Yep, both are awesome characters ( Well Cercei is a fucken bitch but she plays it well....I've already expressed my Bronn man love ) and hard to imagine anyone else in those parts
There's a good reason most people can't imagine anyone else playing those parts...
My understanding is their relationship was over before the first season even started. So it seems odd to me that they knew each other was going to star and specifically stated they wouldn't work with each other.
I'd never heard of Jerome Flynn before GoT

I think you're overcomplicating it.....
"This bloke is a TV star, fuck he'd be good for the role.....oh I see he hates Lena whatshername.....ah well, loads of characters just write everything seperate so they never have to see eachother"

So what are the end predictions. Finally watched it last night.
The obvious one to me is that Snow commandeers a dragon that becomes loyal to him and takes out the dragon lady on her Dragon and he gets the throne and a dragon or two as pets?
But that is unlikely now the story is heading that way.
@Hooroo I can't recall if it has been raised in the series, but it certainly is in the books, and that is ... there is only ever one "rider" for a dragon. Once the first person is allowed (by the Dragon) to ride the dragon then they are bonded until death do them part.
So the significance of Jon (Aegon Targaryen) Snow riding Rhaegal was either downplayed by this episode or will come up later or just simply ignored.
Also cool is that the dragon he rode was named after his Father but he wasn't aware of that fact until after he rode it.

Perhaps I am. But if someone came to me and said I'm happy to work on this, but I can't be in the same room as this other person, I'd quickly determine which (if any) of them I needed.

Cooooooooooooooooooool!!! I hope it does tie back and acknowledged in the program. I haven't read any of the books so have no clue about it. I barely remember character names, only recognise the face

Boring episode. Massive yawn.

Richie Blackmore and Tawera Nikau played this game for the NZ kiwis years ago. Just saying...

Well, only Nikau did ... which was why he had an abbreviated career. Idiot.

From what I’ve heard if your name is Richie Blackmore you’re an arsehole that doesn’t get on with anyone

Good solid ‘put the chess pieces in place’ type episode. Some nice chats from some main characters with the Hound and Thomond both earning some belly laughs with their offensive one liners.
The predictable ‘oh fuck there are the white walkers’ ending has set up next weeks episode to be an absolute banger. Already planning a long lunch break for that one.
-
Yeah I really enjoyed it, got a bit teary when Sansa met Theon - pod singing was very pippin in lord of the rings.
We've got four more long episodes where everything is going to go to shit. Can't wait.
Also good to see that the night king is after nothing but death and destruction, means they're not spoiling the books which will certainly be much more nuanced.
Like in the books they're actually not monsters just ethereal and different.
-
FFS Enough with the chess pieces having yarns.
Not many will ever watch that episode twice. Which is indicative. -
@Baron-Silas-Greenback gotta have them do character building stuff so it hurts more when they get killed
-
@Machpants Nope. Anyone who has been paying attention knows the ending will be sad, inconclusive and annoying. People shouldnt need nearly 2 hours of screen chit chat for that...
-
Two rubbish episodes. If you have a short season why waste two with filler? I haven't seen so much padding since the Hobbit.
I don't need action, but there is a lot of plot to advance, and what did they give us? Stuff we already knew.
I could have done without the Thrones reunion tour, should have condensed all of that to one episode.
