Can someone explain to me how Whore Cersei got away with blowing up The Sept of Baelor, the holiest site in the Seven Kingdoms, and noone cared? Cersei basically nuked the mecca of the Seven, and noone even lifted a finger....Are we supposed to believe that in all of Kings Landing and the surrounding area, there was noone pious enough to give a damn?how did she get away with it?
>>71383437
She didn't get away with it.
The Highgarden remembers
>>71383437
The same way Ellaria got away with killing Doran in front of everybody. Weak men will not rule Westeros ever again.
>>71383437
She get awat like Olenna get away to kill all remained of the House Martell.
STRONG INDEPENDANT WOMYN!!!
>>71383437
A rational actor would consider the consequences of blowing up the High Septon, the Hand of the King, the Queen, the Queen's family, etc. and probably not do it.
Cersei did it anyways, the absolute madwoman
So what would keep her from doing something even worse to you?
>how did a bloodthirsty lunatic with the most dangerous non-dragon superweapon and a shitload of armed guards manage to convince a crippled city not to interfere in her crowning
iunno
>>71383528
You missed the point of my question, Zealots dont think like that. USA has the most nukes and largest army in history and terrorists still try to fight it. Fanatics wouldnt care that Cersei has a KG or a wildfire.
>>71383528
>most dangerous non-dragon superweapon
She can only use it inside the city. HER CITY. KILLING HER PEOPLE. Who can be stupid enough to support her anymore? She will never unite the seven kingdoms and everybody knows it. It's over.
>>71383586
>USA has the most nukes and largest army in history and terrorists still try to fight it
>TRY
Did you want a scene of Flea Bottomers in balaclavas chucking pipe bombs at the gate, hopelessly missing Cersei because heads of state are really fucking hard to get access to?
>>71383586
She blew up most of the the zealots, and all of their leaders
>>71383656
Did a better job than the americans
WE
HAVE
TO
LEAVE
>>71383638
pretty sure hes talking about zombieman
>>71383526
My Big Cock
>>71383638
Of course she won't, but she is Queen Regent now. Rebeling against the crown is treason
She killed her uncle too, right? Who was the head Lanister? I get that the Lanisters are the only ones left in Kings Landing, but they should be pissed off at her too because of that.
>>71383798
>Queen Regent
I think being "regent" is something implying it exist a heir still too young to be named king. She's actually "Queen" now. Probably the first because of the male primogeniture rule, rule she's clearly breaking.
>>71383865
Nobody knows she did it though. She just could say "lol sorry I slept in oh wow it sure is a shame that extremely explosive shit we kept under the city finally blew up"
This is Cersei's 9/11 false flag
>>71383455
>the oldest one outlived them all
;_;
>>71383586
If USA decided to nuke Mecca, and the slaughter all the Muslims in the US to keep them from retaliating, guess what - it'd just be the Muslims dying. I guess they could take hostage some of the American abroad and then kill them, but do you think Hillary, I mean Cersei would give a shit?
Why did that lad lead that guy right into the place where all the wildfire was? Seems like a risky strategy that could have been easily avoided by not literally leading him down there on purpose.
Killing Margaery was just full retard, her marriage was needed for Tyrell swords
>>71383751
To be honeset, zombieman would burn to the ashes like everything in the wildfire. And probably to normal fire too because I don't think he's resistant to everything, right?
>>71383798
She's actually just Queen now since the legitimate royal line died out and she usurped the throne.
I doubt they liked it, but what the fuck are they gonna do?
>>71383437
Few people actually know about the wildfire caches. Little finger is probably the real threat there. Likely he will bring the whole queen cersei thing crashing down. With Ramsey gone he is set to be the next Ramsey/Joffrey style psychopath.
So yeah. Fingerbowl confirmed.
>>71383437
She blew up everyone who'd take offence to it. Who is going to rally against her in the city? the poor and starving peasants who if lucky could get their hands on a rock for a weapon. She has the last of the lannister forces, a zombie and little competition left in the city. She did ruin things for herself though. She got the throne, no family, no friends, no allies. She's fucked.
>>71383437
How many episodes until Jaime strangles The Mad Queen?
>valonquar
>>71383980
lord and light are the same words in valyrian to gold and hand.
Do you think rulers usually get overthrown on the same day they do something people don't like?
The point is that everyone is scared shitless of her
>>71383980
>Jaime kills Cersei
>becomes king since he's her closest living relative
King Jaime confirmed!
Get hype!
>>71384001
I don't think she was crowned the same day she blowed the Sept.
>>71384014
Jaime isnt a Baratheon
>>71384014
Please stop, my penis can only get so erect
>>71383929
The season has showed that Tyrells just aint going to be commanded by Cersei. To her, Tyrell swords are useless.
>>71384033
She was wearing the same dress.
And she would have wanted to be established as the new ruler as soon as possible.
Was Loras Tyrell the most useless character in the entire show? He didn't do ANYTHING in 6 seasons except taking a dick up the arse.
