Shit Caller because of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
As a rape victim, I support real victims of abuse. I do not support liars. I like maybe a handful of Depp's films as I find he's terribly repetitive in the roles he chooses to play. As for his money, it's his effing money. He made it based on the HARD WORK he did to accomplish it. If you had done the same coming from the same background I'd praise you as well. What I do not support are bullies and the aforementioned liars. Amber Heard is a liar and perjurer who has as yet to be punished by a court of law for those lies. I could give a rat's ass what Depp has. I care his career and reputation were damaged on a lie.
You do realize Depp came from nothing? His mother and father were horrible alcoholics, and his mother horribly abused him when he was a kid to his teenage years. What he has in terms of wealth was greatly diminished due to Heard's false allegations, yet he continued to give selflessly to many charities and causes he believes in. Primarily children's charities. As for the drugs and alcohol problems, he was clean and sober the entire time he was with Vanessa Paradis, and only backsliding because of Heard's insistence he do it. She love bombed him.
As for his wealth, Depp made that money by his hard work ethic. Unlike Heard who seems to sleep with anything that will guarantee her the lifestyle she craves. Depp made that mo ey BY HIS OWN HARD WORK!
What happened with Heard was a result of HER actions, not his. Would you blame a female abuse victim for falling in love with a man who would go on to abuse her? I hope not.
According to Dr Shannon Curry who gave evidence in court as a third party witness, she said this happens when a victim of spousal abuse is taken over by a borderline psychopath like Heard.
So please, either want to learn what actually happened, or shut up.
It's called aging. He's 59 and led a hard life, and the last six years have been a bitch trying to redeem his name after that flappy fish*hore tried to ruin him and his name.
Agree totally about Paddy. And yes, about what you said about Viserys being the diplomat. As for Emma, SHE is amazing as Rhaenerya. And I call her SHE because that is the character she's playing. She'll be nominated, if she is, in the best actress's category that denotes SHE, not they. Millie laid that foundation very well for Emma to take over. All in all the acting even from the kids who played Jace and Luke was also good. Special mention has to go to Ewan Mitchell and his portrayal of Aemond. He is truly scary and his maniacal performance in the dragon pursuit was pure evil.
That scene where Viserys makes that final appearance in the throne room to support Rhaenerya's claim is what acting is all about. That one scene should be used in acting class to show what can be done by an actor. I also have to say Emma D'Arcy killed that finale with her metered performance as Rhaenerya. The birthing scene through the burning if her daughter to the coronation was so good.
I haven't read the book and I knew exactly what was going on. The problem with the book is that like The Bible, it's written by unreliable actors. George RR Martin, Ryan Condal, and Miguel Sopochnick all said the book is SPECULATIVE HISTORY as most history books are. None of the events in the book are the truth. What is being depicted in the series is THE truth.
I know that. Gee, it's like I don't watch the show.
Um, the overview of the Doom of Valerya is pretty good. The structure Viserys is making in the King's chamber is Old Valerya. The opening with the Targaryen bloodline is played out over Old Valerya where the Targaryen dynasty began.
As for the incest, go to your history in the reign of the Ptolemys. That was Cleopatra's lineage. To keep the bloodline strong and pure she was married to her brother to rule Egypt.
It already sucks to me. I hate Tom Cruise with the heat of a thousand suns but I prefer that version than this one. Why? It is not even an adaptation of Anne Rice's books. It's a huge wokefest with people parading around saying words. Louis was a plantation owner who owned slaves, but can't have that now because it's not PC. Also Claudia was not black and she was not a teenager. She was five when Louis turned her. But can't leave the story alone. Instead they're debating Anne's work and Anne's memory with this farce. And Diana Gabaldon has the gall to be pissed at how they've adapted her Outlander books. At least they're a hell of a site more faithful than this crapfest.
Um, no! This show is fantasy. It has direwolves, wargs, greenseers, dragons, and people who come back from the dead. Most people in this day and age can figure that out.
