Either Jason or Darth Vader sans mask.

Man, people are STILL losing their shit over Dany's downward spiral that happened, it's hilarious reading.

Wouldn't it be fucking hilarious if authors and film writers all started writing fiction where all female characters were evil or descended into becoming evil? Just to piss everybody off?

What I would really like to know is whether or not what the show runners have done with this final two seasons will effect or influence what George RR Martin had intended for the final two books. His story could end vastly different then the show.

That's my question. Which thing is going to influence the other?

[Hal-9000]

They didn't really show anything in the preview.

Other than the key line about each time a Targaryen is born the gods flip a coin and the world holds it breath.

That was said earlier in the series. I can't remember which season it was, but I know it wasn't new.

Place I post at is discussing two possibilities - Dany went full on Targaryen crazy or it was just a military decision.

I'm in the crazy camp and since people are considering it a weakness or slight against the character, I'm pretty much alone

Yep and Varys said it again in the recent ep.

Kinda like a certain line was mentioned twice right before The Sopranos ended.

[Hal-9000]

So did you guys realize Varys' plan was to poison Dany?

I've seen that theory, but there was nothing definitive in the episode (that I saw) that would prove that out other than that girl he was using was working in the kitchen.

Some dude on Twitter said the writers D&D confirmed the theory.

[Hal-9000]

And the reasoning behind it is otherwise the girl and the scene and mentioning the kitchen is pointless in the minutes leading up to his death.

Re: Dany making a 'normal' military decision.

One guy online starts talking about events in the books, which I'm reading for the third time, and is trying to tie in Dany's past actions to her actions in the recent episode.

Other than the books have nothing to do with the show discussion (we separate them), he was trying to say in the past we've only seen Dany from the dragon's perspective when she was liberating cities. We never have seen the action on the ground.

I respond - Not once in the books or in the show did she commit genocide and kill every person she was trying to liberate. Kind of counterproductive for the freer of people isn't it? This was different, this was an escalation.

Then I said her Targaryen blood saved her from being burned in the fire, why couldn't it also be responsible for her bloodlust and insanity in battle?

Could you find a bigger graphic? I can barely see that one.
