Great another show about refugees & current politics. It’s not enough this crap is on every news channel. Now it’s in shows. No escape from reality.
I am incredibly grateful to Game of Thrones for this adventure I have found myself sucked into for some years now. I am grateful for all the emotions it brought me since day one, bitter and sweet alike. I am grateful for all the laughs, all the tears, all the jokes and gags, every single bit of it, I really am grateful and appreciative of it all. It's been just... wonderful.
That said, I am feeling robbed and betrayed right about now. This ending is arguably one of the worst series finales in the history of television and trust me I realize how bold of a statement that is. The terrible violations the characters have suffered this season, the lack of proper resolution to many of the plots and narratives developed over seasons worth of buildup, the seeking of shock value at the expense of quality writing... that and much much more solidified this as an absolute disappointment of a finale, as opposed to the marvel wrap it could've given this cultural phenomenon.
This episode does have its positives, as always the score, acting and cinematography are perfectly performed but I just do not think it's nearly enough to compensate for how lackluster the writing has been, as much as I wish they did. Oh well, sad as it may be, I'll just hold on to the good stuff and hope that GRRM's book, once finished, will tackle the ending in a more coherent, more respectful and more meaningful way. It's been real y'all...
P.S: I'll leave this here lest some people jump me again. This comment is a representation of my own personal opinion, I am entitled to one just as all of you are. If you enjoyed this season and felt this finale delivered what you were looking for then more power to you mate, but that doesn't nullify my opinion nor does it make yours any valid. If you want to discuss or challenge my views, I'd be more than happy to engage you on that basis but if all you have to offer are petty remarks then please keep them to yourself.
Bran: I can never be Lord of Winterfell, I can never be Lord of anything, I'm the Three-eyed Raven.
Also Bran: I'm the King.
wendy's storyline was totally disposable
Man, what a poor episode, lackluster after lackluster. If this is the culmination of the time and interest myself and others have invested into Game of Thrones all of these years, then it is truly unfortunate and disappointing if not almost bordering on an insult.
Such a shame that this will be the legacy of a series that once took the world by storm with its brilliant storytelling and exhilarating plot twists, hardly recognizable anymore when it parades around in a pathetic shell of its former self.
I can't say I'm excited nor even interested in the remaining episodes, at least not when this season has taught me time and again to lower my expectations as much as possible, but I hope they will at least respect what this series once was and offer a conclusion worthy of its story. sigh
At least they don’t have to build a new throne now that Bran is king.
Well, this sucked. This went from being my favorite Netflix-Marvel series to wanting to watch the Breaking Bad episode where Jane (same actress) dies in her vomit so I can fantasize about a less hypocritical ending.
This was worst like GOT's Daenerys. Trish ends up practically being a bloodthirsty hysteric animal worse than Thanos, Hannibal Lecter, and the Zodiac combined, apparently.
This was doomed by the moral hypocrisy of the "you shall not kill" of this Feige-ignored part of the MCU.
What a lame episode. If Trish is going to be like this for all season it's going to get hard to follow through it.
I hope this gets better. I mean, im sure it´s not the same as season 1, now there is a big villain and all. But not seeing the guys in their costumes makes me feel the show as a random drama show. There is not a lot of action neither, so i hope this gets better
FFS this is MEH! Want to like it, but they are making it really hard.
