Shimrra Jamaane posted:To give D&D SOME credit I think they have attempted to subtlety build up to Dany losing it and going mad queen since at least Meereen but between their execution being poor and their audience simply not getting it a lot of the plot points that were intended to cause the audience to go “hmm maybe Dany isn’t the righteous ruler that she’s constantly making herself out to be” instead made them go “YASSS QUEEEN”. Which the merchandising and marketing ran with into the ground. It is probably this

The poop ending was the one GRRM submitted to D&D

If Dany turning bad and getting killed would make fans mad I wonder how much madder the poop ending would make them.

There's still time - Jon kills her and then she gets strung up for poop flinging while he pouts.

lol I hadn't realized Emilia Clarke was playing Sarah and so the same character as Lena Headey.

It would be better if Dany killed off all her counsel and Jon and ruled as the Mad Queen instead of Jon killing her. Just an even worse queen than Cersei and no one can stop her because all the houses are dead and she has dragons and a foreign army that follows only her rule.

A bunch of Daeny's Northerner and Vale allies realize they're tired of war and don't want to go fight Cersei, maybe Bronn and Jaime use the Chekov's crossbow to kill the non-Drogon dragon. Outside of Daeny goes crazy and wants to nuke King's Landing I'm not sure how they can keep any tension in this plot.

She's done it & Westeros is saved forever! For now...

Why the mountain again? I mean, obviously because it's the mountain, but what was her deal in particular with him? Can't remember what he might have done to her.

I'm going top make a prediction: Dany doesn't go Mad Queen. She dies, and yes, Jon stabs her, because Cersei puts a particularly long-lasting and painful poison on the Iron Throne, and is conveniently dead with nobody knowing where or if there's an antidote. Jon puts Dany out of her misery. Surprisingly, Jon's claim isn't found by the realm to be particularly believable (his brother is having visions, yes, that can easily be proven when he tells you how beautiful you were that night you raped that peasant girl, but that specific vision can't be tested for, and the 'chain of custody' of that book from Sam would be immensely suspicious) and the Seven Kingdoms completely explodes into chaos, so they have to Pray and Bring Dany Back.

This interview D&D gave during season 5 is all you have to know about the philosophy of working on this show behind the scenes: "The story lines move forward and dig deeper as the episodes progress but rarely circle back and almost never pause for reflection. When I asked Benioff and Weiss if it was possible to infer any overall intentionality to the upcoming 10 episodes, they sneered. “Themes are for eighth-grade book reports,” Benioff told me."

I guess that explains why they treat the audience like morons, they can't handle not being the smartest kids in high school honors English.

Seemingly real 4chan leak with clips to boot. Missandei is beheaded by the Mountain, Rhaegal gets killed by Euron. Jon is not really into fighting down south at all. Oh and Bolvar Fordragon. Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 15:32 on May 5, 2019 |

Not gonna read that post on account of *checks notes* its 4chan Anyways... Jon and Dany will keep secret their family history and will rule the seven kingdoms. This will keep the north in the fold and will be a compromiae that keeps the peace the most. Sam will do his maester thing and right it down in a book that nobody will read until a new Ned-like character comes along and this completes the circle back to the first season when Ned looked at the books that were in front of everyone, but they didnt read, and figured out Cerseis kids werent Baratheons.

There is a video of Euron killing Rheagal lol So it looks like Mad Dany killed by Jon may be true and I'm ready and excited for the mess that the rest of this season will be 😂
