OT: Who you g.o.t.

I don't trust anyone on this website to not spoil it so I'm closing this thread

I stopped in the middle of the first sentence as soon as I saw blood raven. I was half anticipating more information in a multi-paragraph quote about some book-inspired theory that might actually spoil the ending.

But I shouldn’t care, because the point of this post is to say that I highly doubt the show writers would go back in to old book content now. Alt Shift X did a great preview to the battle of winterfell and went back in to the lore of the castle, its ancient magics, it as a legacy of Bran the builder, with whom current “Bran” holds a connection...

All for the episode to be Helm’s Deep.

Nah I was withholding any spoiler related ideas I have. Just refinished reading "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" and some of the content, and a clue or two in the book made my spidey senses tingle. But anyhoo - only 29 minutes and we find out, though i doubt there will be any, let along a few, book nods as we approach the ending. I've put all my faith in George to pray Jesus finish the books / that petition for competent writers to re-write the last season. Though, after waiting since 2011 for a new book I think both are equally likely. /s.... but not really.
 
Awesome. Decent recovery after a series of Hollywood garbage episodes. Would have preferred to have some more main characters get croaked, but I liked the Shakespearian ending.
EDIT - generating a bunch of schadenfraud from all the fans who wanted the Disney ending. Sweet!

Quite possibly the worst ending to a show I have ever seen in my life.

So unsatisfying.

Can't wait to hear all of the backlash from fans tomorrow morning. The creators did such an unbelievable disservice to the fans, I'm dumbfounded.

Did you also like to Shakespearian ending to the Cat and the Hat? Or Kazaam?
 
10x worse than Omar getting shot by a little kid in that corner store. Thanks HBO.

The double D's did a terrible job rushing to get to the end so they could move onto their next project. The episodes leading to the finale received the backlash they deserved because of that. What they should have done had 3 full length seasons following 6, to help arrive at the conclusion we got. I'm very content with the ending, just not what they did to lead up to it.

The double D's may have very well screwed over their entire careers.

Their Star Wars films are going to be god awful.

Oh GOT, where did we go wrong. Sigh.
Jon kills worm to get to Dani, who needs to be killed because she is crazy. He runs her through with Valerian steel. He then goes to live in either the North with the free folk or with the Night's Watch, if that's still a thing.
Tyrion ends up on some sort of a council that selects the new king, who is Bran.
Fade to black.

Pretty spot on.

I can't wait to see what happens when they actually have to write something on their own. We got this (the past 2.5 seasons) with the verbal assistance of the author who told the story of a generation. What happens when these clowns have to be 100% original. Watch - they bring back Jar Jar as a main character.

Shame. Shame. Shame.

All I know is that the 8th season has been a major disappointment.

But it’s Bran.

Pre-edit your post said Dany gets killed by John and Bran is voted in. Knowing your trolling nature, there is a 99.8 percent chance you read the spoilers and played it off as a guess. I'm not complaining, I read the spoilers too. But that was bold.

Doesn’t make sense to me either. I thought his whole journey and awakening put him outside earthly concerns. He’s not even “Bran” anymore, so really we are talking about the Three Eyed Raven taking the throne, which would make zero sense, unless the Three Eyed Raven is some ethereal spirit/consciousness separate from its host that is secretly motivated to take over the world

Wish you could bet the field against those odds

Lol. You're not wrong though.

I got the Jon Snow right for the wrong reason.
Him killing Danyreus was an easy call. Had to be him. Her needing to be killed was an easy call. They made that clear last episode, and she had a dream at one point where she was about to touch the iron throne but then walked out and saw her dead ex and her baby. Clearly foreshadowing that she'd die before sitting on the throne and join her dead ex.

I didn't see Jon being a prisoner or the eunuchs keeping the city or him being, essentially, banished. I figured that, after he did the deed, he'd be sick of all of the evil all around him, give up, and want to isolate himself from all he had known. Where better than the free folk of the north.

That was the plan, but I thought better of it and course corrected.

Lord Baelish is great dark horse money

Good god what did I just watch re: Bran

100% called the Danny-Jon thing. I thought it would be a much more dramatic moment with more build, but it’s not the worst way that things could have ended...
 
It was ok. I would have had Arya kill Grey Worm. He was almost as bad as Dany. Then you could have had Jon lead, but I suppose he didn’t want it. The scenes with Jon and Tyrion were quite good. Glad Sansa didn’t bend the knee. I figured Tyrion would be hand again, whoever was on the throne. Got that right at least.

Why do Sam and Brienne get a vote on who rules?

I feel better about them voting compared to
Sansa. Sam and Brienne consistently put in work and made contributions.

Bran makes no sense even being on the list, let alone the favorite. Jon has the best claim, and temperament. Dany has the claim but just went nuts. Gendry has a claim, could fit. Arya has no interest and I doubt Sansa ever leaves the north again.

Tyrion and Sam best as advisors.

Tough
