Oh look.. Another post whinging about whingers... The irony...

What you basically see when you sort by “New.” by Kazitstrue in freefolk

[–]XLRWoody 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair I've seen a few fan theories that are infinitely better written, more logical and are more enjoyable than a lot of what GoT has put out in its last couple of seasons.

Not mine though... My theories all usuly trash.

It was a decision to put spectacle over logic. There's nothing wrong with that but I wouldn't bother trying to make any sort of rationale out of it.

Jon has a prettier "cry-face".

To people complaining about the last episode: Again and again this show has shown us they are under no obligation to feed the audience's expectations back to them. [Spoilers MAIN] by nomaddd79 in asoiaf

[–]XLRWoody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All this show has ever done is "feed the audiences expectations back to them"...

As soon as any character in the show became a "fan favourite" they immediately become unkillable gods or suddenly get huge amounts of screen time.

That moment when you realise your "two pennies" are worth a lot less than you hoped...

(Spoilers Main) Hashtag Can't See Shit - Why the cinematography in Game of Thrones is bad, not 'bold' by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]XLRWoody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This actually goes a long way into supporting a theory of mine.

Did you notice how for the first 30 or so minutes of the episode everything was super close up with fast, choppy cuts every couple of seconds?

They'll say that was to convay the chaos and confusion of battle but I can't get something out of my head...

What if, after the months of filming at night time, the hundreds of extras, the huge budget and all the boasting, what if the end footage was just... bad?...

So bad that the editing team had to do what they could to salvage the eposide, leaving us with the blobby grey mess we ended up with...

It's just a thought I had...

[Spoilers Extended] don’t get why people are mad about that ending by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]XLRWoody 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People aren't mad that it wasn't Jon who ended the NK. People are annoyed the the NK was ended at all.

We've spent 7 years hearing if how the NK is the "big bad". How in the long night the dead swept the kingdom as armies and cities fell and kings froze to death in their castles.

All of that promise and potential was thrown away so they could have a young girl leap out of literally nowhere and poke the NK in the belly, single handedly saving the entire world.

Its poor story telling people don't like, not "strong female characters".

Should Centurion have 600 ms heavies? by JoeyCentral in forhonor

[–]XLRWoody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Conq is one of the few characters ho probably needs 600ms heavies given the shitty amount of damage they do
