Look at all of the artwork depicting the books online to see what I mean.

I would think so. Not that anyone will care after what that family did. I am sure that will get out. She took out all of the men. Who gets that castle when all is said and done?
Yeah, I doubt anyone would care about the freys but it's more about people discovering just how ruthless Arya really is.

No he isn't. He was willing to sacrifice his life because he saw an opportunity to end the war by killing Dany. He came extremely close to doing it.
IMO, killing Dany would only escalate it....then you have Dathraki going straight at KL without anyone to tell them to stop, not to mention a pissed of dragon (all while his two brothers are just resting for battle)......not to mention Grey Worm would still be pissed, and the Imp isn't exactly on the Lannister side anymore. Killing Dany hardly ends anything, it just makes things more chaotic and bloody.

Not so sure about that. It would leave them fractured and leaderless, thus easier to plan against. The dragons don't answer to anyone except Dany, as far as we know that is. A divided enemy is easier to fight against.

There was a dragon standing next to her.
He didn't try to attack from afar, he literally charged her as if that dragon wouldn't hear him coming. Dumb move.

Yeah, the threat of betrayal from Jamie to Cersei is high.

He had nothing to attack him from afar with. He did the only thing possible, and imo it was a super high risk super high reward move that to tremendous courage. It was not at all dumb.

He could have thrown the spear. Grabbed a bow. It's simply not smart in my opinion. Think things through.
he's got feet though.Darth Celtic wrote:Greenie wrote:Ignitowsky wrote:He had nothing to attack him from afar with. He did the only thing possible, and imo it was a super high risk super high reward move that to tremendous courage. It was not at all dumb.

A right handed man throwing a spear left handed, or a 1 handed man shooting a bow and arrow. Riiiiiiight.

Stop nitpicking.
Well I wasn't. This is a legit point. How many repetitive scenes can you have:
1. Podrick getting his arse handed to him by Brienne with no progression.
2. Littlefinger speaking in creepy tongues to Sansa and nothing.
3. Davos really doing nothing but keeping the grammar Nazi gag going.
Give me more meaningful scenes dedicated towards other characters.
Maybe Podrick just isn't meant to be a fighter? Not everyone has that ability. And it's not like that scene took a lot of time. It segwayed into that scene with Arya, which was pretty damn cool.
I think the point of Littlefinger getting nowhere with Sansa is to show that he's boxed into a corner. He really doesn't have many options left and his days are numbered. Which makes him even more dangerous. He miscalculated his position by supporting her. He can't withdraw his support and the Lords of the Vale would never attack the Starks in Winterfell. I'm curious to see what his hail mary attempt will be.
Davos is a sidekick to Jon at this point. it remains to be seen whether or not he's going to be doing something on his own.

It's all going to come to a head. Instant gratification isn't always a good thing.
