Cersei really is a superb queen... shes done so many nice things. I can't see why some of you hate her so much.

Fack off with your sarcasm.

Damn, we've come a long way...

 

[DarthSkywalker]

That is great Kane.

 

[scarlet-witch]

At least the first gif remembers that Ghost exists.

 

[BullMcGiveny]

All this time I've thought that was supposed to be Robb.

 

[Marvolo]

When Cersei dies, it is going to be so funny.

Its going to be tivo worthy probably.

 

[Leenie]

Cersei is my favorite character. By far.

I know her death is imminent; she has a big ol' bullseye on her head right now. However, I'm going to enjoy every second of her evil reign.

No, I am not joking. And no, I am not sorry. Cersei is fabulous and the most entertaining character in the series for me. Not that I would love someone like her in real life or anything, but as a villain in a tv show or movie? I love her in the same way I love a character like Maleficent.

If the series ends with Daenerys winning it all, though, I will be fuming. God, I can't stand her.

Lena Headey is great but I enjoyed her POVs so much in AFFC, more so than her show portrayal.

Even though she's blown up a sept, show Cersei clearly does display a level of cunning that she doesn't in the books. You could say show Cersei is a much more rounded character but for me her pure delusion and idiocy in the books is far more entertaining.....and that's after having only read a couple of her chapters in comparison to watching her for 6 years on the show!

I give you credit. Hwe chapters started out interesting, but after a few I began to get incredibly annoyed watching her make such idiotic decisions.

Also, is there any news on whether or not we'll see the next book before the decade is over?

I'm only half joking.

It's all build up to her and Tommen's end, she's stupid and crazy and Faegon's gonna kill the *****.

 

[TheFuture]

Only barely into ADWD but tbh I've no major beef with Mopatis. Sure he has alterior motives and he has a flippant way of using people as coin but ultimately not a reprehensible individual as I was led to believe.

Yes to all of this (I don't hate Dany at all, I just don't see it ending with her on the throne)

But Cersei is so interesting. Even as she's making bad decisions I can't help but love every second of that trainwreck.

 

[Reek]

Edit... it was Jon Snow/Battle of the Bastards with a lightsaber. but language.... eesh

Cersei is gonna make Westeros great again. You're gonna be sick of all the winning.

 

[Reek]

Westeros is going to bomb the hell out of an empty airfield in Qarth. We are sending a message to all Usurpers. More wine...and well done steak... with ketchup. Terrific.

 

[BullMcGiveny]

Someone pointed out to me that "born amid salt and smoke" could refer to Davos and Mel.

 

[TheFuture]

Having fairly ripped through the books I'm not even certain about how much weight to put into the prophecies. There's obviously magic at play but the whole azor ahai/volonqar type of stuff I'm not sure how to feel about.

Put it this way I'll eat my hat if I see nikolaj coster-waldau pulling a flaming sword out of Lena Headey.

 

[BullMcGiveny]

I think there's always gonna be some sort of deconstruction or the like, but it would be a colossal wind up if it goes nowhere.

 

[Reek]

i figured salt would surely have to do with the iron islands.

While that's happening, Cersei is eating the most beautiful piece of lemon cake you've ever seen. So incredible.

 

[Marvolo]

Same here.

 

[Roose Bolton]

I only know one truth, it's time for the Starks...to end.
