Them doing Mad Kween Dany is an 'about drat time' moment. It will forgive a lot for me even tho I wish they had built it up more like the books.

But if it's true it is what I've been expecting Dany's end to be for p much a decade now.

Hasn't it already been confirmed by the 100% trustworthy leakers who got hosed by HBO a while back that Tyrion definitely doesn't survive?

The fact they're even on boats when they know euron is out there and has hosed up several of their fleets is hysterical

Like what's the loving point of splitting up


This is the same poo poo they pulled back in battle of the bastards, night king one shotting viserion, etc. Suddenly the heroes are in peril out of nowhere that wss easily preventable and inexplicable!! However the enemy will miss every other shot!!! Such drama!!!

It's really confusing how they're going to just get Rhaegal owned out of the blue like that because, rightly, they've figured that Cersei can't really even have a pretence of winning while Daenerys has two dragons but they didn't have him go out fighting Viserion to the death last episode.

They gave a more dignified ending to the little girl who reads her lines in monotone than one of the actual selling points of the series.



Maybe Euron was yelling at the dragons when aiming and that's why they hit, but he stopped yelling when he shot at Dany.

I am glad that Cersei continues to be the smartest least dumb character in the show by correctly sitting out the battle of Winterfell and spending that time to get more reinforcements and also building more anti dragon weapons.

What I'm saying is that Cersei would've totally won if this was still GoT s1-4

I wouldn't be surprised if Cersei basically does win but a. gets murked by Jaime or b. Dany finally going nuclear and deciding to destroy the Keep/King's Landing is what does Cersei in

There's been so many links to diff leaks that they're all bleeding together in my head r/n and I can't remember if any of them specified how Cersei goes out.

He's not useless, his actions led to hundreds of thousands of people getting nerfed. Where any other character except maybe Cersei would have had a pity party, Bran demanded to go north and get even more people killed. Amazing kid.

I think book Bram peeps on people through the wirewoods so he can only see thing that happen or have happened at a certain distance from the trees. So he can see what's going on in king's landing but not on a boat or the rest of the southern kingdom cause all the tree there have been cut down.

Nobody has thought about this on the show and it will never be brought up why Bram doesn't help.

There’s a flood of bitter Daenerys stans in r/freefolk right now talking about how it’s a character-ruining last-second heel turn and it’s hilarious. I was convinced the show was just teasing it but wouldn’t actually follow through, and that one of Jon or Dany were going to die heroically since that’s the simplest route to an uncontroversial bittersweet ending. I couldn’t be happier to be wrong.

I mean, I don’t expect a mad queen finish to be well-executed, because nothing has been since they were left with nothing more to work off of than a napkin of GRRM’s hastily-scribbled bullet points. It’s all been big dumb spectacle for awhile now. But at least it’ll be an interesting clusterfuck of an ending.

To be fair everyone knows killing dragons is just like whaling, but pointing upwards

quote:

Harpooner Ishmael (Corey Sevier) joins Ahab (Danny Glover) and his crew on the Pequod, in this instance an armored land boat that hunts for dragons. The seven-strong crew ostensibly seeks the precious "vitriol", a highly explosive liquid substance found inside the fire-breathing winged creatures, which powers the mythical realm they live in. Ishmael joins their quest, and soon learns that in fact, Ahab's mission is one of revenge on a particular great white dragon that decades ago scarred and injured him, and killed his sister. Forced to hide from the sunlight due to the burn wounds on his body, Ahab now tries to kill all dragons, and especially the white one. Conflict arises through a romantic entanglement between Ishmael and Ahab's adopted daughter, Rachel (Sofia Pernas), which causes hostility from the jealous hothead Flask (Larry Bagby). In the white dragon's lair, Ahab's secrets are revealed and Rachel must choose between following him on his dark quest or escaping to a new life with Ishmael. She chooses the latter and in a final confrontation, Ahab's spear, which was tied to his foot, becomes entangled in the White Dragon's neck. The creature flies off with a screaming Ahab, until he is slammed against a rock pillar and silenced. The white dragon flies off into the distance, with Ahab's body clinging on to it.

The worst part is D&D will be able to point at season 2 and go 'but look guys we foreshadowed it all along!' due to their added vision of the Keep in ruins. But it doesn't count as foreshadowing or build up when they also removed everything else from the House of the Undying that leads toward Dany being even more mentally unstable than her bloodline has the potential to make her. You can't point toward her ending that early in the show, then not build up to it at all. It's lovely how unearned this is going to feel, but I'm still excited for it either way. It's much better than the alternative which was me assuming they'd change Dany's end to please fans.
