    Geek alert: Game of Thrones on HBO

    Just finally got around to watching season 8 so have avoided this thread.

    Overall season, meh. But didn't expect anything else really based on how things were getting done the last 2-3.

    My question going back to the Knight King - how the fuck did they defeat him the first time and build the wall if the only way you can really win against him is - killing the knight king?!?! Uh wut?
    And what about that stark sign the dead made in the snow when the wall fell?

    And why did they apparently rebuild the wall if the the white walkers are all gone now?

    I wasn't too flummoxed by anything this season as total stupidity until the whole wrap it up sequences after Dani got stabby. Everything after that was groan ville.

    And who was the prince that was promised?

    And where the fuck did the dothraki go? And how were there that many left anyway after the battle of winterfell.

    Overall, the first couple seasons were night and day better than the rest hands down.

    It's the little things that make me laugh.

    I say Bronn wins. Stayed outta the 2 major battles, has a shitton of land/stuff and don't really give 2 fux anyways. And now he controls da monies.

    Excellent observation! You're totally right! He definitely came out the winner if there ever was one on this show.

    Do you think all, or any of the actors will have successful careers (stardom) as a result of their roles in GoT?
    Emilia? Yes
    Sophie? Probably not so much
    Peter? Already successful
    Kit? No way
    Lena? Meh... not great, but not bad like Kit.
    Nikolaj? A good "b" film actor, or minor parts in movies ....sort of like my buddy, John McGinley in his early career.
    What do you guys think.

    I think many of them already have careers outside of GoT.

    "Emilia? Yes": Played Sarah Connor in Terminator: Genisys and Han's girlfriend in Solo. She'll definitely be picking up big roles in the future.
    "Sophie? Probably not so much": What're you talking about? She's Jean Grey/Phoenix! Her career's getting straight launched right now.
    "Peter? Already successful": Yup!
    "Kit? No way": Yeah, he's a wild card. I'm not so sure how successful he'll end up being but he'll probably land a leading role here and there.
    "Lena? Meh... not great, but not bad like Kit.": She already had a pretty big career! Awesome actress honestly. Funny enough, she ALSO played Sarah Connor in the TV series. She was in 300, Dredd (played the main villain), Pride Prejudice & Zombies, and more.
    "Nikolaj?": Also been in a TON of stuff. Oblivion's the one that pops out right away, but was also in Gods of Egypt, was the lead in the (short lived) TV show, New Amsterdam, and the list goes on.

    I'd say with pretty much the entire cast, now that they just got freed up, they're probably on a ton of casting directors' radars now.

    Bran wins for biggest paycheck least amount of work.

    I guess a good blank stare pays well.

    With Sophie, I think that she started GoTat the ripe age of 13, and her acting is not all that great.Maybe, it is just that I really didn't like her character all that much.
    Lena: I like her, but not sure that she is an "A" lister. I don't see her becoming a "major" motion picture star, but I look forward to seeing her in the future.
    The one who I forgot to mention who I think is exceptional is Maise

    Disagree on Sophie and Lena. Kit will be in a few things, but I expect he'll fade. I loved Arya/Maisie, but don't think she'll be a star.

    Dany lives!!! "daenerys has been resurrected by kinvara and will be living the rest of her days in essos with dragon, at the house with the red door and the lemon tree #GameOfThrones"
    Wish that it would have been incorporated at the end of the show, instead of all the feel good BS with Jon and the wildlings

    Fuck Jon Stark, fucker upper of every strategy possible. He was truly the opposite of Little Finger; he had no idea had to play the game of thrones. He truly was Ned Starks son

    Maisie is gonna be in the "New Mutants" Marvel franchise plus another film that's in production.

    Lena Headey will continue being awesome. She has 3 movies in the works. Emilia has two films in production, Nicolaj has 4.

    Kit Harington is just gonna be busy fucking Rose Leslie (SO HOT) some more.

    Yeah, regardless of whether he stays a star, he's already winning.

    He'll be back in the first of the series of motion pictures to be rolled out in about 5 years.. Guessing he'll be the one on the dragon terrorizing everyone else who basically fired him as master of war..

    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

    Ignore the image on this video, it has nothing to do with it. Pretty good and funny summary of some of the complaints and holes in this season.
