Well Casterly Rock and Highgarden looked great in the Histories and Lore videos too but, they look nothing like what we got in the show, so I wouldn't bet on any Red Temple looking anything like that (which I doubt we'll see anyway)

This is the Red Temple from one of the History and Lore vids So this is where Melisandre is going. Mel + Kinvara + a set that even slightly resembles this one + Melisandre's theme music = me becoming quakedt.

Hey, I want to tell you a big secret! It's been announced for a long time now. Apparently, FFXV is coming to the PC, along with a modding toolkit. But Square Enix are advising players against creating adult mods, or else they'll never do this again. I'll bet there are nude mods uploaded the day of release, because if the modding community loves one thing, it's the boobies. i know LOL I just hadn't heard about it yet. And we all know it's not news until TMQ says it is.

I hope Lyanna and Rhaegar reappear at some point. Not sure why/how, but I would like another Bran vision of at least Rhaegar, if not also Lyanna. Maybe they could show his death on the Trident. Not sure what the context would be, but it'd certainly be cool.

LF gave Sansa to Roose Bolton just to create chaos. That's always been his M.O. Just plant the seeds of conflict and allow it to happen. Giving Sansa to the Boltons puts Roose Bolton and Cersei Lannister in conflict with each other, in addition to the pre-existing conflict between Stannis and Roose and Cersei. His plan was always to let Stannis and Roose battle each other, and then take out the victor with the Knights of the Vale, just like he told Cersei he would. Idk it makes sense in my head. Stannis didn't match on Winterfell to free Sansa. His rallying cry to the Northerners in the books was him fighting to free FArya but it was never really mentioned in the show that she was there. I never really got Roose's whole plan anyway. He wants to be King in the North (or so it's implied) but he doesn't state that so much as he states that he wants to rebel against the Lannisters, but his only real allies (the Freys and Baelish) are allies of the Lannisters, so it seems kind of dumb. IDK, season 5 was a mess, thats all I can really say. Stannis didn't know she was there but LF said to Sansa when they talked in the crypts that when Stannis defeated the Boltons he would surely name Sansa Wardeness of the North. I think Roose didn't really respect Cersei at all, and since Tywin was dead, he really didn't give a fuck about the Lannisters anymore. As far as he was concerned, his partnership was with Tywin, not Cersei. Roose had his eyes on the North, and he knew that having a Stark in his family would make ruling the North exponentially easier. So he'd have his trophy Stark in the family, hopefully placating the North. He knew Cersei probably wouldn't be able to do shit about it. I thought the whole Bolton/Stark/Lannister/Baratheon thing needed to be explained better, but I do think it made sense.

His plan was always to let Stannis and Roose battle each other, and then take out the victor with the Knights of the Vale, just like he told Cersei he would. Idk it makes sense in my head. I get that, but why, when LF wants Sansa as his queen, would he just give her up so willingly? Why not just give him a random girl and say it's Sansa? It's a plan in which the only outcome was Sansa being pissed that she was sold off, and that's exactly what happened. A stupid plan. Bc Littlefinger is a sociopath lol. Even if he thinks he "loves" Sansa, he still isn't gonna treat her right. Look at Cat. He loved her, and he manipulated her and Lysa, tried to kill her son, conspired against Ned, and basically started the War of the Five Kings. I think the reason he couldn't just use any random girl is because marrying Ramsay wasn't supposed to be permanent, and his bride being Sansa Stark was important. Either Stannis was gonna destroy the Boltons and make Sansa Wardeness, or the Knights of the Vale were gonna take out the Boltons, or any other number of situations that could have spawned from the conflict LF started, they all depended on Sansa being Sansa. I think what's interesting is that LF doesn't really have a masterplan. He's just gonna start a fight, and see what happens. Create chaos, and climb up the ladder the emerges. In this case, set the Boltons and the Arryns and Lannisters and the Baratheons against each other and see what happens. Destabilize everyone else, so he can swoop in a take all the scraps. Season 7 was different. He was trying to reassert control in a world where he was becoming increasingly irrelevant. The Starks were back at Winterfell, the White Walkers were coming, and Daenerys Targaryen was in Westeros. Littlefinger really didn't factor into any of that, so he set to work on chipping away at the new regime. Get into Sansa's head, weasel up to Bran, turn Arya and Sansa against each other. By destabilizing the Stark unit, he grows more powerful. If things had gone according to plan, Sansa would have executed Arya, and LF would remain as Sansa's number one confidante/manipulator. Unlucky for him, this time Bran was around to "see" everything, so his scheme caught up to him. I thought it was all pretty good.

Euphoria is getting dragged by critics. Why can't Eva Green be in something good for once?

Molly's Game and I, Tonya are getting rave reviews. There's already Oscar talk for Margot Robbie and Jessica Chastain. I was not sure how I, Tonya would come off. I'm really curious to see that one. I remember that whole Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan debacle. Idk like 99% of what I'm reading is just about how phenomenal Margot is. I'll probably see them both, because Margot and Jessica Chastain are

The Salvation just came up on my Netflix again and I'm reminded of how fucking good this movie was. Go watch it!! i don't know what it is about Mad Mikkelson but every movie i've seen him in is good. I would watch him and Eva Green loudly eat pickles for 90 minutes and be completely satisfied.

I was looking for something I posted here months ago and it turns out I'm responsible for a full 13 pages of this thread. It was mostly either complaining or fawning. I apologise me in confessions

Anyone else watching Cult? The premiere was really good. I like how this year has more of a psychological thriller/slasher vibe to it than something explicitly supernatural. Sarah Paulson is amazing as always. I like how there seems to be (at least, so far) a clear protagonist and antagonist (Ally vs Kai) instead of previous seasons where the whole ensemble is just horrible and killing each other.

I could see Arya killing Qyburn or something, but not Cersei herself.
Maybe Arya tries to assassinate Cersei, but she gets caught and has to flee. She kills Qyburn, but has to run away before all the guards come swarming after her. Idk.
