reo Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 4 hours ago, NashvilleNinja said: I've seen this so many times mentioned as bad writing. Bran never says "I can never be king". He says "I can never be a lord'. King and Lord are two different titles. In the books or show, is there ever anyone who is both protector of the realm and a lord at the same time? Robert Baratheon gave lordship of Storm's End to Renly. Why didn't he just keep it himself? He wouldn't be. He'd have been Lord of Winterfell but then they'd have named him King in the North. Then he'd become King of the Realm then he'd name Sansa Lady of Winterfell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not if he refuses the title. 7 hours ago, reo said: Once he was King of the North and then King of the Realm, he could name Sansa Lady of Winterfell to continue to line. Or they could just let Sansa rule on her own as the “rightful” heir... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The end result would be the same, the north naming her queen in the north. I'm just wondering why people think it's such a contradiction for him to accept their choosing him to be king but not accept lordship. If he knew he would be choosen to be king anyway what would be the point of accepting lordship? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point being, him refusing the title didn't make sense bc he could've used it to unite the realms in the end. 37 minutes ago, Starkiller said: Or they could just let Sansa rule on her own as the “rightful” heir... See above. That ended up with her becoming Queen. That didn't have to happen. 30 minutes ago, NashvilleNinja said: That may be needed detail/change for the books, but would it be necessary for the show?

Bran isn't a southern King. He's the rightful heir to Winterfell and would be King in the North. Sansa would then be Lady of Winterfell, not Queen. 30 minutes ago, NashvilleNinja said: I'm just wondering why people think it's such a contradiction for him to accept their choosing him to be king but not accept lordship. If he knew he would be choosen to be king anyway what would be the point of accepting lordship? Bc he would know it wasn't just accepting a lordship. It would he becoming King of the North and then King of all the realms thus uniting the kingdoms. The only real reasoning for him not doing this would be if he wanted the North to be separate from the other Kingdoms for some reason. Sidenote in the end I assume Jon, Sansa and Bran all ended up ruling bc I assume Jon would would probably become the King Beyond the Wall. Starks rule them all!

Lol I don't see the value in analyzing the show based solely on plot any further. If someone has cool shit to tell us about how they set up scenes and other visual storytelling, I'm interested.

Yep.... just checked. The most replies in the Titans forum wound up being around 3k. The next closest overall with 6k replies is some Trump thread. But this thread has taken the TR throne.

No, the spoiler thread is still out there separately. The series simply passed the books and there weren’t any more spoilers.
