Welcome to the Drama behind the scenes show, I’m your host Deffinition and it looks like it’s not just regular people who are still disappointed with the way that the finale of Game Of Thrones went down. At July’s San Diego Comic-Con, Seth Rogan was a part of a panel to discuss his work on Preacher and where the show was heading in the upcoming Season.
The Preacher panel was due to take place after the Game Of Thrones one in which writers D&D were going to answer questions alongside the cast and talk about the process behind the show. However, they both cancelled last minute probably because of the backlash that has circulated around it this year and this left a lot of people involved with the organisation of the event in a bad situation as they had to scramble together schedules to try and work something out.
Needless to say, this angered a lot of fans, most notably Seth Rogan who had the following to say about the two and the show’s ending.
Man I just found this hilarious to be honest, the petition thing absolutley killed me and him talking about reshooting the final season which was of course a massive new story a couple of months ago when the show was out. I’m really glad that more people with platforms are kinda coming forward and voicing how bad they thought it was instead of just the fans as this kinda gave some of the cast the hump and they slammed people who supported the show for the best part of a decade as toxic even though they were offering up legitimate criticism.
Honestly it’s good that some in a position like Rogan is called out D&D because this was getting hyped up as the panel where everything was supposed to be finally cleared up but the fact that they no showed it just really cements that they don’t have respect for anyone’s opinion if it’s negative. They were kinda showered with praise for ten years and then as soon as people lobbied a bit of negativity towards them it kinda made them run for the hills. I actually think it’s a worse look for them that they didn’t show up as had they went to Comic-Con and stood behind the final season then most people probably would have respected it but now it’s just another big controversy that surrounds the entire season.

DA BOUL BLACKLUNGZ yes, yes we did.
Wtf
They all watch that poo?
Hardly “completely destroyed” the writing- u are pathetic
@@BelleRiverHeating dont you dare sassafras season 7.
Season 8 was bad enough to consider the possibility it was deliberately bad, not sure why but for some reason D&D may have shat on it, maybe to revenge on people they no longer needed to please, or maybe their new Star Wars deal (which they were booted from) had something to do with it, it wouldn't be the first time rival production companies sabotaged a show.
"I held the door for THIS?" - Hodor
@Jacob Sirak yes
dude!
Hodor lets Bran die -> Bran doesn't tell Jon about his lineage -> No strife between Dany and Jon -> Million murders don't happen
Best thing Hodor could have done is not hold the door. RIP Hodor, who's biggest mistake was hordoring.
@Jacob Sirak Actually, in the House of Black and White, there is a scene that shows that she could have wear a face of a living person. I think it's when she become blind.
@MUFC wtf you talking about? Here we talk about Game of Thrones.
I can't even go back and watch my favorite parts of GOT because I know how shitty it ends up. That's how bad season 8 has ruined it for me..so damn sad.
Same man, season 8 has forever tarnished the GoT legacy. It's like someone taking a dump on the Mona Lisa, there's beautiful work underneath, but you can never ignore the smell of shit that lingers around it lol.
#Truth. I'm in the same boat man. This was one of the biggest shows ever and now I don't want to talk about it anymore.
Yeah!
expat74 Right?! I used to recommend the show to people. Now I can’t because I know they’d just end up disappointed.
Sameeee i tried rewatching it but i actually Couldn't be bothered
Anybody notice how NO ONE talks about GOT anymore? Chatter about shows slows down once it ends, but it's like the whole world decided to pretend it never existed.
exactly !!! it's a fake hype !!!
Yet nearly every scene in the Sopranos is still analysed until this very day.
Sopranos and the wire analysed in full, scene by scene - almost every day
They're trying to build hype over some prequel or whatever- I personally don't give a fuck.
Once bitten and all that.
Exactly the last Season ruined everything
Thoughts and prayers to anyone with a game of thrones tattoo
History Eraser Button Oooooooops!
LOL
It's a book series too, jsyk. Way better, imo.
F in chat for ppl with GoT tattoos 😔
What about the newborn daughters who were named Khaleesi. That actually happened
Season 8 is so bad it ruins the re-watchablity of the previous 7 seasons..... That's how terrible it was. It LITERALLY makes ABSOLUTELY no sense how awful it was.
Let me make sense of it for you:
The writers wanted so badly to make the last season unpredictable and unexpected that they ended up giving us a story NOBODY wanted. I will share one example. Dany’s character in season 7 began to fall in love with Jon and she started to change as her trust and admiration for him grew. Her shift to a psychopathic ruler in season 8 simply didn’t make sense. Her reaction to Jon’s parents reveal and the decision to kill kings landing were both hated and unwanted by fans. If they wanted to have Dany go insane they should have laid the groundwork for that in season 7. You can’t just make a character behave so randomly and expect viewers to buy into it. The whole finale was just cringeworthy lines for each character. The only good thing to come out of it was cleganebowl
Definitely, rewatching the previous is not worth the annoyance. The writers tried to make the show "their own". For pride and glory.
@@Ry-ss5dz Agreed 100%. That 180 degree turn in Dany's entire character was some of the biggest Character assassination I have ever come to see on TV. And as a Dany stan, I wouldn't have minded the Mad Queen plot, but that execution was some of the biggest Bullshit I have seen.
And let's talk about the second biggest Character assassination in the show, which is Jamie. We were all meant to sympathize with him as the story went on. Going from Asshole, to Humble, To tragic hero. Even though he's an asshole at the beginning, he grows to be a sympathizer character. All of his past actions were literally for the good of the innocence. And just as we were made to believe he was gonna have the greatest redemption story of all time, they also pull another 360, and make him go back. WHAT THE FUCK?!
Dany and Jamie's character arcs were my favorite, and it's baffling how shitty the pivotal parts of their story were executed. I sometimes like when I'm not given what I want, as long as the story, characters and writing is consistent, but I wasn't given any of that satisfaction. Instead, I got to extremely ruined characters and "Bran the Broken"
GOT- Ruined
Thats exactly how i feel ..
I understand a lot of criticism for season 8... But are you seriously saying you didn’t see ANY signs of Dany going mad in previous seasons? That’s on you, mongoloid
"I don't hate GoT because it wrote itself into a corner. I hate it because it stopped caring".
Dreammirror Brony exactly they did not give a damn to those millions who were supporting it year after year for a decade .
Like the last season of Lost
@@marineshtf9954 lost was left up to your interpretation, which still sucks but it isnt unheard of.. GOT was a phenomenal show with a shyt finale
Wrote itself off a cliff*
i used to love GOT now im not even remotelly interested in thwe HBO GOT prequels .
Season 8 reminds me of Titanic.
Not the successful movie Titanic, more like the unsuccessful ship.
And here I thought the unsuccessful ship was Arya and Gendry.

