Or perhaps Bran is weakening the dragons somehow so he can warg into one of them with greater ease. Like a dragon roofie.

I didn't think it was possible, but you just made GoT even more rapey than it already was lol. 😆

Would be hard to pinpoint who would poison them. Sansa clearly doens't care for the whole arrangement, but I highly doubt she'd try and eliminate two such valuable assets in the coming war, especially considering her home and people are on the line.

I think she is a suspect as well. She certainly wasn't thrilled at the sight of them, and there was that line "what do dragons eat". I know at face value this means nothing, but GoT writing has always been saturated with foreshadowing, hints, and double meaning (with some red herrings thrown in of course)

That's very possible. Especially with the food comment, like you mentioned. The priority of feeding an army of her own people versus feeding a pair of dragons that belong to someone she doesn't appear to care for at all. Plus, she hasn't actually seen them in proper combat action (at least not that I can recall, but feel free to correct me if I am just having a brainfart and forgetting something), so she'd have to weigh up their worth in a battle versus the soldiers, without that info. So, yeah, she might not actually consider them worth what they might cost everyone else.

Maybe the dragons are just sad? You see in the animal kingodm all the time that the death of a family member can seriously impact how the remaining ones behave. Seeing their brother get impaled out of the sky by a giant spear might have just really made Drogon and Rhaegal down in the dragon dumps.

Also agree with this.

Kind of hard to blame Sansa, either. Dany comes in like she owns the place, casually dismisses her very real concern for her armies provisioning (I guess this "Queen of the people" doesn't care if the rank and file starve? Maybe a non combatant gets roasted alive, as happened once already?)

Seriously?

Yes.

George Lucas helped direct Game of Thrones’ season 8 premiere

Explains why the dialogue was so shit this episode.

^Shit writers.

yeah you can't blame george lucas for the bad dialogue. not this time, anyway

i was left to guess which scene he directed, i would have chosen the dragon riding scene. i could just as easily see anakin and padme on those dragons, being corny and romantically dry as a bone. (at least their kissing was convincing in this one, though)

New episode leaked. Watching it. Seems similar to the first (meetups, politics, planning, etc).

Episode 3 and beyond will be more action for the most part I assume.
Ep 2 was ok, but like I said more of the same like episode 1.

Spoiler:
A scene with Arya everyone was dying to see and the ending reveal about Jon being a Targaryen to Dany and then immediately after the white walkers arrived at Winterfell.

Are you trying to imply that there has been a drop in standards from say Littlefinger's "the realm" speech to Varys compared with Grand Maester Pycelle's fart joke and Euron's finger in the bum line?

That wildfire, it gets everywhere...

That was fkn terrible timing on Jons part. I half expected the next scene to be Dany taking her forces and abandoning them all there. Thank god for that thrice horn blow.

Decent episode.

Brienne being knighted was a nice momment.

That was an amazing episode. The excellent payoff to so many character arcs was so great that it has single-handedly earned my forgiveness for all of the series past bad writing. I am so hyped for Battle of Winterfell!

Not sure if it's just more shit writing and characters being written to be retards again, or if they foreshadowed that both dragons die in the war. During Jamie's interrogation, they mention that Cersie now has the power to defeat whomever survives in the North due to her 20,000 strong Golden Company.

A single dragon could burn a thousand and break their will in a few passes.

Better episode than the first though.

People were saying only Targaryens can ride dragons so then is the Night King a Targaryen?

Obviously not. Plus he isn’t riding a dragon but a dracolich. Get you’re D&D terms right.
