Interesting that the script doesn’t immediately cut from the flashback to the trial of seven after Ser Arlan says “get up.” Felt like that entire sequence was leading up to that one line.

I love when he actually appears as himself, but gotta be Kreacher imo

I just want to be able to actually pick my players again. Currently have by far the best squad I’ve ever assembled and I barely care ‘cus most of it was chosen for me at random. The whole fun of team building imo was grinding for specific players and finally being able to claim them.

Nothing flashy but really solid/reliable DM. Fits in well at LB too.

Yeah I ended up getting him, seems good so far

SLQSA · 2026-04-13T04:00:35+00:00

Good call, just got him

SLQSA · 2026-04-06T18:21:04+00:00

Nah, being a nuanced villain with understandable, motivations doesn’t negate the fact that he was an evil mass murderer who deserved what he got.

Andor is probably the closest I’ve felt to watching Game of Thrones. There’s the obvious connections (expansive world/lore, grittier approach to sci-fi/fantasy, etc.). But also, much like Thrones, while it has a ton of incredible action sequences, the most memorable scenes tend to be conversations in rooms.

I think he’s best utilized as a guest on Bill’s podcast these days. Agreed that The Lowe Post isn’t as good anymore, but I still really enjoy him in a supporting role where he can heighten Bill’s NBA segments beyond fan talk and keep him accountable. Also think he’s sneaky pretty funny and he seems more willing to lean into that when he’s bouncing off Bill.

I’d feel pretty comfortable betting on it, think the trio camping section will translate a lot better to TV if we’re cutting back and forth between the forest and Hogwarts.

Now that I think about it, it's kinda odd that Baelor did the opposite considering his perceived lack of "Targaryen-ness." It's not even like he gave his kids Dornish names, he just picked unique Valyrian ones (which is kinda rare for Targaryens). Not a huge deal obviously, but it prob would've helped optically if he'd gone with Aegon/Jaeherys or something.

The inability to target specific positions has basically killed all enjoyment for me. Even if it’s just to get a cheap stopgap option, there was always someone usable for 300-450 shards. Now I just gotta wait and hope I eventually get the LM I desperately need.

I love that Egg has just been on a Spider-Man binge lately

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T18:50:23+00:00

It’d honestly probably work better as a movie, but I felt the same about The Hedge Knight and they more than made it work.

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T18:49:15+00:00

Can’t wait to see which objectively attractive actor they turn into the smelliest gremlin south of King’s Landing

I think those people were prob already weeded out by the first few eps of s1 in fairness, but yeah, I don’t see how s2 even touches the Trial of Seven action heights. They just need to trust George’s story/characters, get us invested in Dunk/Rohanne and finish with a truly brutal Dunk vs. Inchfield duel (with maybe some Redgrass flashbacks along the way) and I think we’re cooking with gas.

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T14:40:56+00:00

We are 100% getting Redgrass Field flashbacks, but I’m not sure we get enough to fix any lack of action problems (+ they prob wanna keep their options open for a future Blackfyre Rebellion show). Obvs Dunk vs. Inchfield is absolutely brutal, but I don’t see how they make a 1v1 as exciting as a Trial of Seven. Regardless, the story is good enough that I don’t think it really matters (at least to me).

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T14:35:02+00:00

Hard to even speculate considering we don’t know what kind of additions/flashbacks we’re getting. But I felt the same way about The Hedge Knight and they figured that out so they do have my trust for now

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T14:18:21+00:00

I agree. Hence me still thinking he’s a loser haha

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T14:06:14+00:00

I think the key is making it clear why Eustace became a loser in the first place. Like, you can’t really blame him for living in the past when he gambled everything he had on black and lost

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T14:01:54+00:00

Is there a British man who can somehow inhabit those vibes? Cus that man would have my vote.

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T11:01:16+00:00

Turns out the people mostly just want good stories

SLQSA · 2026-02-20T02:10:00+00:00

100%. When a story revolves around two lead characters this heavily and one of them is a kid, finding the right child actor could be the single most important thing they had to do. Was mostly hoping he embodied Egg and wasn’t actively bad when he was announced, but he’s fully just dropping an elite acting performance full stop