nice one! That musical sketch was better than whole season 8!
@@aromusbaspet9032 children of the forest and the night king
Sign... were there that the final season was going to fail 😔
I truly hope D&D will never get a chance to work on anything ever. What they did is borderline criminal.
Get out ur feelings ya it was bad not criminal just shit
One of those dudes hadn’t done anything movie-wise before, besides having authored/co-authored 4 rejected manuscripts. The other wrote X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Giving those guys any kind of responsibility in the first place was the criminal act.
It was really selfish of them :/
@@notcompletelynormal I'm guessing HBO never anticipated how popular the show would become and when it did they thought it was because D and D were talented when really they were just copy pasting GRRM's masterpiece from a book to a script
@@e.g.4483 it was just not greedy...it was them being oversmart and thinking people are fools
I don't know what you mean? GoT was canceled after the 7th season.

Freak Clarity DAMN RIGHT Freak! DAMN RIGHT!
>implying GOT wasn't trash ever since season 5
YIKES.
@@DomenTheChief I mean I haven't read the books, so I'm not as bothered by storylines being different in the show, but aside from that I think Season 5 was good, season 6 was mostly good, season 7 had 1 good moment, but was overall really bad and season 8 was a total mess
Worst part about the series finale was that lousy wall destroying cliffhanger...
...cliffdropper? Whatever. You know hollywood, theyll reboot it in 10 years anyway
GoT, it turns out, was just an elaborate case study of how NOT to end a show.
Hbo as never ended any show good.
@@Mackdez I don't know Band of Brothers and Chernobly ended pretty well
Mackdez even sopranos wasn’t nearly as shit as got
yeah because NO show has EVER fucked up in the same manner b4
@@Mackdez No, they ended Breaking Bad perfectly. And Breaking Bad still has the title as the best show on TV. Game of Thrones could've taken that title, but D&D fucked it all up.
D and D should apologize.. I'm actually surprised they haven't yet.
I just finished the show and they should really do more than that.
I've never seen a shit like season 8
Because they are blinded by fame
@@neessie1 And greed. Remember when people did things for honour, not for coin...
Apologize what makes you think they care. They fled like cowards no heart, no soul or passion in the world for the show or its audience.
@@willlatham7861 Fame brings greed
The worst part of this is that it has forever tarnished GRRM's masterpiece, even if the books finish brilliantly, this is what people will remember.
Yeah, in hindsight it's very understandable why GRRM waited so long to find directors that would realize his books in a way that would not turn it into a cashgrab that slaughtered the source material. And the series actually started very strong and promising.
Unfortunately though, turns out D&D never really had a grasp on it:
Small deviations in Season 1 that were born from time and budget restrictions grew into unnecessary deviations in Season 5, escalated once D&D had no source material left, and ended in a needlessly haphazard and nonsensical wrap-up in Season 8. And just the kind of rushed unsatisfactory conclusion that GRRM was afraid from when giving someone the rights to turn it into a movie.
I've head he spend a whole day with them exchanging experiences and impressions about the books.
The final question he asked them that sealed the deal were their thoughts about John's parents.
What he thought to be a verification of their deeper involvement and understanding merely turned out to be their simplistic glee about unexpected twists.
The kind they used in excess in the final Season in particular, undermining the understanding of the characters and their role in the story rather than supporting it.
@@LinkEX They never understood any of the themes or deeper meanings or even understood most of the characters, this just wasn't clear in the earlier seasons because there were only minor slip-ups and actually many quite brilliant scenes were added, especially Tywin and Cersei scenes that weren't in the books and seemed to show that they really understood their characters...what happened? I believe D&D also said at one point that "themes" are for high school textbooks which is such a disregard for GRRM's work which is literally based around themes and foreshadowing and metaphors etc.
I don’t think so. Martin’s work is still undoubtedly brilliant. It’s just kinda hard to recommend considering it’s not finished yet
I don't think so, i hope GRRM erases all the bad taste of the season 8
Unfortunately, the GoT legacy will always refer to Season 8's poor writing. What a shame. Actors did a great job with material they had, but the writing in Season 8, oh boy.
Phoenixrising season 7 was just as bad but we were naive and thought season 8 would blow us away
I don't want to sound like a dick but GoT became shit in season 5. I will never understand how so many people don't see seasons 5,6 and 7 for what they actually are.
I knew the show was fucked the moment they skipped the entire part of Dany crossing the Narrow Sea, and instead had her make land in the first fucking episode of Season 7. It was all downhill from there. Yeah, there were some great scenes, the Loot Train scene being absolutely breathtaking.....and then plot armor.
Those two idiots ruined what should have been iconic from start to finish. Look no further than their moronic obsession with making a zombie polar bear that added absolutely nothing to the story. Nothing, but they wanted it, so they made it, and yeah.
Can we pretend s6e10 was the ending of GOT
@@crashboy0 season 6 was at least decent, it had its good moments. Season 5 was a drag and season 7 and 8 went off the rails bad
George RR Martin warged into Seth Rogen to get his anger out. He even got the hat, beard and the glasses almost right.
BA AB he even has the beard and hat :D
Sailor hat Santa has no grounds to say a damn thing. Even he doesn't know how to end the train wreck he has written himself into.
Hahahahaha
😂😂😂😂😂
LOL
the fact that we could have gotten 10 Seasons and they finished in 7,1/2 will never stop making me go crazy every time i think About it
The fact they pulled a Kathleen Kennedy and completely disregarded everything Martin handed them is what pisses me off. Finish the fucking job you were given, and do it well.
Thankfully, they’ll likely never work on a project like this again. Can you imagine these idiots in control of a Star Wars trilogy?
GRRM said they could have had easily 13 seasons! Honestly not just because it would be a lot longer, but the characters would get more development and the details would get polished, instead they showed 0 respect to GRRM and hurried through the show for what is incomprehensible! Fuck D&D!
@Patrick Cossack agreed, although it's still shit. Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams can go fuck themselves for that disaster of a trilogy.
@@thor2437 istg ,the same ending ,with 6 more seasons of character development and foreshadowing ,could actually make sense. Because then they would have so much time to JUSTIFY the ending. The main reason the ending suckdd was ,it was so rushed and badly done, but with 6 more seasons of plot ,it could be done much better. WE COULD EVEN HAVE A SEASON DEDICATED TO FIGHTING WIGHT WALKERS
More like 7 seasons. There were barely any episodes in the last 2.
"WhY dO yOu ThInK i CaMe AlL tHiS wAy?" Worst line in GOT
"I know a killer when I see one"
@@krillin3350 yeah that line literally made me despise Arya. I already disliked her because of her line, "That's alright, I don't need many allies, " then annoyed that she killed the night king (should have been Jon), but then after Dany torching an entire city killing women and children, her telling Jon "I know a killer when I see one." Like shut the fuck up, Arya. I really wish Arya would have gotten killed before the long night battle, haha
@@krillin3350 yeah that one is just stupid
You want a good girl but you need the bad pusseh 🤣🤣
Jaime kills the Mad King to stop him from slaughtering innocents. Also Jaime, "I never cared about the innocents."
