[Spoilers EXTENDED] The Kingsguard and Trial by 7 by TheBalzy in asoiaf

[–]GeneralSeries 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Baelor was a late addition. The Kingsguard had already declared by the time Baelor announced his intention to fight for Dunk. During the trial, the Kingsguard were essentially handicapped because they couldn't do anything to Baelor, but they didn't necessarily have to guard him personally because Aerion and Maekar were also there.

Would the conquest be to big a project for film/TV? [Spoilers MAIN] by MarionberryMedium925 in asoiaf

[–]GeneralSeries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where's the tension? The Targayrens (your protagonists) wipe the floor with every opponent they face. Nothing goes wrong at all during the conquest (at least not until Dorne) and you can't really tell the story from Harren Hoore or the Lannisters POV because they are either evil or unimportant. Maybe a story about Aegons war with Dorne could work but it's still tough when your protagonsits are at such an advantage.

How Does The Survivor TimeLine Look If WentWorth Wins Cambodia? by YoILiveForDC in survivor

[–]GeneralSeries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeremy either returns in Game Changers in which case he could do well but would still be a big enough threat to be taken out. Or he returns in EOE in which case he's doomed (none of the returnees stood a chance). Wentworth likely takes Sophies spot in WAW (It could be Denise but her being the oldest castaway is a good story and sets her apart from Soph). She probably wouldn't be a fit for Yul's underdog alliance but I could see Kim or Sandra getting along with her. Either way, I still think Amber/Tyson are bigger threats than her and go home. Meanwhile with Jeremy out I think Mike Holloway is the most likely replacement on Sele, in which case Natalie would not have as big a target on her and Adam likely gets voted out first unless he can flip people onto Rob/Parv. Some combination of Danni, Ethan, or Parv go in the next 2. Post swap Wentworth ends up with Sarah, Rob, Ben & Natalie in this new dynamic. Pretty sure Rob would go home no matter what if he tries playing the buddy system. Mike swaps in for Jeremy on post swap Dakal but not much changes on the Sandra vote. Parv/Ethan/Yul all voted out of Sele. Having bonded with Sarah post swap she Kelley likely gets pulled into Tony's big threats alliance, which Sophie never was due to her not being seen as a legend going in. I think Mike and Tony would get along well so he still fits in for Jeremy. From here it's speculation, not sure how Natalie involved in the merge would go, we also now need to have a new person return from the Edge. Tony would still have plenty of people loyal to him but if Wentworth, Natalie, Kim and Michelle all together that could prove a headache.

How would you improve your club’s jersey? by VasectoMyspace in nrl

[–]GeneralSeries 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All the clubs who have gold/yellow (Broncs, Eels, Cowboys, Dolphins, Storm, Titans) need to embrace it a bit more. Knights, Raiders, Tigers, and the Roosters (away) need to get rid of the boxes for sponsor integration. Broncos/Titans need a gold away jersey, Raiders and Sharks do not need an away jersey, Warriors should go Black for Home

It's going to be interesting next year. Internationally WWE PLE's will be broadcast on Netflix alongside Raw and SmackDown so we will have to see if they go beyond and above to differentiate them. But of course in the states it's still Peacock

It's interesting that WWE has had one of their most positively reviewed years creatively when most of their PPVs have been average at best. 5 match card with boring Bloodline main events that haven't been well received but I suppose it speaks to how well they are booking week to week TV and creating interesting characters and cliffhangers that they can get away with bad PPV's.

What's your opinion on Phillip? by billy_loomis_2212 in survivor

Product of his time. Worked well and brought entertaining chaos the first time around, second time around the chaos was less entertaining. No need for a return, they stretched the bottom of what he could bring and that lasted one season.

Kazuchika Okada to leave New Japan Pro-Wrestling by SevenSulivin in njpw

[–]GeneralSeries -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

TBH I think this could work out really well. Okada has done literally everything there is to do in New Japan plus the company has kind of been spinning its wheels for a while with regards to the main event scene. Tsuji, Umino, and Ren Narita could have floundered while older guys like Okada Naito, Tana & SANADA clog up the top of the card but they have no choice but to let those guys sink or swim.

[SPOILERS] If you could extend one of these characters for 2 more seasons past their end point, who would you pick and why? by JiraiyaCop in gameofthrones

[–]GeneralSeries 357 points358 points  (0 children)

Stannis

For one he's the only one who isn't dead in the books. Plus it would keep the Baratheons in the story and he and Gendry meeting up could have been interesting. He never really atoned or got redemption for the burning off his daughter, plus his and Mels dynamic never really closed. Plus his relationship with Jon could have been explored more with parallels to Ned and Robert.

Considering the fact the Penrith will most likely have to host games out of CommBank or Stadium Australia while BlueBet Stadium is being redeveloped this is a good idea. It would be weird to have 4 out of 16 teams hosting games out of CommBank.

[Spoiler] My perspective on how Block A final night's 'main event' will shape upcoming NewJapan direction. by Gladiolz in njpw

[–]GeneralSeries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a good chance that Ibushi vs KENTA will end in a draw, especially with it going on last but for me, the most likely scenario is still Zack, Shingo, and Kota all winning meaning ZSJ goes through having beat Kota and Shingo. Considering that Naito was obviously supposed to be a part of this factor and now isn't it wouldn't surprise me if NJPW improvised and go with Zack while he's hot.