And once again, you still don't get the importance of Sansa telling Jon how she found out about The Blackfish retaking Riverrun, and of her sending a raven to Littlefinger. You still haven't gotten it was her DUTY to tell Jon since it was Sansa who not only forced Jon to do this, but told him if he didn't help her she'd so it somehow by herself. Sansa said Jon needed more men, then perhaps here's a novel idea: She tell him she'd sent the raven to Littlefinger and that he was in Moletown. Maybe, just maybe Jon would have listened to her, however, she only said: "We need more men," without one word about what she'd done. And here's this: The battle was set for the morning. Had Jon not confronted Ramsay that morning, Ramsay would have done what he did with Stannis with only the 20 men. And Jon would have been caught unawares and it could have been worse, like wholesale slaughter of Jon's men. Sansa did not save Jon. She complicated things for him.
Here's the thing about Sansa, she thinks she's smarter than she is. Again a throwback to her time with Cersei. She's no Dany who seeks the advice of her advisors. Sansa seeks her own, which considering how bad she is at The Game of Thrones, she needs to stop. Sansa has never ever faced half of what Jon has. Sure she suffered with Ramsay. As for your cheap shot about my "liking Sansa being raped by Ramsay," I'm a rape survivor. I don't support any kind of sexual violence against woman so please spare me.
As for Jon having to be 'saved' from his own death, yeah when seven men drive knives into you, it's a little hard to be think of being 'saved'. If you remember it was Davos who asked Melissandre to bring him back. Jon wasn't saved, he was brought back from death. I'm sure he so enjoyed being stabbed to death. And how many times has Sansa had to be saved? Let's see, Brienne wanted to twice, but just like stupid Sansa, she ran from her. What did she do? Went with Littlefinger, then had the gall to blame Littlefinger for giving her to Ramsay. What like the fact his father was responsible for The Red Wedding and his father was the one who ended Robb's life?
I get Sansa. As a woman, I get her. She's nothing special and nothing to root for because of one thing: How damn stupid she is. She's no LIttlefinger type. She's not quite that intelligent. Baelish started a war based on a lie. Sansa can't even get out of her was long enough to do anything intelligent. Brienne is more intelligent. Gilly is more intelligent. And no, Sansa is not 'pretty clean.' She's got blood on her hands. She wrote Rickon off completely. Jon was the one who wanted to do anyting to save Rickon. So no. And again she clearly didn't understand any lesson at all from her father's loyalty. Meaning, she lost her direwolf wich is a portent of things to come. She lied and Lady died.
Sansa bothered me because of how ridiculous she was. How utterly stupid she was.
Sansa has more than a 'few' flaws. So okay to use your mentality, don't you think then Sansa had a stake in telling Jon about the Vale? Don't you think it would have made her a valuable asset to Jon if she did indeed tell him how she found out The Blackfish retook Riverrun instead of lying about it? Then lying to Brienne who advised her not to lie? As for telling Jon they needed more men, the battle was that morning. She had the knowledge she'd sent the raven to Littlefinger. She should have told him what she'd done, perhaps it would have made Jon rethink his strategy against Ramsay. Sansa learned a lot of Cersei in that she clearly thinks she's more clever than she thinks. What Tywin said about Cersei is true of Sansa.
As for the "Snobby little Shit" comment, she always held her nose higher than Jon. Than Arya. She's just like her mother, Catelyn. She also lied to defend Joffrey against Arya and the butcher boy. A lie that cost her Lady, her direwolf. One might have thought in the interim between that scene where she lied for Joffrey and reuniting with Jon at Castle Black, she didn't learn a thing. Namely, telling the goshdarned truth for once. Telling the guy who will be fighting HER fight what information he needed to know in order to plan his battle accordingly.
AS for Jon not listening or "sitting down and talking" with Sansa as oppose to Mance Rayder, apples and oranges. A discussion with the leader of the Wildlings and trying to forge a peace with them, is a way different thing that sitting down with your sister and discussing thing she has no real world experience in.
Sansa sure did have her own way about her, and that is that she thinks she's smarter than anyone else. Something Cersei believed as well. This has nothing to do with Sophie Turner's acting style. It has to do with the character as she was in the series and the actions. And those actions had consequences, consequences Sansa clearly didn't think about when she lied to Jon.