The Golden Company gets DECIMATED in a 3 minute fight scene... That was the biggest waste of 2 season i've ever seen on ANY SHOW EVER...
Fuck the golden company. Night king and long night.... All done and dead in one dumb episode
It wasn’t even three minutes of fighting with the golden company. It was about 14 seconds of them running though.
Because Dany and Drogon became super powerful in one episode.
The Golden Company are clearly the writers' self-inserts: They don't do their jobs and run off.
2000 horses and we see one
Seasons 8 has to be the worst the ending in TV history. Wow, how can you blow a 10 mile lead?
Disney paid them. You don't think it's too coincidence that D&D were offered the gig with Star Wars just before they were to start planning season 8? I believe Disney paid them to destroy season 8, because GOT was the one mega franchise that they did not own, and the next best thing they could do was to destroy it.
spirittammyk season eight is anal cancer, but that has to be the dumbest fucking take I have ever heard. Disney already makes tons of more money than HBO, why would they pay off the writers to ruin a show that has little revenue in comparison to all the other big selling franchises that Disney has?
@@gudboah4688 It's not about the money, it's about power. They want it all!
Season 7 was trash too
@@spirittammyk why would Disney give a single shit about Game of Thrones, an adult high fantasy tv show?
I’ll NEVER forgive D&D for ruining Dany’s and Jaime’s arcs, and for making Bran the feckin Broken (who said he couldn’t be Lord of Winterfell because he was the Three Eyed Raven) the Ruler of the Six Kingdoms, after the *prisoner* Tyrion told all the leaders to fix the f*** up!!
And this was all after the Night King got turned into a slushy so easily by Arya...this enemy that had been built up since the very first episode of season one as being powerful and evil on a par with Sauron, gets tricked by a hand switch. 🙄
Then Cersei gets to die in Jaime’s arms? The same Jaime she sent Bronn to kill? @£4$7@4&+£63&%4#& F*CKING HELL!!!
WT actual F had D&D been smoking in the two years between seasons 7 and 8?? 😳
You said: "WT actual F had D&D been smoking in the two years between seasons 7 and 8?? 😳"
Before the very first season on TV, D&D had probably already planned it to last 8 seasons. I even heard they originally wanted it to be 7 seasons (70 episodes) before making it 73 episodes (60 + 7 + 6 episodes). They just didn't tell GRRM so that he would sign and so that THEIR name would be labelled on the success of GoT TV Show. They were just so short sighted that they couldn't foresee that their version would never in a million years stick the landing.
Heck even the cast and producers looked at season 8 script and were disappointed. Everyone knew, except them, that this wouldn't wrap up GoT in a nice way and would end up as a disaster.
I never watched s8 and I just watch his recap
Will you forgive george rr martin for his ideas oh wait thats kind of weird right? Cuz it is his story who are you to enforce your ideas on someone elses creation? Tempting possible plagarism? Because you do realize that the endings of the major characters are heavily based on martin's ideas right? You wouldnt possibly believe that D and D would just make up their own shit and deviate from the specific ending position of the characters GRRM had in mind, right? your entitlement and innocence derrived of your stupidity is indeed grand, intoxicating and truly sickening.
Actually they were never been able to write anything on their own. Everyone who read the books knows that. Since when they haven't had more source material (season 5) everything went shit
Enemies won.... And all of them are on the throne.....or Rolling around
I just feel so bad for the actors that worked so hard bringing these characters to life and then getting their hard work flushed down the toilet by lazy show runners that just wanted to be done with the show so they can move on to another project. This show made them well known. I’m never going to watch another one of their shows again because it will end in disappointment again.
I would have been ok with seasons taking longer to film, so that the actors could work on other projects in between. I understand wanting to do other stuff. They could have found a way to do that. What a waste
These poor millionaires.. I pray for them at night
D&D literally have no excuses either.
HBO Gave them the budget and gave them all the time but they still screwed it up
sigh another Dexter
Dexter wasn’t nearly as bad, at least it explained why he did what he did
Where do you come up with this crap? HBO cut the budget hugely - hence fewer episodes. Sheesh.
Dave McDougall www.google.com/amp/s/www.businessinsider.com/game-of-thrones-season-8-90-million-budget-6-episodes-2019-1%3famp
Absolute dumbass
Dave McDougall “Cut the budget”
Final season is now the biggest and most expensive fucking season
Are you stupid? F A C T S
Read them
Just because Disney offered them a own star wars trilogy. Which ended up to be canceled anyway. So in the end they blow it for nothing
They wanted to move on but they only damaged their reputations as writers. I wouldn't hire them to clean my bathroom after season 8. They wouldn't finish the job.
Worst career decision ever. The whole world watched you mail it in at work and they're not happy.
I would actually specifically hire them to clean my bathroom. But not until i have smeared enough shit all over it to make them suffer when cleaning it up.
I really hate those pricks.
They wanted to move on because they got a star wars gig. After GOT crashed they were fired from star wars too.
@@lastword8783 then they signed a $200 mil agreement with netflix. They directed a comedy special and now is directing another novel adaptation
@@Zack-fu4lo yep and the novel series theyre adapting is really good. I read the first novel and its promising and luckily for them the series is done so they have their material. It sucks that these dicks didnt allow HBO to continue Game of Thrones without them. They had to take the ship down with them on their way out. Greedy bastards.
Never thought a show that beautiful could be ruined that quick
Lost also had a bad and weird ending that didn't make a lot of sense. Though they had a good reason (writer's strike). True Blood also got crappy toward the end. Most shows aren't meant to last forever, but they should have solid endings. GoT was the best example of the worst ending.
Ending is everything.
Attack on Titan is also ruined for me cuz of the ending. That show was such a masterpiece.
Same thing happened to Dexter. The new ending was also underwhelming.
@@KennyOmegasCavity Really? I LOVE the ending of Attack on Titan. Also, it isn't over yet? There are more episodes coming.
@@e.g.4483 This isn’t true. LOST’s ending is beloved by most Lost fans. It has over 9 on IMDb. The people who said they hated it were casual viewers who didn’t understand it and thought the ending meant they were dead the whole time.
Also, the writer’s strike had no effect on the ending. It happened during season 4, not 6.
@@DrunkAtheist true. As a diehard lost fan, I liked the ending
That ending of season 7: snow falling on Kings landing and on Jamies glove 👍 next season: summer in kings landing ? Also jamie and euron= the fight nobody asked for .
And nobody wanted lol. Jaime should have killed Cersei... but hey. Why not ruin a show just because you can
season 8 makes more sense in an alternate universe, where same names like "King's Landing" can be used but look different than the prime GOT universe
Yeah I would’ve accepted a Jon Greyworm fight over that for sure
The truth hurts. GOT went down as a joke and final season literally ruined the series. Such a shitty ending.
It really is a total failure. It's hard to even rewatch the good starting seasons because you know all the story arcs go to shit. The people who died in the early seasons are the best characters because they got to leave with style. I would even consider Tywin dying on the toilet leaving in style.
The part that broke me was when Dany went full Mad Queen n torched the town. I couldn't believe my eyes.
The shitty ending also makes it hard to have any interest in the planned prequel GOT series.

