This!
Anybody who complains doesn't understand this story. GoT taught you in the very first season:
a) don't get too invested into these characters, they might fukk up and/or die at any moment
b) there are no heros in this story, only people fighting for their interests and people trying to survive
c) nobody is adequately equipt to rule. Those who have good intentions aren't ruthless enough and those who are ruthless enough want to rule to satisfy their own vanity.

There was never going to be a happy end, only disaster caused by a bunch of narcissistic noble families :yeshrug:
I felt the same way about the Sopranos when they were at war with Phil. No one was really better than the other. Phil got all this hatred from fans after he declared war, but Tony was far worse human being

that's not how ned added it up, he came to that conclusion by reading the hair color of a long line of baratheon's (after visiting multiple black haird b*stards of robert)



even if it was "only put in the TV show for xyz", it was not something people forgot, which goes back to your original chest thumping post calling out if people actually watch the show...seems like you should be asking yourself that question

You been watching the show for 8 years and you believe the shyt Cersei says?

Had just as many dap it.

That bytch been crazy. Y’all chose to ignore it. At 16 Sansa was eating lemon cakes. At 16 Dany was burning nikkas and eating horse heart raw. But it’s too unexpected for y’all :dead:

Have you? That bytch been off :patrice:

She also walked into a fire when Drogo died having NO IDEA she was going to make it out. Who walks into a fire?

This very point was contradicted in the Battle of Winterfell 2 weeks ago. That the show wasted 2 episodes hyping up.


Yall stanss are gasping for straws now.

I NEVER thought I’d see the day where a GOT thread looks like a walking dead thread, so many unhappy disappointed fans, this shyts remind me of the All Out War/Negan days :mjlol:


....and I’m one of them, in there and here :martin:

That’s what happens though when you start making all of your smartest characters start to do dumb shyt completely out of character for the sake of rushing things forward along with making things seem really important, and then a non issue when it’s conveniant (like the balistas, iron fleet & the golden company)
Scott Gimple did the exact same shyt to that show, at least WD got a new show runner and improved immensely...this is how GOT is going out tho :mjcry:

Think the mountain can beat a group of unsullied and dartraki by himself brehs.

Couldn’t even fully dominate a flabby and sick hound

You think the unsullied or dartraki gonna go out like the sept fukk boys :dead:

:dahell:

Since when The Hound been flabby and sick? Did you not see The Mountain take a spear to the gut like it was nothing? Did you not see him take a dagger through the eye and keep going? Wtf do you think the unsullied were gonna do to stop that?:wtf:

Plus there were other Queensguards so he wouldn't even be by himself. Don't mistake the Mountain taking his time to teach his baby bro a lesson as a sign of weakness.

Seeing a bunch of similar clips since Sunday, IDK why it's not understood Daenerys was trying her hand at Westeros politics last season.

This scene came after the loot train massacre.

Only reason she even attacked the loot train was because Tyrion and especially Jon talked her out of making a b-line to Kings Landing after Euron destroyed her fleet, their Casterly Rock plans flopped and Highgarden was overrun. She was ready to push Cersei's wig back and accept any casualties.

Both of them betrayed her trust in s8e4, in addition to everything else she lost, thus fire and brimstone s8e5 with no fukks given.

It's another example of her juggling between malevolence and benevolence depending on current levels of desperation. Was it rushed? Sure, but the points are there. I mean, she was ready to go scorched-Earth in Mereen five episodes prior. :manny:
She didn't juggle with anything between episode 4 and 5. She just went mad. The benevolence vs malevolence arc would've been better if she sat the iron throne. She hadn't done enough malevolence relative to other rulers in GoT to make her arc complete via her going mad and burning KL down in one episode.
Dany should have took the throne last season before a gradual descent to madness. That would have been much more bittersweet since the audience gets to see her achieve her goal before seeing her turn into the tyrant she promised she would never be.
That's all everyone's pretty much been saying. But folks keep replying with

Y'all don't wanna see your character go mad.

How could you not see her going mad before this?

There are no heroes.

:dead:
