Why is she the only decent female character in the show?
>>
>>71333603
because she actually has an interesting personality and is extremely well acted
>>
>>71333603
Because she's a no nonsense woman. She doesnt blabber on about shit or act a certain way to gain approval.

Danny is Girl Jesus and Cersei is Girl Hitler.

She's a pretty good villain if you ask me.
>>
>>71333603
because shes smart and shes manipulating guys who rule intead of being a strong independent wymin ruler or a xena style fighter. more realistic, also better actress
>>
>>71333798
Cersei was backed against a corner after losing everything she ever lived for. She always had more personality than most females on the show. Always wanted power but getting cucked and mocked. being arrogant and foolish. shes pretty interesting
>>
>>71334115
This. Why shouldn't she have done what she did? Not exactly her fault Tommen is a cuck.
>>
>>71334004

She weren't suddenly in Mereen, you dumb toadlicker. Margarine warned her to leave King's Landing, so she did. Then Draco Mom and her dickless horsefucker army met up with them vis a vis Bald and Dickless, and they sailed for Westeros together.
>>
>>71334772
in this episode she was laying down and the mountain was torturing her, then 10minutes later she was in the warm desert country (mereen?) ??

What do you mean other than Dany? She is immune to fire and her dragons do what she says (I would consider them lackeys). For the most part she's as helpless as any other bitch who never learned how to fight her own battles.

>>71334115
Cersei has always been an ambitious whore going after as much power as she could get.

Now she's got what she's always wanted and only had to kill off all her kids to get it.
>>
>>71333603
Because she is an old school female ruler who understands how to play to the strengths of women.

She's 70 or 80. Rage is for the young, she probably saw some of it coming anyway.

None of her children died by her will, she was actually trying to save/advance all her children when they each died.

The court that was her enemy, and the priest who was her enemy, and his followers who were her enemies.

Honestly, yes, it's a terrible thing. It's also strategically sound.

I believe it. I would probably root for her, too, if I could get past wanting to slap her smug face every time she's on screen.

Because she's only has 10 minutes of screentime a season. Not enough to make us hate her. It's pretty unrealistic she's even lived that long pissing so many people off.

Did she though? She hasn't personally done anything impressive outside of not die in fires. She mostly just sits on her ass and tells other people what to do, and they do it because they're impressed by the not-dying-in-fires thing.

She's aware of that. She's just past the point of caring in this episode given her family has all been nuked.

Also Dany is a very flawed character but can be done well.

In the most recent episode she's done well, she heeds Tyrion's advice understanding his experience, and shows vulnerability at the same time instead of the huge confidence and borderline perfection in other episodes.

Seriously; Dany could be so much better but she needs more flaws (that aren't portrayed as good by the writers).

The director for the past 2 episodes really knows how to work the material.

But the rose that bloomed and grew stronger than all of them. A man of your caliber did not deserve such a fate.Your flesh may be gone from this world, but your legacy and your spirit shall remain.

In the new age of heroes they shall weave tales of your heroism, my friend. Ser Mace the Gallant. Loving Father, peerless warrior, and stalwart defender. For on the day in our hours most grim, with madness at our gates ready to consume us all, it was you that said the madness had its day. You gave everything for us. You fought. You defended. You won... But nobody could save you from the flames.

I wonder what your last thoughts were. I suppose we'll never know....
