Who wants to be king? Vikings: Contains Spoilers

ad

Do any of you follow this show? What did you think of the mid season finale and where the show is heading?

I'm lost. Haven't seen the show. I am also for sure lost on all this homo shit below, feels like the Twilight Zone down there....

Engineereddisaster's picture

I "straightened" things up a bit. Lol the place was starting to feel like one of Irishs' source discussion threads. Smile

Many peoples advise me to see this show...

It is really so interesting?

The Impastable's picture

Definitely one of the better shows on TV right now. Consistently top 10 for views in the US.

I think they peaked at season 2. 3 was ok but the show started drifting into domestic and drama- Bjorn and Torsten, the chubby English princess, etc. Season 4 was a disappointment IMO. It was game of thrones with ragnar drug addict subplot and no action until the end there.

The Impastable's picture

I can see why you'd say that. I think its slowed its pace, but it's still on good grounds lol. Since this season is 20 episodes, they're not making action sequence after action sequence.

I think they've done very well with their goal this season, which was to make is doubt ragnar and to make is actually see hes not all that much a good guy, as opposed to previous eoisodes where its team ragnar all the way.

I love that show. I knew they were gonna pull some bs like that at the end. Imo season 4 was kind of lacking but that's usually how it goes in a series, kind of a filler season and then the next one is just insane

Thank god for game of thrones dropping this weekend

The Impastable's picture

I see what you mean about it being lacking. I think since they were granted a 20 episode season they decided to slow things down and try to tell more of everyone's story. The pace was definitely different, but still managed to be suspenseful IMO.

enhancedlife's picture

No doubt, they're holding out for the last 10 episodes to ramp it up. However I think I read an article that said there will be 6 seasons

Big fan..may valhalla open its doors in time.

It resumes sometime later in 2016

Sorry Murph, edited the title to alert about spoilers. You're gonna enjoy the episode. Gave me some mild anxiety through it.

The Impastable's picture

That was the mid season finale bro, season 4 has 10 episodes left Smile

The Impastable's picture

I'm not sure man, but I know filming for season 5 starts in July.

I also think flimmel has some real talent with the monologues he does. I remember getting goosebumps when he was yelling at rollo on the boat about his betrayal.

Pale's picture

You talking about Vikings last night? Yea, that was kind of a weird out of nowhere time leap eh?

The Impastable's picture

Yes sir, and yeah it was pretty bizarre... But the show is kind of known for leaping ahead in time and leaving the viewers a little confused as to just how much time passed.

Im very interested in how Ragnar handles his relationship with his sons going forward, now that they're all setting up their own paths of glory going forward.

Also, if Lagertha dies I walk.

Pale's picture

Haha, that was what I asked my wife, " where the fuck is Lagertha? Lol

The Impastable's picture

Hahaha. My girl gets to drool over Ragnar, Rollo, and bjorn... So I get to drool over lagertha.

During that fight scene she goes "I'm not sure about whether I'd chose Ragnar or Rollo." And I quickly answer "I'd rather Rollo died." She corrects me "oh no, I meant to let fuck me."

I totally set myself up for that one man...

MAXIMUS666's picture

Hahaha...goddam does your girl hang out with mine or something? Exactly something she would say

The Impastable's picture

Hah idk man, it's a small world after all. Can you really blame them though, Ragnar is pretty fucking hot. Obligatory no homo.

MAXIMUS666's picture

Gotta give credit where credit's due! Goddam dream boat! lol

Engineereddisaster's picture

"Dream Boat"

Constitutes a "Full Homo" all day every day.

MAXIMUS666's picture

Don't you judge me! LOL

Engineereddisaster's picture

I'm sorry max. If it looks like a homo, walks like a homo, smells like a homo, and talks like a homo... We'll. It's homo. Smile
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
No homo

Pale's picture

We are going to have to flag down that "no homo" on this one. A "no homo" will not disqualify any dude saying another dude is "fucking hot"...

The Impastable's picture

If you consult section 3i. Of article III in Ed's no homo articles of behavior, and I quote "any man referring to another in a complimentary manner regarding physical appearance shall be exempt of any homo connotation if and only if 1) the man in question does indeed posses attributes the compliment was describing. 2) if when the statement was addressed, it was referencing the viewpoint of the female gender to better highlight a particular viewpoint about said man. 3) a no homo statute is directly issued within the same paragraph or portion of speech relating to the topic. And 4) the originator of the comment has proven in his past, through a solid understanding of guidelines and statements, that they are in fact brethren of the eight "no-homo" court.

Now, unless we shall not be adhering to the guidelines of magister Ed and his dictate that has been set forth, what seems to be the issue in question?

Pale's picture

We will await a decision on this one from Ed himself....

Engineereddisaster's picture

Thank you for your patience brothers, I am here with my judgement:

Pasta was correct with his reference to article three of the no homo guidebook...HOWEVER...had he completely disregarded the addendum to article 3 Dated January 3, 2016.
The addendum states:
If any man, no matter the reference, no matter the comparison, no matter the personal masculinity; referes to another man as Sexy, Hot, babe, bae, or like language. He unequivocally has already placed the proverbial penis into his own mouth and has fully violated the no homo code of ethics therefore has to carry the title of homo for a minimum of 4 months.
I'm sorry Pasta...
My judgment is: HOMO!

Sorry bro. I'm hard (no homo) but fair.

Thank you Pale for bringing this before the board. No homo bro. No homo no homo no homo.

The Impastable's picture

Grand magister Ed,

Why was I not informed about the newest addendum issued this year?

I cannot accept 4 months of homo-probation, especially with the coming summer season. The fact that I will be bulking and look like a puffer fish does not matter. I am going to appeal this ruling on grounds of either a complete reversal of lesser term sentencing. Failure to inform your court of new guidelines must surely constitute a grounds for leniency.

Regards,

Pasta, descendant of barleyson of the house Alfredor.

Engineereddisaster's picture

Bro, I checked your account and you didn't renew your subscription.
If you don't pay your bills you don't get the updates. Holy shit bro Bernie Sanders isn't making me pay your bills yet. Smile
Look bro. I like you so maybe we can reduce the sentence down to a month, if you give me 20 hail no homos per day and you refer to yourself as Pasta, descendant of Stheve of the Housth of Sodom.

All my love, no homo
Edward Descendant of Ron Jeremy of the house of Hoes

I accept your plea bargain, grand magister. A month it is.

No homo,

Pasta, descendant of Stheve of Housth of Sodom.

Pale's picture

No homo...

Pale's picture

LOL, That is hilarious. Rollo really (historically) went on to be king so that will likely be his fate on Vikings. Ragnar of course has a date in Wessex with a pit full of venomous snakes...

The Impastable's picture

Yeah, shit like that is why I she's the one Smile Rollo becomes king and his sons conquer much of the territory in present day southern France IIRC, so as much as I hate him for becoming a traitor and leading to the disappearance of my beloved, he's got a bit more to go before they end his storyline.

Ragnar is definitely going out this way as opposed to the other theory, which he became a wanderer and died of illness... Which one would pull in more views? What I'm wondering is whether they will move that storyline to the finale of this season or not, given that he's going to be returning to England to meet Magnus... I'm also interested in the dynamic between him and his sons, whom he feared would become more famous than he.

After binging on Vikings I've also come to an impasse as to whom I deem to be the more beautiful woman, Natalie dormer or Katheryn winnick

Pale's picture

Tough call, I admit I am hot for them both, yet they are so different..

The Impastable's picture

With Natalie it's that British accent man...
