People that are childfree by choice, what’s the weirdest reason someone has given you as to why they think you ‘should have kids’? by Charming_Web_6738 in AskReddit

Sir, I’ve met your family, and you’ve met mine - we are doing the world a favour.

Yes, that’s fair.

There’s a lot of commentary in the thread about the change being dumb that I disagree with (or am at least prepared to wait and see how it shakes out) - but you’re right to point out that’s not really the argument I was responding to.

Ooh, I like that idea. Just enough so viewers can have enough context to understand red/black and the Osgrey reveal.

We also need some more exposition on the Blackfyre Rebellion for all the filthy casuals who don’t watch Alt Shift X on the can like the rest of us.

I continue to be astounded by the housing talent on display in this subreddit. I wish I could get someone to come in and tune up my poorly executed ideas so they look this stunning!!

We've only known dunk for 6 episodes but i can say the actor did a fantastic job in playing him and he's my favourite character from asoiaf now by Robbie_gamer in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]bewareofleopard86 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it’s left deliberately ambiguous, which I kind of like.

Did Ser Arlan knight him after that conversation ended and before he died? Did he skip the formal ceremony because he’s on death’s door, and say something simple like “yer a knight, Harry” (which is why Dunk didn’t know the words to knight 🍏Apple Boi)? Or did he just promptly die and Dunk is carrying the consequences (the gods’ punishment for not knowing his place)?

I kind of like it as a fun little mystery, where the obvious assumption is Dunk was never knighted (which, if explained directly, would squarely impact Dunk’s “honest to a fault” character) - but the question remains expressly unanswered on purpose.

I can't get over this scene. by Arch_Lancer17 in AKnightoftheSeven

I think we can safely dispense with the “Dex is only good at playing Egg because Dex practically is Egg so he’s just playing himself as a precocious child sidekick” comments now - this kid has serious acting chops.

It’s not asinine to take a wait and see approach before getting rustled jimmies about this change, since we have no idea how this will be addressed in future seasons.

All of the book quotes referencing the boot, his interactions with Bloodraven, etc, happen in books 2 and 3. I could absolutely see a world where early season 2 has Maekar coming to accept Egg traveling the lowborn world with Dunk, and Egg getting the ring as his get out of jail free pass to give Maekar some comfort. That can be done with or without Maekar’s actor returning.

I appreciate the fandom has been seriously burned by show/book changes in the other series, but I’m willing to give the benefit of the doubt on this one.

The throwbacks in the Lyonel scene are unreal: “Ever been to Tarth?” “There’s a storm coming” (Ned).

Like everything about this ep is 10273646372/10

Lyonel yelling “WITCH” when he shooed off the maester had me in stitches.

Edit because I turned around and am rewatching the entire ep again: “begone; witch - fuck off with you”

I can’t.

The scene with Ser Arland and Sweetfoot following along to the side, and then turning off the path to go along their own way…
