "burned" in the books though, so nice try autismo fatman impersonator

I don't think they would have had the ability to make armor for the guy, but at least get him a fucking tree trunk or something...

...

...

I'd reckon even without a club he'd be able to break that formation in a second flat.

Whole use of Wun Wun in this episode was weak as fuck tbqh.

read it in his voice

"I looked for you on the flight plan." said Bane.

“We were not there,” Ser Maimen answered.

“Woe to the masketta man if we had been,” said Ser Smee.

"I came down to crash the plane," Bane told them.

"Our planes do not crash so easily," said Ser Bill.

“Ser Juan Ovyu is fled to Gotham, with Dr. Pavleer. I thought you might have flown with him.”

“Ser Juan is a good man and true,” said Ser Smee.

“But not of the CIA,” Ser Maimen pointed out. “The CIA does not flee.”

“Then or now,” said Ser Bill. He donned his belt.

“We swore a vow,” explained old Ser Maimen.

Bane’s wraiths moved up beside him, with shadow guns in hand. They were seven against three.

“And now it begins,” said Ser Bill Wilson, the Agent of the Morning. He unsheathed Loyalty and held it with both hands. The pistol was pale as milkglass, alive with light.

“No,” Bane said with sadness in his voice. “Now for you.”

You'd think he would have just kicked a few of those shield fucks out of his way and start stomping dudes/thrashing and just throwing guys all over the place.

I was pretty upset with the use of Wun Wun. A fucking travesty. It could have been such a ridiculous scene. Breaking through the shield wall with ease and a cut to Ramsay looking bewildered/on the verge of shitting his pants.

Just stich everything you have and attach it to him. He could comfortably wear several inches of fur and leather.

Where did his giant bow go?

>Lets not analyze things on a film board

i just threw up in my mouth, stop

That was fucking retarded. Jon killed him.

Jon has so much blood on his hands

Why do you lie

This.
Just have the fucking giant ruin the enemy from a distance.

>dude like just turn off your brain bro, thinking is a sign of autism

Fuck are you on holiday? Finish the books

D&D killed him
even if jon didn't give him a second thought he should have taken five minutes to pick up a tree

Fucking LOVE the turn off your brain bro meme

Show has become capeshit af - Bolton shields was just too fucking much for me

BUT credit where credit is due and the scene where Jon walks around after the impact was GOAT medieval warfare

>if they had just given him the bow from last season
Wun Wun never had a bow

>a giant pole arm or sword
>paired with a giant shield
>a giant sling

I'd like to see you build such things, you dumb, useless prick of a NEET.

Does the wildling army look sophisticated to you? What a dumb fuck. Lmaoing at your failure at life.

>giant pole arm
literally just a tree
>giant shield
literally just a fucking door
>giant sling
literally just a bunch of ropes

Bit harsh desu senpai

too heavily invested

>A shield and a sword is built the exact same way regardless of its size

>sophisticated dumb question mark

>Muh NEET

MUH RETARD

Did Jon's archers ever get to fire a single shot? That was kinda a waste...

>Come on lads
>2 seconds later strangulated in circle of death

How awkward

Am I having a stroke?

He fought with a tree against the whitewalkers and giant bow attacking the Crows.
Stop being so defensive what the fuck is wrong with you

I feel ya ... I was like... why does he have no weapon? Why is Arya the only character that survives getting stabed in the guts?

Honestly one giant is nothing. If we're going to start nitpicking then if there was a one giant on battlefield he would have been focused by all arrows

Would've been plenty to get them out of the circle of pointy death, but all he did was flail his arms around. If he had a tree or something, he'd have ruined their tactics.

>giant bow attacking the Crows
That was a different giant, but you're right that they had bows.

Bows which could reach the top of the wall and carry the person they hit through the roof they were under and keep going.

Imagine if they just told Wunwun to just start shooting arrows as fast as he could into the Bolton lines before the cavalry charge even started.

if you give him a shield and proper armor those arrows are basically wasted

a ballista would do him in quickly if it were a wood shield

He knew he was fucked. Seemed like a last effort to leave a mark, causing the Giants to finally go extinct.

He sent them on a mission behind the Wall, to find the heart of Winter and stop the Others once and for all.

He was going to join them after the battle.

>Northerns have never seen giants
>they actually think they are just a myth or at best extinct

>suddenly they see a giant charging at them
>don't even flinch or react to this at all

so was he the last one? are giants extinct now?

it rhymes

Mance said Mag was one of the last, it's implied that wun wun is the last of them.

There has not been a female writer on staff for several seasons now.

in the sundering total war mod there are giants that can use ballistas as bows and when deployed on top of the walls they can tear apart 30 men with one shot

those things were freaking invincible on top of the walls

There's still a giant's bow somewhere near castle black

>If we're going to start nitpicking then if there was a one giant on battlefield he would have been focused by all arrows

If we were nitpicking he could have used the side of a house as a shield and a tree as a club and wasted the entire formation they used.

so its gay jews then, right, thanks for clearing that up

having a flayed man as your emblem cant be good for moral

i would probably just defect desu

Do you guys think Robb would have gone galloping in to try and save Rickon and throw away his entire battle plan?

>Wun Wun armed with two barn doors blowing through the Bolton lines like they aren't even there
>Wun Wun picking off Boltons with his hueg bow
>Wun Wun hits Lord Karstark with one of his javelin arrows, nailing him and his horse to the ground near Ramsay

sounds like a lot of effort desu

its easier to just half ass some cgi

>the giant can only be armed and armored by full plate with a masterfully crafted 30ft long sword

Yeah or he can just use some improvised shit like we've already seen them do you fucking autist.

Why do you think anyone in the army was able to make Wun Wun do anything? All they can do is hope he shows up and helps how he wants to.

>Wun Wun survives and later in the series does a 360 oneshot no scope headshot of Dany's dragon

What could have been
