Watch the scene again breh. They had just arrived at Dragonstone. Dropped anchors etc... everybody had their guard down. Yall keep referencing this as if Danys purpose was to be looking for ships at that point. She was joyriding and not even paying attention to what was below because she didn't think she had to be. I'm not even sure if we can gauge that Dany was high enough to see them around the bend they were sitting in, but it was a surprise attack at a moment where they didn't think they needed to be worried.

One of the earliest things I've learned in life is if you can see someone then they can see you too. We talking about ancient ships here. Not naval aircraft carriers with advanced anti aircraft weapons. Think about that breh....
Episode was a mess. How they gonna cut off Bran telling Arya and Sansa the truth?!?!?!

When you think about how the direwolves are symbolic of their owners, it is not surprising Jon leaves Ghost. I kind of understood it when watching the show.
So, Ghost, unlike the other direwolves, is completely different looking. He's albino, right- with that white fur and red eyes. He looks like the Weirwood trees almost. Anyway, he symbolizes Jon's b*stard status as a Snow. He's like this symbol of the North, which Jon could claim before though he couldn't claim the Stark name.
The name of the episode was Last of the Starks, and Jon now knows he isn't a Snow either - he's a Targaryean (as far as his bloodline). It's almost like he is breaking with his old identity completely , especially since he has confessed this news to his family, the true Starks.
He tells Tormund to take Ghost back with him up north because direwolves have no place in the south. Sounds like the message they keep repeating about Starks not faring well in the south. We even hear Sansa telling Tyrion she doesnt want Jon to go south because her family doesn't do well there and Tyrion offers up again how Jon has denied his Stark heritage.
Anyway, it looked to me Jon was sad leaving Ghost, like a connection had been lost....or maybe Jon was just sad about having finally embraced his destiny and all the fukkery that is about to come with him going to KL. He was leaving a piece of himself behind, maybe. Then we see "his" dragon Rhaegal get killed....maybe this is all foreshadowing for him or something. I also got the feeling his was isn't coming back to Winyerfell. Or perhaps if Ghost goes back wandering in the great North at the end, so will Jon.
I'm not excusing the underdeveloped writing of the directors but sometimes, in spite of its imperfections, you can kind of see what they may be trying to show....
Or maybe I'm trying to find depth where there is none because of the underdeveloped writing

I don't see a problem with it. No one got a problem with it gets too much praise but as soon as people call out the bullshyt, fanboys don't wanna hear itWe need a separate thread because this has turned into a bunch of people bytching
Either watch the show or drop it
What part of NO SPOILERS OR LEAKS DO YOU ALL NOT UNDERSTAND?
There has already been 4 people banned for spoilers in the "Endgame" thread. Now I see some of you:
1. Openly posting spoilers.
2. Trying to pass spoilers off as "theories".
Do you not understand other people that know the spoilers....know you're posting spoilers?
So when you get banned, don't be surprised. There has been 4 people reported for posting spoilers since last night.

“Even though we have years of lore built in ... ah fukk it lets have Arya kill the night king”
Just after discussing troop movements and their opponents, “lets have Dany forget about the Euron and the iron fleet”
Make decisions on a whim brehs
I'm actually ok with Arya doing that kill, wasn't story book ending type stuff but I can see her character pulling that ninja shyt off. Now, we can argue that doing all that in 1 episode doesn't feel as rewarding, specially considering the stakes the show built regarding the White Walkers.
This goes back to D&D wanting to wrap this shyt up ASAP for no other reason that they just want to wrap it up. They built impossible stakes for Cercei vs Dany and Humanity vs White Walkers, so much so that the only way to give resolutions to both conflicts quickly was a) strip Dany of all her power by any means possible, which meant destroying Tyrion as "the smart one" on the show and b) get rid of the WW threat in 1 gigantic battle because there wasn't any more time and money for anything else.
But the killing blow to the NK has never been an issue with me
Everything about this season has been horrible
They dumbed all the smart characters down for no other reason then to push silly storylines
They’re trying to act like all of a sudden Sansa goofy ass is smart & strategic
They are trying to force this mad queen bullshyt on Dany even though they spent years building her up to be the complete opposite
I haven’t seen writing this bad since i used to watch The 100 a few years ago
I hope these dudes aren’t writing the spinoff because if they are then I definitely wont be tuning in
The Sansa shyt had me
"She's like Littlefinger, she knows what telling Tyrion will result in".
Not only was that not conveyed on screen AT ALL (kinda impossible to figure that shyt out unless you are told so by the creators), but you mean to tell Sana is putting all her moves on Jon's claim, who doesn't want to rule, to save and keep the North? When she already doesn't have any military and fukking Dany up might mean giving Cercei the W? And when she hasn't trusted Jon the whole show and hasn't been able to pull his strings any way whatsoever?
It does seem Sansa will end up keeping the North at the very least, probably having HUGE pull in all of Westeros. But betraying Jon's confidence to pull of a move that wont really change anything is
I mean, Dany was going to become mad queen at this point regardless of what Varys and Tyrion thought or tried to do - and much of what drove Dany mad was because of the incompetence those two showed since her arrival on the continent - and that was going to lead to a confrontation with Jon regardless of what Sansa could do about it.It felt like the nth time D&D were like "welp
" and kept it moving.

Episode was both enjoyable & entertaining. It just feels like the logic and realism of how shyt plays out has been removed at this point. Instead, fukkery, entertainment, and quick resolutions has been subbed in.
It's a TV Show to me so it aint that serious
. I'm still excited to see how it plays out. But I can definitely see the switch from the ultra realism and cause & effect type logical writing seen in earlier seasons. To the now setup and payoff entertainment TV model which is standard fare.
