why would there ever be another night's watch now that the scary ice men are dead and the wildlings are friendly?

I've had people block me on Facebook for posting, on my own status, that the last season of a show I've gone to bat for for years is terrible. I own every season (except the last) on BluRay and even bought season 3 twice just so let someone borrow it before season 4. I never read the books but I was a huge supporter of this show getting a fan base so they could keep making it.

"Why do you have to ruin things for everyone?!"

By posting the obvious flaws in logic and drop in writing quality I've had some GoT fans question their favorite show which counts as a personal attack. To question season 8 of GoT you HAVE to hate women, by the way.

If you strike Tyrion down (it's not that difficult lol) then he will become more powerful than you can ever imagine.
I assume maybe the leak meant "arrested" rather than "executed"? Unless its out of order.

this leak is pretty similar, but has a more plausible ending

Waltzing Along posted:

- Opens with a mass cremation after the Battle of Winterfell. Characters mourn the deaths of their friends.
- Cut to the victory celebration. Tormund praises Jon and Arya for winning the battle. Dany looks on with envy. Gendry can't find Arya at the party and goes out to search for her, but Dany meets with him and makes him Lord of Storm's End.
- Jaime praises Brienne and while playing a game... <something I don't understand> they make out and end up having sex.
- Gendry finds Arya and they kiss. Gendry wants to be with Arya, but she tells him she does not want to be with him.
- Dany and Jon talk about his true identity. Dany does not want anyone else to know about it as she will lose her claim to the Iron Throne.
- Tyrion and Jaime meet with Bronn, who has come to assassinate them on Qyburn's orders. Tyrion tells Bronn he will pay double of whoever sent him to not kill anyone. Bronn heads back to King's Landing (?)
- Jon, Arya, Sansa, and Bran talk about Jon's true identity.
- Everyone is separated from Tormund. <something I don't understand> Jon gives him Ghost.
- <something I don't understand about not hurrying to King's landing but going anyway>
- Arya leaves Winterfell <something about The Hound following her?>
- Tyrion talks to Varys about distrust and betrayal (?).
- Dany's army marches on Dragonstone, Missandei and Grey Worm travel by ship. Dany rides her dragon, while Jon is on land.
- On the way Rhaegal is shot with arrows in the chest and neck and falls into the sea. Missandei is captured and taken to King's Landing (?)
- Cersei crams innocent citizens inside the Red Keep to prevent Dany's army from entering. Her reasoning being that Dany would have to kill citizens in order to let her army through, and thus she would never be accepted as a queen by the people of the Seven Kingdoms for committing such an atrocity <according to a leak a crush occurs during this scene and Arya and The Hound are present>.
- Dany leads the army to King's Landing to allow Tyrion to negotiate with Cersei. Cersei orders The Mountain to cut off Missandei's head. Greyworm looks away and Dany's blood runs cold as she watches.

- Euron's fleet takes down Rhaegal.

- Jaime betrays the North. Missandei is captured.

- Dany's army captures Jaime. Brienne tries to talk to him but he refuses.

- Sansa tells Tyrion about Jon's lineage. Tyrion tells Varys.

- Varys betrays Dany because he thinks Jon would be a better ruler.

- Cersei has Missandei executed.

- Dany has Varys executed. Dany assaults King's Landing and it's one-sided as hell.

- Tyrion begs her to show mercy but she refuses.

- Tyrion frees Jaime to try to get Cersei out of the city.

- King's Landing gets wrecked in the battle. Drogon burns Euron's fleet.

- The Hound fights his brother. They both die.

- Jaime fights Euron and kills him, but Jaime is mortally wounded.

- Jaime makes it to Cersei and they die together.

- Dany is executing everyone in King's Landing. Jon and Tyrion are upset.

- Dany has Tyrion arrested to be executed for freeing Jaime.

- Tyrion tries to convince Jon that his family will never be safe because his lineage makes him a threat to Dany's rule.

- Jon tries to talk to Dany but she justifies her actions.

- Jon pledges himself to Dany but then stabs her, then surrenders himself.



A council gets formed to decide who the King should be. Tyrion gives a speech and everyone votes on Bran to become King. The end.



In the epilogue, Jon takes the black again for killing Dany. Arya leaves. Sansa rules the North. Bran oversees his council of Tyrion, Davos, Sam, and Bronn.

the leaks do contradict each other somewhat since if Tyrion is electing new king he's probably also not executed

one could be fake ending scene though he definitely gets arrested for execution at least

Which is odd. Like, he didn't need to get involved with the Battle of Winterfell. If he'd just waited an hour everything would have been sorted out since he controls all the wights, etc. Either NK is stupid or he's an impulsive and brash leader.

Also if the Wights are able to climb up walls why cant they shoot/throw weapons.

I think this really is what in noise me so much about it. Best response to pointing out these absolutely egregious storytelling flaws is just turn your brain off and enjoy it and at worst it's a personal attack on them.

people don't seem to understand that you can enjoy something or appreciate what it once was and lament where it is now by applying critical thought to it.

Making Daenerys go batshit insane would be a pretty cool and good Arc, if for no other reason than to say look women can be just as shity as men

It turns out that after all the nobles die, the surviving "Winterfell guard extra" has the best claim to the Iron Throne and is crowned King. He serves his reign as he has for many years - without getting any speaking lines.

Saying GoT is badly written is hate speech against everyone who watches it.

Saying Dany is not a good character is sexism.

Everyone wants to leave her multiple times u til she magics.

Probably stronger in the books
