This last episode was boring, I feel like they ran out of ideas after the Night King.
Seeing humans vs humans isn't fun anymore. They've been dragging that story since season 1. At this point, do we really care who sits on the iron throne? It's not like we have many options left now.
- So, GoT should have been a 2 hour movie about ONLY the Night King instead of an 8 season series?dopepope
- When you keep hearing "Winter is Coming" for 7 long seasons, why not?Maaku
- I'd watch that moviedopepope
- The series is called A Song of Ice and Fire, I guess it was all a misdirect for you to think it was about the night king and not jon snow.zarkonite

instead of doing spinoffs, they just need to do alternate versions of the last two seasons.
do a take where the white walkers overrun winterfell and they have to unite the 7 kingdoms in order to defeat them.
Game of Thrones - Spin Again
- They're doing spinoffs? Hard pass. One more episode and I don't want to see this show ever again.section_014

Would people hate on the last two seasons if they didn't know George R. R. Martin didn't finish the stories/writing? i catch myself hating on the predictability but I feel like its further enforced by me knowing its not the same writer.
- Based on what I've read, this is the ending of the books as well.yuekit
- Some of the weaknesses may have come from not having detailed source material but the basic story is the same.yuekit
- ah gotcha. for some reason i thought the books were incomplete.instrmntl
- Yeah books were never finished but the author gave them the basic outline of what's supposed to happen.yuekit
- The writers said they followed some of the points outlined but ignored others.MondoMorphic
- and none of the witty dialogue, plot, intrigue etc._niko

lol...looking at reactions online it seems like everyone hated that episode but I thought it was surprisingly great. Sure you can poke holes in the pacing and logistical issues all day but on a thematic and visual level it delivered.
Honestly I think a lot of the hatred consists of people who were too emotionally invested in the show turning out a certain way. When in reality the best thing about the show from the beginning...which I was afraid they were going to wimp out on...is the cold eyed view it has taken of its own characters. The fact that it pissed off people who go to Game of Thrones conventions and named their kid Daenerys is just proof that is was good IMO.
I liked the decision to show what taking down a city actually looked like from the other side. The show puts you in a position where you're cheering for it to happen, but then confronts you with the reality of what it involves. The confrontation between the two brothers being the "final battle" was unexpected but quite poetic mirroring the conflicted duality of the show overall.
- yeah, I was too invested in the writing being any fucking good.e-wo
- What happened to the archers? I assume they went up in flames, but there wasn't much arrow action later on.PhanLo
- There were some scenes at the beginning where they tried to load and aim the crossbows but they were too slow and the dragon incinerated them.yuekit

Wow, that destruction of kings landing was so fucking epic. I’ve never seen anything like it.
There were probably 5-6 ridiculous moments/plots/fates in the episode overall, but man that half hour of mayhem was unparalleled

That fight with Jamie and Euron seemed improbable. What a coincidence they would find each other after Euron's boat is destroyed. And wow were those boats actually supposed to be made of iron? Because they blew apart like match sticks.
The whole setting fire to a stone city thing... You'd think the dragon would get tired after a while. Also seems like way more carnage than was necessary just to stoke fear. She just destroyed the whole city.
She and Snow will have the final dance of ice and fire. Will he inherit her dragon after she dies?

Fun Fact: King's Landing was built with limestone and gun powder.

Was surprised, relieved, and a little disappointed to not see Hodor's zombie penis swallow Bran and his wheelchair in one gulp. TV shows these days are fucking rubbish.

- That Guardian article is insane. It's like they editor gave the writer a headline and challenged her to write the article around it. It's all bullshit...Wolfboy
- ...where ever the narrative doesn't fit the wokeness, she just changes the facts or is wilfully ignorant about what she's watched happen...Wolfboy
- 'Jon’s gender would make him a better leader than Daenerys' That's not what was said; it was (rightly) said that his gender would be an easier sell...Wolfboy
- ...to the simple folk – not that it would make him better. And her claim that Daenerys being called unstable is double standards, where a King would be just...Wolfboy
- ...be considered a dick is also bullshit. Both the Mad King and Joffrey were assassinated for being unstable twats. Urrgh, articles like this get under my skin.Wolfboy
- a guy got his dick cutoff... a king murdered while sitting on the toilet... a man face crushed... another fed to dogs etc etcinteliboy
- this show is certainly happy to demean and degrade any character regardless of what genitals they have.inteliboy
- ..including no genitals at all.Nairn
