Maybe the bolts were magic. Maybe giants loaded them with rubber bands made from babies. Who knows. Who cares.
Give me blood, death, gratuitous sex scenes with a clever imp, and a bad ass duo of some oversized neanderthal and a small girl with a sword called needle. Turn em loose WWE style and let the best man win. Hopefully with lots of gore.
If that lights the hair of GOT nerds on fire so be it. I didn't read the books, never will, and really just want to get stoned and entertained on a Sunday night.
IMO kill everyone!!!

Exactly. It actually bugs me more than it should when people talk about GoT and say things like; “back then” or “in those days”, as if it is historical. Sure, some of it is comparable to historical Earth, but it’s a completely alternate reality. If there exists magic, then you can’t assume the laws of physics or the exact technology they use would be exactly comparable to historical Earth.
I’m actually surprised at how many people are complaining. I think they are just pissed that their predictions have been wrong.
