The fuck are you talking about, "filler episodes"? Do you know what "filler" means? Rhetorical question...

I'm not actually complaining about this difference to the books but it is kind of funny

"where yara has been this season"

Also from reddit, now this I agree with:

Quote
After watching S4E6 I was surprised that Yara and the 30 "best killers" the Ironborn have to offer, get run off by a shirtless Ramsey doing a Mr. Burns.. (release the hounds) EDIT: This felt out of place in an otherwise outstanding episode

more nonsensical BS caused by deviating from the book.

Dreadfort where Tyler Durden imitation Ramsay is

So no. Nonetheless Ironborn bits were just horrible.

Uh....... no. Deviating from the book does not automagically cause nonsensical BS...

It was just a bad scene. Find your excuses elsewhere.

What got me most in that scene is not that they were scared of the dogs, that's legit, the dogs could very well have been the thing that decided the battle for the other side, but... how does getting up the stairs help them against the dogs? Did they outrun the dogs? Or what? Suddenly the scene just cuts away.

Probably they went up the stairs, barring the door behind them to get a head start from the hounds. That's what I figured after this horrible insta-cut they made between cellar and plopping out at the shore.

Also, it was featured in the trailer for the episode and I was actually expecting way more than what they showed. It was clearly disappointing.

In regards to that Theon scene, I was wondering why they didn't just smack Theon in the head and carried him out

I'd fuck her, rather than the king.
Do you honestly think you have any sort of moral authority, Reyiz? Go genocide some more armenians and deny it ever happened, please, and stay in the middle east.

For some reason, the combat has been at its best in Jon Snow wooden sword scenes. Everywhere else, it's super slow and awkward looking. Especially that Jon Snow vs two-daggers-guy fight was painful to watch.

Interesting map; I have to admit that I missed this "little detail" of the plot. Tot is theoretically right about the shorter distance between Moat Cailin and Dreadford but she still would start her travel on the Iron Islands where season 3 finale shows her.
It would've been easier if the show writers would already have let her started in one of those occupied northern castle (where she is supposed to be due to the books anyway9

In the German version Theon's sister is named Asha. It took me ages to realize who that "yara" is...

Btw i think the didnt leave the dungeon in fear of the vicious dogs, but because realizing there's also one human dog down there - neither willed nor worthy of being saved. Dog's called reek.

So they did not really run away from the dogs (bcus obviously with a big sword and awareness u can fight dogs off easily). But understanding that their ironborn prince, now is merely human, takes away their motivation to fight.

"My Brother is dead." Makes that quite obvious. She doesn't seem to be sad. But really pissed off that he's given up. That the ironborn prince is now weak, which doesnt fit in the ironborn way of life at all.
