    What maddens me is that the story was always grounded in political truths: a ruler cannot be strong if succession is not assured, which is why Dany was targeted by assassins and Joffrey's illegitimacy mattered. Suddenly a Targaeryan with a legitimate claim on the throne can be banished on a promise not to come back and contest things and a king can be appointed who can never produce a dynasty - guaranteeing the civil war will start again when Bran dies. Nice one 👍

      Dude, same and well said. It's pointless and stupid to have a Stark on one throne and a Stark on the other. The point? Especially when one can't breed wtf... The best way to fix that would be to have the actual classic hero (Jon Snow) with the legitimate claim to the throne defeat the Night King, saving all mankind, and having the stealth assassin (Arya Stark) or the trusted hand (Tyrion) take out the mad queen in one of their clever fashions. This would leave Jon open to taking the reigns alongside his cousin Sansa, uniting the entire continent of wildings, northerners, and southern Targaryen loyalists. If the eunuch army got their panties in a twist, then Melisandre could have used Jon's kings blood to awaken one of the stone dragons on Dragonstone, easily wiping out the foreign threat. Uniting the Stark and Targaryen houses is what will bring stability and peace to the entire realm. Literally everyone but the "writers" knew this, but I guess subverting expectations gave them a bigger boner than writing a cohesive and satisfying story that dozens of people dedicated over a decade of their lives to create.

      I’ve been reading up a lot on the Wars of the Roses… which GoT is kinda based on (dynastic wars due to crisis in succession). Problem for a TV show is its theme doesn’t conclude… the wheel never breaks! And the writers had no way of imagining a way out of that conundrum. Same with George M. should Dany rule? Why? Should jon? Why? The only conclusion to war is legacy. Which is why Return of the King ending was so boring.

That leads to warfare and why a Queen bearing sons was always so important. Daughters weren't ideal, but they could reign if all else failed and preserve peace. Jon and Dany would have been able to unite both the north and south with their bloodlines, but Jon and Sansa/Arya would have achieved the same result if Dany was destined to die.

      They made sure that what arguably used to be, and should have been the greatest TV show of all time will be remembered as nothing more than a bitter disappointment, and in a few years, even that will have been forgotten. It will become nothing more than another entry in the long list of dead franchises that we all wasted our time on.

      They just couldn't or wouldn't say it as it is, that it is a pure shit. But a year or os after the season wrapped up, I found critical drinker, and he said it as it is. His reviews finally helped me to get over the shitfest that was the season 8 of GoT. And I am forever thankful to him for that.

      What pissed me the most was the decision to exile John, a person who had always worked for the good. Throughout the series, everything he did was to protect everyone. He did nothing for his own good and sacrificed his life to save everyone and betrayed his queen in the end, because it was the right thing to do, despite all of this, even though he had the legitimate right to rule, love
      Of people and leadership skills, he ends up being banished to nowhere, even if he doesn't become king, at least king in the north, or lord commander, or lord of a somewhere , he is the character who is supposed to get a good ending that suits his efforts and his character development throughout the story.Even in an imaginary world we cannot see a good person rewarded for his efforts!! The scene when he was riding beyond the wall with the free folks was a heart broking ,he doesn't belong to the wild

      Yep. The Wildlings were the Mongols. The Wall in GoT is the Great Wall, ostensibly to keep out Mongol warriors, but actually to keep out Mongol trade and keep Mongols out of China. What was a deeply meaningful story resonant with actual human history and complexity becomes a stupid Hollywood Western trope. "Go North young man!" Just stupid.

      The Wildlings are the Picts (or Scots). That is Hadrian's Wall not the Great Wall of China (pretty sure GRR said something along those lines at one point). Hadrian's Wall was the wall at the end of the world. The Dothraki are sort of the Mongols, though Mongol cavalry were much heavier armoured and had more archers.

I'm not sure if he's simply lost his passion or if he is just incapable of writing a good ending to a book series that is visibly struggling under it's own weight.

    The story of the rise and fall of GoT is like a Greek tragedy. It was at one point the most fucking incredible show to have existed, that had the biggest fanbase in the world who were obsessed with endless theories about how it would end. Wherever you went, GoT would come up in conversation as casually as football. It was a phenomenon, lightning in a bottle. It was arguably the biggest pop culture touchstone of the 2010`s.
    And then season 8 happened.
    In just a handful of episodes they managed to completely crumble the towering monolith they had built. GoT was now a joke, and will forever be remembered as thus. It was so bad it made us question if the show was ever really good from the get go. And if was all because of the staggering hubris of the show's creators and the laziness of the original author.
    Even if it had stuck the landing in a bumpy way, the show still would have been remembered as an amazing achievement. But they didn't so much land, as more like crash to earth and torch the entire runway.
    Thus it will remain as a cautionary tale to all those who want to know how not to finish a series.

    I love how in season 7 Daenerys specifically said that her father was an evil man and she knew what he did wasn't right, and now they try to spin it that she did all this because it's her idea of what 'right' is. So not only did she go crazy overnight, her entire personality and moral compass did a 180 overnight too.
    I also love how Jon lost all agency this season. He got his destiny stolen by Arya and he got his choices stolen by Tyrion and Greyworm. Instead of coming to the decision on his own, and voluntarily going north.

His kidnapping in the north is pretty much what put the conflict in full swing since it led to Ned getting speared in the leg and bed ridden. He served as hand of the king in defense during the battle of black water. As far as everyone in Westeros knows HE IS THE ONE THAT KILLED JOFFREY!!! oh also, HE FUCKING KILLED TYWIN LANNISTER!!! He was also the hand for Daenerys, you know, the invading force that destroyed King’s landing. You would honestly have to go out of your way to not add Tyrion into the book.

