Agreed. And the way Bjorn and Ragnar speaks is increasingly annoying. Sometimes I even ask myself why i'm watching this show even

im still going to watch it but wtf, what happened to the awesmesauce of the last 2 seasons..

 

[lgorTudor]

dudes, this show is getting lamer and lamer

I liked the season so far but Ep7 was kinda lame. Couldn't care less about the Paris affair. Authors heat up the situation in England and with Athelstan and then slow it down by showing something I don't care about.

True. I also noticed that Ragnar is very Johnny Depp's John Sparrow-esque when it comes to the way he talks, moves and gestures.

I noticed that too. Kinda freaky. Also Ragnar has become sorta fat around the face Compared to Season 1 Ragnar

Yeeep.

Ye it was pretty obvious that Ragnar needed him to build the siege towers but as soon as they get back to Kattegat Floki is done. It would be easy for Ragnar to kill him in battle and make it look like an accident but in a TV-Show we need an epic stand-off and a melodramatic execution.

I think their aim was to show Ragnar much older than in the first season. I don't really mind, but yeah, the difference is quite big

It's mostly his hairstyle that changes his head's general shape.

Blagden had one thing to say to “Vikings” fans contemplating abandoning the series after the murder of a favorite character.

“If some people are serious about not tuning in because of [Athelstan’s death], then they should tune in,” he said with a laugh.

“They should tune in next week.”

I thought he implied that his killer will die, not Athelstan being resurrected.

 

[Osman]

Floki is gonna die, I dont find that a spoiler, I just hope they dont go with the BS twist of bringing back Athelstan.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

if they kill floki i'll be really pissed

It kinda sounds like a resurection tho..

He's adding a whole new level to the show despite being quite annoying sometimes.

 

[Salvo]

Well athelstan did have the whole stigmata thing.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

you're right, it will be a resurrection! i guess thats how the vikings become christians in the show

 

[Osman]

They made a point to not show Athelstan's dead body and he has been Jesus like character this entire season, so defenitely expecting that lame twist.

 

[Dostoevsky]

That's maybe a time-travel Jesus. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised as Ragnar has like 130 years if you see chars that they have now lol.

 

[lgorTudor]

But Athelstan isn't dead. Floki came into his cabin, told him to go away and never come back or he will kill him, then placed the Athelstan dummy he carved and struck it with his axe. Next up: Athestan is on the run as he meets the wanderer Odin. Odin converts him to paganism, Athelstan comes back as a pagan, Ragnar sends him on a mission to win King Ecbert for their cause. Ragnar+Ecbert defeat Kwenthingy of Mercia+Aethelwulf, Vikings settle in England again, turning it into a pagan paradise as we know it today. Then Ragnar blood-eagles Ecbert for his former betrayal.

 

[radekas]

I think the implication is that Ragnar burried the body of that old farmer he killed earlier in the episode (we have never seen what happened to his body) and Athelstan was probably smuggled out of Kategat (maybe on a mission to Wessex).

 

[Osman]

And Ragnar talking over his dead body like its his dear friend, when no one is anywhere near him to hear him (hence no need for a show), is explained by?


IMO they are more likely to go with a lame supernatural BS twist. Hope not.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Yeah but... Ragnar did shout at Floki... Wait. When he talked to Floki he said like 'I miss him'? He didn't say you killed him. Maybe he left and he misses him.

But Floki did say to his wife that he killed him.

And Ragnar talking over his dead body like its his dear friend, when no one is anywhere near him to hear him.

He was saying how he misses him and how he left him (Ragnar). Maybe he was just talking to himself.

But there was a cross on the grave, though...

Yeah, looks like a resurrection lol.