>>71384039
Cerseis claim comes from an old ass Lannister/Baratheon marriage afaik
Cersei will be either killed by dragonfire when Dany attacks
OR
people of Kings Landing will storm the Red Keep and kill her because they will starve to death now that Tyrells are no longer supplying wheat and grain.
>>71384095
Jaime will kill the Mad Queen, just as he did the Mad King.
>he's the true hero of westeros
>>71383437
>how did she get away with it?
Who knows she has anything to do with it?
No one.
>>71384076
He convinced Renly to be RIGHTFUL HOMOSEXUAL KING instead of that EVIL HOMOPHOBE Stannis
>>71383437
Who is left to care? She killed the entirety of the aristocracy and faith. Also, the commoners don't know that she had anything to do with it. All they saw was the sept explode.
>>71384063
Really? So you think the same day her son kill himself, she would dare to claim to be the queen now?
>>71384076
Yeah, kinda. Thanks D&D.
>>71383896
There's still the crippled brother Willas.
>>71384118
Yes, Yes Cersei, Well done.
HOWEVER
It's magic dude.
>>71384118
>Who knows she has anything to do with it?
Eveybody with a working brain, I guess?
>>71384130
this. Now they'd probably think theres wildfire underneath kings landing and want to leave.
>>71384076
He was in the jousting tourney, remember, like five years ago.
In the books he does a lot more stuff and gets into a lot more fights, ends up getting burned half to death by burning oil taking a castle.
>>71384076
He fought at the Blackwater, joined the Kingsguard after Renly's death, and then took the fortress of Dragonstone from Stannis' forces where he got badly wounded.
Wait no, that's in the books.
>>71384146
Has he been mentioned on the show? I feel like he was at some point seasons ago
>>71384146
Willas is the oldest son & the heir to highgarden
>but he's one of the countless 2nd tier book characters erased from the show
>>71384134
How do you think succession works? There can't be a time without a ruler, and she has to make sure no one has time to contest. Don't remember what happened when Robert died?
>>71384146
I dont think he exists in the HBO family tree?
>>71384200
>How do you think succession works?
STRONG WOMEN SUCCEED
WEAK MEN FAIL
>>71384174
>>71384076
I got into an argument on ASOIAF.org where I said that Loras really got burned pretty badly and he wasn't scheming.
The fangirls got pretty butthurt at that.
Everyone in Kings Landing is just humoring Cersei since word has probably gotten to them that Daenerys is coming with her massive army and dragons and is waiting for her to deal with it.
>>71384165
They have circumstantial evidence. That's all.
She's the Queen, she will blame it on terrorists and no one will dare suggest she had anything to do with it. Especially since she was confined to house arrest and he son died as well. It would happen exactly like this in real life, people would have conspiracy theories and medieval Alex Jones would pass out some flyers on pigskin saying "CERSEI DID SEPT BOMBING" but no one would do anything. Everyone would just talk about it for a while then go on with their lives and jobs.
>>71384076
I know SJWs don't actually read the books and just complain about women being raped in the series instead, but I always find it weird how there's no backlash for how much they decimated Loras. He went from a chivalrous young knight who's heartbroken by Renly's death and swears revenge against Stannis to a manwhore who sleeps with twinks as soon as Renly's in the ground then does fuck all for the rest of the series. Loras is actually a good gay character and they completely fucked him.
>>71383437
Shock and awe I guess.
Sometimes the most insane acts work in the short term at least. She is doomed though now in the long run.
>>71383437
>>71384220
To be honest I'd let Darth Cersei destroy my boipussy with her Valyrian steel strapon, so I can understand the people of King's Landing.
>>71384265
>good gay character
For TV, good gay characters are the ones fucking and being fucked because "gay = gay sex". Strangely enough, it's not an obligation for good heterosexual characters to have sex in the sight of spectators.
>>71384260
she pulled a Red wedding 2: Electric boogaloo. The freys became hated and slowly begin to get their legs cut off because of the red wedding, even though they had circumstantial evidence against them.
Cersei blew up the center of the Faith in a city that is increasingly being filled with zealots and killed off the nobility of the Reach. She is fucked hard
>>71384324
If you scum could look past her dominatrix outfit, she literally looked disgusting yesterday. The ugliest I have seen her in years. How the fuck can anyone think this sexy?
>>71383455
Do you really have over 2000 pic of highgarden?
>>71384168
>burned half to death by burning oil taking a castle
lolololo, I bet you think Quentyn's dead too.
>>71384374
I must admit, she look manly with that haircut.
Can someone explain to me how Bin Laden got away with blowing WTC towers? No one even lifted a finger... are we supposed to believe that in Afganistan noone was American enough to give a fuck?
>>71384370
Everyone knew the Freys did it. It wasn't a secret. They bragged about it.
No one knows for sure she did it. All they have is suspicions because she benefited. No one has any proof. She will blame it on terrorism by either Dany or the Starks.
