I mean, that is how TV works when it comes out week to week. Things making sense or being rectified down the line doesn’t make them less painful or upsetting in the moment. Poor boy deserved all the love he could get. I love that they did go for mirroring the same scene from before just like everyone here was hoping for. And he looked more realistic for this one.
I personally can't wait for the edgelord that goes through ever Ghost scene and measures him to own the libs showrunners.
Overall liked the finale and the season as a whole. I agree with a lot of the choices and where the characters ended up, but it all just felt a little rushed. I was kind of bored for a lot the 2nd half of the episode though. I think the was just a little flat after Jon killed Dany.
I’m sure the size differences are more noticeable if you cut them all together, probably with Nymeria looking the biggest ever, right? I’d definitely rather have a regular wolf that is important to the story than a massive one who can’t be touched for sure.
I’m really hoping some time away from the episode will help me to soften on it a bit. I by no means hated it. I liked a lot of what I saw, but so much of it felt off.
I guess maybe Dany dying or Jon going north again could be bittersweet. I was personally a little sad to see all of the Starks go their separate ways again, but it is what it is. All in all I liked it, something I wasn't sure I would be able to say after last week.
Weird finale to a bizarre season but goddamn I really loved the moment of Dany trying to talk casually about the iron throne and Jon not even taking a second to amuse her
Pretty happy with that across the board. Brienne’s reaction in regards to all things Jamie feels wrong, and i’m not sure if leaving so much ambiguity surrounding bran and his actions or lack there of this season is smart, but overall i’m happy.
Drogon melting the Iron Throne and a random wall in anger was... odd. Unless, like someone said, it was Bran. But then, like someone else said, way bad timing on warging into a dragon a few hours after he destroys KL. Did Jon turn himself in? Would love to see how that played out without him getting immediately killed. Who told everyone else in Westeros to come to KL? Grey Worm seemed pretty pissed, can’t see him writing letters and using ravens and then waiting 4-5 weeks for everyone to show up lol That was a direwolf on Arya’s ship right? I thought maybe she was going the “I’m no one” route but I guess when your brother is king you get some bonus points if you get in a jam (or not). Isn’t it obvious that Drogon would be going to Dragonstone? Surprised the dialogue of where he was even came up except for Bran to be vague in his answer. Also expected Bran to warg the fuck out right then and there to him. Almost thought Drogon was gonna light Dany up and bring her back to life or some shit. Would Jon have died if Drogon lit him up? Can a Targ die by dragon fire? Or would he have to be a pure blood Targ to survive that? Dany and everyone else had no proof Cersei actually died and just celebrated anyway. And the majority of the castle was standing so what made them think she was dead? Only Tyrion actually knew and he sure didn’t tell them before her speech started. What part of the castle crumbled to kill Cersei and Jamie? Tyrion seemed to have a pretty easy way to them and it looked like the roof was still intact from where the bodies were.
Probably the most obvious prediction ever made, but I’ll take what little credit there is for calling it.
wat was the deal with the dragon not being a plot device anymore went from deus ex machina to nihil ex machina
I liked the Starks (all “4”) all going off in different directions. If I recall from the books / early in the show, the history of the Starks is pretty much always set in the north. They rarely leave the north / Winterfell and aren’t really known outside of their lands. So now, you have one way beyond the wall, one sailing into The Who-knows-what west, one as King in KL and one remaining to keep the history going and leading the north. In that aspect I found it pretty cool.
