HBO's Game of Thrones - Final Season VIII - 2nd Thread

[ohiostate124]

Only an edgelord would want the NK to win in the end. Take over and kill a lot of characters people actually give a chit about? Sure. Win? Nah.

I’d prefer your second sentence to be what happened but at this point, the NK winning would be better than what we’ve gotten.

[DASBUNKER]

That's not even fair tho. Anyone would snap in her current position.

They already portayed her as a power hungry, manipulative kunt so theres no going back.

They haven't really. That's just dorks clinging to their mad queen theory.

Any Dragon Lady carnage in episode 5 has been well justified by the last 1.5 seasons.

its no theory, its clear as day on the last few episodes. The jealosy over snow claim to the throne, disregard of peoples life in kings landing, exaggerated crazyness over watching loved ones die etc..

Only kalesse fanboys shut their eyes to the truth, dat bitch is gone

[thehardg00dbye]

How it should have gone:

Ep 3 - lose at Winterfell.
Ep 4 - fighting retreat down the Kings Road by the fleeing survivors
Ep 5 - Cersei realising (too late) she should have sent her troops North and allying with what survivors are left by the end of the episode
Ep 6 - NK kills everyone. Last scene is him marching towards the sea to head for Essos.

This is pretty much the way i wanted it to happen.

It's 100% justified. Brb going from sex slave to conqueror. Lost 2 world beating dragons and tens of thousands of soldiers to save the world and now your lover threatens your position.

With Dany haters its always "she's g0nnA tuRn MaD qUeen brO!" for the last few seasons. Whereas any viewer with a brain can list everything she's sacrificed and lost up to this point.

The thing with Jon is cheap tension btw.

[ohiostate124]

Is it justified? Yes and most agree.

That won’t save her though.

[thehardg00dbye]

One of the only things that I am looking forward to is Cleganebowl.

This.

Yes its justified but it doesnt change a thing, she wont just go back to normal again lol they (the writers) wont sit her in the throne due to her actions. Everyone with a brain cell can tell they wrote her character that way this season. You'd have to be obtuse af to think she has a chance of being queen now.

[CaliSuperSport]

^The hype for Cleganebowl is seriously misplaced IMO.

People have been talking about it for a few years. Years of hype for something that'll probably amount to 40 seconds of meh action. It's not like these dudes are Ninja Assasin or Li Mu Bai.

Of all expectations to subvert, that should be the easiest and most realistic one. Just LOL at them getting the chance for a 1v1 showdown in the middle of a war, just because the Hound wills it.

I haven't really seen anyone expecting her to get the throne. But I'm semi worried what twist they're gonna go with.

Didn't read the freefolk spoilers so I'm in the dark.

It's not because she's gonna go mad, it's because she's an impulsive'entitled little brat. She is a poor candidate for the iron throne. It should be Jon. I would honestly rather have the Night king win then have anybody else. That being said Jon is next level cuck boy now.

Jon would be a borderline puppet, srs. That or he could be usurped. Danaerys has seriously had the most prolific development arc so Idk why people still call her entitled. She went from meek little girl to conqueror.

He's exactly like Ned. He'd make a decent hand among a trustworthy council, or Warden of the North.

[DASBUNKER]

They did Jon dirty this season... almost turn him down to cuck levels, I have little hopes of him being king now.

In the other hand, they been hyping Arya and even Sansa hard af this season...

[ceizer1985]

Aw fuk more whinging

[Vhagar]

Arya and Geandry will rule. Mark my words. Stark-Baratheon throne.

Snow is in a pathetic state and kaleeszzzeeea went full targaryen.

Arya doesn’t want a title

This isn’t happening

[CaliSuperSport]

Aw fuk more whinging

mb brah. Ahem.....

"oh mY GaWWWD! I claPPeD wHeN GenDry prOpOsEd to ArYa!!"

[theACEofSPADES]

So I gave in and read the spoilers on reddit

Spoiler!

