Game of Thrones (HBO) TV Show • Page 431

I mean, whoever would be willing to fund it would know it has a dedicated fan base now, so maybe they'd be willing to pour the money into it needed.

But I'd have a hard time imagining anyone else playing most of these characters.

 

Yeah I think they’d be at risk of fan revolt if any characters are too different

 

Eh, they're gonna reboot it eventually. It's just how media works, regardless of how passionate/large the fanbase for the original is

 

It can't happen before the books are finished or GRRM dies, that would be fucking dumb

 

I just rewatched and really my only criticism is that it feels like more people should've died which I know is the annoying nitpick of this show for the last 4 years or whatever but seriously at least one legitimate major character should've died it really feels like. I still love that all the prophecies and theories were wrong and Arya killed the NK, can't imagine arguing that that isn't cool and thus that this ep was not as good

 

You could argue Theon has been a major character throughout the show. Fallen off a bit the last few seasons but he has been a major character for most of it.

 

Alfie Allen didn't carry this god damn show for eight years to be called a non-major character.

And Jorah also died. Two characters from the pilot. Three from the first season. I'd call that significant.

 

My biggest complaint is that the longest episode of the series wasn’t long enough.

 

They couldn't kill:
Dany
Jon
Tyrion
Sansa
Arya
The Hound (needs to kill Gregor)
Jaime
Bran

But anyone else was fair game imo. This would have been a good send-off ep for Tormund and Brienne/Pod

 

wait so is House Mormont rip?

 

I feel like people who died aren't tier 1 or tier 2 major characters at this point in the show. Feel like someone at least Brienne tier major should've died. I guess Theon could be that level but in that case two from that level should've died. I mean almost every single major character in the series was present and almost died like 8 different ways, it really felt light on deaths given how many people were there and how much danger they were all in. It doesn't make it a bad episode or anything

 

I guess they were more B tier characters. But still main.

Probably something like this and definitely forgetting some.

A: Jon, Dany, Cersei, Jamie, Arya, Sansa, Tyrion, Bran
B: Jorah, Theon, Brienne, Davos, Hound, Sam, Bronn
C: Edd, Beric, Yara, Mel, Pod, Varys, Euron

 

I think Brienne dying would've been very significant and emotional, but I'm also glad she didn't die so she'll be around to see whatever happens in King's Landing

Also no way Theon and Jorah aren't main characters

 

They better just all live at this point.

 

alfie is best used in small doses, this episode is a great example of that. idk any point in the series where he "carried" the show.

 

“Theon...you’re a good man. Thank you.”

Ugh

 

Is killing off random “tier 1” characters a good thing? Just to reach some kind of quota?

 

We did some out loud thinking about this a few pages ago, I think in the show world they definitely are all gone

 

have you seen the show?

 

It would be super random for people to die in the final battle between life and the literal avatar of the death of humanity

 

There is still nearly 4 hours left of the show. We’ll get the deaths.

 

Yeah I mean I'm not necessarily trying to strictly categorize them I'm just trying to reference a rough idea of these things to get my point across

 

The previews for next week show Euron getting down on one knee lol

Also I hope we get appropriate goodbyes to Theon, Edd, and Lady Lyanna.

 

i hope the whole episode is just people carting corpses into graves. i hope thats the whole rest of the show

 

They'd need to add another full season to get them all done
