This is the Game of Thrones S06E05 discussion thread. If you haven't seen this episode yet there may be spoilers here.
Not to mention Hordor.
It started out so Promising with Dany getting it through her thick Skull about Jorah.
I didn't like that with Hodor at all. :'(
They keep trying to top themselves with Shock Deaths. Since it worked so well on the Show with Tywin and the Red Viper, but they are trying too hard.
Shireen, Stannis, Roose Bolton, Osha, Shaggydog (off screen), now Summer and Hordor.
I don't know if GRRM needs to step in, give a gentle but firm backhand to the writer and write another episode to put things back on track or what.
Hodor, oh no, hopefully he is not R.I.P.
Having spent the days of my youth as your basic “lewd, rude, crude and socially unacceptable Sailor”, I am by no means a prude. I fully expect to see nudity on HBO and feel that if parents didn’t want their children to be exposed to nudity then they should censor their children’s viewing themselves, and not rely on either the government or the network to do their parenting for them.
However, having said that, could someone please explain the purpose of the 3 to 5 second full screen, close up shot of a male’s genitalia? This did absolutely nothing to further the narrative of the story, or the particular character’s story arc. The directors could have simply framed a long shot of the character’s bare backside (from Arya’s point of view) while the actor said his line about “having a wart on his c**k.
I am left to conclude that the purpose of the shot was for it’s simple shock value.
After 65 episodes, the producers and directors should have known better than to stoop to such cheap tactics.
Other than that one "ahem" small critique, the episode was fantastic, IMHO.
Good episode. :)
