Blistex posted:Was there a reason given why they needed to get so much plot finished in such a short period of time? It went from a carefully crafted slow-burn, to a drunken teen busting his nut after a 5 minute speed-run. Were they afraid that they were going to drag on too long? That actors would have to renew their contracts and make things too expensive for a season 9? Or was it that they couldn't properly flesh out the material without a book to go off of? it's the one about not being able to properly flesh out the material.

While watching this episode I had to keep reminding myself Cersei is supposed to be the villain and for many (read: idiots) Danny is one of the good guys.

i watched this show right up until i realized that everyone was either horrible or dumb and that i was actively rooting for the mass destruction of the setting and everyone in it i think that this was like shortly after tywin died and no scene was happening where i wasnt wishing for a drone strike (both on the characters in the scene and on me irl) based on the past few dozen pages i dunno if this was the right decision or not now

Now the series lost all subtlety since it caught up with the books, they now just telegraphed really hard Arya will kill Danny. But wouldn't have her off both the Ice-type boss and also the Fire-type boss be considered too thematic?

The dragon strafing back and forth, making multiple passes for saturation burning is a good tactic. It's a good tactic for burning tons and tons of bodies. What a smart thing to do.

The Real Game of the Thrones is all the people who go to hipster bars to watch a TV show and cry over every scene because they know they're being filmed we met along the way to the crowded bathroom during talking scenes with Dany or Jon.

Final episode starts with Dany roasting Jon, Tyrion, Arya and Davon with her Dragon. She then concords up to Winterfell and gets the whole crew up there. Drogon's firebreathe has the effect of a hydrogen bomb and Winterfell is glassed.This all happens in about three minutes. Back in Kings Landing she sits up on the ruins of the Red Keep with her dragon and enjoys a glass of Rhoynish red while watching the Dothraki loot whats left of the town and the Unsullied run laps around the walls. "No more expectations to subvert," she says to Greyworm in Valyrian as he makes a frowny face while stabbing an old man in the stomach. There's a splashing noise and Dany looks up from the pile of children's bones she was chucking apple cores at. Freed from the psychic toll of her brothers Yara has telepathically summoned the megakraken. The final hour of the series is the fight between the dragon and the kraken. Most of it is underwater and it's impossible to tell what's going on. Bronn gets all four of them with a single crossbow bolt and walks away whistling, pausing only to take a piss on the iron throne, which crumbles into dust.
