Pronman gave us top prospect pool in NHL.

"The Flyers don't have as much game-breaking talent as our No. 2 team does at the top of their system, but 2017 No. 2 overall pick Nolan Patrick is right up there; after Patrick, the Flyers have the cupboards lined with talent at every position. The group includes solid first-round picks, middle-round selections who have trended up, and an undrafted free agent in Philippe Myers who is one of the very best defense prospects in hockey. Not too long ago, the Flyers' farm system was a laughingstock, with C-grade college free agents making it into their top five. Today, they are in the best position of any NHL team in terms of adding young premium players to their roster."

Not enough action for me, aside from the dragon scene. Lots of talking and talking and plotting and scheming. That's fine, but I need some bloodshed along the way.

I get that it's winding down and that the pieces are being set, and I know hat they're unearthing some secrets, but someone lose a god damned leg or something already!

Next week's episode should be tits, though.

I hear ya. At this point, I treat the show and the books as 2 completely different stories since they have diverged so much.

Yup, I have a feeling that you are going to see quite a bit of action over the next 2 episodes. You also have to keep in mind that this season is covering quite a bit of time and a lot of story lines. Considering all the pieces that are now in play, I think they have done a very good job. I fully expect at least one major character and a few major supporting characters to die in the next 2 episodes as well. Things are about to get real, LOL.

I think games are free to interpret things differently than other media.

Ungoliant chose the form of a spider, but Shelob was always a spider.

Also, I doubt Gollum committed suicide.

I actually havent read the books, but have a good friend who has and we talk a lot about the background/environment the show is set in.

I think it is a pretty cool world, but as far as this season, I just think there is a very clear difference in writing. It feels like they're just cramming as much as they can into the last two seasons and the plotlines aren't as well thought out and dramatic. Seems to be done for the big scenes everyone wants to see when what made the show great was how intricate and detailed it all was
