Martin notes that — in his books, at least — the Targaryen family possesses no such powers. “Targaryens are not immune to fire!” Martin said in a 1999 interview. “The birth of Dany’s dragons was unique, magical, wondrous, a miracle. She is called The Unburnt because she walked into the flames and lived. But her brother sure as hell wasn’t immune to that molten gold.” We'll see soon enough

Wayne Cubed Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) I’m sorry but if you think this last episode is all of what Game of Thrones has been building towards than you’ve been mistaken. It has always, always been about the Iron Throne. The WW and NK is a story arc within the battle for the Iron Throne. It’s not the main arc for the entire series, but one of many. The story arcs introduced in the first episode are the WW/NK/Beyond the wall, Danny and her plot to retake the Iron throne, the Lannister’s and their claim to the throne and the Starks and the North. Those then splinter off into characters and other stories. Those 4 main storylines have been present since the beginning, none of them as the most important story and all having to do with a claim to Westeros and the Iron throne. This was simply the ending to 1 of those story lines and I’m not even sure it’s the most interesting because the NK has no dialogue the entire series. The other 3 stories have had HUGE amounts of dialogue and character building. Edited April 29, 2019 by Wayne Cubed 2 1
Rockpile233 Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 Further development of the NK seems unlikely at this point apart from what could be a very fun spinoff series if they do it well. I’m dissapointed with how they chose to leave it, but it was a fun ride.
Wayne Cubed Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) I’m actually kind of happy that the whole WW/NK story is dead, so to speak. Wasn’t a massive fan of the night shots but I understand why they did it. I think it served it’s purpose and I haven’t like how they handled it from the last season anyways. ONTO CERSEI!!!

Rockpile233 Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 I don’t necessarily think Jamie sees Cersei again. I expect Bronn goes through with it and kills one of Jamie or Tyrion. I see Jamie as making more sense here.

I don’t see a point in keeping him alive. I kind of think it ends up being Tyrion.

Then again he said he didn't want to be anywhere near Dragons again.

He’d have to miss for one of them to survive and Bronn is usually synonymous with not missing.

Much like the Starks I think it’s important to the story line for all the Lannister’s to reunite. Edited April 29, 2019 by Wayne Cubed 1

Nextmanup Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 I really enjoyed last night's episode and consider it one of the better episodes of the entire show to date. Of note: I did probably 20 pages of reading at two GOT dedicated forums last night after the show, and I would say it's fair to say the episode was by and large very poorly received by fans. Many complaints that it was too dark and hard to see what was happening, not enough big names killed, the whole thing was too short and easy after such a long, epic build-up, the way the NK was killed was too simplistic and Arya was a poor choice as the killer, etc... One thing: it was fairly obvious that the good guy army was completely decimated in the Battle of Winterfell. So then with what army is Dani going to go duke it out with Cersei? I suspect she will still magically have a large army at her disposal, but that is rather unrealistic. 2

Targaryan's don't burn. Not true. not all Targaryens burn who died with molten gold on his head? Dany’s ***** brother. who got burned throwing the lantern at the white walker in Castle Black? Jon snow burned his hand