>>71384168
>Burned half to death
>Cersei's plan of getting him killed of actually working
Wew lad, you must think Qyburn is actually loyal to Cersei and not a Dornish spy too hahaha.
>>71384451
Nice
>tfw Qyburn raises A CITADEL OF HELLISH FIRE from the ashes of the Sept
>tfw the climax of the series is Wrath of the Lich King vs Warlords of Draenor
>>71384460
It was a open secret. The freys say that they did it because Robb dishonored them and they were being laughed at.
Cersei doesn't go to the sept the day it blows up, kills anyone who was against her, has her son die in suspicious circumstances and crowns herself queen. A blind dude can see that she grabbed power in the flashiest way possible.
There may be some peasants screaming false flag but she'll blame it easily on dornishmen.
WILD FIRE CAN'T MELT STONE BEAM
>>71384460
>She will blame it on terrorism by either Dany or the Starks.
Sound retarded, but Cersei is going full retard so I guess you're right.
>>71384146
He doesn't exist in the show.
>>71384374
She looks 11/10 you homo.
>>71383437
The real question is WAS THIS PURE KINO AND WE ARE ALL A "DUDE FEMINISM LMAO" BUNCH OF RETARDS?
>>71384556
but all my reaction pics are useless now
>>71384014
Jaime is the son of the mad king. And the mad queen well. That doesn't require an explanation as to why she is the mad kings daughter.
Aerys married Rhaegars mother due to prophecy and only loved one person in his lifetime. Joanna lannister.
the words lord and light are the same word as gold and hand in high valyrian.
jaime is also called kingslayer as forshadowing. He'll be king who slays the ice brandon / reincarnated ice dragon with brans soul controlling it like drogo with drogon.
The guy has a golden hand for fucks sake. You may aswell tattoo king on his forehead but still normies would claim him to be tywins son.
>>71384374
Nah, the manliness suits her, it just makes her even hotter.
>>71384610
fuck off hillary is Dany
Cersei is GOD TIER
>>71384661
jaime was the youngest kings guard ever in history because he was such a great swordsman. it was only after becoming kingsguard was he trained by ser arthur.
has the same mystery conception as king arthur does. jaime wants to be the second arthur dayne. aerys wanted him close as it was his bastard son of the woman he only ever loved.
And the man who doesn't want the throne will obviously sit on it.
>>71384661
>>71384014
>>71384113
Worst fanfic I've ever read, stop it already.
>>71384708
He only fucked wed rhaegars mother due to stupid family prophecy. But Joanna was his girl.
>>71384659
Pull it together Highgarden. If stannisfags can shitpost for years after his death so can you.
>>71384731
Well meme'd, but Stannis clearly isn't dead though.
>>71383437
You mean, aside from being at war Dorne and Tyrells?
>>71384717
Someone should read the books. It's the most obvious thing of the story. More so than Jons parentage.
Jaime and cercei are the two sides of the coin the gods flip when siring a targaryen.
>>71383437
>noone cared
>3 kingdoms are set to leave the Iron Throne and support Dany now
u wot mate
>>71384374
Wow, I thought Bruce Lee was dead.
>>71383507
This.
>>71384146
not in the show
>>71384731
The /Highgarden/ remembersbut I have no interest in the show anymore, thank god there are 13 episodes left
>>71384758
They have way too much in common with Tywin. And in any case, even if that was true, Jaime becoming king is cringiest fanfic and will never happen.
>>71384758
It also makes both tyrion and jaime, kingslayers, kinslayers etc he refused to put the two kids of rhaegar on the throne because of the mad kings madness. Ironically he put two more of the mad kings grandchildren on the throne.
Its obvious jaime is the gold dragon in the prophecy thing about dragons young and old, bright and gold, black and red etc nonsense.
>>71383437
>mfw Golden Company lands next season and fucks everyone's shit up
S-shut up, it can still happen.
>>71383437
>how did she get away with it?
She won't though.
She's completely screwed at this point and has no chance of controlling the entire kingdom.
>>71383898
Yeah, Islamic extremists have never been successful in killing Americans.
>>71384047
>your sister did some you broke the most sacred oath imaginable to prevent last king from doing
Must feel like shit being Jaime right now.
>>71384794
false genna lannister said specifcally to jaime and references she said the same to tywin and he refused to speak to her for a year straight over telling him that tyrion is his true son and jaime isnt.
its just coincidence the mad queen continues the mad kings wildfyre plot. Or its just coincidence that the show references cerceis appetites for family as a family traight. One of the first lines jaime says when talking to tyrion.
It's the most obvious thing in the series and anyone who denies is a flat out retard.
>>71384787
>>71384839
Isn't Littlefinger lord of the Riverlands? Or was that skipped in the show?
>>71384815
well something has to happen
there's 2 seasons left and dany is already half way to westeros
white walkers cant take a whole season
>>71384265
Book Loras was pretty cool and DnD shit on him. In the books he's basically a young Jaime as noted by Jaime himself. Sure he was arrogant and cocky but Jaime saw that Loras and Balon Swann were the only knights worth a damn in the Kingsguard and he sort of filled a mentor role for him to make sure that he wouldn't follow the same route that he did and would be a good man and a good knight.
