GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

I have no criticism of Emilia herself but itd be swell if the makeup artists had taken a moment to look at an actual blond person prior to dying her hair.

Every scene shes in I'm like "why are there two giant black hairy caterpillars where her eyebrows should be?"

To be clear this is not a sharp elbow moment; shes obviously hot as fuck; its a criticism that they couldnt bothe rto cast an actual blond or do a convincing dye job. Just example #4,238 of Hollywood forgetting that the most important decision in casting is physical appearance.

Yara was merged with Victarion who does go to Dany. In the book she is even more girl power by taking part of the north for a time. The rest is in the unpublished next book with Sansa likely being another merged character. They did character merges to give underused characters something to do. You retard.

You misspelled "obvious, inarguable, and correct".

yes, but it backs up my point that they made yara go there to go along with their season long theme of strong women leaders.

that's an agreeable point. i don't think it was hamfisted or SJWish or anything tho.

i never said it was sjw. this show is very non pc, but they did go overboard with the strong females thing. it irked me how ridiculous they changed characters archs to achieve it.

The "strong female thing" is undermined a little bit by the circumstances for each one though. Dany still needs Tyrion and Varys as advisors (with Barristan before that, not to mention 3 fucking dragons), and still has a soft spot for Ser Friendzone. Cersei needs Undead Mountain to enforce her will, and Qyburn to do all the rest of the dirty work (not to mention Jaime standing behind her, getting Riverrun back for them). Perhaps their intention was to make the Sand Snakes seem all strong females, but their depiction in the fight seen was horrific, and they just seem this separate entity that Varys essentially is like "ally with the person I'm advising, and we'll win". Yara still keeps Theon around, and needed him to support her claim to the Salt Throne...which she still lost to her uncle. Sansa still comes off as Littlefinger's protege, and it's not her that's the King of the North and super obvious chosen one...it's Jon.

About the only real female rocking bells all on her own is Lady Mormont.
