Only because season 7 was so bad. Nothing happened in the first 2 episodes of this season. I am not going to say much more about the battle due to spoilers but what an abysmal ending

 

It’s hard to explain without giving spoilers but will try;

All GoT has been about is the scheming, the brutal way which people die and then the fear of what’s North of the wall.

For the first 4 seasons when it followed the books they had it perfect. It shocked you all the time. Red wedding, Neds death etc etc.

Now it’s more about who they think the fans want to be killed and who should kill them. Now the Night King was supposed to be this all powerful warrior who we didn’t know much about and have been waiting why he was so desperate to meet Brann. In the latest episode him and his men do nothing in the battle and the way it ends? Garbage. Done for the fans to like it. And that’s why it’s Hollywood for me.

It had been one of the best tv shows ever but it’s losing it lately

 

I really dont understand the critique of the ending it was BRILLIANT!! completely unexpected and completely un-holywood.


SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!

The point of the end was that it was under a weirwood tree where the night king had been made. He was created with a dragon stone dagger and ended with valerian steel. Valerian steel was created with hammer blows and magic spells, therefore its to symbolise one form of magic cancelling the other. The dagger which was used had a valerian steel blade and a dragon stone handle. It was setup from the first episode. That is just the best storytelling ever.

 

checkout InDeepGeek on youtube he has some fantastic analysis

 

Brown eyes, green eyes, blue eyes

Melisandra had said the same thing to Arya earlier in the story but she said brown eyes, blue eyes and green eyes on that occasion. It really shows that this was a GRRM decision because the actual storytelling since the departure from the books has been completely under par.

 

My favourite characters are Sandor Clegane (The Hound), Arya Stark, and of course Tyrion Lannaster.

The Hound and Arya together is always a brilliant watch. Should hate each other, but the unlikely chemistry they developed when travelling together in earlier series was brilliant, tinged with a black humour

 

Talk of spin off shows now and one which will
Explain the Night King and who he is.

So don’t expect them to explain it in the final few episodes

 

Never seen any of it, not into fantasy stuff at all.

 

Thanks for the input.

 

Not sure this thread is for you

 

So who was H?

 

You watch City, Don't you ?

 

I wouldn’t say rushed, just far too much filler. After the likes of Littlefinger or Olenna Tyrell we’re sharply bumped off because they had no role in the final throws, I accepted that on the basis it made things more streamlined to concentrate fully on the final season, instead there’s been loads of unnecessary stuff that’s just taken up air time.

 

Personally, I'm still loving it

 

Anyway, my kill list for the final two episodes:
Yara to kill Euron after he kills Cersei.
Ayra to kill Daenerys after she kills Jon.
Sansa to finish up as queen.

 

What would have been the point in bringing Jon back from the dead? Just to gather an army to kill the white walkers?

 

Thought last nights episode was poor again to be honest. No spoilers as i'm sure most of you haven't watched it yet.

I just don't think its as clever as the earlier series. Again, it's rushed.