>>71383927
it was a plot device and kids are terrible at that shit
>>71384852
Whatever, it's just autism and Jaime will never be king because that doesn't fit his character or story arc at all.
>>71384867
I think they skipped it or gave it to Walder Frey.
Riverlands are probably just in complete anarchy by now.
>>71384708
he was only made kingsguard because Aerys wanted to make tywin butthurt.
>>71383927
Who cares? At least that fucking kid was killed by the explosion.
Fuck kids. Little birds? More like little shits!
>>71384851
She just killed a bunch of dangerous fanatics and enemy houses, why should he give a shit?
The only bad part of this is their retard son killing himself like a little bitch, but that's hardly Cersei's fault.
>>71384787
>hank god there are 13 episodes left
So next season will be the final season?
>>71383437
>You dissapoint me Cersei.
>>71384923
No, there's at least two more seasons.
>>71384794
Jaime will never be king but I do think he will sit the iron throne one last time after he kills Cersei and he waits for someone to come take it like he did the last time he killed a mad regent. Though this time he will obviously be distraught and a broken man after killing Cersei or perhaps he will take a mortal wound and lay dying slumped in the iron throne.
>>71384923
Next season is 7 eps
Season 8 is 6 eps and probably final
>>71384787
Wait. You had interest in the show?
Its been a shitty fanfic for years.
>>71384967
Will they still have a year between each other?
>>71383638
Stop mansplaining against the queen you misogynist pig
>>71384985
I think so
>>71384888
It fits his arc perfectly. Like I said you should read the books because the twins being the children to Aerys is the most obvious thing about the series.
>>71384970
they expanded Margaery a lot on the show though compared to the books
How can Wildfire melt Stone walls?
>>71384991
I am triggered even thinking about what that white male typed. The mods really need to more to ensure that /tv/ remains a safespace
>>71385017
Nobody cares, he will never be king, fuck off you autist.
>>71384970
More criminal mastermind waifu.
>>71384967
Well that explains why more happened in season finale than it did in pretty much entire season itself.
>>71385037
He'll be king. He wont rule the realm but he'll die killing bran who is inside the ice dragon like drogo/drogon.
He'll have the shortest reign and die slaying a beast of mythic proportions.
It starts with jaime and Bran and ends with Jaime and bran.
>>71385040
Maybe she'll do more Elementary now
>>71384869
>white walkers cant take a whole season
I have a feeling that's exactly what's going to happen and I'll be disappointed as fuck when entire Seven Kingdoms situation gets resolved in one season after such a buildup. You know beyond the wall is basically the end game.
>>71385073
she's too famous for that shit show now
>>71385072
They introduced him on the throne as a child and as the king slayer with larger intent.
The most beautiful princess in the world...
>>71384190
I believe they referred to Legolas as the heir a couple times this season, so I'd say he didn't exist in the show.
Why did they kill phycelle? He a true lannister nigga
>>71384014
Jaime is gonna kill cersei and himself because he knows he can't live without her. Screencapsulate this.
>>71385103
Kek what, as far as I know it's pretty popular and going into its 5th season.
Surely she'll be on it again at some point.
>>71385103
You'd be surprised how modest and down to earth she still is. I'm 90% sure she'll do more Elementary.
You don't think they'll revolt s07e01?
It's going to go crazy and she's going to get even crazier trying to control it.
>>71384146
What the fuck is it with cripples and these books?
>>71385162
I don't get this either. I get he was on the Tommen's council, but I thought Pycelle was willing to play ball with whoever was in power. He never really got to show off his intelligence. His only other scene was farting.
And his death was weird. It felt personal, but also brutal and unnecessary.
>>71385179
Noice, every time Cersei goes more insane and kills more people my dick gets harder.
>>71385217
Of course it was personal, the murder of the Tyrells was also personal. Pycelle was a direct threat to Qyburn and he openly antagonized him.
>>71385217
Probably the actor just isn't returning for next season for some reason.
>>71385150
I thought Olenna and Marg talked of some other male Tyrell to Sansa when they were trying to get her to marry him. Olenna said he was a crippled fool or something so it had to be Willas.
since like 3 seasons ago, the show got way too people for its own good, now the writers just dont even bother with consistency or coherency with plot lines or logical/logistic thoroughness
the biggest offender is ramsey snow pulling a huge army big enough to topple the seven kingdoms, out of his ass, last minute, from a castle thats barely got enough room to house a company of troops
now, its the magical entire fleet of ships that disappears overnight due to a single fire, then magically another scenario presents itself where a huge armada of ships appears and they take it over with some piddly retarded scene of feminist bullshit
it just keeps piling up, and its retarded, to have various characters magically get huge armadas overnight, huge armies, in the space of a few episodes, and some characters have to literally spent entire seasons rallying troops, i think this is like the .. what? 2nd or 3rd season now that jon snow has been trying to gather troops?
just accept the show has become too popular for its own good, accept, that there will be retarded SJW as fuck feminist bullshit scenes, where literally every depiction of power is that of a woman
show used to be fucking amazing, now its just lazy bullshit trying to grab for emmys and mass appeal
>>71383437
>noone cared?
