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

Saved by the Bell ... oh wait.

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?

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

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

I’m loving this hate .. lol

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

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

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

They just threw 7 seasons worth of character development out the window for most of the main characters (Tyrion, Jaime, Daenerys, The Hound) and went in a completely different direction that makes no sense.
The writing is just awful this season. The Hound has been wanting to kill Cersei all his life, yet he just lets her walk by him?
- colin_s0
the writers sure are slaughtering the characters before they kill them off
- Ramanisky23
I will say though, props to the sound-design before the battle began. I had that shiz cranked up and it was glorious.
- <this whole season. musical score and sound. f'in brilliant.MrAbominable

- probably was a quicker route given that all the houses between the two points were ashcolin_s
