Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended
- Thread starter ha_rooney
- Start date
People have been complaining it about the show for several seasons now (not always fairly, I think) so I don't know why they expected to enjoy the finale (although as I say it was much more of a return to the early seasons, so I thought maybe they would).
It's fine to be invested and disappointed but I get tired of the RAAAAGE every time something isn't just as people wanted (The Last Jedi, the Inbetweeners reunion - I mean, what did people expect a clip show to be, for heavens sake?)

I saw it that with Tormund being there, that he was defo gonna go like he wanted in a previous episode. I think it was him going where hes most loved and that was 'part of the plan'.
And on the other side of the coin, people are allowed to express opinions. In fact, we'd have nithing but mindless shit all the time if we just accept everything and anything.
As always, there's a middle ground.
Yeah, they were giving him exactly what he wanted in the end whilst the Unsullied and Dothraki (the kind souls they are) bought it.
So he got his ending at least.
Why didn't he just stay there with Ygritte? Such a dumbass.
I doubt it.
Overall, across all the seasons it was a great show. But this final season was poor. The finale was terrible.
6 episode limit to rush through 3 seasons worth of story. But it wasn't even done with any consistency or depth of thought.
I also enjoyed parts of it.
Episode 2, 3 and 5 I actually thought were really entertaining television (in isolation) and I enjoyed it.
The first episode I thought was pretty mediocre and then I have 4 and 6 down as legitimately bad and not enjoyable to watch. Even in those episodes there were excellent scenes, but overall I didn't enjoy either.
The scene from episode 3 where the Night King walks up to Bran and it cuts to a number of characters struggling was legitimately one of my favourite scenes in GoT history. I'm not here to say it was all terrible.
Bronn was the real hero of the entire thing.
And he ends up master of coins opening brothels left, right and centre.
Legend.

The king beyond the wall!
The writers were always creating a problem for themselves bu just having 6 episodes to explain everything. This season deserved more episodes and with better explanation it could have been a good ending. Last 20 mins felt so rushed , it was like hey you all have 20 mins just do everything quickly and pack up.
I don't mind bran as the king, maybe that is why night king was after him as he always knew he would be the king and rest are pawns. But lack of explanation killed it. Jon snow as a character was dumb but he deserved better or atleast he himself should have said I want to go at the wall and rebuilt it and that's always been my place. His character deserved better.
I fekt bad fir Daenerys. She did everything ti become the queen and then was killed like that. She deserved better. I don't think there was much hapoy ending in that.
Anyways the journey was amazing and one of the best shows that I have seen but then ending will always leave with a bitter taste.
Best episode was episode 3 and the worst was the last one.

Not sure if serious, but ill pretend it is.
Because there was still a threat of the dead and him knowing the Wildlings would attack the wall.
Which is funny, cos he could have set off, waited until they boarded, then turned around. (But guess that means he stays for no reason as he had nothing left to do)
The only thing he actually did rigjt was stab the queen.
And even then the dumbass snitched on himself!
Didnt like any of the first 30 mins of ep6?
7 hours to get through 2 battles and the surrounding politicking was more than enough.
Season 8 was great apart from post-Daenerys scenes, imo. And that wasn't because of being rushed. It was just a poor choice of tone.

He was originally going to, but so many people bitched about him not saying bye to ghost that they had to reshoot.
Now they'll have to do the entire series
When you play the game of moans you whine or cry. There is no middle ground.
is this legit?
He's also Lord of the most powerful and populous Kingdom (now that the Lannister gold mines are dry) in all of Westeros
.I assume Tyrion inherits the Rock and Lannister lands? Tywin would be fuming.
The real heroes were the animals.
Direwolves, Dragons, heck even the Horse and the Polar Bear. Loyalty personified. Let down by shit humans.
Jaqen the horse is still out there. Grazing and stallioning.
Oh yeah, I did. I already said in one of my earlier posts that I was actually really happy for the first 30 minutes or so.
That opening scene was brilliant, really well shot. Tyrion was also fantastic and back to his best, the writers decided to restore his character for the finale after choosing to make him be a tit for the entire last 2 seasons.
The first 30 was 9/10, and then the final 30 was 2/10 and they basically undid all the good work they'd done. Like I said in a previous post, it's like it became a completely different television show and they really had no idea whatsoever how to close it out post Daenerys death.
So... you agree with me.
I don't know but the scene looked very suspect when I initially saw it. I thought it looked like a real rush job, edited badly and the animation was very off. I just assumed they had cobbled it together in the last few days to shove in at the end, but if it's an old model animation then that would also make sense.
is this legit?
If it's not, your post will make even more sense.
Has there been any explanation for that horse that safed Arya at all, anything I missed there, or did they really not bother to explain that at all?
Is Ghost missing his ear?
is this legit?
I'm still holding the copyright to BoJaqen Horseman, ok?
Kind of. Kind of not. As my post said.
Btw that Inbetweeners thing was really bad though. There was absolutely nothing redeeming about it, and one of those 4 that seems in any way sensible and with a smidgen of charisma is, ironically, the one who plays Neil.
Yes. Because it's from season 8 only.
But that won't stop confirmation bias from Game of Moaners.
Bringing a guitar to the party. Euron is just as bad in real life.
Jorah still loyal to his queen.
Jon a miserable twat as always.
Three big bads, Night King, Cersei and Dany, were dealt with in four episodes.
Night King should've been the entire season 8 storyline and then Dany vs Cersei for most of season 9 and then resolve the Dany stuff with two or three episodes.

If season 8 is good for nothing else, its good for the memes.
I'd say that the finale was the best episode of the season.
The best episode of a fecking terrible season, with fecking terrible writing.
The best episode of what had become a fecking terrible show.

Tyrion is photoshopped in.
Sansa is pissed again.
Yep, Euron is still a twat

Hope hes hitting on Melisandre, god knows I would be!
Nope, there's a scene in an earlier season where Jon kneels down and pets Ghost with a similar angle but it's completely dark and the movements are totally different.
is this legit?
