Defend this

>>85224000
The show sucks, beat that defence.

D&D warged into Stannis. He would never do such a thing.

>>85224000
the most disconcerting and 2edgy4me moment in the series imo

>>85224000
I can't. Stannis was always a cunt.

>>85224000
Easy. Stannis did nothing wrong.

DandD are a couple of faggots pissing on a series that's already sodden in piss.

>>85224000

She had to die for Jon to live. Simple.

>>85224000
most of everything after season 5 is fanfiction so no need to defend

>>85224000
>heavily imply in early eps that he would do anything for his daughter, even defy the red lady
>burns her alive lol
how shit is this shit writing?

Does this happen in the books, or was it just put into the show to appease the numale audience?

Stannis did't love her that much.

>>85224000
It was DnD fan fiction. Didn't fucking happen

The magic worked, just not for Stannis

>>85224435
>was it autism
Worse. He got religion.

Where's my fedora? I know I left it around here somewhere.

They thought they were being clever and cool by doing an "Iphigenia"

>>85224162
Actually this.
I was cringing imagining that Dave&Buster were thinking that shocking==GoT (a la Ned's beheading and the red wedding)

>>85224400
in the books Stannis rode out with his army to fight Ramsay and his fate is unknown. He left Shireen at Castle Black so I have no idea how he's gonna return and burn her alive

So when Martin does it it's ok?

>>85224629

wew

wouldn't mind getting greyscale dick for a taste of that

>>85224000
This was some straight up bullshit. Yes, D&D confirmed that Melly burns Shireen in the books. But I'm absolutely certain it doesn't happen under these circumstances and Stannis is not a party to it

>>85224636

Was it?

>>85225076
See >>85225008

We can't know for sure until book 6 is out (lol) but considering Mel and Shireen aren't even with Stannis on his campaign I sincerely doubt it goes down like this.

GoT was about political and personal drama, backstabbing and personalities

now it's about epic dragons and battles

it's like comparing old conan the barbarian with the newer khal drogo spinoff

>>85224400
Not only does it not happen, Stannis is painted as the kind of man who would never do this.

>>85224040

>implying the books are any better

Oh wait, you are a contrarian who only knows the tv show and post just for the (you)

Well welcome to a book readers world, i have waited and been disappointed by each fucking book for years

>>85225513

Depressingly this. Ignore the summer fag....fuck the last two books were painful

>>85224000
She was diseased. Purge the unclean, anon

>>85224453

>20 good men

Every fucking time

>>85224000
If any of my kids had weird skin, I'd murdr them.

>>85225513
The pink mast line is proof of this

>>85224000
Book Stannis is deluded if he thinks anyone would follow a female child infected with a disease that literally degrades your mind until you're a zombie.

Why didn't Stanley knock up his red whore again to have a shadow baby kill Ramsey?

>>85225513
Please dont remind me, the first two books were great, it went downhill from there

Fire + daughter = good

Would've been better if burning her alive actually WORKED, then at least the dynamic of the horror of what he did + the consequences would be more interesting rather than "lol what a religious faggot idiot"

>>85224000

GRRM confirmed the behavior as in character so why are you retreading?

>>85226166

woah

>>85224000
So this was because they had no idea how to kill Stannis right? Stannis was no where near this level of evil when it happened.

>>85225908

he was only """"""kingly"""""" enough to have one shadow baby load in him

>>85224000
He was constantly manipulated by the red woman into thinking that he had to do anything that the lord of light wanted or he would lose.
In other words, brainwashed by religion.

>>85225513
Books 1-3 were pretty good. Red wedding is when GRRM clearly ran out of ideas on how to progress the story. From then on it's just his piss and shit fanfic.

>>85227766
Except there were a couple of them in the book I believe.

Jesus fuck, where do I go to watch this shit?

I'm not coughing up money for a streaming service.

her sacrifice makes it so that Stannis turns into Azor Ahai when Melissandre sacrifices Gendry to summon Stannis in the final season so that he may defeat the Night King with Lightbringer

it's the most pirated show on the planet, figure it out dipshit

>>85224629
I'd cure the grayscale off her face if you know what I mean

>>85224629
Holy FUCK she is HOT

I want to rape her

>>85224000
She was ugly and ugly people don't deserve to live. I was happy when she died because it meant I no longer had to avert my gaze when she had a scene.

>>85224453
Stannis is possibly the best character in the books.

The shit tv show butchered his storyline.

>>85224000
You can't. It was the end of the show. If was on th edge of irrelevance before that, but this sealed it. The way D.B. Weiss "defended" it was the biggest load of horse shit I've ever seen a showrunner deliver. He knows he fucked up bad.

>>85226166
Should have had Jon stabbed by random nights watch fuckers (and Bowen Marsh or whoever the fuck that guy was that did it in the books) and the fucking boy who kills Ygritte and Thorne freaks the fuck out the moment Jon is found lying dead.

Thorne wasn't a complete cunt until the moment DABID AND DANYEUL decided to have a recognizable face to kill Jon.

Thorne was a cunt to your face, not a backstabber.

>>85225513
i never said the books were better, they both suck and were never good. GRRM is a piece of shit hack whose entire premise is "muh medieval politics" the only thing i ever enjoyed about the books was his food descriptions (of course, the fat fuck)

They made him a villain, D&D are major Dannyfag's, made her a Mary Sue, and give us less and less options to root for

>>85224000
Well she wasn't that pretty to begin with anyway

You could make the same comparison for book Blackfish vs TV Blackfish.

Book Blackfish is absolutely based.

>>85225513
>>implying the books are any better
They're not

>>85232972
True enough, but he wasnt nearly as prominent a player

Imo, theyve also given short shrift to Jamie's character rehabilitation as compared to the books.

>>85224453
there was more to it than the "20 good men".

There was a spy in Stannis' camp. If you pay attention you will notice it, there is a guy that says "there isn't going to be a siege" who is a traitor in retrospect.

This is how they got the "20 good men" inside the camp etc, they had a spy from the start. No wonder Stannis lost that battle.

>>85233233

he says there isn't going to be a siege because Bolton's army is charging at them within eyesight of Stannis' men at that very moment

Are they actually retarded?

>>85224000
does anyone have the webm of t he loli being burned alive?

>>85233405
If you watch the episodes leading up again you will see he is suspicious at other moments. Also note when he says that line he is calm and he deserts Stannis then rather than stand by him.

He was a spy who sold Stannis out.

>>85233918
either way, its still retarded D&D showrunning