To add, Sansa "may" have had insight into Ramsay and his mentality. However, she had no insight into how a battle is fought. Also, she more or less wrote off Rickon. Jon won't do that. That is his brother. Seems the one who isn't a true-born son of Ned Stark cares more about the Stark name than the true-born daughter of The Warden of the North.
Dude, you obviously are taking it a little too far as thinking the world of the show takes place in today's mindset. It's a medieval world where lords and ladies exist, and we're talking about dragons and direwolves. In THAT day and age when people break the law such as trying to kill a kid, they're punished. And to be blunt Robb was merciful. He could have had her killed on the spot.
I personally don't think anyone is this world is perfect. No one, not even Ned Stark. Robert Baratheon wasn't perfect. Neither was Jamie Lannister. This world is not like ours. As for the history, I'm currently reading the first book.
Again you failed to note she was a Wildling. Wildlings were known to kill and steal and rape. She and the other Wildlings that were with her were threatening a cripple. One stabbed that cripple in the leg to STEAL his horse. That is how those that do harm are treated. No different than how Jaime Lannister was treated after Robb took him after the Battle in the Whispering Woods. Robb spared her life. A debt she repaid by keeping Bran and Rickon safe from both Theon and Ramsay. Making someone a servant in exchange for outright killing them I boeve was preferable to Osha. Something she didn't seem to mind. I wouldn't either. At least I was alive.
Sansa wasn't going to be fighting. She wasn't going to be the one to actually put her life on the line. She wasn't going to be the one going up against Ramsay or his men. Remember Jon was the one who just wanted to read and head South. Sansa was the one who said she'd "take Winterfell back with or without your help." So fine, go do it Sansa. Go and call on Littlefinger to bring the Vale. Yet The Vale arrives AFTER Jon, Tormund, Wildlings, Mormonts, and the other men had already been fighting to the death, but yeah, Sansa just sits back.
As for caring for each other...not much growing up because she was a snobby little shit. Yet who did she go to for safety? Jon. When she asked, "Where will you go?" What did Jon say? "Where will we go?" Doesn't sound like a man who didn't care for his sister. But only when she needs his protection did Sansa give. Only after Ramsay does she go to Jon.
As for Jon not listening to her: Would you if you were in Jon's shoes when you've got a war to fight? Listen to a girl? I wouldn't. And later on the battlements Sansa admitted she should have told Jon. Jon then said they had to trust each other, and still after he was named King, she challenged him in full view of The Northern houses. Sansa is no leader. Jon is, that's why he was made Lord Commander.
I can find many to loathe Sansa. She is no leader, no Queen, and cannot be trusted. Ever!
What woman did Robb enslave? If you're talking about the series, he fell in love with and married Talisa. If you're talking about Osha, she willingly allowed him to take her in return for sparing her life. A debt she returned by giving her life to defend and protect Bran and Rickon.
Sansa didn't tell Jon the truth of how she found out the Blackfish had retaken Riverrun. She then failed to tell him about her meeting with Littlefinger in Moletown. When Brienne said something to Sansa about lying to Jon, Sansa told Brienne to be silent. Then when it came to fighting the Boltons to retake Winterfell, she didn't tell Jon the reason she wanted him to wait for the Vale to get there. Jon, Tormund, all the Wildlings, Mormonts, etc would have had a better advantage had Sansa TOLD Jon why she wanted him to wait. Then she openly challenged her King in front of his people. Then in season 8, she blabbed the secret her was Aegon Targaryen to of all people, Tyrion Lannister! Sorry but Sansa was a wreck if a character thinking she knew how to play that Game of Thrones.
I never thought I'd like mushrooms, asparagus, broccoli, squash, yams, and a lot of other vegetables.... but here's the thing, I eventually grew to love all of them and eat each one at least once a week.

So based on that, I thought it was pretty clear in my post that you clearly do not understand that David to a degree caused his own death due to his being exactly like Kirk, something Saavik pointed out to him before they left the Grissom. David was to blame, not Spock. Kirk lost his son because of David's trying to be like his father, not because Kirk did anything to cause it.
