I think they killed Dorne off as soon as they were told by Martin how the books finished.. I reckon they got told how it ended and went.. 'and how the fuck does Dorne relate to this? why did you get us to build all this up?'<br><br>
I blame Martin and nobody else if Dorne is a dead end plot.</p></blockquote>
Didnt he pretty much give them the ending when the series started? If Dorne was a dead end they should have known before season 6. -

They had no choice but to include Dorne/the sand snakes due to the flagging amount of new titties we were seeing. -

<p>that would imply he has an ending, which with the multiple storylines, how you get there is a long and winding road.</p> -

<p>No he only told them when t became obvious that they were going to pass the books. </p>

<p>Possibly end of 2103?</p>

I'm pretty sure they knew the ending in the event the fat bugger carked it but in this instance were after more specifics. Who knows, Dorne may play a part. Two of those ridiculous sand bitches appear to be at Kings Landing and are very likely after Tommen.

<p>Must have missed that bit. Was that last night?</p> -
They must have been there to kill the prince in the boat in E1. Just don't question why he was still onboard and how the skanks got there. In fact why didn't they just poison the lot of them and be done with it. Seems a bit complicated to poison the girl then sail to KL to kill the boy. How fortunate he was still onboard!

<p>I'm not sure the heart is the correct body part to be discussing when thinking about Natalie Zea.</p>

<p>The Walking Dead:</p>
<p>So I've been avoiding this thread for a few months now because all you Williss kept spoiling the shit out of TWD but now I've finally watched all of the latest season. The first half of 8 episodes was awesome, constant action, none of the dumb plotting that TWD usually does to get their characters in peril. It was awesome action, action, and more action. And then the second half was back to normal. Characters doing dumb things, odd characters hooking up all of a sudden, etc etc. I don't like the actor player Negan so that's another black mark, but at least I'll be happy when someone finally kills him.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Americans:</p>
<p>[spoiler]Nina Sergeevna you have been found guilty and sentenced to death, BANG (none of this pussyfoot TWD fake out shit either) . Still the best drama going in my opinion even if it hasn't reached some of the heights of last year (body put in bag, teeth etc).[/spoiler]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Weirdly, now that I don't have a commute that involves walking, ferry and trains I don't watch as much TV as I don't get 60 minutes a day on the ferry to watch stuff and I obviously do other shit with my extra time now.</p> -
<p>you probably need to learn how to do spoilers...I haven't started The Americans yet!</p>

<p>... but sorry, cos it's an awesome show. </p> -
<p>well I read the bit about TWD, and as your mind automatically scans ahead....</p>

<p>I shall remember that next time I am about to spoiler something, I'll try to recall if you might have watched or not ;)</p> -
<p>GOT</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]Anyone else absolutely bored shitless with the Brann and the big dumb fuck who says Hodor a lot storyline ? Just about had to skip those scenes they were so dull. As Virg said awesome to see the GIant kick some ass, between him and Clegane there were two heads splattered on the wall within 10 minutes of the episode starting so that was very rewarding to see.<br><br>
That Ramsay is an absolute fluffybunny isn't he ? just gets more loathsome each new episode. What an evil arsehole. I have a feeling he is due for a spectacular and brutal death though, I've heard rumours Theon will be the one to do it too which would be fitting. Who was the bloke who pushed Greyjoy ( Theons Dad ) off the bridge ? was it his brother and have we seen him before ? [/spoiler]</p> -

<br>
That's Euron Greyjoy, brother to Balon (who he pushed)<br>
No that's the first time we have seen him, should have been included at least a couple or so series back.<br>
He's a crazy mofo, cut all his crews tongues out. <br>
What will likely happen next is the Kings Moot.... Basically similar to the US situation where you have Trump vs H. Clinton. -
<p>I think the flashbacks with Bran will be key to setting up a major storyline.</p>

<p>Maybe but that whole story better have an awesome conclusion cos it's fucken boring me shitless.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good to see Max Von Sydow in there though, doing the Star Wars/Bond/GOT trio. As far as I know there's one other who has done that AND Indiana Jones for good measure. Can you nerds name him ?</p> -
<p>ooh ooh I can, well, i can name his characters anyway</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So, GOT. How are we feeling? I finally got to watch the first two last night, and i was very "meh" about the whole thing. Fucking get on with it. I said after the last series, there is an interesting story there, if they would just develop it. But instead was get ever expanding individual story lines, many of which are fucking boring. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Ramsay thing is pissing me off. Yes, social media went apeshit when Joffrey died, but do you really have to try for the same exposure again? It's a boring storyline, fuck it off. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I get the horrible feeling these fluffybunnies are making it up as they go along, and what ever the conclusion, we're not going to be happy</p> -

<p>Can you elaborate on what you mean ? in terms of creating a hatable character they've done a wonderful job.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I do agree they need to get on with it, a couple of random bits of violence here and there won't cut it.</p>
