im watching season 8. The ending was not that bad.... the way they got there is just terrible tho.
I think ppl are just mad that they rushed it. they could've had 2 more seasons easy.
shyt is still better than 90%of the shows out RN
I would watch season 8 over and over before i watch the Witcher or the Wheel of time or that Lotr Bs from Amazon.
I will agree rushing the last 2 seasons did the story no favors. The biggest thing the story needed was more forshadowing for Dany’s heel turn into Mad Queen. That was just unforgivable sloppy storytelling.
But I’m convinced a lot of the complaints about the ending come from the show’s more casual viewers that wanted a Disney ending where John and Dany marry and rule the seven kingdoms and a rainbow is seen over King’s Landing in the final shot.. like these motherfukkers forgot that this is Game of Thrones, and not everyone gets what they deserve, good or bad.
People were mad Bran was picked to be king. I wasn’t. That shyt made perfect sense (and no, I’m not spoiler tagging this shyt). He can see any event that has ever transpired in human history. That’s a God damn leadership cheat code. If there was someone in the United States that could do that right now I’d vote them to be President for life.
People are mad that Jamie Lannister went back to die with Cersei. That made perfect sense and did not reverse his Hero’s Journey. He did what any honorable man would do: he went to die with his love (gotta caveat that that was incest and that’s gross).
Now we’ll get a Jon Snow epilogue series that will give everyone where Disney ending where this man who clearly doesn’t want the throne…gets the fukkin throne.
