Man sex scene number 2 I didn't want to see
HA! I turned to my wife and was like, "Uh... this is weird, but... this isn't a sex scene I want to watch. I really don't want to see this guy climb that man/woman mountain thing."
Another bullshit episode from the writers that can't wait to just phone in this show and end the fucking thing already.
That Iron Born v Dragon scene was particularly awful. Three straight hits with a ballista against a dragon flying at 100 mph from presumably a mile away. But then after that absurd display of accuracy, the remaining 20 shots all miss with the dragon flying directly toward the fleet. I'll suppress the book nerd side of me that's also pissed that the books specifically mentioned that dragon scales are too hard to penetrate with ballistas.
And fucking Christ, has Dany's army heard of scouts, or at least not bunching up all 20 of her ships so their vulnerable to getting obliterated in literal seconds? The writers have turned Dany's army into literal retards in order to move the plot along to what's bound to be its underwhelming conclusion.
Just euthanize this fucking show already.
Just like HH gets off most on the Huskies sucking, I'm finding I'm paying a lot more attention to this show the more cravenly it blows goats. I didn't even try catching up on my web goofing off while the wife watched last night. Nope, I watched the whole damned thing, as pointing out everything that was fucking stupid was way more entertaining than this hellhole. One of my favorites was exactly what you pointed out: "So they go 4/4 from a mile away, of course right into the dragon that Blondie's NOT on, and none of the other boats shoot at the other dragon at the same time? Then she flies right to point blank range, and they all suddenly shoot at once and miss? What the shit?"
"And, flying way up in the sky, how was she not able to see a giant fleet of ships behind a tiny little island?"
"And why wouldn't she just fly around behind the fleet, faster than they could turn those huge turrets, and roast them from behind?"
"Wait... whaaaat? Balless guy's girlfriend escapes in the dinghy, ten seconds later, the boats are destroyed and what's left of the army (read: any prominent character) are all in the water, and she's just mysteriously captured by the bad guys? How the fuck? Why wouldn't she be like 30 feet from all the people in the water, probably trying to pick as many up as possible and loading them into the dinghy? Who the hell captured her, and how did they get there to do so? And why wouldn't they just pick off the rest of the survivors like fish in a barrel while they were there? And... oh, just fuck it."
"So those huge crossbows that were able to hit a moving dragon from like a mile away are lining the castle walls. The dragon is just sitting there on the ground a couple hundred yards from the castle. Killing that dragon wins the war. Probably best to just not shoot at it..."
"And you have a hundred archers lining your castle wall, their army is in tight formation (sitting ducks) right there in range, you've just cut the chick's head off and (re)declared war, so why not follow that with a volley of arrows?"
"Why doesn't she just fly the dragon over on the next moonless night, burn the fuck out of the whole opposing naval fleet, then burn the fuck out of every giant crossbow on the tower walls, then burn the fuck out of the palace in the middle of the castle, where Cercei is staying, then call it a day? I mean, really, why even bring the army along at all? It's clear a pair of dragons is as good as an army if you have the element of surprise, so why not just fly in one night and fuck the whole place up and THEN bring in your army?"
