BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) Frickin Floki!!!! I'm surprised they let Athelstan die. However I think this will drive Ragnar to Christ starting with putting on Athelstan's cross, far from what Floki had in mind. Also his son Alfred will become one of the greatest Christian Kings of England. Ecbert's still !@#$ed and got some weird plan up his sleeve - Alfred really? interesting Frickin Floki is right - Athelstan was a good part of the show. The Cross to Ragnar IMO is his love for Athelstan and his reminder to reward Floki when the time is right Edited March 27, 2015 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maury Ballstein Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Time for Ragnar to choke Floki's dumb ass out. Used to like him but he's just a kooky wildcard now. Agree w dev on the turning into GOT. Siggy annoyed me though, won't miss her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB3 Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 Another good episode. For some reason, I'm beginning to like Kalf. Floki is fantastically nuts. Half of me wants Ragnar to kill him, half wants him to live so that we get to enjoy his manic episodes. As far as Ecbert goes, revenge will be sweet.

LB3 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Ecbert is stone cold! Willing to sacrifice his son, trying to bed his daughter in law. Turning on everyone. The guy is the worst and yet I live him. Travis Fimmel just keeps getting better as Ragnar. The confidence he gives to in his acting as Ragnar just jumps off the screen. When he gave Floki the lead in the battle and things got a little testy and the strategy meeting and Floki looked to him as of to ask what to do, the shoulder shrug and smirk he made to Floki was hysterical. He is always three moves ahead of almost everyone else. I would say Floki is descending into madness, but he's been batsh*t crazy all along. He's so in love with the power and potential glory Ragnar gave him, that it seems like he lost sight of the fact that Ragnar is probably playing him. These last three episodes are going be excellent.

LB3 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) Sounds nuts. Bed daughter inlaw is just wrong It's even worse because he is trying to bed her while his son is away on a mission he sent him on where he either succeeds and lived, or fails and dies furthering his own agenda. Add to that that he essentially introduced and pushed for his daughter in law and priest friend (Athelstan) to hook up so he can have a divine child. The guy is fantastically evil.

That's what I thought, we assume Ragnar knows Floki killed Athelstan and is setting him up to fail or get killed. Although it would hard to kill someone who is so good at engineering, hard to replace that talent. I don't think he was trying to bed her but the thought did cross his mind (oh and my wife is in love with Ragnar, or any other bearded knarly badass dude who is in power) Edited April 4, 2015 by Buffalo Barbarian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Ecbert is definitely traveling a strange path Flokie is about to go off the deep end and I think Ragnar put him there on the edge the mad "queen" has a son by Ragnar? that being so, with the northmen from Northumbria support her or Ecbert?

This is an interesting question. Even without the child, you would think that revenge would be a factor for the Vikings, but Ragnar killed the old man that told him about the betrayal before word could get out to everyone. I anxiously await the next time Ecbert and Ragnar chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if she is fibbing about this as it was news Aethelwulf and co, plus we never saw her pregnant (although she gave old Ragnar a good ride I'm sure) Wouldn't say northmen from Northumbria as they are Scots, which automatically makes them against the Saxons (who are actually vikings themselves as they also trace their lineage through Odin as well, but I digress) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRT to the show I have no idea exactly what region he indicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The People of Scotland were not Norse/Germanic, they were Picts. The Picts were a pre-Roman Celtic tribe. They are the Barbians who started attacking Romanized Briton after the Empire withdrew. The Romanized Britons offered land to the Angles and Saxons to fight off the Picts my thought about killing the old man was so that his people wouldn't want revenge before Paris My thoughts also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
