Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended

At least the music stayed incredible throughout, the track that played when Drogon melted the Iron Throne is beautiful.
 
Wtf was that. Up until Dany dying it was going well. They were sort of fixing the story.

Can't believe I almost woke up early to watch this stupid episode. I'm glad I slept through my alarm.

This season wasn't great, but I still thought it was decent. Even the last episode, I could understand Dany going crazy. But Bran as king? WTF is that about?
 
Has to be one of the worst finales ever.
What even was the point of Jon Snow being a Targareyan?
Bran said he didnt want to be a king and then he's like thats why I came all this way? Wtf?
Tyrion murdered Tywin and was suspected to be have murdered Joffery was hand to a Targareyan and a Lannister also the master of coin and the last alive Lannister. Why the feck wouldnt he be in Sam's crappy book?
Why didnt the other lords demand independence?
Why was it so easy for Tyrion to find his dead siblings?
Where did Dany get the huge banner?
Why was Dany's death treated like an afterthought. By the end of the episode I forgot she even died.
What are the Nights Watch watching?
Why was Bronn who blackmailed Tyrion and Jamie made the master of coin?
Why does the three eyed raven need a master of whisperer? Cant believe Hodor died for this.

Cant be arsed typing the rest of the plot holes. Safe to say D&D pretty much abandoned the show.
Only good thing was Ghost got some love. Which I'm pretty sure was added afted the backlash :lol::lol:
 
It was a decent episode if you just watched it without overthinking things, but a lot of it didn't make sense after Dany died.

Since her body was gone, why would anyone know it was Jon unless he'd be so stupid to actually confess (he'd be stupid enough probably, mind). And additionally, there's no way Grey Worm (and the Unsullied) or the Dothraki would've let him live, he would be killed on the spot if they found out he had killed their Queen. Doesn't make sense at all, and poor choice not to show how it all transpired. Tyrion going from a prisoner to choosing the King in a matter of minutes was a poor choice as well, and Jon staying at the Wall / going beyond the Wall even though the Unsullied had left for Naath is stupid as well, feck 'em and join your family in that case. Arya has been "Stark first" mode all season long and now she suddenly decides to go West "where no one has ever gone"? What the feck.

Bran on the throne is a bit of a disappoitment for me either - why did Jon's parentage matter at all if it isn't him? I guess it was only used to make Dany go full loco but it's still underwhelming. The season as a whole was okay-ish if you look at the big picture (build up - battle with the White Walkers - going South - battle between the great Houses - peace), but it was so rushed that they kinda fecked it up. You could, or should, have made 3 very good episodes about all the things that happened in episode 6 last night alone.
 
Sansa is a cnut btw. Couldn't stand to see that her brother would be king and hence more important than her.
 
Well that was incredibly dumb, but at least it's over.

It's all fine actually, because after saying how dynasties are bad, mkay, they create an old school kingdom for the Starks to have some juicy conflicts with the 6 kingdoms who are all happy to watch Sansa go independent while they are ruled by her crippled brother who most of them never even met.

Really loved the technique of just cutting the scenes D&D cant handle. Jon revealing his ancestry and the aftermath of Jon killing Dany. Brilliant.
Felt zero emotions during the episode read 3 of the books watched the show twice but still couldnt give a single feck about what happened to the characters. So disrespectful, the way they handled GOT.
 
Loved it. Loved the entire series, You're all a bunch of idiots. This is not me trolling.
 
How comes it ends up exactly the same though?

A small council arguing over where to spend money, and a master of coins wanting to use it on the brothels. A useless king not even really giving much of a feck.

Literally nothing has changed in the wheel :lol:
 
Not sure if this is posted.



This time they left water bottle.

Didn’t quite get her opposition to Bran becoming King... the north will be independent but will always bend the knee to a Stark rather than a ruler who might be the best for all the people & would be ‘elected’ rather than have a birthright to the throne.

Yeah that was entirely out of character. That wasn't "Smart".
 
It's not a coincidence that everything went to shit as soon as the directors ran out of GRRM's source material. It's like when Fergie left and we became completely useless.
 
Can’t wait for the new Star Wars movies and the new show D&D are doing - Confederate, about a south with modern day slavery. Both should be fun, especially the TV Show. Those two idiots lost the plot as soon as they ran out of source material, now imagine if they are given free reign on a TV show about slavery. D&D are gonna bring the whole network down

Which was delivered with the fecking double whammy that the Lords of Westeros are now proper right happy to accept that their king should be an outsider from outside their kingdom having spent, you know, several season, fighting against Dany and her foreign army.

Even if you accept the logic presented by Tyrion in the show, which is dodgy at best, that bit makes no fecking sense.
 
:lol::lol::lol: That was hilariously bad. Why are all the conversations so long and drawn out? As if it was written by idiots for idiots.
Unsullied have started a new house even though they can't father any children.
Jon the rightful Heir is banished to the Black and Bran randomly rolls up and becomes King :lol::lol::lol:.
It's actually pretty sad after 10 years of watching this is what we get.
 
There's literally no evidence of the crime so he could easily of got past Greyworm, just said she melted the throne and went for a fly to calm down. He was taken prisoner though so I guess Jon walked up to Greyworm and told him he'd just murdered his Queen :confused:

The dragon freaked out for quite a while which would attract a lot of attention and then carried the body away, and there was a big puddle of blood on the floor + Jon's dagger was gone.

I can't defend any other scene though.. Glad it's all over.
 
D& D getting a lot of shit for the ending but aren't all the main plot points what Martin thought up? Could the books end with a different ruler and fates for the main characters or will it be the same (but getting there slightly differently)?

Your professor left you with key points for the upcoming final assignment.

But you failed using the key points.

He probably doesn't even know himself how to end the story yet.

That being said if we assume the fate of the characters will definitely be the same the way will be extremely different, not just a bit. Also the characters can be completely different from what they are in the show despite sharing the same name - it's already true for some of them.
 
That was so fecking shit oh my god :lol:

Fan fiction level writing combined with being hideously dull. What a combination to end Game of Thrones on.

edit: Just had a quick skim of the thread and I 100% agree with people saying it plummeted in quality after Dany died. Up till then the episode was excellent, the opening scene poignant, Tyrion was back to his best.

Then we got boring council meetings and everything wrapped up in a nice pretty pink bow in completely boring, anticlimactic style. As if Greyworm wouldn't kill Jon for feck sake.

To my mind the big issue was less where the characters were at the end and more how the show got to that point, particularly from the moment Dany got killed.

That whole summit scene basically decided everything and it wasn't at all good.
 
The nosedive after Dany died is pretty similar to the nosedive after they ran out of book material.

That meeting to decide the new king, holy feck, none of it made any sense at all. It was like plot holes within plot holes. Why was Arya the master assassin who threatens to slit people's throats in front of audiences of powerful people even there? Why was bran there? Why is Sansa such a thundercnut?
