Why did GoT kill off one of their most pivotal characters? The man who started it all gets thrown away like a cum soaked sock?
This man could out think and manipulate even the smartest men and women in Westeros at every turn. But you want your audience to believe he slipped up and got shown up by some children?
Fuck you, GoT showrunners. Stop treating your viewers like children.
Jason Hughes
>This man could out think and manipulate even the smartest men and women in Westeros at every turn.
Apparently not, seeing as he's dead.
Logan Sullivan
Because there's no room for politics in Nu-Thrones. It's a children's fairy tale about cartoon dragons vs ice zombies now, anything that requires thinking is boring to the target audience.
Ian Parker
His death was bullshit and that NEVER would have happened.
Evan Garcia
Haha
Xavier Gray
Cause they realised they didn't have a plan for him. It was all just pretending.
Jeremiah Price
Because in real life literally everybody dies.
Cameron Martinez
his purpose was build up via storyline
now the build up has reached its limit there's no need for him
it's all about big battles, massive CGI effects, and mindless entertainment now as opposed to storytelling, and eventually the climax
Dylan Rogers
because GoT is feminist propaganda
Hunter Evans
Yes. Let's retarded Snow and Queen B marry and rejoice, even though it feels forced as fuck and oh hey...remember when he came back from the dead? Was like...nothing...happened?
Easton Morales
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Julian Ortiz
>I’ve read the books
Josiah Allen
>there's no need for him Fuck that. Littlerfinger would want the Iron Throne NOT MATTER WHAT.
Ryder Morales
He probably refused to get littlefingered by a producer.
Hudson Murphy
I'd believe it if the showrunners didn't love female torture porn.
Isaiah Baker
He’s already proven untrustworthy. I don’t see how he didn’t get killed earlier
Justin Adams
wut? Sansa got raped once causing huge backlash and now every single female character is given magic bullshit powers to help them kill all the ebil men
Grayson Peterson
More character assassination. Littlefinger WANTS people to trust him.
He wouldn't act like a fucking creeper around anyone he planned to influence.
Parker Stewart
I haven't and I somewhat agree
Robert Murphy
Once? Didn’t Joffrey abuse the puss too?
Kevin Sullivan
>Why did GoT kill off Stopped there, user. GoT kills off almost everyone. It's for either shock value or viewer satisfaction. Pick one. Or both!
Elijah Myers
That was early season though, back when the show actually had writing. Once they got past the books the show changed totally
Luis Howard
>Joffrey shoots bolts into prostitutes >Dany is raped by Khal >Shireen is burned alive >Ramsay rape
ect ect
Justin Garcia
...
Lucas Long
Yeah but he let Sansa in on his shit. She already knows not to trust him
Jason Sanders
And this somehow foils all of his plans?
Caleb Hernandez
even talented strategists can get greedy and overplay their hand
RIP annoying character
Julian Jenkins
I gotta be honest, back when it was based on the books somewhat, there was just pointless cliffhanger after cliffhanger. At least now there’s some resolution.
Leo Kelly
Because when you plan to take control of a country no one accounts for a 3 eyed raven ruining your plan... Plus he told Sansa too much.
Wyatt Lopez
At this stage the seasons are literally fan fiction. Just treat it as such, and wait for GRRM to squeeze out the next book to see what happens in the real story.
Anthony Price
But the resolutions are all fucking terrible
Nicholas Morris
When his plan is to play dumbass Sansa, yeah.
Gavin Sanders
I mean, the show has a running theme of hubris being severely punished. He thought he had Sansa wrapped around his finger, and he died because of it. Not to mention that the death of a pivotal character like Littlefinger was probably straight from GRRM himself. Can't imagine he'd let them make that call on what will eventually be the canon ending to the books as well.
Jace Reed
because he's a complex character and game of thrones is a very basic good vs. evil story now
Gabriel King
Bran has basically become super spy. When he sets his mind to it, he could see everything Baelish did. Bran is basically Baelish's cryptonite.
Luis Barnes
Yes just a bunch of normal children led to his demise...not a guy that can go into someones past and see everything he ever did and report it to his sisters lol
Tyler Cox
Also there are 6 episodes left. Not much else for him to do.