@@amandawilliams9072 Well, Jon was on a collision course with Ramsey in both the books as well as the show- so that is gonna happen no matter what. Upon Ramsey's death, Winterfell is returned once more as the home of the Stark family. Once the Starks have returned to Winterfell, Arya would then know that it would be safe for her to at least return to Winterfell because she has been in hiding for at least a decade at that point.
I suspect that in the books that Jon may in fact be the one to deliver the final blow to the Night king- who is only distracted enough for jon to strike the NK with Longclaw because NK is killing / turning Arya to make his frozen bride. Remember, Jon is technically undead, after all.
If they left the writing of the show up to George it wouldn't be done for the next 15 years.
@@samuelh.2118 i’d prefer to wait another 15 years than endure the garbage we got honestly
I definitely stand with Seth. Game of Thrones season 8 was a dumpster fire.

To he honest, season seven was just as bad.
Breaking Bad continues to reign supreme. Sorry GoT you blew it.
It's so true coming from a fan who "loved" both shows to death but now can only take one seriously forever.. season 8 killed the entire legacy
@@Ormagoden94 there is quite s few gay characters in GOT but not so much in breaking bad. So I guess you're trying to say game of thrones is more gayer???
Sorry but the winner, and STILL champion is The Wire.
the brba circlejerk is amazing, there are way better shows, the wire is stille the best by far
The sopranos and the wire > breaking bad. (although breaking bad was brilliant)
Season 4 was the last great season. From 5 on, the quality of the writing became progressively worse. It was no longer about making narrative sense. It was about creating visual and technical spectacle. The final season is nothing but this.
I thoroughly enjoyed every season except the last one. Season 5 had the battle of hardholme, season 6 had the excellent battle of the bastards, season 7 had some dodgy writing but it still managed to build up masses of suspense around the night king. I think the show was still well above average until season 8 completely flopped.
@@RealUlrichLelandyou just proved the point then my pal, after season 4 it was all about big battles (wiche have imensse plot holes) and badass moments, and aparently it was all that people cared about back then.
Season 8 was so bad that I sometimes cried even while re-reading the books...It was insult to those book characters.
I would have liked to ask Seth "How much weed would Dany have had to smoke to have forgotten about the Iron Fleet?"
All of it.
Like literally..she woulda had to been blind folded to miss a thousand ships
A horny lady forgets everything. Specially jon snow refused her a sex climax before she went to kings landing. Sad. All jon needed to fuck her aunt like its her last day. Like ARYA killed fucking night king cause gendry give her a tight fuck she wanted.
Dany should have been on bath salts for forgotting about the Iron Fleet.
But she would never forgot Sausage Seth Rogen.
More than Mike Tyson smokes.
Remember that long build up to winter? Remember Old Nan's story to Bran about snow 100 feet deep.
So winter lasted about maybe a week?
@Tim Slomka Not to put too fine of a point on it but I think that maybe when the Night King was defeated, winter ended.
The half hour winter, fuck i hate dumb and dumber
BreakTheWheel Now sure, but they could’ve had scenes before the night king’s death that showed what winter was like
Remember about giant ice spiders and other monsters in the dark winter? Yeah, D&D didnt either.
@@Grivehn They kinda forgot about the long night
You got it all wrong.. It was so awesome to see Jamie go back to Kings' Landing so that he could stumble upon the magic sex pirate guy