    I will always divide GOT between GOT Seasons 1-4, seasons 5-6, and seasons 7-8.
    1-4 were hands down among the greatest television in history.
    5-6 were indicative of a slow decline in writing quality, but still had its share of excellent moments(Hardhome, Hold the door, etc.)
    7-8 were when all creativity and intelligent writing was completely abandoned. Characters gained plot armor, something 1-4 never would’ve dared allow, previously smart characters were dumbed completely down for plot convenience, plot holes the size of the Grand Canyon began showing, and the abrupt killing off of the Night King actually ended the show for me(like, I legit didn’t watch the final 3 episodes of the show, since the Night King’s death killed the last shred of emotional investment I had in the show).
    It’s amazing just how much my admiration for the previous seasons of the show has been completely replaced by disgust and contempt for the laziness of the later seasons quality. It actually puts the Simpsons to shame in that regard.

    • @johnowen9349

      I saw the Night King's death coming from a million miles away. Arya's development screamed Deus Ex. When she pulled that drop knife trick in the sparring session with Heavy-B I remember asking myself "Who is she gonna use that on? Valyrian steel... Night King." I think a lot of the unhappiness with the ultimate story 'twists' come from people ignoring the blatant foreshadowing on so many characters. Jon stayed true to form, Dany stayed on her inevitable path to becoming the very thing she claimed she was fighting against, etc. etc.

      @@johnowen9349 Foreshadowing isn't character development. Also, that knife drop hint and Bran giving the Dagger to Arya in the first place was all made up by D&D. Jon's resurrection had everything to do with him killing the Night King, their fight was built up from the first season (most definitely in the books). You can't just take one instance of foreshadowing and say that it's enough to be believable. Once the writers lost the books, they took it in their own direction. GRRM himself stated that the writers overtook him, which he did not expect. They had Arya kill the Night King at the last minute and ignored everything they created with George in previous seasons to "subvert expectations". They said it themselves, they were really only invested for The Red Wedding (one of the best subversions EVER which... they TRIED with that last season.

    • @muflon8342

      It's mostly because season 1 to season 4 ep 9 adapted the books fairly closely with minor (for the book readers often annoying and maybe cheaper to the plot), not very influential changes - see Talisa/Jeyne Westerling). In the final episode of season 4, there were 2 crucial changes that started the doom of the show - no Tysha reveal and no Lady Stoneheart. Season 5 continued in the same manor and 80% of the books 4&5 did not get adapted. Some characters "followed" their book arcs in broad strokes (Dany, Jon, Arya, Theon, Cersei were kind of similiar though not the same at all, but you could say they were doing what they were supposed to in general), some only very vaguely (for example Tyrion made it to Illyrio and then to Dany's court and met Jorah on the way there, but everything about the journey was different including Tyrion himself, he was severely whitewashed in the, show and Brienne was indeed looking for Sansa with Pod in the books but that's where anything even remotly similiar ends - she travels with different characters, runs into Randyll Tarly and finally gets captured by the Brotherhood in the Riverlands and kidnaps Jaime - yeah, not even close to the show), some were drastically different (Sansa, Jaime, Asha/Yara, Euron) and didn't do even anything similiar to what they were supposed to be doing in the books. Then there were characters and plots that didn't even make it to the show but were crucial (all of Dorne, Victarion, Aegon and Jon Connington). Still, season 5 and 6 were somewhat watchable, though far from the greatness of the previous 4. Season 7 and 8 hit the rock bottom. It's practically unwatchable due to the bad writing. Nothing makes sense. It's not even entertaining bad. It's just bad. Which is a shame given the fantastic cast, music and effects.

    You skipped the part about how the noble families are not only happy to accept Bran (a Stark) as their King, but even do so after Sansa declares the North is leaving- an event that would have triggered civil war in any earlier season. So a Stark will rule the 6 kingdoms even though the land of the Starks just seceded. And that the other kingdoms are fine with staying part of this broken empire that no longer has any central power, despite earlier wars for independence by the Iron Islands and Dorn.

      @LegendInThaMakin 5 років тому +1

      Eh well, of all the things that were a complete mess in this season I don’t really think this was one of them.
      The starks are an ancient people and were kings of the north far before anyone else. They have the blood of the first men. Considering the starks had just defend the realm from the invasion of the night king like they did thousands of years prior, if they say they want to be independent they have certainly earned the right to be far above anyone else.
      Kingship with the starks was such a big deal that when aegon decided to conquer westoros and kept winning all his battles then set his eyes for the North, the king of the starks then (Torren) decided to swear fealty to aegon rather than fight him.
      He was then known as torren stark, the king that knelt.
      No other king at that time bore such a title because they were never kings that long anyway.
      Basically north independence is the most important independence if you look to the history of Westeros so I don’t mind that in the show people didn’t object, it makes sense.

    D&D wanted to give everyone a happy ending, totally forgetting that A Song Of Ice And Fire was never about happy endings. It was about consequences, for one. Remember Ed Stark and how he was loved and seemingly did everything right and by the book (of honor)? Guess what, that's not how the game of throne works, and he died for it. Everyone who made a mistake in the game of thrones was punished for it. And here we have season 8, where everyone can make the most dumb mistakes and not only get away with it, but rewarded for it. D&D really forgot what made the books and the early seasons of the show great. They valued fan service and nice visuals over great story telling. I can' t believe how dissapointed I still am about this. They had gold, but turned it into shit
