Game of Thrones (HBO) TV Show • Page 593

I took the last shot to be a clear indication that he's joining Tormund and living north of the wall. But again, they purposefully left it ambiguous.

 

is it the same actor that just happened to grow up well? or did they recast?

 

Literally one single person at that council had power when the series started so what lol

 

Loved Dany making that speech in a foreign language, loved Tyrion's scene with Jon just after he's arrested.

Still think Dany's downfall was a little to expedited which made it all a little bit hollow, especially her death, and it should have felt more like a tragedy

 

Remember when I laughed and said Edmure might not as well exist a few days ago and then Sansa made it canon?

 

I was linking to the dragon bit, the other tweet just shows because it's in a thread

 

That was one of the greatest pieces of fan service in the series. Up there with "thought you might still be rowing"

 

My sister and I were both tryna figure out who that guy was til sansa said it lol

 

that part is amazing, yes haha

 

A pretty consistent theme in the entire show is the importance and power of story. Going back to season one we see Sansa acting on stories of what the court should be like. And old Nan telling stories that drive how Jon and Arya act. The stories behind the Rains of Castamere build legends. The white walkers were just a story, etc.

Tyrion’s not incorrect that narrative drives action in the masses. We’ve seen what false narratives have driven actionwise in the last two years alone here.

 

By going west?

 

Wasn't the first scene of the whole series some Wildings running away from some WW beyond the wall? And the final scene is the Wildlings walking back out there. Liked that.

 

all the way west to the east coast of essos.

 

I swear I started a post then deleted it over an hour ago and then it repopulated when I responded to that one

 

They mirrored the very first shot of the series with the gate coming up and us seeing who’s on the other side through the grates

 

The grass coming through the snow north of the wall was a nice touch

 

but what if the game of thrones world is flat!

 

My friend: “THIS SHIT FUCKING SUCKED”
Me: did you expect Daenerys to die?
Friend: “Well yeah”
Me: then what did you think was going to happen next?
Friend: “I don’t know but fuck this”

This I feel like is a conversation with many, many people.

 

Westereros

 

delete this now

 

Personally I don't even see what was bittersweet about that. The books will undoubtedly shed more light (and end differently - looking at you, Bronn) but the general landing spots for everyone leaves me with little to object about. Still fuck D&D for turning down 20 episodes. That was so needed for this.