@@ashleyyr0se 😂
Sigmeinn That's what I did, never seen S7 and S8 lol
Same!
read the book
That's exactly my thought. I could recommend BrB literally to anyone but GoT makes me hesitant.
Seth wasn’t wrong!
Yeah, kinda said what everyone’s been thinking lol, loved everyone asking him questions about the show
Facts
They took one of the greatest stories written and destroyed it so badly that everyone involved is basically in hiding. How do you show your face in public when you destroy a once in a generation series. This would be like if Harry Potter kills Voldemort then turns evil himself. Kills all his close friends. Then brakes the elder wand in half and stabs himself with it. They literally wrote the worst ending imaginable. They’d been better having the night king win and everyone dies.
You know, I'm puzzled that people get so worked up about this. Have they read the books ? Have they watched the show ? This is GoT, guys, not Dora the Explorer, and certainly not kiddie stuff such as Harry Potter… Dany's downfall was announced and predicted as early as book and season # 2. She kept saying she'd take what's hers with fire and blood, she crucified some people, burned others alive, fed a few to her dragons, a couple of heads rolled off at her orders… There was something enticing and fascinating about her ride to the top, so most of us cheered for her (myself included), but she WAS the Mad Queen almost from the beginning. You have every right to dislike it, but that was pretty easy to foresee. This said - there ARE some storylines which I feel were left half-cooked (no pun intended), but I'm not going to pretend that the writers ruined it just because it's not to my liking...
Cicilo1983 I was fine with Dany’s downfall. I think it was the only part of the ending that made sense up until the part the Jon snow kills her. She was the mad queen and Robert Baratheon saying they all need to die was correct all along. My issues are with basically everything else.
We learn Jon snow is royalty and he betrays his queen and murders her. Night king battle was anti climatic. Cersi and Jamie Lannister ending was horrendous. In no way does Cersie deserve to die such an easy death. I could go on but with the amount of time I’ve invested in reading the books and watching the show to me it was a betrayal for such an amazing story.
@@khure711 Fair enough. As for Cersei, I agree that she would have deserved a more gruesome death, but I like the symbolism of the Red Keep (literally) falling on her head, and crushing her to death. Power is all that she desired right until the very end, and it all caves in on her. The only part of the finale that I felt was totally illogical was that Jon gets sent back to the wall - the wildlings aren't an issue anymore, neither are the White Walkers...it doesn't even make sense that the Wall is still an option for anyone ! ;)
@Cicilo I call bs on the mad Dany nonsense. Go look at the situations where she crucified or killed people and then ask if those people were the same as the innocent and random people in the streets of King's Landing-the answer is a huge no. The people she crucified were slave masters and they were crucified in equal number to the number of slave children Daenerys had seen that slave masters running Meereen had crucified. How many children did random people on the streets of King's Landing crucify? The answer is zero. So that is how many of them Daenerys would be likely to crucify. One of the few ways to pretend the nonsense in season 8 episode 5 makes sense is to ignore rather than look at Daenerys's history.
Remember how people who defend the mad Dany nonsense often say she needed to listen to her advisors otherwise she'd go bad? Where did the idea come from that ended up with a guy getting fed to a dragon? Guess what, it was one of her advisors-Daario to be specific.
Lets see what some of those advisors also tried telling Daenerys. Tyrion told her not to risk herself in an attempt to save Jon while Jon was on a mission getting a sample undead to show Cersei that Tyrion himself came up with. Jorah was frequently a good guy but his advice wasn't always the most moral choice either. He tried to discourage Daenerys from trying to save women when Dothraki were raping them, he discouraged her from giving water to a tortured slave hung in the sun to die, and he also pointed out that freeing all the slaves she could would slow her down from getting to Westeros (thus discouraging her from doing that). Let's not forget another of Daario's gem ideas-he encouraged Daenerys to just kill all the nobles in Meereen so she could grab their wealth and power (she refused by pointing out she was not a "butcherer"). Had Daenerys listened to her advisors during these moments she would have made the less moral choice not the better one she did make in those situations. The idea that her advisors are the only thing holding her back or to a reasonable policy is bogus. So no, the claim she was bad and crazy in seasons 1-7 and people somehow just ignored it doesn't fly.
@khure Since you mentioned King Bobby B., its fair to point out one of his policies was that people would bend the knee to him or die. So unless people are arguing king Bobby B. was going to go mad and kill everyone in the street then chances are that Daenerys is not going to go mad either when using his policy. This was the policy when she burned Randyll Tarly after he refused to bend the knee which was after the army he was commander of refused to even give Lady Olenna a chance to bend the knee and live. And it was Randyll, not Daenerys, who turned down the idea of joining the Night's Watch. So he turned down not just 1 but 2 chances live after not giving 1 chance to his own prisoner (Lady Olenna).
@@Cicilo1983 I don't think people dislike Dany's downfall. People dislike it because it made literally NO sense. She won, she took over Kings Landing and Cersei had surrendered. The bells were ringing and then suddenly for NO REASON Cersei goes mad. It there was a good reason, I don't think people would have been very upset.
I feel relly sorry for the whole cast and crew who worked on seasons 7 and 8. Everyone did a great job with acting, special effects, music, cinematography etc. but they were working with such bad writing that it was impossible to save.
I think he’s entitled to his opinion, and seeing as they decided not to show up to speak about and defend their choices, and also put the Con under pressure with their absence, all the more reason to call them out.