John Wood
At least it’s something. Pointless cliffhangers are just ploys to keep you invested
Juan Carter
DABID
Robert Ward
I liked how Littlefinger was using the corruption of King's Landing to his advantage. I really don't see him as a bad guy. He's just a very influential aristocrat who's learned how to play the game his way. Instead of with swords and shields.
Hudson James
Congratulations on making the one non porn thread here that is interesting.
Ryder Allen
politics is BOOOOORING tho fighting with swrods and shields and DRAGONS is HELLA FR*CKIN EPIC!!!
Michael Edwards
I estimate the chance that GRRM will actually finish the books at less than 50%. It will be finished by some hack hired by his executors.
Eli Price
>Not a bad guy >Gets around 50 people killed with his actions. Hmm
Benjamin Moore
Exactly, all men are rapist scum. Thats the narrative.
Joshua Reyes
Most of the '''Good''' guys have killed more people than that
Austin Johnson
He won’t finish and will die of being an old fat ass before he even puts out the next book. Besides, his forte is making shows not writing
Xavier Murphy
...
Gabriel Bailey
>less than 50% Yeah, I'd put it at 5%. He's an old fat fuck that likes to eat. And write about fucking capons endlessly. Then write fucking cook books and bullshit background material that no one wants. Rather than focus and finish the books.
Regardless, he let the show surpass the books. So no one is likely going to read them anyway.
Ryan Gonzalez
because the moral characters are making a comeback, and when it comes to morality, littlefinger was a cum-soaked sock already
John Mitchell
book euron is how a guy who studies the blade sees himself, show euron is how the rest of the world sees him
Samuel Ward
God they fucked Euron up so bad it pisses me off. It's like they took the least interesting parts of Euron and Victarion, added a pinch of Jack Sparrow and made them into the shittiest character imaginable. And he STILL manages to be the best character on Nu-Thrones. It's pretty amazing actually
Oliver Roberts
KEK
Colton Rodriguez
>moral characters are making a comeback So why the fuck is Dany still alive?
Samuel Diaz
i like show euron, book euron is basically an evil anime version of jack sparrow, show euron is an annoying dick, bit more realistic
Xavier Johnson
Victarion is gonna get fucked over sooner of later.
James Roberts
Being interesting is more important than being realistic. Especially in a fantasy world. Book Euron has motivations and a character. Show Euron is just a plot device to give a fleet to Cersei and Dany
Robert Hill
I'M A STRONG INDEPENDENT WOMEN WHO CRUCIFIES MEN FUCK THE PATRIARCHY
Brandon Long
motivations: being evil and mysterious, also want more power character: being evil and mysterious
Euron is easily GRRM's worst character
Joseph Cruz
Except it did happen, and it was because Bran saw him betray Ned. Considering the Bran shit has been going on for a few seasons, its not hard to imagine that Baelish would get caught by Bran the time wizard and tell everyone else
Chase Green
Why did GoT shit all over the books, ignore that the series wasn't finished, make up their own story, sell sansa to ramsey for LITERALLY no reason but rape fetish, let R.R. Martin get a boner about being T.V. famous instead of holding a gun o his head an forcing him to finish the goddamn series.
We could ask silly questions all day user, the truth is none of it mater because television and Hollywood will inevitably ruin everything we as readers love. Showtime hired the writer of transformers and catwoman to make The Name of the Wind into a series, and I might just actually kill myself .
Benjamin Cook
fam have you read The Forsaken? The guy wants to turn himself into a fucking God. As far as villain motivations go that's pretty metal.
I'd take that over a character defined exclusively by dick jokes any day
Gabriel Lewis
they're both fucking terrible but at least the show version is realistically terrible
Camden Johnson
Dabid get off Sup Forums and write the Season 8 script
Jack Clark
Girl power dawg.
And fuck white men, right? It's all the leftys could ask for.
Chase Nelson
DABID! DABID! WHT IF DRAGON HAS WHEEWLS?
Juan James
...
Joshua Reyes
that's easily my favorite greentext
Dylan Carter
Everyone knows you don't throw away cum socks you wait until the sprout cumshrooms then place a second cum sock near by so that it can catch the cumshroom spores and grow it's own cumshrooms eventually if you repeat this enough you'll start a cumshroom farm so you can make soup with them
Ian Martinez
Honestly, no ones forcing you to watch the show. If you don't like it, just read the book. Theres literally no point in whining.
