Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8
About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.

I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that...





For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link

The good guys become the bad guys. Dany becomes the tyrant. The northmen and the unsullied kill innocent people. No one is good or bad in GRRM's world - only shades of grey. It's exactly the kind of shit he would do.

I just wish they'd taken the time to set up Dany's arc more effectively.
This sounds right. Thought I read somewhere that grrm said the show ending would be close to what he'd do.

Cleagan bowl was epic and maybe the only thing left from the original feel....you want Sandor to walk away the victor, but he ends up dead like Ned.

Arya riding off on the horse...does she just want to live or does she have another mission? The only one left would be Dany.

For all the rushed stories I will say this, I don't know what will happen in the final episode. So thanks for the writers for at least that.

They turned Dany into a villain. They set the entire bit with the bells up to establish that what she did to to King's Landing was premeditated, calculated. Cold. There's a word for that: evil. She knew exactly what she was doing

And then they tried to build sympathy for Cersei. Although to be honest that's a problem the series has had all along; book Cersei is immeasurably more evil than show Cersei, despite how much of a moustache-twirler they tried to make her on TV, and the book version's not in any way sympathetic or relatable. But the tears and the musical cues they played? They were trying to make us feel bad for her. Seriously. Cersei.

The 'battle' itself. Michael Bay wishes he could unleash mindless violence porn like that. Because that's all it was. 'Let's watch Drogon blow up a lot of shit and see how many women and children we can fry! And then after we drop some rocks on everybody's dream of Cersi having some grand, vengeful death, we'll turn Arya from fearless assassin to (almost) savior of women and children. And then have her ride out of the fire on a white horse. Because why the **** not!'

It was really neat to watch people stepping on and things falling on Arya intercut with Cleganebowl.

I was telling a buddy that a summary of this episode was everything you could have wanted after Season 1.

Dany, Jon, Arya and the Hound teaming up in King’s Landing to give a brutal death to Cersei, Jaime and The Mountain.

A controversial ending to this story is better than a happy one. I’ll trust GRRM to give a better pace to the ending.

I might be in the minority that didn’t hate this episode. I hated the previous 2 and the pacing though.

The setup to madness could have been better. The side plots like Arya and Cersei, odd and underwhelming. But the madness itself was very well done. Didn't feel mindless to me. The darkest half hour we've seen in quite a few seasons. If anything, it makes me regret more that it wasn't set up better.