Facts. In season 5, the wittiness of all the intelligent characters plummeted, especially Tyrion and Varys. And the entire Dorne plotline was an abomination. Season 5 did have 1 of the best episodes in the series with Hardhome, but was overall a decline in consistent quality. Then it was downhill from there. People act like it suddenly got bad at 8.

Seth Rogen is a man of the people, speaking truth to power. Benioff and Weiss are an embarrassment to themselves and everyone around them.
Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
He's a hollywood producer and he adapts anarchic, anti-corporate comics for multinational conglomerates in exchange for millions of dollars.
UA-cam provides no guarantee of irony, everyone knows that.
Regardless, the point is that Seth Rogen is a hack.
He was in the pay gap commercial
Regardless of the comments about being a cog in the system, Seth is basically a normal dude. Throwing some work at capitalist efforts for the Gap doesn't change the fact that he gets to have an opinion about Game of Thrones. To simplify the issue, anti-establishment feelings essentially have nothing to do with any part of this conversation.
You know, recommending people to watch GoT used to be my favorite thing to do. Now I'm even ashamed to mention its name when somebody asks me what tv show did I enjoy the most

2022 almost 2023 and I'm still pissed. Especially since the first thing that comes to mind when someone says G.o.T is "season 8 doesn't exist". The FIRST thought. Makes ya wonder how many other people have had it absolute tarnished for them because of D&D
@@nicoleolinger7633 2 weeks later! I'm still pissed!
That final season made me feel like I wasted my life watching the show and wish I never wasted my time on a single episode.

my old teacher who was a game of thrones addict missed school for two days because of how crushed he was after the final episode
The first 4 seasons are DEFINITELY worth the watch. Having gone through the whole thing, I would absolutely recommend people to watch the first 4 seasons and then the Hardhome episode by itself, without any context
Just realizing the Hardhome episode would be a better ending than the ending we got. Leaving things open as fuck but still, better getting nothing else than getting what we got. It would be like a hopeless pessimistic ending (of course a lot of hooks that were happening by that time in the series would need to not be happening and would need to be finished before that moment. It would be rushed AS FUCK but still better than season 8 and I’m not being hyperbolic or anything right now)
You learned never to do that again. So it wasn't a total waste.

* cersei having all the reason to be the mad queen *
DnD: Dany is the mad queen
I thought of all the shows and dramas that will subvert expectations this will be the one to do it. Literally every character was sure she'd become the mad queen and then she did. Don't make her the queen of Westeros but she could've been queen of something none the less or even died after becoming queen. She worked so hard. Or just explode her ass in a meaningless death like Margaery, would've made more sense
Come on now, GOT easy the definition of a red herring. Nothing is ever as it seems. With Daenerys, the clues were there. While I do believe that the ending was completely rushed, her endgame was always set in stone.
Expecting Cersei to go all mad Queen should've happened the moment she lost Tommen and gained power. Let's be honest, Cersei's humanity was directly tied to her children. Before she even knew of Daenerys coming to Westeros, she should've started acting a fool, yet, she never did. This is why I never saw her losing it completely.
@@janellejulianajoy
Cersei's side:
* cersei who don't want to give up the throne because she is selfish and always lust for power *
* Cersei who kills anyone that oppose her *
ex. The huge explosion on kings landing that kills countless people
* Cersei who have all the characteristic to be in lust of power and has the tendency to be mad because she is willing to do anything for the throne *
Ex. She didn't want to give up the throne even Jaime was convincing her that they will lose to dany and will only bring countless innocent death.
Meanwhile on Dany's side:
* Dany who stayed on the other side because she wants to free those slave before she take Kings landing and do the same to the people in it *
Ex. She always had the vision for better tomorrow. She wants to free the slaves and even oppose the iron bank that supports the slavement system.
* Dany who set aside her plan to take Kings landing to fight the bigger threat, the night king *
-Mind you cersei don't want to help but Jaime insist.
I'm not asking you to agree with me, I'm just proving my point which has something to do with the plot based on the whole season itself. Cersei killed by Jaime because cersei is starting to get mad is more appropriate than Dany who don't have any reason to get mad at all. Not a single fuckin reason we're shown in the whole season.
Anyways, whatever happens, GOT still has shitty ending, many plotholes and senseless storyline due to DnD being a real piece of shit.

Even though I respect him for expressing what all the fans were feeling. But it was also very disrespectful to the panel and the cast of Preacher. He basically overshadowed the panel of his own show and he didn't even care. I'm not a fan of Preacher but still, if it was the Agents of Shield panel being overshadowed by GoT getting more attention that it doesn't deserve, I would be downright pissed.

So many prophecies set up that never paid off. I hated Cersei, she was a phenomenal villain and they turned her in to a weeping victim.

Eh. It would have been an hour straight of fans asking them why it was shitty. That's not really helpful or productive to anyone.

