Ed Sheeran in GOT season 7 Salt - "Muh Immersion!"

[Fandom Trash]

Yo, second thread here. I just couldn't resist.

So for those of you who are familiar with Games of Thrones, the first episode of the seventh season just came out yesterday night on HBO. It was nice, and promised to be an exciting season for GOT.

Well, in a certain scene in this episode, one of the main characters, Arya, encounters a group of young enemy soldiers, Lannisters to be exact. Before she encountered them, she could hear one of them singing a lovely song about girls and drinks. The solider that was signing happened to be Ed Sheeran, who was rumored to have a cameo in GOT season 7. The rest of the scene goes accordingly without any problems, but the damage has already been done.

Spoiler: The scene in question

Despite the fact that there have been previous musicians who cameoed on GOT, Ed Sheeran's cameo particularly rustled many fans' feathers. The fans took to reddit and youtube to talk about their annoyance on this particular scene.

People either:
1. annoyed that Ed's cameo broke their immersion of the episode
2. believe that this cameo is only used to promote his latest album
3. believe that he doesn't look he belongs in the GOT world
4. Mad that he took precious screen times from their beloved character, Arya.
5. Just happy that he's in the show.

Overall people just want him to be killed off by the next episode. If he's still alive by then, expect for some more salt.

Spoiler: Salt

tbf its kinda hard to imagine a pudgy ginger would make it to adulthood, much less survive battle tbh

Ed Sheeran, coming soon to a pot shop near you

 

[WhatNemesisMeans]

I prescribe a steady diet of cyanide pills and bleach to all those screeching retards.

 

[Butta Face Lopez]

I know they've been talking about putting Mac and Charlie from Always Sunny in at some point, now I just want it to happen even more. Throw Danny DeVito in there too, why the hell not

i feel like if anything, Ed Sheeran would be best fitting in the lord of the rings universe. or perhaps a lucky charms commercial.

Anybody who likes Game of Thrones is a lolcow.

 

[DuskEngine]

He looks like a Twitch streamer lmao

 

[The_Truth]

He was in the short lived Bastard Executioner as well; he didn't want to cut his hair so he always wore a hat.

Yeah, I noticed ol' Ed of The Shire last night, didn't really have much issue which it. What I did have issue though has how in the first five minutes of the show

Spoiler

Arya went from a well-trained assassin to a frickin' mass murderer when she managed to poison an entire room of Freys and strode out like it ain't no big thang. Congratulations show- now Arya is even more of a psychopath than Joffrey could ever hope to be!

but sure, let's whine about the ginger who's entire role was "rank and file grunt, sitting on a log with other rank and file grunts so Arya could have another "Pint-Sized Golgo13" moment.

Modern pop (if he even fits that genre) is shallow garbage, that's the only reason people are upset about this.

Other than that, GoT is another Dr. Who, I could give less a shit.

Yeah, let's have Danny DeVito as the TRASH MAN come out and dunk on Daenerys with all of her dragons using his trash powers.

 

[RI 360]

I didn't even know who this person was and the scene was effective in humanizing the people Arya wants to slaughter. That was the fucking point.

This would be brilliant marketing if they were more discreet about it. GOT is the hub of normies, it shouldn't be too hard to subliminally brainwash them into buying your new album. Guess they fucked up as elementary of a task as that.

No no no, see, Jon is going to try to sleep with Dany, but he's gotta pay the troll toll.

yeah hes sold almost 10 million albums has hundreds of millions of views on youtube if not billions put together and his new album is the fastest selling album by a singer ever, and 3rd best seller in their first week of release


he ain't doing that because he needs game of thrones, he did that because he wanted to be on the show

 

[AnimuGinger]

The "What a nice voice" "WTFITWASEDSHEERANBETTERDRINKBLEACH" is just the epitome of retardation. You admit you like the singing, then change your mind when you realize who it is.

But see, it's okay when she does it cause she's a STRONG FEMALE CHARACTER and those are "bad guys"; and this show paints murder as cool and such when the "heroes" do it.

Otoh I have absolutely no problem with this guy cameoing in anything he pleases.
