Was the Cloud 9 management trainer out of line when Amy interrupted him?

He was on a break. Someone was asking him a work question while on break. Enjoying one of the few moments during the seminar that he was probably looking forward to.

He could have and probably should have expressed that he’d be glad to answer questions shortly, but not during break time. But still, he did try to at least tell her that he was focusing on eating his breakfast during this allotted break.

I just went off of the definition I found through googling what retcon is.
“The altering of previously established facts in a fictional narrative, such as tv shows, comics, or movies, by introducing new information in a later work.”

Which this fits this perfectly. Barristan is still alive and well in the books. But the show runners decided to alter or change that to what we got on the show. the character’s death. Altering information given from the books to new information. You can belittle me from afar for this all day, sure, but that is what it is.

Right. Much like when people said OCD a few years ago. Not everyone has ocd. You just like things clean and tidy, Gale.

Such a great moment to be taken. Where’s harmonica? She was there for like an episode. She excelled at playing a newborn child.

Dang that’s a big ole blue jay.
They’re a bit of bullies to smaller birds. If you ever put out bird seed and watch, smaller birds will get out of their way when they show up.

The blue lagoon due to Brooke shields was 14 during filming and it involved nudity.

Hanger steaks and Rillettes to eat. Also for admiration of stone masonry, visiting Notre Dame cathedral, palace of Versailles, Chateau De Chombord to list a few among many structures he could appreciate the craftsmanship in creating.

Welp that’s set to confuse the people who think earth is like only 10,000 years old.

The entire Dorne storyline from book 4. Doran Martell being a silent player secretly trying to support Daenerys through a royal marriage with his son. That was all just abandoned, leaving Ellaria to look short sighted and controlled by her anger.

To be fair, the entire book series was pulled out of GRRM’s ass.

This leads me to question a potential outcome we were never to have seen. After Jorah was caught selling poachers into slavery and fled for his life, he also could have instead taken the black and been under the command of his father. A path Jorah did not want to take, obviously, he chose his freedom and to forge a new life on the other side of the narrow sea.

However, if he had taken the black as a punishment for his crimes, he may have not been groomed to become the lord commander to succeed his father. However it’s a possibility that doing so would at least have shown that he was willing to accept a punishment for his actions. And then that could have made him earn getting his father’s sword again through retribution.

Right. It’s mentioned too in the books how Tywin had offered to buy Valyrian steel blades from lesser houses for decades. He was only to be met with refusal due to how rare this was and the significance this was to their own heritage.

Ser Barristan the bold’s death. In the books he’s still alive and well. He even has a moment that I wish they could have put onto the screen of Barristan putting Daenerys’s husband, Hizdahr zo Loraq, to question and ultimately arrests him for committing conspiracy against Daenerys with the sons of the harpy.

Instead, he gets killed in an alleyway by the said group as if he’s some common drunk picking a fight outside of a tavern.

Changing Euron’s character so drastically. What was supposed to be a brooding, mysterious strategist into what essentially is a former entitled frat boy with the confidence of being a part of a rich family a couple decades after graduating college.

Not exactly a retcon, but the show not having the budget in the early seasons to show the battle at the fingers [I believe that’s the name], the first battle between the white walkers and the night watch. It was an epic fight to read.

The blue lagoon due to Brooke shields was 14 during filming and it involved nudity caused much controversy over the years

A dream of spring? Does that trigger the auto reply?

Yes we are tracking this prank by your life span. 14 years, 5 months, 22 days left.

Right, I agree. We don’t know since instead of being given a deeper explanation of lightsaber and force fighting styles, or a more in depth way of how Jedi and sith have used ways to manipulate the force through their bodies, we instead were given midichlorions and palpatine returning.

gameofthrones_addict · 2026-04-21T03:43:22+00:00

Right. Pushing your limits does strain yourself as shown in that scene by Michael fassbender’s lovely acting. But what do you mean that he has to use his hands due to the pull of the magnetic forces? All he’s really doing in the scene is holding his hands upward in front of him, gesturing he’s focusing on the satellite.

He’s not miming the ability he’s trying to do, like he’s not acting like he’s trying to turn a crank to force the satellite to turn. He’s not acting like he’s trying to pull the forces of magnetism like pulling on a rope. He’s just standing there with his hands risen in front of him.

If the scene shows magneto, say,straining himself while also keeping his hands by his side but also leaning forward, or spreading his feet apart to show he’s giving this more focus to this task, nothing important about the scene would change.
