Did Game of Thrones prove that people don’t like unconventional endings?

Watching this scene right now where Ned finds his sister and Jon as a baby. It’s probably one of the greatest reveals of all time in a fantasy tv show and it ends up being all for naught as Jon gets banished at the end of the show. I think this proves we like the familiar cliche ending. Bruh should’ve been King at the end

Game of Thrones ending is not shyt on for being unconventional. It's shyt on for being nonsensical. Even if you kept everything as was, but just have Jon be king instead, it would still be the worst season of any prestige drama ever.

No
We like endings that make sense
Like if the dragon burned jon after seeing him with his dead mother. Instead the dragon burned the throne.

Are you insinuating that said dragon is incapable of grasping the philosophical and symbolic meaning of burning the iron throne just because hes a fire breathing dragon with no background in political science? Thats prejudice breh

shyt was trash and made 0 sense. Nothing about unconventional.

 

[Rekkapryde]

D&D proved they weren't shyt with GRRM's DETAILED source material.

you'd think they would have been able to write some compelling shyt having the outline.

Guess not

I think they were trying to subvert the trope of the kid born into nothing finding out he was actually important, becoming the King and defeating the Big Bad. So they had his sister kill the villain, had his brother become king and made it so at the end of the story his birthright to the throne meant nothing as he ended up with the Wildings, which is like going to live with Eskimos. Shyt was trash

I’ve read theories that the reason why Jon’s ending is so wack is because he’s supposed to die for real in the books. He comes back to life, leads Westeros past the Night King but Faegon (the fake prince) kills Jon (the real prince) and Faegon…having taken Cersei’s place in the book as the King of Westeros…fights a pissed off Dany in a “Dance of Dragons” scenario. Im assuming somehow Dany wins but still goes mad with Jon dying. And barbecues King’s Landing. Then Bran becomes King. That’s what the hardcore book readers think. But because Faegon was never introduced, an important character is missing

 

[Geek Nasty]

I believe so but there were some trash elements in the last couple seasons; giving Arya cheat code skills after 1 year at ninja school and making Sansa General Patton after getting buttfukked on her wedding night for example.

But I think a lot of people weren't paying attention to the story and started thinking Daenerys was a good guy. So a lot of them were upset about how it ended (which IMO was foreshadowed "whenever there are 2 Targaryens one of them goes crazy"). Said it before, but people wanted their snow bunny to have a fantasy wedding but shyt was another way.

The conclusion of Jamie's arc was terrible. And Dany's character shift was unearned, they did nothing to sell her turn to a villain. It would've been epic, if they had done it right.