Hudson Scott
Stan would rather eat grass than Sharon dabid.
Kayden Perez
In that season it was showing the limits of the "smart men" (Tyrion fucking up the rock attack, spider being threatened and Baelish losing his grip). Baelish simply played too many games, overreached and lost
Gabriel Rodriguez
do they litterally burn the books? they aren't ruining anything the books still exist you dumbass, it's not hollywood's fault that you can't separate an adaptation and it's source material
Oliver Lewis
holy fuck my sides
Austin Nelson
no but it is Hollywood's fault that they make an adaptation then aim it at the opposite of the book's target audience leading to a total mess of a show
Nathaniel James
ez dont watch the show haha
Oliver Smith
You are both fucking retarded and the reason that hollywood feels like it can get away with shit like this. It's the principal of the thing, they are taking someone's art and literally raping it to death. What makes it worse is Martin sitting in the corner stroking off to the molestation of his brain child. There is no integrity left. No honor. No art. Only cash grabbing pandering clickbait. Television is fucking dead. Wake the fuck up.
Carter Howard
rape implies non consent, it's more high level prostitution
Caleb Carter
What is Brann and his seeing-it-all vision you fucking tard
Cameron Bell
>Night King rolls up into Westeros >brings Tywin, Stannis, Oberyn, and Littlefinger back as zombies to add to his crew >each one gets to find and murder the person who killed them in life
My head canon. Donut steal.
Jeremiah Brooks
because ramsey was the new joff you idiot, people need someone to hate, a new arch nemesis and ramsey was it.
Brody Rivera
lol what's that bullshit, the reason hollywood does that isn't because people give them a pass on artistic integrity, hollywood doesn't give a fuck what the public thinks of it's artistic integrity, they just want to make money, if they could make money filming someone thowing shit on a wall they'll do it, and television is better than ever. you wanna go back 15 years and watch shit like CSI Miami?
Charles Anderson
Tarly's too
Angel Brooks
Forgot him because the show killed him off so fast. He was dope. Like a more sexist Stannis.
Nathan Evans
hello, this is 1990, I want my anti-television opinion back
Luke Morales
>Oberyn Good luck with his skull being split in half.
Hudson Ross
ramsey doesnt mean shit in the books he's such a minor character. the only time he's remotely interesting is when he's posing as reek and then reveals he's the bastard of bolton, and they didnt even do that right.
Honestly my own theory for the bolton family was also shat upon by the series, but I was like 90% convinced that Roose Bolton is a mother fucking skinwalker and was grooming Ramsey as his heir becuase he was going t steal his fucking face one day. He's a more extreme version of he faceless men, somehow immortal through taking the bodies of his children. Why else name an unstable psychopath bastard his true heir?
Cooper Scott
Even then it wasn't after the books that the show completely changed, the writers just didn't know how to write a good Dorne plot and everything just got worse and worse.
Connor Parker
You will see how it SHOULD have happened when the book is released. CIA guy was inconviniant to the plot becasue of how sceming he was.
Why the FUCK would would he not leave after the autist in the wheelchair said "chaos is a ladder"
Also, fuck that, that was Kangaroo Court .
Jeremiah Sanchez
>why would a man name his son as heir? >MUST BE AN IMMORTAL VAMPIRE ZOMBIE
Ryan Barnes
How do you feel about ethics in gamer journalism?
Ian Gonzalez
Because GoT apperantly turned into a fan service show. Did you realize that not only his death, but also many other things like jaimie surviving the dragon attack or tyrion surviving a conversation with cercei are only made because the fans would be pissed off otherwise?
Kayden Stewart
well to be fair to them, George Martin didn't know how to write one either
Adam Baker
Are you actually autistic? He may be good at hiding things, but Rob can see things that happened in the past.
Nathan Brown
the greatest thing about the ridiculous wait between books is the retarded theories that you get, like the one where tyrion is the son of khal drogo and daenerys, he got sent back in time through blood magic and gets born from joanna lannister. the greatest and most retarded thing i've ever read
