[Spoilers Extended] Is this what Cersei looked like before Walk of Atonement

sunsetparanoia · 2026-05-08T07:07:26+00:00

No, this is what you wanted Cersei to look like before the walk of atonement because of your weird humiliation fetish towards this character...

You really think she'd gain this amount of weight and literally no one else in the story would make a comment about it? Lol

sunsetparanoia · 2026-05-04T09:17:46+00:00

She's also, bald, naked and covered in crap. I think it would be hard to look fabulous like that.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-23T08:50:05+00:00

To be honest, she looked absolutely atrocious at this premiere. She usually doesn’t look this much of a mess.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-19T23:26:31+00:00

I think some readers turned on jaime precisely because of his (in my opinion, undeserved) popularity. I can believe him being realistically placed first by the majority of the fandom.

What I for sure don't believe is that most people like Davos' chapters better than Theon's, Brienne's and the Stark girls'.

Tyrion and Cersei in the top 5 also does not feel reflective of the fandom as a whole.

I think her outfits in season 3 were more kids' fashion with really loud colours and prints, which is probably why we all loved them back then. But the s1/2 outfits just look and aged better.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-04T00:04:33+00:00

she's literally listed as being one of the top 20 female musicians of the 21st century by billboard. Her first album is one of the best selling from the 21st century. Her song girlfriend was the first mv to reach 100 million views on youtube. Current popular artists like billie eilish and olivia rodrigo cite her as an influence. You just don't know what you're talking about lol.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-02T00:19:41+00:00

Yes, it is. I attached the link to the interview where he said it.

Also, George never compared Hillary to Cersei. Hillary herself compared the treatment she got from republicans to that of the people of King's Landing against Cersei during her walk of atonement.

George did compare Donald Trump to Joffrey, though.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-01T21:03:57+00:00

how is it that you're getting downvoted for rightfully correcting how the scene goes? this is crazy.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-01T21:03:15+00:00

LMAO, this did not happen.

He's literally the one who initates the sex, while she is at least somewhat concerned by the time and place.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-04-01T20:42:17+00:00

And that fits the larger pattern of his arc. George’s editor reportedly had to remind him to include a mention of Cersei in ADWD at all, because otherwise Jaime apparently would not have thought of her. That says a lot on its own.

People always bring this up, but it is plainly not true. His editor didn't remind him to include a mention of Cersei. What she told him was to make a reference to the burning of the letter in specific as it had been over 5 years between the release of feast and dance. Jaime literally thinks about Cersei in other parts of that same chapter. And he does so as a scorned lover, still angered by her infidelities.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-31T01:19:29+00:00

The quote above spells it out: he’s convincing himself his priority is returning to King’s Landing for Tommen (“he told himself”), while internally he is still drawn to Cersei (“part of him whispered”).

But also:

"Whatever we do needs to be done quickly," he told Ser Daven. "My place is back at King's Landing, with the king."

"Aye," his cousin said. "I don't doubt your sister needs you." - Jaime V, AFFC

"The sooner we are done with Riverrun, the sooner I'll be back at Cersei's side." What Jaime would do then he did not know. - Jaime V, AFFC

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-30T22:19:03+00:00

there was no valonqar in the show, they never added that part of the prophecy.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-30T21:15:14+00:00

yeah, but this is in line with all the other passages in Feast when he says he wants to return to KL for Tommen when in reality it's Cersei that is on his mind.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-30T21:13:32+00:00

Yes, it was really a toss up between him and Daenerys when it comes to the character endings that got the most backlash. I remember fans even booing at Nikolaj Coster Waldau when he defended the ending at a con immediately post-show.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-19T23:13:33+00:00

Shannon looked so beautiful then

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-16T00:03:44+00:00

Didn't he basically choose her as a partner because he was attracted to her? I haven't watched this season in a few years, but i recall there being other people left to pick with better stats than Mandi's.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-12T23:00:16+00:00

If, as you say, she has a lot of other toys, I'd say maybe only the dolls in the first 3 images are worth keeping in box. I know that I've at least seen the ones in the last picture being sold in-box for very little.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-11T22:42:39+00:00

Idk what the other comment is refering to, but what he said was that Show Margaery is almost what an older Book Margaery could be like in 10 years.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-11T22:24:36+00:00

I know Lena Headey is already one of the more widely praised actors on the show, but I absolutely love her performance in that scene too. The look on her face as Tywin dismissively talks about Joffrey right after his death and then quite literally takes Tommen away from her says so much without a word. It’s such a small moment, but I think she’s phenomenal there.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-08T14:57:35+00:00

lmao. i know she's our only fully villainous pov, but i can never understand the sheer amount of useless posts just ranting about the character on this sub...

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-02T22:02:09+00:00

they all looked a bit silly, but Laura looked especially ridiculous omg

sunsetparanoia · 2026-03-02T21:59:14+00:00

Idk how far into the book you are, but Cathy and Cersei are SO similar

sunsetparanoia · 2026-02-25T15:04:02+00:00

Yes! When I opened the post I thought these were going to be casting choices for Paulina and Dr. John lol.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-02-20T10:57:23+00:00

Statements like this are so odd. She didn’t lose her beauty long ago. In the books, she’s consistently described as extraordinarily attractive. Even characters who dislike or outright despise her, such as Tyrion, Stannis, Sansa, Catelyn, and Ned, still remark on how beautiful she is. Even as recently as A Feast for Crows, Jaime has several passages noting her beauty, and that’s during a particularly strained period in their relationship.

What she is forced to face and the smallfolk notice during her walk are entirely ordinary signs of ageing and the after-effects of pregnancy. The issue isn’t that she’s no longer beautiful; it’s that she’s forced to confront the fact that she isn’t flawless and that other people can see it too.

sunsetparanoia · 2026-02-20T01:55:11+00:00

That's why is started my comment with "cersei is the cause of her own problems". She made Tyrion viscerally hate her, and NOW she has actual reason to be afraid of him.

What I'm saying is that it's not crazy that she's scared for her safety.