Yeah, but the actors don't have a say in it. They will tell the tale of the characters and their perspectives on what their characters were thinking when they did things, but they didn't cut the show from 10 to 8 seasons and they didn't decide that Bran would become king for example.
@@michaedove3562 Well this is the problem, D&D didn't show up, so you're exactly right. But people deserved their pound of flesh and now they don't get it so of course they're super salty about it.
The show writers couldn’t take the heat.
GoT was one of the best and most talked about TV shows in history and the last season ruined it. For anyone who asks I recommend that they watch the show - but not the last season, or at least not the last four episodes. I think the first two episodes of the last season were good. Not great but good. They would have been good foreshadowing if the rest had been done right. But instead the last four episodes are complete nonsense. So for anyone watching the show or who want to watch it by all means do so but just understand: you need to stop after watching S8E2. It will be hard to watch all the way up to that point and not watch the rest - BUT DONT DO IT!! Just stop right there and use your imagination to make up the rest because whatever you come up with will be better than what D&D did. Trust me!
For me, "the win of living on the dead" was the official ending of the show...!
I refused to watch the final season when it came out, only the Battle with the Others and White Walkers. My mother and brother tried to convince me but my mind was made up that the show was too far gone. Afterward, my Mummy told me I did the right thing it was that bad. My brother tries to persuade me every now and then to watch the final episode for lols and to see the full ending, but I always refuse point blank because I know it will ruin any fondness that I still have for the show.

LOVE IT! And Seth Rogan wasn’t wrong at all in addressing the many, many issues with season 8 and the show’s finale, at least in my admittedly very fallible opinion.
Speaking as a fan, I followed that show and loved/loved to hate those characters for YEARS. And it legit hurt my weird, socially awkward heart to see them treated so poorly in the final season. The characters and the fans deserved FAR better than what was given. It felt like D&D were just bored/done with the world of Westeros and if that’s truly how they felt, they should’ve passed the torch and let someone NOT burnt out handle the final season. Just my two cents.
100% just having Cersei, the big bad of the entire show go out with some falling rocks was terrible, so badly done
@@heavyspoilers Agreed. Cersei and the actress who spent so many years portraying her deserved a much better ending than what she was given. And I was so invested in Jaime's character arc - to see it suddenly given such a poorly thought out, lackluster, careless conclusion was saddening and insulting.
As a writer myself (admittedly, my writing doesn't pay my bills just yet - more like pays an electric bill every now and then and buys me a pizza or three - so I'm not in D&D's league), I'm absolutely disgusted by the lack of care they showed. Even my broke, starving artist with a shitty day job ass wouldn't give my characters such short shrift, because I actually have respect and love for my characters.
I just hope that Seth Rogan's current and future work are/will be perfect. I get his criticisms of fellow showrunners/writers/artists--I just hope it doesn't come back to bite him when its his projects going under scrutiny. Today's fans can be harsh in their critique.

so hilarious that netflix was so dumb buying their exclusive rights. jeez
Season 8 made me regret I watched the whole show
Me too
The problem was they contradicted themselves. First Jaimie leaves Cersei to go fight for the living, then Cersei tries to kill him, he sleeps with Brienne, and leaves to be with Cersei? He had realized how toxic the relationship was only to go back? I really thought that Dany was going to be the Targaryen that proved that Targaryens are not defined as either crazy or not crazy, that there was a middle ground. And it didn’t have to end, HBO wanted 10 seasons with 10 episodes each to stay true to character development. The actors didn’t want it to end, only the writers!
Season 8 was so bad that it made Seasons 5, 6, and 7 look good.
Literally forgot Bran existed all the time he wasn't on screen
Rule #1 in acting: never play boredom. whatever you do it's the most excitng, difficult, crazy, sad hatever moment of your life. If youre not interested it's not interesting. How the director(s) let Bran be played in a monotone, dead- eyed, disconnected way..in EVERY scene no matter the situation was BANANAS! I don't care if the three eyed raven no longer felt like Bran Stark (its not as if Bran was very interesting to begin with). The choice to void all emotion and movement from the character wasn't an effective way to show the loss of Bran to the all-knowing TER. The worst of it is that the best and most revelatory moments are given to BS/TER with all the emotion of Siri. Jon is Aegon, the dead are coming, I've seen the night king, etc....Poor John Bradley...acting his as* off to compensate for the catatonic TER!
This is the Comic Con panel that I've missed. No PC clap along. It's sad, only Seth Rogan had the spine to address the elephant in a room. Season 8 was a massive disappointment because the actors busted their butts off but the script/material they had to work with was garbage.
What makes it worse is the writers had the balls to submit the script for the season finale for an emmy.

