This is for the discussion of the TV show as its own entity. The books do not exist in this thread. No book comparisons, references, anything.
The current open spoilers thread for discussion of both the books and TV show is here. More of them may open up with a different niche, but that seems to be the main one at the moment.
Irritating. We’re watching, and it suddenly stops. Some sort of glitch in xfinity’s system. We’re not recording because I couldn’t figure out how to make it record the 6:00 showing, so we can’t try that. We’ll just have to watch the 9:00 show that’s recording tonight, tomorrow.
Presumably they came from the thousands of people gathered in the stands. They sneak in their fancy gold masks, watch the fights like every other citizen of Mereen, then at some prearranged time they put on their masks and attack.
I think it’s strange that they had so many spears that they could throw at the dragon, but none that they could throw at Daenyras from the stands. Then again, they probably had to take the spears from the fighting arena itself. It’s rather difficult to sneak in a bunch of spears. So maybe all the ones with spears were on the ground and couldn’t get a good angle on her.
It was fun to see the bloody, toothy maw of the dragon as it adorably sniffed Daenyras’ hand. It reminded me of the time I saw a bunch of blood soaked kittens eating a deer lung.
On a different note, I was prepared to flay (heh) people for being more outraged and quit happy over a rape than a little girl being burnt alive…but they dragged that out so long that I think there will be quite a few people saying that was the final straw.
We’ve even been shown that that particular dragon (Drogon?) would come back to Mereen now and then and seek out Daenyras. She seemed to call to him telepathically as well - I almost expected her eyes to go all warg-like.