No one cared. Alternatively, no-one cared.
>>71385217
Qyburn wanted him out of the way, that's enough. He also seems to want to maintain the status quo, so he could have switched over to any side, he wasn't necessarily loyal to just the Lannisters. It made sense they get rid of him, the way they got rid of him was really strange and unnecessarily brutal though.
>>71383437
CNN helped her blame it on sand people
>>71383437
very easy cercei has the power and the army she killed a lot of peasants and the sept with all the faith and mayority of armed people of the faith now the city is in chaos and fear the noblesse of kings landing never gave a fuck about the common people so they let cercei roll and the mayority of the city poor common people dont have weapons against an army wtf can do against that
>>71385330
That was in the books
>>71385357
>the biggest offender is ramsey snow pulling a huge army big enough to topple the seven kingdoms, out of his ass, last minute, from a castle thats barely got enough room to house a company of troops
The show did a bad job with this but Winterfell was supposed to be fucking huge, certainly enough to hold army. In their defense it might be hard to really show that, realistically.
My book memory is hazy but didn't Winterfell even include something like a little town inside of it?
>>71383437
>noone
>noone
>noone
>noone
>>71385357
To be fair, each episode takes place over like a month. Even so, it feels very rushed, especially with characters jumping around the world from one episode to the next.
Like, is Dany going to arrive in Westeros in the very first episode of the next season? Or is she going to be on a boat for five episodes? No way to gauge.
>>71384958
>Jaime will never be king but I do think he will sit the iron throne one last time after he kills Cersei and he waits for someone to come take it like he did the last time he killed a mad regent
2 seasons from now dany busts in jamie sighs gets of his ass kills her and sits back down
>>71385457
The show really fucked up time continuity. It's all over the place now.
The Tyrells are stupid as fuck for having their whole family still in the capital for all that time after killing Joffrey.
>>71385408
I could have sworn he was mentioned on the show, but isn't he also in the HBO family tree?
>>71383437
>Can someone explain to me how Whore Cersei got away with blowing up The Sept of Baelo
We need proofs for that you peasant
Also I hate that show is setting up the Lanisters or Cersi as the villains
fuck that I want everyone to be a villain to each other
its so uninteresting now
>>71385488
Nobody knew they killed Joff. Everyone blamed Tyrion and Sansa.
What didn't make sense was why the Sparrows kept Marg and everyone else from leaving. They weren't prisoners anymore.
>>71385581
Nope, he's completely cut from the show
>>71385604
I assume because she was trying to take Lawrence who was theirs now.
Or maybe they wanted everyone to stay until the trial was over. Like the Sparrow said, he would try Cersei whether she was in attendance or not so they still had that to do.
>>71385604
she brought disorder and was ranting and raving, getting the people scared and riled up.
>>71385650
Then yes, keeping Loras makes sense, but the sparrows weren't letting anyone, especially the Tyrells, leave. And Marg wouldn't be forced to sit for Cersei's trial either. It just makes no sense all around.
>>71384921
She made a relatively powerful and safe city (by GoT standards) a complete field of ruins.
If the human race doesn't get extinct after the show (I can see this happen really, either white walkers win or they defeat WW only to kill themselves at the end, with the remaining humans dying of starvation, cold, and simply low numbers), then Highgarden will be capital city of the Seven Kingdoms and Castraly Roc will be razed to the ground.
>>71383437
Smirkfufags on suicide watch
>>71385714
The white walkers will win and take over that continent; end of GoT.
Then a spin-off show starts and it's dirty humans from beyond the sea trying to conquer the white-walkers and take their jobs.
>>71384867
I think Walder Frey is lord of the riverlands by royal decree.
>>71384921
Not everyone can be as edgy as you.
Queenslayer when?
>>71385714
Yeah but she did it out of incompetence, not evilness, and that was when she allowed the faith militant to arm and gave them all this power. Since then she's done nothing wrong.
>>71385604
They were exercising their power. The trial of Cersei was supposed to be the solidification of the rule of the sparrows. They needed everyone to 'bear witness' to what they were doing.
>>71385777
We're talking about a guy who murdered his young cousin with his bare hands in the hopes it might cause a distraction.
>>71384851
Jaime is going to strangle Cersei to death. It was foretold by that witch.
>>71385745
Maybe that was because Ned was truly a shitty player, but it baffles me how Cersi went from "Can handle herself" to "What is the worse decision I could do today ?"
Is it bad advice ? Is it her emotions making her impotent ? Is it just dictated by the plot ?
>>71385745
I think it would be better if the WW are casted out but human race dies anyway due to the consequences of the war.
>>71385714
>moving the capital
Not going to happen, especially if a Targaryan is king/queen. Their not going to abandon KL just because it's a bit ruined.
