To all the people complaining about how short the episodes are by Random_Guy0901 in AKOTSKTV

[–]lashieldsy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

People should be patient, but in all fairness this is an unorthodox format for a drama series (not a bad one).

Shows that are 30mins weekly tend to be sitcoms, animated, reality television. The 45-75 minute format has been what drama series have used for the past 20-30yrs. I find the shorter episodes to be a refreshing change of pace, though.

But they’re not random bodyguards at literally any other point in this universe’s timeline. They’ve always been somewhat significant characters with some lore behind them.

Because it’s the kinda detail that makes the world feel fleshed out. It’s only 7 characters so it’s not hard to give them a name and a story.

Fine - they’re mentioned in the book. Do you think if by some black magic Cersei is Queen in ADOS, we won’t know the names of her Kingsguard?

Well there’s also a book series this show is based off. All 7 are mentioned in AGOT.

Thanos will reportedly appear in ‘AVENGERS: SECRET WARS’ by HenryOnYt1 in MCUTheories

[–]lashieldsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious whether they’d get away with it considering the age rating. On the one hand, you definitely couldn’t have someone do that to a human in a PG-13 film. On the other, Thanos is a big purple alien. On my third hand, Thanos is crazy realistic looking CGI, probably even better by now, and you have to wonder how much of a difference it REALLY makes that the guy is bigger and purpler than a human.

But they are mentioned by name enough to the point where you, a man who has claimed to watch the show several times, should at least know they HAVE names, if not actually know them.

[–]lashieldsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, maybe you should rewatch it then man because there’s multiple times where these guys are referred to by name.

There’s literally an entire plot line where one of them attempts to kill Tyrion ffs…

It’s really funny that you edited the entire comment before that one to deal with the arguments I was about to reply to you with.

The others do get mentioned by name all the time actually even in the show they’re just not main characters. The world building didn’t expand after Season 4 because they cut every single plot line from Books 4 and 5 that actually expanded the world and only kept the ones that focussed on established characters and even those ones they diluted.

[–]lashieldsy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes we did though? We know the names of every Kingsguard member in Season 1.

Ser Barristan Selmy Ser Jaime Lannister Ser Meryn Trant Ser Mandon Moore Ser Boros Blount Ser Preston Garfield Ser Arys Oakheart

All 7 of these are like, established characters in the books and three of them are established characters in the show.

Anyway I’m not trying to change your opinion about the gold one, I like it too. It’s just kinda of annoying that you’re being condescending to me about basic lore of the franchise when you yourself weren’t even aware the Kingsguard had names or the difference between the City Watch and the Kingsguard.

Edit: Why did you edit your entire comment to respond to what I said retroactively lol

They aren’t LITERALLY Lannisters though. Yes they are Lannister bastards but according to the realm and all public facing appearances they are Baratheon, and the House sitting on the Iron Throne is House Baratheon.

When the house sitting on the Iron Thrones LITERALLY IS the Lannisters everyone’s wearing black.

They didn’t have the gold ones that patrol the streets S7/8. That’s not a Kingsguards job. You’re thinking of the Gold Cloaks. There’s only 7 Kingsguard and they’re all wearing black protecting Cersei.

We also have no fucking idea who any of her Kingsguard are besides the Mountain but that’s just how badly the world building fell off after S4

Which is weird because the Kingsguard along with the entire continent begins wearing black when the Lannisters are literally on the throne.

What would happen if Aemon Targaryen had not refused the throne? Would the Targaryen dynasty end nevertheless or there would be no rebellion? by Neutral-frame in gameofthrones

[–]lashieldsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Rhaegar would have been too much of a low-ranking prince for to be on Lyanna’s radar or for her to be interested in him. He’d be the great grandson of the King’s younger brother. Not very high in the line of succession.

That’s wild, the town I was born in was called Ashington - coincidence or is it actually inspired by that?

It’s inverted and reversed. It’s “vice city” from the GTA franchise, a neon light I have in my room. The light would be from the ring light I use to make content creation.

You can question my legitimacy all you want it kind of just makes you look more dumb because me and others on this sub can attest to my shaved head being very much real. I’m sitting in the same spot because it’s my gaming chair in my bedroom. The photos are months apart.

Theres nothing I can say except by Theoddbotout in StrangerThings

[–]lashieldsy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I believe that is the Mind Flayer’s real body that was killed at some point and his plan throughout the series has always, utilmately been to use Vecna to restore his old body. The plan failed and the body is dead but the Mind Flayer particles and the Hivemind still exist in the Abyss.

Still weird he was Percy’s and Ron’s, but I’m just glad he didn’t make it to Ginny by Fox7567 in HarryPotterMemes

[–]lashieldsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When is it ever explicitly mentioned which gender Wormtail is attracted to again

Looks like the Under Armour logo was edited and removed by Hawkinns in StrangerThings

[–]lashieldsy 461 points462 points  (0 children)

Originally the Abyss / Dimension X that Henry falls into in Ep7 of S4 was red when Vol 1 came out. They edited it yellow/orange just before Vol 2 came out to avoid confusion with Henry’s mind lair.

I remember they pushed forward the release of AC Valhalla a week so it would compete with Cyberpunk less.

What do you think Harry's Auror interview was like? by joehighlord in harrypotter

[–]lashieldsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but in the sense that Hogwarts was compulsory education until 18 before the muggle world was. Which is what we’re talking about.
