Why is everyone hating on the directors/writers and acting like GRRM isn't directly involved in the show or hasnt divulged how the story unfolds/ends up? Its not a case of 'oh no we've overtaken the books, lets make our own shit up'

Are you thick?

All moaning about book material.. i bet none of you have actually read them. The show has almost always been different from the books in terms of delivery anyway.. even some key arcs are massivly overlooked or just completly ignored.

Blah usually just ends up like mr strawman with randos on here but hes the only one talking sense in this thread. Fucking retards stop watching.. or stay playing on reddit.


I can understand not liking something but some of the reasoning is so asinine and ridiculous. The finale could be the most perfect episode of any show ever and the same people will say the same generic gripes and bitches.


For example, the show has shown insane accuracy with bows since Season 1. People were hitting human sized targets from insane distances. No one complained. A 300 foot dragon gets hit by a 20 foot arrow and somehow that is unrealistic and poor writing.

If social media was around back in the day it probably would have changed the outlook on a lot of movies and shows just due to idiots going deep down the rabbit hole.

we know the book and shows is different but if you watched season 1 to 5 and compared them to the final season we have been waiting 1 year and a half for its underwhelming and writing makes little to no sense compared to what we were used to having


cant deny this final season pales in comparison to previous ones season 7 was meh but still better than this garbage


also the walls and ballistas and all the crap is just nit picking its everything in general if it was only that like lol there just so much shit that makes no sense

No. It's not underwhelming. You and idiots like you just spent so much time imagining crazy bullshit that was never going to be in the show and now you're upset it shockingly isn't in the show.

now you're putting words into my mouth

i came into this episode with no expectations whatsoever and all i have to say the episode was shit

if you think differently good for you i'm happy you like this final season



I get it, the writers are subverting expectations: instead of murdering characters they're murdering the show itself. Clever.

Won't nitpick the intricacies but my biggest issue is it feels rushed. The downfall of the NK should have been better developed and written considering the gravity of the villain. That should have been a 3-4 episode development with more than just one quick battle.

I almost feel like they are just trying to get it over with. I love the show but think they should have developed the last two episodes into 4 episodes and focus on some of the reasoning/drama of certain big shifts like Danys attitude.

They had two years...