>>71385604
The High Sparrow thought he was getting tricked.
>>71385962
they abandoned old town.
>>71383437
I can explain.
Shark Jumping.
>>71385962
Old town was once the capital..dipshit.
>>71385994
>>71385994
>>71386018
No it wasn't.
It was the biggest city before prior to Aegon invading but he never made it capitol.
Dragonstone was the capital before he constructed the Red Keep.
The only importance Old Town had was as the seat of the Faith which then moved to King's Landing.
>>71383528
It doesn't work like that. In a feudal society everything is based on trust. The peasants accept their rulers because in return the ruler keeps them safe.
If the ruler just blows up the holiest building in all of the kingdoms killing not just a bunch of zealots but many ordinary people then the people will revolt. No matter that the ruler has superweapons and shitload of guards.
Peasant uprising throughout history revolted against much greater odds and yes for a lot of time they failed. But there would be one.
In got they just roll over and accept everything. The whole point of Tommen accepting the zealots was that people wouldn't revolt that way. You can hate Tommen all you want but it was a clever move the only problem was that he wasn't a strong leader and could be easily manipulated.
Cercei wouldn't have lived a single day if this pile of trash was remotely true to itself.
>>71385949
>, but it baffles me how Cersi went from "Can handle herself" to "What is the worse decision I could do today ?"
It's not her, this is really the best the writers can do.
They're very good you know. This show is so popular, and people keep talking about how it's gotten much better this season. The writers used to write movies and everything.
>>71386181
At least in the books her shift was more gradual, or so I thought.
>>71384923
It's final season parts 1 & 2
>>71386172
>Cercei wouldn't have lived a single day if this pile of trash was remotely true to itself.
Aside from the brotherhood, there is literally no proof of peasants revolting ever.
>>71386172
This.
>>71386220
>there is literally no proof of peasants revolting ever.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RO7uISJ7xM
>>71386220
Yes there is. In season 2 people revolted because of food shortage and tried to kill Joffrey. Now imagine if famine does that then blowing up the Sept would cause how much anger.
>>71386263
That scene only exists because they needed someway to do bad things to joffrey. That's all.
>>71383776
Euron trump is gonna make wall stronger than ever before and throw the wildlings to the walkers. MAKE WESTEROS GREAT AGAIN
>>71386172
The rise of the Sparrows was due to this lack of trust. Cersei took care of the problem.
It will take some time for a coherent opposition to form again.
>>71386298
>Cersei took care of the problem.
Not really. The REAL problem was not the Sparrows, it was the "lack of trust" between the rulers and the people. She only makes it worst.
BYE WHORE
>>71386342
I agree that she treated the symptoms and not the cause, but who can blame her.
The peasants were pretty hyped by the High Sparrow - seeing him destroyed is going to reduce their enthusiasm I'd guess. Also, in history peasants revolted much more due to shortage of food than anything else.
>>71386298
The High Sparrow stated to Jaime that it doesn't matter if he kills him because the sparrows are operating by themselves. Sure he is the leader but the whole point of his ideology that anyone can be.
The sparrows' rise was due to lack of trust then blowing up the sept would have caused a bigger uprising.
It's:
the nobility are corrupted vs. the ruler literally butchers her own people because she wouldn't stand trial for being corrupted
People would literally stop paying taxes, there would be thievery, murder, rape all across the city because they would think the rules are nothing now. And if the guards would try to stop them they would revolt, yes.
>>71386434
>Also, in history peasants revolted much more due to shortage of food than anything else.
Well, that funny because...
>After having caused famine in King's Landing by closing the roseroad while supporting Renly, the Tyrells send carts of food from Higharden to the royal capital and are thus beloved by the Kingslanders.
Sound like she can say bye bye to the food support again from the Reach. Cersei is really a genius.
>>71386298
>>71386342
Maegor the cruel ended the sparrows. A hardcore Tyrant. Cercei helped revive them under the impression she could control them. I don't know if you can argue her knowing the history of the group etc.
She brought an end to something she helped create and only caused more damage to the family. All for the sake of vengeance against marg because of prophecy her being dethroned by a younger more beautiful queen who'll take everything from her.
cercei is a tard.
>>71386441
To be honest, we are assuming that shit isn't about to go down in the next season. We don't know how many days it took between the explosion and the corronation, maybe it was even on the same day.
>>71384014
>Jaime Rules the Seven Kingdoms
>Sansa Betrays Jon and Kills him to quire the North
>Jaime Marries Sansa
>CIA gets harenhal and marries Arya.
This is the purest ending possible. Fuck off Danyfags.
>>71386546
This.
It's also winter now. Even with Highgarden's support it would be a tough situation to maintain peace in the kingdom.
There is literally no way that there is no uprising against Cercei. It's just not possible no matter what superweapon she has she doesn't have endless quantity of guards and weapons.
>>71385682
It's probably him being a control freak.
