Hard to take ratings later in the season seriously because of the hate train


I don't think 4 or 5 should be that low, but they really dropped the ball with that ending tbh.

you know what would've been dope

when the dragon cranked the fire to burn jon and switched to the throne


i was hoping he would burn jon and jon lived because he's a targaryen then when the dragon see that jon is still standing there somehow bows and lets him ride him and then whatever the fk dont care better then having the dragon burn the throne for no reason and fly off


i was hoping for dany to stab jon before he would get the chance, THAT would have been a twist ^_^

Perhaps not the perfect ending, but I'm pretty satisfied over all.

This has been a great series and I've really enjoyed the journey, even if the last two seasons have been an undeniable step down in quality.


indeed, seasons 7 and 8 are below the rest but still top notch overall

the shitstorm will settle, so many randoms crying right now ffs :lol:

now one can only pray for the winds of winter

Dragons were said to be perhaps more intelligent than men. After all, the dragons were symbolic creatures. They symbolized weapons of mass destruction, the state of magic in the GoT universe and the supernatural. It was only poetic that such a symbolic creature would melt the now-meaningless Iron Throne, because the human who both gave meaning to it and whom Drogon acted through was gone. He was destruction, but he was also a plot device, and I think he fulfilled the symbolic plot device role when he destroyed the throne, as if he were the embodiment of irony. The show used resurrection as a similar built-in internally coherent plot device. The dragon is analogous.

I may be overreaching, though. I just like to believe there to be deep meanings behind artistic choices :D

For the last episode, you could check on IMDb

Maybe it's far-fetched, but i like to think him being a Targaryen is what gave him both leverage against Dany and made Drogon accept his approach to the Iron Throne which allowed him to kill Dany. It's like his resurrection was meant to draw Daenerys and her dragons to the fight against the Walkers, but this time it was the writer's doing, and not the Lord of Light.

Of course there will be some people defending it. Who do you think is giving all those "reality" tv shows enough ratings to stay on the air? It isnt smart people.

The unsullied immediately left. Not sure why they are enforcing Jons banishment tbh.. without the unsullied there literally everyone else would want him to be king, either of the realm or the North.


This is true but Jon does not want it and he would agree with the current leaders of the realm. Jon is honorable.

Jon becoming king would force the unsullied to go to war with the kingdoms, even if they KNOW they will lose... so much has already been lost and that is exactly what they are trying to avoid. Jon would never take the throne knowing that one more person's blood would be spilled.

Just because he's a targaryen doesn't mean he's there to bend to his will. He is a motherfucking dragon all powerful and wise even though he doesn't speak. He mourns the death of his mother,that is why he burnt the throne out of anger and sadness for all of the humans. The throne is what sent her into madness and in turn caused her death.
