Also he can psychically sniff out any assassination attempts, leading to thousands of years of peace and prosperity okay that actually sounds a lot better than what i was imagining

They ended up making their stand behind a tiny flaming ditch instead. Everyone deserved to die.

Qyburn turns himself into the Night King 2, which is why Jon goes and takes the black again.

Qyburn has spent the past few episodes inventing gunpowder and all these plebs are going to kneel before Cersei until she accidentally kills herself trying to do a cool trick with a flintlock pistol.

After like 18 years of reading and watching this stuff I'm kinda over the entire grimdark setting. People doing anime gently caress off moments like arya suits me just fine. The only thing I am legit mad about is the Dothraki being snuffed out like candles, it was a cool scene, but drat these guys owned and they should have been more effective. The entire battles over the last few seasons have been visually appealing but strategically idiotic, so this was just another prime example of exactly this.

After the trenches were lit, and the wights hadn’t started crossing them and were just standing around...why weren’t there archers unloading on them?

Dany really should just have burnt the red keep into a second Harrenhal and end then burn the fleet and then just settle on the iron islands. Tyrion is pretty drat terrible of an advisor.

The Battle of the Bastards was solid. There was only a bit of "doing something because it's cool instead of tactically sound". Three years later and I still think about that episode. I was so excited hearing about the siege of winterfell, especially when I learned it had taken 55 goddamn days to film. Like that is an incredible amount of time to film a fight. But whoops, this is what we got.

Those fake spoilers are great because they've got Jon rejoining the night's watch to protect the realms of men from the absolute nothing that's north of the broken wall. GoT fans are dumb as poo poo.

Also, Ramsay was onto something with his Twenty Good Men. Theon's Seal Team Six troupe actually killed more zombies than anyone else and they actually held a formation for more than two seconds.

The nights watch has basically just been symbolic exile for hundreds of years anyway. It's not like anyone headed to the wall 10 years ago had any intentions of saving anyone from an undead invasion, they were just trying to escape their debts/crimes, as is Jon in the spoiler
