TF CURES GENERATOR posted:It's pretty amazing how much goodwill the show has burnt in such a short time. HBO gave the go-ahead to D&D for them to have a full season of 10 episodes for Season 8. They refused it. Said they could wrap it up all nice and neat in 6, they said. Lmao what loving cunts

I’m disappointed that they spent several seasons hyping the White Walkers as an existential threat and promoting Dany as the greatest savior for all the kingdoms, and then dealt with the former via Deus Ex Arya and the latter by kind of hinting that hey maybe she’s not so fit to rule after all. It’s not that I object to either narrative’s conclusion, it’s just that they seem very rushed and kind of forced with the remaining time that they have. They could have introduced those arc resolutions a few seasons ago without compromising the overall narrative. At the end of it all, this is basically Tits and Dragons: The Series so I’m not super emotionally invested in how it all ends. Historically, I’ve only been satisfied with how The Shield and Breaking Bad ended; most other serial dramas have usually disappointed either me or everyone else. Also Jon giving up Ghost was an unforgivable crime and I hope he loving buys it for that alone.

I'm gonna add Outrageous Fortune to that list, because it has an excellent ending, but literally no one but me has ever seen it because it's a Kiwi show.

I just hope that Daenerys reputation gets thoroughly destroyed by the end, just so I stop seeing stupid "hehe I'm the real mother of dragons, look at my kids" posts. No, Stephanie, you're just a poor parent who can't control their children.

I've liked some scenes but the pacing was off last episode (like the entire season). They really needed 8-10 episodes or 1.5 hour shows because... yeah.

I’m telling you it’s like Battlestar Galactica Built up all these cool concepts, ideas, and side stories, but don’t know how to write themselves out of it. This season has just been poo poo through and through I’ve been telling y’all. It just all feels rushed and them burnt out and going through the motions to finally finish this

I completely sympathize with the GoT cast and crew tired of dedicating nearly 10 years of their life to one project.

This episode was shot well, had a lot of cool scenes. Could've written it better for sure. Lol @ Rhaegal getting ganked in a minute by 10 scorpions, and Drogon not getting hit a single time by about 200 ships or 100 scorpions on the walls. Very convenient. Overall it was a decent episode. But Christ this was all rushed as gently caress.

I like to think that coming in behind the sun and staying too low for the firing arcs would have worked. But you didn't see any of the tower/wall mounted ones do any sort of rotation.

Overall, a much better episode, but I wish that they had done more long single shots on Cleganebowl to show them actually fighting. I will say that I wasn't expecting Qyburn to go out like that though. That was a very well done head smash.

If every episode this season was like this one Id have no complaints. God drat they needed another season to flesh out this heel turn though.

Goddamnit, another major battle where all we got were characters doing character bullshit, and plot, continuity, physics, and even basic numbers get thrown out the loving window. At least we got Cleganebowl. Now we just need someone to edit out all the jump cuts to the overwrought Jaymie and Circie holding each other while the world collapses around them bullshit to clean it up.

They didn't really have anywhere satisfying to go with that, and it's their own fault. BSG's quality was literally on a continually accelerating downward slope. The first actual episode ("33") is the best one, maybe the best mil sci-fi episode ever, and while the rest of the 1st season kicked rear end, the second season still had promise, and then just steadily diminishing returns.

You know what was cool was all those little blips of green wild fire going off across the city as Dany lost her poo poo. I guess cerise’s death prophecy was bs since it was supposed to be the “little brother” or whatever. They could have had Jaime mercy kill her just before something worse happened but whatever. LOL what’s Bronn even going to do now? Like what possible motivation would he have to come to kings landing and try to collect on any kind of debt? Anyone with half a brain is going to get the gently caress to Essos and never look back.

Would have been cool if Cersei actually just said "gently caress it" and ordered the pyromancers to ignite all the wildfire caches around the city, destroying everyone inside. That would have been awesome, but instead we get Dany doing 75 9/11s all over the city so there's absolute justification for killing her.

We see 3 people alive after the Battle of Winterfell, and woops lol somehow 4k Unsullied and even 2k Dothraki survived somehow lmao gently caress off D&D you hacks. Oh and glossing over getting the rest of the Northern houses on board, the rest of the Riverlands houses on boad. Otherwise how would they have thousands? Also lol @ the Golden Company parking themselves outside the walls of a loving city that they're trying to defend hahahaha D&D give zero fucks about logic, character arcs, about all the plot threads never resolved, internal logic within the world, etc. Oh we need this number of guys to survive even though we never showed any surviving the battle? Who cares, they still have x number of guys, because gently caress you for paying attention and not just mindlessly watching the show.
