The Game of Thrones Thread (With Spoilers)

... Oh.

Well that was one way to do it I guess.


Lol master of grammar though.

 

f'ing Bran...

 

Didn't the last three-eyed raven live for hundreds of years before the Night King killed him? Is Bran just king forever now?

Also, definitely thought Tyrion was going to argue for the kingdoms to be broken up now that there wasn't an Iron Throne.

 

I found the ending satisfying enough. Some of the transitions were rough, and I wasn't too satisfied with how they handled the scenes after Jon killed Dany where everybody met, but I am satisfied with everybody's ending ultimately.
Bran has the most historical knowledge and foresight to be the best ruler of the kingdoms.
Drogon 'killing' the iron throne and blaming it for Dany's death was especially powerful. The entire scene from the moment Jon walks up to Drogon all the way through Drogon flying off with her was powerful.
Ghost got the love he deserved.
The whole Song of Ice and Fire book thing was lame, to me anyways. Too cute for its own good.

Serviceable episode, rough around the edges. Not shit.

 

that was so bad. no words to describe how shitty the last episode was. shameful

 

That was lame. Weakest ending to any series ever.

 

There were some good parts. When John killed Danny... I knew he was going to do it, but then for a second I was convinced he wasn't actually going to do it, then boom, stab.

But the rest, idk. Ended way too neatly. I thought this was GOT, season 1 killed off Ned Stark who we all loved. I would have preferred a less happy ending, like breaking bad.

 

Is there even a Nights Watch anymore or was that "banishment ' purposefully giving Jon permission to sidestep being King and to go live with the Wildlings?

 

Na naah...nanana naah...na na naah.....

 

I could have sworn that the Dothraki were all snuffed out during the fight with the wights? And also where did the few thousand pristine unsullied come from? Thought they lost most of their strength again at the Battle of Winterfell?

And coming soon to a screen near you - "Call Me NoOne: Arya Goes West"!

PS - Can someone explain the bit about Tyrion rearranging the chairs at the small council table? The comedy in that bit (the book, Bronn's role/paying for brothels first, etc.) was a little painful...

 

Kind of amazes me that Dan & Dave could get away with this. It's true that HBO offered them 10 seasons of 10 episodes, isn't it?

And these dudes single-handedly caused the show to founder by rushing it like mad and phoning in some nonsense, because they were eager to get onto Star Wars.

They should be seriously embarrassed.

 

Bahaha, so Bran wasn't so useless after all.

Lame ending. From Jamie/cersei's death to Bran winning out, Jon's banishment, all of it.

 

How oddly prophetic dude.

I didn't think it was that bad....at least there weren't any WTF moments. I imagine this is the closest to GRRM's intentions that we've seen for a while.

People gotta get on with it (i.e. life), Jon claiming to be the rightful ruler wouldn't have worked (who would've believed him after the murder) & he couldn't really have been forgiven. I'm quite sure Bran knew he'd skip town with Tormund & Company. It's a fitting plot point.

Tying up the loose ends is kinda necessary (Bron as master of coin? Okay. Brianne as leader of Kingsguard? Yeah.) Yes it probably could have been done better, but the ending made some sense to me at least. If anything it makes me look forward to the final books that much more.

 

Kings' Landing being a warmer place than Winterfell, water is more appropriate than coffee (or was it for fire-extinguisher purposes in case the lizard came back?):