They've been his bitches for so long that he can't allow one to show Independant thought by leaving
>>71386546
Nice catch. Yes, she is pretty fucked at this point.
>>71386441
It was part of his act, I believe. He was twisted and smart, he will be hard to replace.
>>71386554
No denying it. But she might enjoy sweet weeks on the Thrones blowing up the city part by part until Dany shows up.
>>71384265
>He went from a chivalrous young knight who's heartbroken by Renly's death and swears revenge against Stannis to a manwhore who sleeps with twinks as soon as Renly's in the ground
They made him morerealistic
>>71386605
Well yes that's true. Time is portrayed in a very weird way in got - thus the seeming teleportation of characters.
I just guessed that the King's Landing happening and Riverland is alligned so Jaime would have travelled days to return and the bombing happened before he started riding.
Yeah it's pretty retarded that shit didn't hit the fan in King's Landing after that. Maybe everyone is spooped that she'd blow the whole thing up if they did anything though.
It'll begin making negative sense once S7E1 rolls in and we see lords outside of the north/reach/dorne recognizing Cersei as their queen.
>>71384870
Balon Swann vs Areo Hotah when?
>>71383437
because unlike today there is no media to cover the event and people don't know what the fuck happened, if they had something like CAWWTTER then MAYBE the people would have taken up arms more readily.
It's not a question of how no one can bat their eye at cersei blowing it up because that's the dramatic irony. Only a few people actually know and a few may guess but don't know
The real question is how could she have pulled that off? Those kids? Come on. You're trusting the biggest secret if all time with children? All of which you had to convince to both set and execute without any slip ups. Kids talk shit all the time. They were also convinced to stab an old man. How? Because qyburn promised them candy. Give me a break
>>71384374
I bet you kiss girls, faggot!
>>71386884
there isn't exactly anyone to do anything about it as they are all dead and the people who may feel pissed are already her enemies.
the last of her families allies were the tyrells.
Who else is there really? minor houses and peasants.
yes she took out her enemies, took the throne etc but people aren't mentioning at what cost. She pretty much has enemies from all sides other then the westerlands now.
I'm more confused how the fuck she became a queen.
She's the queen mother, she has pretty much no claim to the throne. Especially enough claim to just pop on up there like nothing special is going on.
It's like one second GoT is feudal with powerful lords that can turn on you any minute, the next it's some sort of modern dictatorship where there is no sizable opposition.
>>71386840
In feudal times the media was word of mouth. And it's even more dangerous in ways than today's media because the story would gone worse by it arrives for example to the riverlands.
It could go from
>Cercei Lannister now the Queen blew up the Sept
to
>The Mad Queen used evil magic to summon green flames and hellhounds to butcher her own people just because she wants to fuck her brother.
>>71384921
This isn't some kind of hood nigger shit. There are great consequences for what she has done.
>>71386840
>and people don't know what the fuck happened
Actually you're wrong. Everybody in KL know about the trial, it was annouced for weeks and Cersei never went to the Sept before the place is busting with wildfire, killing all her opponents. It's like she's screaming in the streets "I DID IT!".
![tumblr_inline_nq0eazXbAp1qdrjot_500[1].gif](https://i.imgur.com/DFRX0uN.gif "tumblr_inline_nq0eazXbAp1qdrjot_500[1].gif")
>>71383437
and how did Cercei captured the septe who should always be with Margeary?
>>71386981
Implying there is anyone left who isn't already an enemy. the thing your missing is the tyrells were the last of her allies. Who's left to tell her otherwise? the north? stormlands? riverlands? the reach? dorne? iron islands? who the fuck is left that doesn't already hate her.
I think the point of her gambit was that yes she's back on the throne. But an entire realm stacked against her. Tommen wasn't left with any options other than to jump.
>>71386994
>>The Mad Queen used evil magic to summon green flames and hellhounds to butcher her own people just because she wants to fuck her brother.
Well, that's pretty much the truth.
>>71386981
Because everyone else is either dead or gone and her son didn't leave any heirs.
>>71387065
The people here are fucking retarded.
>>71387098
You need to explain yourself. I'm not even sure who you're calling "retarded".
>>71387065
>>71387076
It's more about the fact that she got onto the throne in the first place.
The royal court is a mixing pot of lords from all across the land. A few must have gone "yeah doll, that's not how it works you know". If everyone was against her and the Lannisters then there would be no kingdoms. Feudal kings were pretty much ruled by the whims of the people under them. If everyone hated them they would have no money, no troops, and no power.
I don't know what the fuck all the other lords are doing but they seem really fucking stupid if they can't topple a ruler everyone hates.
A feudal kings without the support of the lords is nothing.
>>71383437
We were shown 10 seconds of her sitting on the throne. For all we know, she made it through for a few hours. A rioting mob could be killing her the next day.
Of course knowing D&D nobody is going to do jack shit to her, but as far as the story goes, she didn't get away with it yet.
>>71383776
there wasn't nearly enough Euron this season. I like the guy who's playing him
>>71384610
CERSEI IS NOT HILLARY REEEE
>>71384146
>There's still the crippled brother Willas.