If true, they completely fuked Jaimie's character arc. wtfman

[DASBUNKER]

Arya doesn’t want a title

This isn’t happening

by that logic jon doest want it either so....

[wickedman]

In to see them cap off this show with the worst ending imaginable.

[Muzzlrpress]

I just read your sig. That explains a lot. Most rulers are puppets just enacting what their counsel advises or true masters dictate. That is unless they are a tyrant or dictator. The only reason she has gotten where she is was from being lucky. Lucky to have an army of Dothraki and dragons given to her. Lucky to get the unsullied on her side. She freed slaves which is awesome, but she doesn't work. Hopping on a dragon and playing red barron isn't admirable. She can't even begin to defend herself in a hand to hand situation. She can't make wise decisions for herself. She lacks experience. She has a short temper. She is irrational and fixated on power at the cost of everything and enything. There is nothing to her. No substance or hard work. She's determined, but why? Not because she even believes at this point that she would be best for the realm, but because by birthright it's supposed to be hers. A birthright she no longer has. I honestly think GOT would be better without any of the Targaryan story arc. No dragons.

I would say it's understandable, but not justified.

Other characters have gone through massive trauma (Jon Snow was literally murdered, members of his adoptive family have been murdered, and soldiers of winterfell died in battle, the commander and friends of the nightwatch were killed by other members of the night's watch, and one of his best friends were killed fighting the nightking.), and still he hasn't become genocidal.

They've been showing for some seasons that she had a bad temper and narcissism, that needs to be kept in check. Though overall she is a benevolent person.

Like IRL, when people experience trauma, their bad traits come to the surface.

She's suffered a lot of trauma recently, and so that's the pretext for her 'mad queen' tendencies to take center stage.

She doesn't have Jorah nor Misandrei to temper her, and she's Tyrion and Varys have lost faith in her too.

Brilliant arc, IMO.

[Coal Man]

Why the phuk make a new thread now. Show is almost done anyways.


Edit: and when it's done it can pretty much FUK OFF.

[BUFUbrah]

Are the children of the forest all dead or what?
If there's any left could they make another night king and try that storyline again haha

[bartosh]

In.


Looking forward to the resolution of the GOAT season of the GOAT show.

Spoiler!

lol

[BetaAsPhuck]

Entitled because she believes it's her destiny to rule, she's believed that since Season 1.

She's been a benevolent person, but I think she has always walked with the sense that her ruling Westeros is a forgone conclusion, and everyone else just needs to accept it.

[rectifryer]

Cersei apparently could have taken on the NK by herself so none of this fukking matters.

ThE eNeMy WaS uS aLl AlOnG

Everyone as written deserves to die. I hope the fukkin crow whisperer **** birds all over everyone and pulls the moon from orbit just to push humanity to the extinction that the action of natural selection would have incurred if not for the plot condom piece of chit light lord's random and meandering meddling.

How fukking ironic. The show went from people dying than you care about, to everyone living and you not giving a chit.

[thehardg00dbye]

She was never a sex slave. She was in an aranged marraige where her husband the king of his people would give it to his queen rough style until they "fell in love".

[CaliSuperSport]

fukkin lol

A birthright she no longer has. I honestly think GOT would be better without any of the Targaryan story arc. No dragons.

She's a "chosen one" character archetype who also given a hero's journey arc. She wasn't lucky to get the Unsullied, she traveled to Qarth to even offer to purchase them. Then she killed their old masters and asked if they'd fight for her as free men, which they agreed.

Then she was captured, threatened to be turned into a widow, and burned down Khal Moro and his crew to win the loyalty of the new Dothraki tribes. She's literally been through more than anyone in the show including Jon...lol.

Look I used to hate her in Season 3 too, but it's clear she's been through a lot and her character has grown.

She was never a sex slave. She was in an aranged marraige where her husband the king of his people would give it to his queen rough style until they "fell in love".

>raped
>not a sex slave

pick one. btw that was another hurdle her character overcame. Remember her learning how to seduce Khal Drogo instead of being his sow?
