I thought the message was put aside your petty conflicts and get along because death is coming for us all but then they poo poo all over that by having the White Walker conflict resolve in episode 3 and then had them go right back to petty arguments over the throne.

So I guess the message is humans are dumb and petty which to be fair is pretty accurate.

So is anything of note going to happen today? Like, any alternative endings that appear similarly likely to King Bran, so we can subvert some expectations here?

Honestly, no.

The other day my brain was so desperate for an alternative that I started trying to convince myself that something, ANYTHING, other than Bran would happen, that it was all just disinformation and the real ending was truly hidden, but I couldn't make myself become a Bran truther. :smith:

Watching John Wick 3 makes you really realize how badly D&D hosed up by not utilizing the dire wolves but I guess sometimes you've just got to have a big, dumb, pointless zombie bear to work into the plot.

You really don't. They're functionally shot for shot remakes. I think they both diverge in the second season and you could absolutely pick it up midstream.

I guess it works as a fun comparative project.

Nah this is a blast going in spoiled. Same with eps 3-5 where we all knew what happened but not the absolute details around stuff

So 3 was seeing stills of Arya jumping and killing nk and going wait how'd she get there and then seeing the leadup go worse than imaginable
4 was seeing the clips of rhaegal dying and going wait how'd euron not get seen
5 was knowing the bells were going to happen but figuring there had to be more depth to what was happening

6 is going to be a "why did the dothraki disappear and why are the unsullied making their demands then being ok with Jon taking the black" as well as the leadup to king bran being incomprehensible

Does that mean in 20 years we get to read the same obnoxious “no, it’s actually good” articles that I’m seeing for TPM?:bang:

It's still hard to believe why they would choose to end the series with King Bran. Why? Who is this for?

It seems like they tried to go for a controversial/subversive ending, but without anything good to go with it. They could have just had a milquetoast King Jon ending and fans would have probably mostly accepted that.

Either this is a colossal fuckup by D&D (99% chance) or there's something left to be seen:



No Dany on Drogon's back.

E: Damnit, there's a shot later where she's clearly on Drogon. Another colossal fuckup by D&D.

Alright, let's do this
Can't wait to watch (what's left of) the army of rapists and slavers abandon the war-ravaged and defenseless continent ripe for pillaging to get back on the boats they hate and go free slaves instead.

I get the unsullied doing that but they really had no idea what to do with the dothraki and have been spinning their wheels with them for so long.

When was the last time there was a Dothraki character with a name, personality and lines?

Even the Wildlings still have Tormund.

I think she sits farther back than that. What you've circled is the base of Drogon's neck.

Yeah also she practically lies down on him, she never actually sat straight up there. It is within the range of plausibility to assume you just can't see her as from this angle you'd at best see her hair floating around.

Also, so pumped for this exciting finale, I hope you guys are ready to witness TV history!

Coming, Spring 2020, "A Game of Thorns!" Just Oleanna Tyrell yelling at people with her comedic roomates on the lanai. Rosia is from the midlands and very proper! Blancherion is from the sotherlands and is a lustful woman. Together with Oleanna's mother, Sophisteria, they daily conquer the threats of the land with wisdom, and a little learning too.
