Trying to imagine Breaking Bad ending in a similar style.
Hank finds out about Walt and goes to confront him right then and there. Jessie Pinkman shoots Hank. Next scene Walt is telling Saul how Marie reacted after hearing of Hank's death. Star wipe to Gus looking out a window, then falling down some stairs resulting in his death. Here come the Nazis! Jessi tries to give them meth to go away but they try to kidnap him. Walt shoots, killing the Nazis but dies in the crossfire. End. |

Yeah I know that part but the Star Wars thing seems like a "scandal" 2 me....... Show runners purposefully ending the show way too quickly so they can "run out their contracts" and get Star Wars money...

I only say that half sarcastically. Makes logical sense, but if it were me, I would be the one to finish out GoT at 10 and live the rest of my life as a comperable cult hero. On the subject of the show ending: I feel like I did when Annaconda came out. I went to go see that movie alone when it actually went to theatres, and was disappointed it was nowhere near as good as it was hyped up to be (and even moreso that I wasn't able to snark at that shit with anyone MST3K style), but what perplexed me the most was the end. In spite of the shit that went down and *** SPOILER: show Last edited by Tom Guycott; 05-21-2019 at 03:26 AM. Reason: ***...specifically at DrA's request. |

What was your reading of the ending with Jon?
I’ve heard different interpretations; he was helping the Wildlings return home before then returning to the Wall was one of them. My interpretation was that he ended up as King; King Beyond The Wall. |

Meh. It was left open so he could show up in a spin off show if they could pull it off.
I'm done with all the theories and speculation. Show is over. Turn out the lights. There is no Prince who was promised. |

I’ve seen literally nothing spoilers wise on Facebook. Maybe you need to evaluate who’s in your timeline (send Grey Worm after them!)

The wall was a fake idea by the midget to get John with his friend and to live with the people he enjoyed the most.

My favorite part of the season was when they tried to convince me that the Lord of Light resurrected Dondorian 19 times so he could throw a sword at a random white walker

My 2nd favorite part was when the white walkers were turned into a side plot and that was treated like a chore that had to ve completed before the series ended.

I like how Grey Worm is executing soldiers in the street because they followed cersei.
But when Jon kills his queen, he's like "nah we goota take this guy prisoner." And why would greyworm respect the custom of the night's watch? He's not from there, why would that be adequate justice to him? And why did they even bother if all the unsullied were just going to fuck off to wherever the fuck anyhow? What the fuck happened to the Dothraki? |

I would have cared more about the spoils if this season were better written and I didn't have my expectations whittled away week after week. Given everything, it was resolved better than expected, but that doesn't neccessarily mean it was close to great. |

It seems situational. Like this? This show is done. And people don't care so much because of the rushed writing atrocity. Meanwhile, if we got something like a season 3 of Luke Cage (yes, I just made myself sad saying that), I'd prob'ly tag the hell out of every response I made just in case anyone accidentally stumbled in the thread.

As.it pertains to the throne i dont overly care that they went the way they did but my issue is it was comoletely unearned and feels like rhe choice was based soley off of trying do what people least expected.
Which made it cpmpletely unfulfilling |

People consume things at their own pace these days. The gift that streaming has given us is its freed us from the tv guides demands on our time. We need to adjust as a community to what modern media consumption looks like. Its not much to have a little courtesy. I was walking out of avengers and everyone around me was talking about the movie but there were people in line we were walking by in horror as a sea of people gave away all the best bits. Thinking of others takes 2 seconds but unfortunately it requires you to spend 2 seconds thinking about others. |

Again, rushed pacing, but it was actually one of the smarter things done. Jon was exiled again- back to where he started, except not voluntarily this time. |

Grey Worms character wouldnt have cared. He'd had started a war over someone doing a play about killing Danny

With the "Star Wars" thing, though, it seemed kinda ironic that Dany's speech seemed a lot like the First Order scene in Force Awakened, even down to the giant House Targaryen banner behind her. Granted, a dragon would have been slower than a neo-death star, but same diff. |

If written consistently Grey Worm should have marched on Winterfell and face fucked Sansa to death with a bag of lopped off Unsullied baby dicks

Yet another problem of rushed pacing. There is like 2 seasons worth of shit going down in the last 3 episodes. There shouldn't be so much "room for interpretation" because of shit writing. |

So there's no point in a night's watch if anyone can just go through a hole in the wall somewhere else.

Well it's a fucking long wall but indeed, not as useful once there's a great rent in it.
