I didnt even hate Sansa and Dany. It was lovely until Sansa turned up her "Yeah but also gently caress you" meter and then I was on board

So Dany never tells anyone that Jon is really a Targ. Tyrion fucks up at some point and gets executed and Dany passes his position as hand to Sansa to placate concerns about the North. poo poo gets real in the South, Dany goes a bit too far and is captured/killed in battle. Jon carries on the fight because Cersi is evil and Euron is no peach. Jon dies along with Cersi and Euron. Because no one knows Jon was a Targ and Sansa is Dany's hand they decide the line of succession for the North goes through Sansa and since they hold the south Sansa should sit on the throne.

Groovelord Neato posted:problem is they spent last season teleporting everyone around to get people into place when they could've taken their time and then had one last full season. at this point it's just get on with it. plus if the set up is this slow the next four episodes are gonna have to again zip through poo poo. There's no time left. You either get that or you get Grum's version that will never happen. I mean yeah the teleporting is bs. But D&D have an outline without the details for the last parts and have a deadline. The show is good OP.

NowonSA posted:I feel like if the crypt does have proper fully intact bodies in it and they didn't remove or burn them, then that is some major idiot ball on the part of everyone at Winterfell. It's probably gonna happen now but man, that's just awful. Tyrion, squinting to read sign: “ ‘Don’t...dead...open inside’? What’s that supposed to mean? Guess I’ll open it.”

Sydin posted:Jorah, Grey Work, Tyrion, and Theon are 100% gone. Kinda got vibes for Arya, Davos and Jamie too but we'll see. Everybody else is a coin flip. I assume Dany and Jon are gonna make it out at a minimum, also probably Sansa. You guys are forgetting a lot of narrative beats in your death predictions, and the showrunners are predictable with those. Bronn was sent to kill Jaime and Tyrion, there has to be drama there, so one or both have to live, for instance. Cersei has to meet one of her brothers again too. Etc.

Darko posted:Jaime should be fine, I expect an ironic Cersei killing from him. Davos has no narrative purpose, nor does Jorah now so they're gone. Oddly, I think Theon is okay for a bit. Oh, I forgot Cersei. Yeah, I foresee a Mad King-esque death for her, complete with one of her own Queensguard running her through. It would be oddly full-circle.

What happens when the Night King plops down next to him on a dragon. the dragon blows fire on his dick and he damage deflects, no-cock lvl 15. Stuff like that really is dumb, at least have other folks also volunteer, or explain better why they shouldn't

In fairness, what is left to tie up? You got two to three solid long episodes to wage this battle. Then it's an episode or two of the aftermath and who will take the throne. Don't think it'll be that rushed seeing that the last three episodes are nearly 4-5 hours combined.

Anyway, celebrating this new episode by watching the Battle of the Bastards again. That entire sequence is a work of art. What are y'all's favorite moments on the show? I'm thinking about the Arya/Hound tavern scene, Hardhome, Tyrion in last ep of season 4, the Varys/Littlefinger original scene in S1, the wedding in S4, and I'm sure there's some I'm missing but I'll think of them later.

Ginette Reno posted:the Jaime moment was good I guess. The rest of the episode was hamfisted poo poo tier dialogue that belonged in a Marvel movie. C'mon, there is no more reference material and we're on the last leg of a series that started in 2011. You can cry about it being hamfisted, but most people want to see these character interactions happens. Yes it's exposition, but we're at the end. If it didn't happen, then there'd be no character driven sequences. You're looking at the wide plot. Look at the individuals they brought together. So many of them were crucial to the plot and development of the show. If we don't have a few minutes of exposition, then we as the audience will never get a satisfactory resolution.

Who else is left not at the battle? Just Cersi and Euron, and Bronn. There’s just the two locations left, and probably just king’s landing after the battle.