CUT
Why didn't they just use the armies to shut the high septon? I understand they sort of look again at their plan when Tommen allies with the septon, but why not just shut the faith down anyway?
They keep telling how naive people are all along the show and that true "players" like the lannisters or the Highgarden grandma don't hesitate to do what it takes, but somehow they don't do shit when they actually can. I think this is terrible writing as it would be more credible than "oops I burnt everybody".
>>71387197
Who the hell is gonna do shit to her? Most people against her were killed in the Septon bombing and no way starving unharmed peasants are going through the troops
Cersei is indeed fucked in the long run since she has no allies anymore. By Danenery's army or Jaime's hand she's going to die
>>71383507
Olenna got away because she was told to leave before the trial, and she didn't have a reason to stay (she thought Margaery might actually believe what she was saying, but that paper with the rose on it said otherwise).
Had nothing to do with strong independent women.
Why don't they just smelt the valeryan swords and use the valeryan steel to put a very very thin coating on regular swords so they have weapons that can harm the zombies?
>>71387342
It was actually adressed, the reason they didn't just kill the Sparrows with Lannister troops was because orchestrating an attack against the Faith would rile up the peasants against them.
At least with the bombing Cersei can somehow pretend it was an accident and she had nothing to do with it or something
The show internal logic is ignored. When they got rid of Stannis and Aegon, they made for themselves impossible for Cersei to be removed by anyone but Dany.
Why wouldn't Ned tell everybody Jon Snow is R+L when Robert is dead? What's the point of still keeping it a secret when Jon was in the night watch and Robert was dead.
>>71387411
Because they didn't know when they started writing,
>>71387351
The sparrows are apparently so numerous that the tyrell & lannister forces COMBINED couldn't start shit with them, and they were ALL in that fucking sept the size of a swimming pool?
The worst part is that your shit logic about "most people being killed in the explosion" is actually very perceptive when considering all the shit D&D have been pulling, but fuck me sideways if it makes any fucking sense. Guess it's 20goodmen all over again
>>71383437
>dickon's a nobody
>rickon died
>even the fucking smug cunt who shipped them died
>>71387411
Ned was a fucking tosser who chose the death of his family for the sake of his false honour. He was an idiotic cunt who should've listened to his father.
Cool scene when papa tells him but at the end of the day to win.
>>71384358
That's the whole point of homosexuals, their identity revolves around their sexuality.
>>71387487
I assume most of it was because they had hostages.
ALL MEN MUST DIE, BUT WE ARE NOT MEN
>>71383437
Plausible Deniability.
>>71387487
The sparrows are said to be numerous but not in any way comparable to Lannister troops. Lannister and Tyrell forces couldn't touch them because they represented religion which is kind of a big deal in medieval times and because atacking them meant putting the entire population against them.
Also it's possible not all sparrows were there, but what's left will disperse now that all their leaders are gone
>>71387411
That makes him a Targ (even a bastard) and would lead to Targ loyalists causing a new rebellion against the crown.
>>71383437
>how did she get away with it?
Doesn't matter anyway. She has Dani with her unsullied army + iron born + Tyrells + dornish + horse niggers + 3 huge dragons coming for her.
She used up all the wildfire and has literally nothing to defend King's Landing with. We shouldn't ask ourselves trivial things like how she became queen. We should ask ourselves how she plans on surviving the first 2-3 episodes of season7.
What keeps Dany from just come to Kings Landing on the back of her dragons and claim herself true ruler of Westeros? Wouldn't peasant be fucking amazed seeing a Targ coming on dragons? What's the point of a fucking war when she just has fucking dragons?
>>71387533
Ned is such a fool. Also, most of His marriage troubles could have been avoided if He said Jon was Benjen's.
>>71387605
If the northern scenes have taught you anything it's that name and blood only gets you an audience. You earn loyalty. You don't galivant about name dropping your old mans last name and whinging like a bitch at people till they agree to roll over and die for you.
Go to bed sansa.
>>71387605
Same reason you can't occupy a country with only tanks and helicopters. You need ground troops. Dragons are fire support.
Also
>take ships across the sea
>dragons have no where to rest and have to keep flying
>by the time they arrive they will be so exhausted they can do fuck all
GG Dany.
>>71387605
Aegon just didn't fly upon magical creatures and they all orgasmed over such a sight and bent the knee.
He roasted people alive and forced them to submit.
>>71387675
Except literally everywhere Dany has gone, her dragons have won her the loyalty of people who have no reason to give a shit about Targaryans.
All she has to do is fly up to King's Landing on Drogon, and the people of Westeros will flock to her.
>>71387709
The fly in on drogon - > make people cream their pants and bend the knee method has been working for Dany so far.
>>71387746
Even more when there are ice zombies flooding from the nord.
>be peasant
>hear horror from the north of dead frozen people and winter
>targ girl comes on a fucking dragon spitting fire
At this point I just think dragons are the best way to fight frozen deads.
