Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
People mad because stuff ain't fitting they head-canon. I'm not saying its the best episode ever, but I was ENTER-fukkING-TAINED.




Arya is a badass, but getting to King's Landing and realizing the Westerosi 9/11 is going down, is GONNA change shyt quick. Even Jon who is Mr. Perfect is frozen with realization when he realizes what is happening. Arya prolly at CTE levels of Concussions...people ain't badasses all the time...sometimes shyt gets real and you just gotta live.




They been alluding to Dany's mental state since Season 2. When she was losing her shyt in Qarth over the ships, then when she crucified all the slave owners in season 4, when she burned up all the Khals in season 6. Even in Mereen she wasn't a particularly effective ruler. Dany ALWAYS had a mean streak when some shyt needed to get done. But she ALWAYS had Jorah to temper her, then Tyrion to give her nuance, Missandei helped with her compassion and companionship, then Jon became the lover. She's lost ALL of them this season. She snapped, breh. She couldn't stick to the plan.
I'm gonna try this the easiest way possible, for all those who say seeds were planted

3 words.... INNOCENT... WOMEN... CHILDREN....

When has Danny at ANY time in the entire series, harmed one of those 3? bytch didn't even head towards cersei... wasn't burning the enemy troops... bytch was flying down over innocent citizens, running for their............. bytch burned the entire city to the ground fam... Please connect those dots for us

Brehs, they made y’all mad because they shirk Danny’s advantages down. All the haters were screaming about how they could sneak up on her a take a dragon out and why didn’t she just go high? LMAO

Then they threw out the Golden’s company and only had a small group of unsullied roll up to the gate with her and you complained that she had shyt now.

It was all just a ploy to lower your guard to just how powerful a full male dragon really was to King Landing brehs.

She got caught off guard by those scorpions the first time, this time she figured out to just go high....like you wanted her to!

20,000 Golden company, all on foot.......once she takes out the scorpions they are legit lunch meat.

So now.....the writing sucks and this was another bad episode?

Your a bunch of miserable ass people.
Military tactic brehs where you at? :troll: Rate this strategy :heh:

Everyone who is explaining the plot decisions.. Dany's turn, Arya's arch, Cersei's death - of course all of them can be explained. But none of these really connected and that is the issue here. It is the subtle details and dialogue that convey the plot. The production remains excellent, but the emotional impact of all that occurred in this episode didn't translate no matter how you justify the plot. That is where the show has been lacking recently, and it is why the books were so important because the writers had intricate details to focus on. It has proved to be a far more difficult task without old man's cliffnotes..

What the fukk was that? :gucci:

Felt like episode made no sense and was pointless. No memorable moments other than finally getting Clegane Bowl. Felt completely antidramatic. Actually looking forward to one last week. Was expecting Cersei and Jamie to die differently, if they are dead. Same with Euron. Seems like it'll be a boring finale. :francis:

No memorable moments? An entire city is dead due to the dragon queen? :gucci:

Im starting to realize that yall have way too high expectations for this show :hubie:

Like I fail to see what yall want to happen considering it's the end of the road.

Episode was :ld:

Varys' death felt like a "let's get this out of the way" send off. They haven't really done much with him lately so whatever.

Tyrion's stock has dropped more than any character:snoop:

Jamie's growth as a character felt pointless. He's just back with Cersei like it's all good. With all the death and destruction you'd expect him to hold her accountable to some degree. All that character development for nothing.

Didn't feel anything when Jamie and Cersei died. Can't have two characters of that magnitude go out that weak.

Why have him get stabbed twice only to move around like he was perfectly fine?Euron stabbing him didn't even matter:mindblown:

Hound vs The Mountain might have been the worst thing the show has done. That shyt was so Hollywood and dragged on longer than necessary. I know the Hound is an important character but not to the level where he deserved a battle like that. We never got Jon vs The Night King but a grudge match that has no real impact on the overall story gets a grand finale:dahell:

Never been a fan of Zombie Mountain. That completely takes the emotion out of their fight.

That white horse/shining light on Arya scene at end:hhh:
