?? I don't recall anyone in this thread being confused about the opening scene, short of saying Arya was too tall. Or are you talking about the Arya scene with the Lannister soldiers?
Would be awesome if Arya killed Ed Sheeran, took his face, and then killed all the other main characters on the show as Ed ****ing Sheeran...
First Buck, now you. There literally is not one person in this thread confused or raising questions about the cold opening, short of saying "he" was too tall for Arya, but otherwise no questions or confusion I noticed. Or are you talking about the Lannister Soldier scene??
I was agreeing with your post when your replied to buck. Raising questions is not an equivalent to being confused Just questioning the scene.
This reminds me of the Man in the High Castle. Which is mediocre because of its stupid characters and its meandering without an end. I mean the show's ending is more or less the US gets back its independence. Outside that german ubergruber guy, the characters are devoid of charisma or unsympathetic. Good sci-fi dealing with parallel universes are less about the setting and more about the characters.
Uhhh.. errmmm.. *Third* Civil War? I feel like... like... there's just something MISSING from this whole scenario..
These schmucks didn't "create" Game of Thrones, they just adapted it. They have done a pretty great job on that front, but why in the hell would anybody feel they are particularly good at creating a world. And seriously, who the f**k wants to watch this. Black actors get to play slaves again, and the south gets to be reminded how we're all evil racists, sounds like good times.
Maybe just to make it different they should have made the white people slaves and the black people the masters. That would have made it a more interesting (at least for about 1 episode).
It could be Handmaid's Tale times a thousand, creating an insufferable fantasy world to signal their virtue.
I recently read that in the original book . . they basically killed all the black people Rocket River
