Isn't she 22?
Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended
- Thread starter ha_rooney

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Dany will kill Jon Snow before the season is out. All she has known is the quest for the throne and now because of a man it would be out of reach. Nope, as much as she may claim to love Jon Snow, she loves power the most.
Agent work goes heavily into this. She’s an actress that will want to work afterwards. She had star power going in to season 8 that she will never have again. Agents will actively seek to further their clients careers. “You will present my client in a certain light” will be part of a contract. If she wants to be considered an adult actress and not a kid, a super straight-bat sex scene is an easy path.
Source : Friends partner was involved in True Blood for multiple seasons. This shit happens. Not claiming it DID happen with Maisie Williams on GoT
It definitely didn't. She said herself in an interview that she thought D&D were pranking her when she saw the script. Apparently they also left it up to her to decide how naked to get in it. I guess her response was "crack and sideboob".
It was really weird to watch. I get that she's 18 in it or whatever and wants to get dicked before she dies but we really didn't need to see any of it actually happening.
Arya’s been a trained child assassin for several seasons now who literally slits people’s throats and feeds people their offspring in pies but god forbid she gets her end away.
I think we can all agree that another Missandei sex scene would've been the better approach.
Fair play to Grey Worm, manages to nab the hottest woman in the show without having a dick, dudes got game.
Theon should stop being sad and shit and take a leaf out of his book.
Isn't that the point? She's always been portrayed as a child in this show
Considering I don’t know (or care) what D&D means, tells you my level of effort in my suggestion.
The point is irrelevant here seemingly. Post remains valid as a point though.
Yeah and people are more bothered about the shagging than the killing.
Bloody weirdos.
Nobody has a problem with her banging Gendry, it's watching her do it (half naked) that's the problem.
Why? You didn’t mind seeing her stab someone in the eyes?
The sex scene was uncomfortable but not as uncomfortable as all the people telling us theres no reason to be uncomfortable.
There's a huge difference... everyone knows she's not actually killing people/stabbing people in the eye, but she is actually getting half naked (I guess it might have been a body double - but that's not what you think when
It wasn't a body double, assuming she's truthful in her interviews.
Maisie Williams is 22 - Emilia Clarke was 24 when she got naked in S1 and the collective internet lost the plot... The only difference here is that you still think of Arya as a little kid, but she's a grown woman on the set of a series, it's not that special or awkward imo.
This is feckin weird lads. Can we get back to the TV show.
And that the show portrays her as a kid. (until this episode at least)
She's supposed to be 18 years old right now though...
Yeah because that's the same thing
How dare I be uncomfortable at seeing her naked. Shame on me. I should have my eyes held open so I have to look at her.
I thought the whole thing was just odd. Could have been handled differently and I could have done without it too.
Dont think she doubts who he says he is. And that’s precisely the crux of the problem.
Am I the only one that wished they showed Arya fully naked?
I get that (though has that been stated in the show? Not that it needs to be, just curious... has the show ever dealt with ages?) - but nobody has ever treated her as an adult, nor has she really ever acted like one either. She's basically gone from child, to child assassin... with the point being everyone being surprised/shocked that she's a child who is also an assassin.
Probably not, and there's nothing wrong with that either to be fair.Am I the only one that wished they showed Arya fully naked?
It made me uncomfortable, it probably made lots of people comfortable (i genuinely couldn't think of what the opposite of uncomfortable was for a minute there...) .... neither is wrong way to feel about the scene I would say.
Bran is going to f*ck the Night King.
No paedophile/rape jokes before anyone thinks of posting...
Oh it's already been said 97 times in the thread. As you were.

The only thing about that scene that made me uncomfortable, was the acting.
There’s no way that was Maisie Williams body when Arya unclothed. It looked very CGI-ey, to me, particularly the side boob shot.
You comparing it to real pics or what?
The point that agents work angles for clients is not a valid point?
Of course it is.
I didn’t say that it was applicable to williams in GoT but of course it’s valid.
The audience is seemingly fine with Arya acting like an adult in SOME ways (eg murder), but anything approaching sexualisation of Arya is utterly unacceptable, apparently. If you personally take issue with seeing the actress half naked because, to you, she looks like a kid/has been on the show as a kid, that’s fine. Everyone has their opinions. I don’t get it but whatever.Yeah because that's the same thing
How dare I be uncomfortable at seeing her naked. Shame on me. I should have my eyes held open so I have to look at her.
But if you think the character of Arya shouldn’t be having sex in the show, that’s bonkers.

Too soon. We were expecting her to get banged season 10 but that's not happening so...
If it was weird for us, imagine how the actor playing Gendry must have felt.
Nobody is saying that, read the last few posts. I literally said I have no issue with her having sex.
Personally I think the weirdos in here are the ones who seem to have an issue with people finding it uncomfortable watching her be naked on screen. Also "well she kills people and you don't mind so you shouldn't mind seeing her naked" doesn't exactly cut it.
if your sister punched someone in the face would it then be wrong if you didn't want to watch her suck a dick?
EDIT: Maybe those weirdos shouldn't answer that one
Yeah but.. what's the point of it being in here if it has nothing to do with her and GoT, then?
Hard, I assume...
Yeah, good luck with that
Because it was suggested to be a cause.
Was proven to not be.
Remains a fact, even if not applicable to this case.
I’m not going to go back and delete the post.
Agent impact throughout GoT is notable.
