Television Game of Thrones S08E06 Discussion Thread: Burn them all! (the writing staff) | Our Watch has ended

A lot of this is irrelevant anyway.. Grey Worm has literally no reason at all to listen to any one of those fucking houses. When they all pulled that shit he could have just been all ‘ok, that’s great for you guys. I’m going to go execute Jon and slit Tyrion’s throat right here in front of you then bounce. And if you have a problem with that, get at me, I’ll be in Naarth.’


All those other houses are in Westeros, their attachment to the place is set in stone. Grey Worms investment and allegiance to anything in Westeros flew off in Drogons Dragon paw with a knife in her heart. All he gave a shit about was justice/revenge. Instead, after a poorly written handful of speeches he shrugs and is all like ‘oh, well why didn’t you guys say so earlier.’


Just awful awful execution of the conclusions.


I’m still cracking up over how in the span of like 15 minutes in the show we go from Jon making out with Dany in the throne room then shanking her, to Jon as a prisoner, to Tyrion who Grey Worm despises snake oiling the new leaders of Westeros into voting on a king, to Jon peacing out as a free man on the docks of Kingslanding like nothing even happened.


I mean, thank god for an entire filler episode 1 of complete useless horseshit amiright? Its hilarious the shit they fast forwarded thru Vs the shit they spent time on.


As I said in a previous thread -no creator/writer of books or a series should ever willingly want to hand their life’s work over to these shit heels again. It was near painful to see how lost they were at the end of this thing.

Grey Worm should have killed Jon immediately after Jon confessed. Maybe Tyrion too just to clean things up. But he didn't and once he didn't the negotiations with the Northern Forces outside the castle had to take place.

Grey Worm is not about meaningless wars actually. Sure they will willingly die for a leader but that does not mean they want to fight all the time. He and his people are more protection and allegiance based than marauders which one might call the Dothraki. So I see no issue with Grey Worm wanting to negotiate and end to the conflict rather than, yet another war. He was focused on wanting to fulfill his pledge to Missandei and get her back to Naath.

But yes, the show runners horribly rushed this season. They simply could not wind it up quick enough despite HBO glad to fund more episodes. It was clear they have Star Wars and Star Wars only on the mind. Sad.

Cramming and forcing this Jon/Dany love arc with in 15 episodes was an awful decision. It would have meant so much more to have Jorah kill Dany.

GOT fans all season: Whatever, this show has just been bullshit fan service for the past few seasons

Also GOT fans: WTF! I wanted Jon Snow to be king, this is bullshit!

Different groups of fans. But one way or another I think this season managed to succeed in disappointing just about everyone. From people that wanted a by the numbers Jon = Aragon from LOTR ending, to the feminists that wanted to see Dany win in the end, to the people that just want to watch the world burn with a very nihilistic ending. It didn’t deliver on any front.

Jon Snow being king is a major plot point.

Its not an irrelevant event shown on screen only to please the fans.

Cant you see the difference?

No, Jon having Targaryen blood is a major plot point. There's a difference.

Exactly... The people who were giving episode 3 complainers shit are now ironically being the complainers themselves. Anyone still trying to generalize all the negativity are full of shit and aren't being honest one bit.

Anyone who loved what the show used to be would and should be able to admit what's happened here.

When Jorah was exiled earlier did Dany get any more violent or ruthless?
 
That Jon/Dany death scene in the throne room did not feel like Game of Thrones. I felt like I was watching something different. Jon and Dany loving each other is fake as hell, so him killing her meant nothing. Not even the music made it feel like this really was the moment.

And something was up with the frame rate in that scene. It was so weird.

LOL yup. I read an article in the Guardian or some similar publication after episode 5 and it was talking about how the show had betrayed feminists everywhere and all I could think was “are you kidding me?” Two weeks earlier Arya smashed the patriarchy by killing the Night King and taking away what we all assumed was Jon’s destiny. How fickle can some people be?

its because we were spoiled by Jons chemistry with Ygritte
 
Summary of how rushed this all was

EP 1 and 2- Omg! We need to kill the Night King!

EP 3- Kill night king

EP 4- Omg we need to kill cersei!

EP 5 pt 1- kill cersei

Ep5 pt 2- Omg we need to kill Dany!

Ep6 pt 1- kill dany

Ep6 pt 2- now we'll all get along and decide who will rule us with no major objections

It's a meme lol ... someone imposed the clip of Jon and Ghost onto another video - which I think is from a World Series win or something.
