    tywin is under-rated.... but too family obsessed to be a good king sometimes... and who would follow? Tyrion?

    So they send Jon back to the wall to watch for what again?

    He needs to study the weather patterns up north. Not much knowledge of meteorology in their world.

    I'm pretty sure the Queen of the North and the King of Westeros couldn't give two ***** where Jon deserts. I think the ending showed very clearly that he was leaving the wall and the south behind for good.

    The Starks basically royal flushed the actual game of thrones. A Stark is queen of the North. A Stark is King of the 6 Kingdoms. A Stark is King of Da Real North and a Stark is going to discover North America.

    Wrong. Hes on a mission to club baby seals for their fat and create soap. Hygiene is at a low in the capital still and have you ever tried to wash ash and soot off your body with just water?

    Thought of rewrite ideas while driving to work.

    The long night:
    You have more scenes w/ Sansa talking to Dany about their goals. Sansa for independence and keeping what's around her real. Dany for her visions of breaking the wheel and doing her family line right. The fact that Dany moved North sways Sansa or at least brought her to the table. Jon plays mediator as usual.

    Not sure how to fix the nk mess. Maybe add dialogue or a new flash sequence between him and Bran, like right before nk plunges his knife into Bran, Bran wargs in him out of desperation and because the reception is clearer (bsxposition). Doesn't matter what happens here, except some concrete resolution for the audience to see rather than some BS coming out of weird Bran's mouth. Y your jimmies so rustled NK???

    You could still have Arya plunging it into him. After the first successful thrust from leaping, the NK shakes his head. Second thrust through drop knife, where the original dragon glass knife impaled into the dude's heart (vampire zombie rules...)

    As for the LoL witch Melisandre. She dies saving Jon Snow when the dragon fight crashes him in the middle of zombies. Just like Uncle Ben coming out of nowhere, she does the same thing. Starts chanting something wicked and makes a ring of fire around them. For some reason the fire makes the zombies swarm into it like flies. When the embers of the Ring of Fire burn down, you see the old hag say something prophetic or apologetic (I was wrong about many things, but not this...)while she hands him her burnt up Ruby choker. All that's left is the ruby that he keeps.​

    There were multiple times in the first 15 minutes where I honestly wasn't sure if my tv was broken or paused randomly.

    Obviously, this was deliberate on their part, but it was a horrible choice. And the fact that I am nitpicking as far into a show as cinematographic choices and pacing speaks to how poorly almost every choice was made this year.

    They shorten the season to 6 episodes, but give us extra long episodes, only to have half minute pauses and stares.

    I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen a meme or the like yet that is Tyrion walking through the city in the beginning.

    WHY THE F WAS EVERYONE WALKING SO SLOWLY! And there was no sound. You want no dialogue? Fine. Go outside. There's sound.

    I knew I was in for a ****-show 2 minutes in.

    I just fast forwarded to all these montages. Waste of time.

    I binged the first 6 seasons. I watched 7 as it aired and I thought eh..is it weird I am not excited about it? Maybe I need to binge again.
    Then I binged season 8 and I thought wtf is this? This is something I expected from a nbc show not HBO.

    The show went from everything having a reason to random acts of stupid ****.

    You mean to tell me Bran could have warged into the dragon and prevented a million deaths? At a minimum, he could have just watched from the dragon's point of view and then taken control if Dany went mad with it. But, no, I guess he just decided to stay the f**k out of the way because his endgame was to assume power. Am I wrong?
