Religious and magic powers do exist. What if the White Walkers broke through the wall and slaughtered everyone in the south?It is some unexplained shit.

It is a "high fantasy" based series, so ... :hmm:It is some unexplained shit.
Unexplained?? It's Magic FFS, you are watching a fantasy show, Stanis bones the red woman and she gives birth to his shadow so he can kill Renly. Not that difficult to figure out.It is some unexplained shit.
I guess what I liked about Season 1 was the general lack of "high fantasy" elements.It is a "high fantasy" based series, so ... :hmm:
Thanks genius. I'm really glad your're here to explain these things to me.Unexplained?? It's Magic FFS, you are watching a fantasy show, Stanis bones the red woman and she gives birth to his shadow so he can kill Renly. Not that difficult to figure out.

Maybe the first time. There will be future instances of followers of the Red God doing supernatural stuff, so at least you won't complain about DEM anymore.I guess what I liked about Season 1 was the general lack of "high fantasy" elements.
I mean, by excusing the ghost's existence based on the fact that the series is "high fantasy" doesn't make it any less deus ex machina.
I don't know about that - the very first scene of the first episode had "high fantasy" elements - the white walker.I guess what I liked about Season 1 was the general lack of "high fantasy" elements.

About 10 minutes in 10 episodes.I don't know about that - the very first scene of the first episode had "high fantasy" elements - the white walker.
Direwolves, 3 eyed crows, dragons, etc. :hmm:About 10 minutes in 10 episodes.
Well, arguably none of them were responsible for the death of any major character, or influenced much of anything. Direwolves might as well have been regular wolves. 3 eyed crows, I didn't even notice. Dragons got borned, and that's it.Direwolves, 3 eyed crows, dragons, etc. :hmm:
Fucking magic and the way it would more than likely go down in 'real life'.What is this plot device where he gets murder by this random, unstoppable black ghost shit?
The point was to show the power of the red woman.I think Renly's death was quite bullshit.
:thumbsup:The point was to show the power of the red woman.
More like complaining that bullets only hit the bad guys in cop shows.Complaining about the use of magic in a fantasy series - hilarious. I think I will start complaining about guns killing people in cop shows.
yeah, the show is very unconvincing of why TheonThe show gives a much more sympathetic portrayal of Theon than the books do.
In book 1 Theon fights with Robb and Robb trusts him, but I don't remember any real indication that Theon has a man crush on Robb. Absolutely no getting down on his knees and swearing that they are like brothers. In book 2 while he did suggest that Robb send his father the offer it was really suggested out of personal greed (Theon wanting to be a king after his father dies). IIRC there was no hesitation in him turning on Robb (no writing a warning letter and then burning it). The idea tois totally Theon's also.attack and take Winterfell
In short, he's a douche. But,he's totally going to get what's coming to him and much, much more. You just have to wait a few seasons.
ahh.. so spoilers are allowed in this thread?What is this plot device where he gets murder by this random, unstoppable black ghost shit?
ala spartacus!Loved the first season, lots of story development with medium to highly violent scenes.
In season 2, seems like a lot of uncomfortable scenes that don't really add to the overall story and week after week they're trying to top themselves in how much gore they can get away with so the storyline pace is slowing quite a bit for my taste.
It's not unstoppable there's one way to protect yourself from it. I doubt that it will be in the series because they will be cutting parts from the books out...What is this plot device where he gets murder by this random, unstoppable black ghost shit?
As mentioned earlier, it's even worse in the books. At least he prepared a warning letter in the series.yeah, the show is very unconvincing of why TheonWTFBBQ!?switched sides.
one moment he's there to convince his father to ally w/Robb Stark. the next he want to fight along Dad's side AGAINST Robb.
and is pissed he only gets 1 ship to attack the family that raised/trusted him for the past 9yrs.
and this was only days since he set foot in Dad's house.
The show did a horrible sell on this.![]()
Keep in mind that Theon is supposed to be 16 or 17, so not much he is going to do would make sense anywayAs mentioned earlier, it's even worse in the books. At least he prepared a warning letter in the series.
