The throne burning scene was good and would have worked if any of the rest of the season had been competently written. But by the time we saw it everyone was already checked out, so instead you get "ACKCHULLY is a dragon dog smart or dolphin smart and furthermore dragonfire can't melt steel beams..."

LethalGeek posted:There is just no defending the logic of the throne burning scene. There is no context in the story to explain it, it simply happens. My friends and I printed out one of those death pools that were going around online and it had an"Extra Predictions" section. I put "a dragon will melt the throne" because I figured a) or would look cool and b) symbolism. Glad to know I could be an HBO writer since apparently they had the same thought process as me.

Sometimes it just so happens that the diarrhea spraying out of your rear end is symbolic of something, and even the greatest writers can fall victim to this unintentional apparent literary competence.

He also had to be killed by a certain type of blade, and he may not have known that. It isn't like the elfs warned him to watch out for valyrian steel or dragon glass or whatever. He couldn't look up himself in the Monster Manual. He's like a werewolf who has never heard of silver. People tried to stab him before, it didn't do poo poo, so he decided to dress to impress.

The dragons, much the same, simply didn't know that being hit by a pointy object would kill them as they never encountered such objects before.

Facebook Aunt posted:He was suicidal. He never wanted to be the Night King. Job sucks. Life sucks. Suicide by I dunno, he seems pretty smirky when Dany fails to kill him with dragon fire. Maybe his innate trolliness outweighs his death wish. Also lol @ looking up that scene because it briefly looks like Jon might get to do something exciting and meaningful, but NOPE.

Kazak posted:Where did Arya even leap from? Bran and the nightking were in the middle of the God Tree garden surrounded by white walkers In the last table reading they show in the making-of documentary, it explicitly says something to the effect of “Arya jumps off a pile of wight corpses” in the script. But they decided to not show that in the episode so it would be ~shocking~ I guess, otherwise we wouldn’t have gotten those sweet bar reactions. And couldn’t even make the effort to toss a pile of prop corpses nearby so you could at least rationalize it after the fact, even if it didn’t show her jumping from it on screen. Instead we get Arya doing something that is literally superhuman given what is shown on screen. Which is kind of neat I guess and visually striking and purposefully out of nowhere, but mostly just lazy and stupid.

They dropped a few comments in the last few episodes about how the Night King wants to 'destroy all humans' and 'erase humanity from memory' and that's why he's starting with the three eyed raven, and that is supposed to be a good enough explanation for his thousands of years of motivation I guess.

You don't see white walkers ever fight over a stupid knife chair because they are good people and the rightful moral authority in Westeros.

Jon Snow in response to Melisandre stripping off for him and intimating she is DTF (although for her own secret nefarious reasons): "Sorry, but I've only ever truly loved one woman, and she will be the only woman I will ever truly love."   Jon Snow, hours after meeting Dany, who had previously shown no interest whatsoever:
