Game of Thrones (HBO) TV Show • Page 479

House Baratheon was formed after Aegon's conquest by a bastard Targs.

 

Yep, the Iron Islands became distinct from the Riverlands, and they cut out an area to make the Crownlands (ie King’s Landing)

 

I doubt we'll ever see this dornish prince. I think he's just there as a plot device to remind everyone the rest of the world's still ticking.

Who are the current "leaders" of each region?

North: Starks
Iron Islands: Greyjoys
Stormlands: Gendry
Whatever the actual name of where Casterly Rock is: Lanniesters
Crownlands: Lanniesters
Dorne: new dornish prince
Vale: ???
Riverlands: ???
Reach: ???

 

Yeah the storm Kong’s of old were the Durridans I believe.

If I remember my lore correctly, the original 7 Kingdoms were North, Vale, Stormlands, Reach, Dorne, Westerlands, and Iron Islands. The riverlands were just an area of land always trading hands between the Storm Kings, Kings of the Rock, and the Iron Islanders. When Aegon came, it was under control of the Iron Ilanders. He melted Harren the Black and all of his heirs in harrenhall, and then raised a new Lord of the Trident at Riverrun. Now we’ve got our “make the 8” with the 7 Kingdoms and the Riverlands.

Then he carved out a piece of the Stormlands and the Riverlands for the crown and called it the Crownlands, so that’s 9. Then there’s Dragonstone and all the other islands that I think technically are also under the catagory of Crownlands.

 

They cast someone to play him at least. Hard to say if we ever actually see him though

Actor is Toby Osmond supposedly

 

interesting. if the kingdom does wind up getting split up, we could definitely see him at the end as part of a council scene. Or just have him there for a coronation. Either way, I doubt he'll be there for you to care about just to help complete the puzzle.

 

Oh no

 

My one gripe about the storyline is that I wish they expanded upon TPTWP storyline or Azor Ahai, they could have easily made this season about WW/Cersei and the next season about whichever one wasn't touched upon. I feel like it's being rushed too much and so much fast travel is involved.

The one thing about GoT was the journey. Travelling companions and prisoners coming upon towns/soldiers and the interactions were great but they've lost that recently and it's such a shame. I know this was based on a GRRM outline but I figure they had a good few seasons left if they'd just taken the time to expand.

 

It was me! First watch through I couldn’t stand the actress’ voice and I was impatient during their story. After binging she grew on me and I didn’t mind seeing her after that.

 

Has there been a Gilly and Gendry scene yet? There needs to be

 

Re-watching now....drunk Tormund is the best. Watching him get his heart broken by Brienne (temporarily) is sad/funny too

 

The "Now, which one of you shit my pants?" and then him telling Sandor about his heartbreak and trying to talk to him like they're buddies omg

 

lol poor drunk Gendry..."You're beautiful annnd I love you annnnd none of it would mean anything without you!"...Poor giddy Gendry.

 

NO. UNWATCHABLE.

 

Was there something else recently that made this joke? It seemed so familiar to me the second he said it but I can’t find anything specifically with that line.

 

It's said in Endgame when Scott and the rest of the gang test the Quantum machine and he keeps coming back a different age

 

I feel like someone made a "piss my pants" joke this season or last season but I also can't remember specifically who it was.

Edit-OOO wait...did the "Too Long didn't watch" imgur recap use a joke about pissing my pants??? For some reason that seems right.

 

Ah shit yeah this is it.

 

Didn't think of the correlation but now I will every time I do a rewatch!

 

They said that in Endgame?!

 

Not with shit, but with piss!

 

Oh ok, that makes so much more sense! I must have heard that quote out of context somewhere else, I’m sure that’s why it was on my mind.

 

Yeah, pretty memorable moment in the movie. Rudd is comedy gold!