Smart. I just finished the show last night. I'm late to the game. But I had this lurking, underlying feeling that I shouldn't watch the final episode. I just knew it wasn't gonna be good. I was gritting my teeth the whole way through.
Do you yourself a favor and watch it for the memes. I had a great time making fun of season 8 even though im super disappointed in the show ending this way.
I don't think most people have a problem with the actual narrative decisions they made. A lot of the things that went down in season 8 could have worked if the quality of the writing had been a lot better. But unfortunately, it's painfully clear that D&D had completely checked out and just wanted to bring the series to a premature end as quickly as possible. It's like if you are reading your kids a bedtime story and can't be arsed finishing it so go "bla bla bla and they all lived happily ever after, the end!"
This. They stopped caring and they rushed it, they disrespected their audience and they got the backlash they deserved.
Let's hope other showrunners take this as the cautionary tale it is.
@@austenhead5303 Apparently, they basically admitted at a Q&A that they didn't have a clue what they were doing.
@@SmartPrice84 I heard. I don't buy it. How come their wide-eyed beginner ignorance was nowhere in sight for the first four seasons? They got lazy and arrogant and they thought they could just phone in the finale and move on to bigger and better things. HBO was willing to pay for more seasons, and if they had creative constipation they could have fessed up and brought in some reinforcements. But noooo, they thought they could just half-ass it and the loyal GoT fanbase would just swallow whatever it was served.
Sorry, I'm still a little bitter.
@@austenhead5303 No need to apologise mate. You are preaching to the choir. I'm still pissed off about it as well. The early seasons were better because they are the closer adaptations of the source material. They could adapt George's books decently but when it comes to creating something on their own, they are a couple of hacks. The sad part is that every other aspect of the production was so good. The music, the sets, the costume design and even the actors did the best they could with what they had to work with. But without decent writing it all falls flat. Like a beautiful building that collapsed because the foundations are shite. It's painfully clear they were chasing that sweet sweet Disney money, but didn't have the integrity to pass the torch on to someone that actually would have done it justice.
It was shite mate, hate how showrunners have all that power, surely the cast should have said wtf are you doing? This is shit! Ep.3s military tactics would only fool a child, absolute bollocks! Mind you having said that Mark Hamill said loads about what that fat faced cunt Ruin Johnson did to Luke and worse, Kathleen Kennedy was employed bu George Lucas and knew all Star Wars lore and was happy af to let that bubble faced little cunt kill Luke? Like wtf? It’s like she worked for George and hated him and got her revenge or something!
Seth just keepin it real speakin facts😂😂💯
Yeah 100%
Went from "Game of Thrones" to "Squabble of Stools"
I can’t believe it’s about to be 3 years since the end of the series. I can fairly remember the insane level of hype surrounding Game of Thrones, and it’s unfortunate that it’s simply going to be forgotten by pop culture. Talking about Game of Thrones is hard because in only one season, the creators destroyed the legacy of Game of Thrones forever and no one cares for it anymore. Imagine that in Endgame, Captain Marvel saves the heroes, gets the gauntlet and snaps her fingers to save the day. People would lose their minds and the MCU would have suffered because of it. That’s what happened to Game of Thrones, The series ended so bad with so many rush storylines and lazy executions, it ruined the shows integrity forever. These guys don’t deserve to be working anywhere else if their mindset is all about half-assing through the end.
Nope, GoT won't be forgotten. There's a ton of UA-camr who are reacting to right now. You're of the hivemind that didn't like what the writers wrote.
@@feathersx5427 lmao i know i’m right to think that because the series is on a decline like no other, and it’s all thanks to that finale. The creators really thought they could conclude major storylines like the long night, and Daenerys descent to insanity, all in just 6 episodes. Open your eyes, Game of Thrones rain is over and it’s heartbreaking to say the least. call me a hivemind all you want, because so many people like me share the same feelings.
@@Tripod9648 "Open your eyes, Game of Thrones rain is over and it’s heartbreaking to say the least".
It's been over 2 years since the finale and your still talking about it.
@@feathersx5427 thank you for quoting me because it’s true. I only came here to talk about the ending, you came here to argue
@@Tripod9648 I get it. I mean the Sand Snakes were absolute garbage, and the writing took a bit of a dive at points.
But writing an end to a story that a lot of people are invested in, will always upset someone. You are that someone.
Watch game of thrones season 1 to 4 then stop and go read the books.
matthew white BUT once you have seen season 8 there is no way you will be able to watch it anymore . All forgiven but l cant understand last episode what were they thinking ?”lets give this to the idiots who watch this ? Anyway enough money has been made already??” I hate them for what they did
Then read Fire and Blood
The ending was George’s ending so yeh - don’t think he’s ever gonna finish those books considering how much people hated the ending - or he may take another 20 years to rewrite the ending
@@ManuB3581 The TV show went off the rails once the show runners didn't have George's words to work with. It's a very complicated story that they short changed because they were ready to move on. Both George and HBO wanted additional seasons.
Wouldn't recommend reading the books until at least Winds of Winter comes out considering how Feast and Dance are technically two halves of the same book and end at around the time of mid-season 5 if I remember right. Fantastic series, just wouldn't want people to get hooked and then have it never finished. Just my two cents. And for the ending, I think GRRM's was the original S8 script ending (Leaked in 2017 and they rewrote the entire thing), not the one we saw on screen.
GoT S8 wiped out any chance for me to invest my heart and time on a show ever again. I cannot believe I waited 2 years for that garbage season 8. Everything was great except the horrendous writing.
Seriously right there with you. I found myself wondering the other day if they actually killed my geekiness...
The expanse and mr robot are shows worth investing in
If you haven't seen them yet, Breaking Bad and Cowboy Bebop have two of the most solid endings I've ever seen on TV.
Same. It was the 1st show I ever invested in so much and the last one, lesson learnt.
Go watch the last kingdom on netflix, you will thank me later...
I'm really happy people are speaking out about the 8th season.
lol. Where have you been? They have been speaking out about it ever since the first day s8 aired.
After watching season 8 I realize that Knight king was actually saving us from D&D or Season 8 or Danny. We were wrong all the time Knight King was the Real Hero 😂
"hey i mean: im HERE!" hahahahaha
Games Of Thrones boxed set blu ray must be a sell out...Imagine how much money Dumb & Dumber have lost HBO.
They could of milked GOT for decades, now instead merchandise is in clearance bins.
HBO good luck with the prequels to a butchered series. No one even wants to watch a single episode anymore.
Yeah agreed, all the good will that’s there for the prequel is gone
I work at a smaller store selling loot, merch, etc. and I prepared a section especially for GoT for when the final season had aired. It slowly turned out to become one of the most ignored sections in the whole store.
@8 BALL they have nothing to do with the prequels or anything else related to a song of Ice and fire. D & D will never touch the property again.
@@joannasimply 😂😂
I've read that HBO had green lighted 10+ seasons of GoT's but B & W didn't want to do it, so I don't think the blame for lame falls on them.
I am still mad about the GOT finale. I read fan theories and "script leaks" that were a better story than what was actually put out. I would have been fine with the Mad Queen but actually commit to it, not just this weird "well, she's the mad queen." They really needed to keep the white walkers as the villains till the end. It honestly would have made things so much better.
