Last 2 seasons of GoT still hurt to think about.
It's not the ending that hurts it's how it got there. The last 2 seasons probably should have been 3 full seasons instead of the barely 1.5 we got and had a lot more build up/Dany descent into madness/Bran having some relevance that would justify his elevation to ruler, etc.
The suddenness of everything, the exposition, everything was just poorly executed. Too much money spent on CG dragons, not enough money spent on episodes telling the story.
The books can remedy my pain but have already waited so long. :(
- prepend 4y agoI think the last two could have been 10 seasons and it would have been bad. The issue wasn’t cramming too much material, the issue is they didn’t have writers with ideas. They had been adapting GRRM and ran out of material to adapt and just went batty. I think the reason it is so compressed is because they could just charge through it quickly and make it work.
- greedo 4y agoD&D were also trying to wrap it up quickly so they could move on to making the Star Wars series (that they subsequently got canned from).
- randomsearch 4y agoSpoiler! Maybe edit
- jffry 4y agoIs there a need to conceal spoilers from a massively popular show that aired its final seasons 5 and 3 years ago, respectively?
- ilikecakeandpie 4y agoIt's been over for three years now, one of those years where everyone was inside for a long time, and was very hotly debated on social media. I think it meets the criteria for not needing a spoiler warning
- randomsearch 4y agoI'll never forget the day someone on the subway shouted "I can't believe character X dies!"
- rcpt 4y agoidk man that ending hurt pretty bad edit: also the complete destruction of Jamie's character out of the blue in one scene jfc
- jpgvm 4y agoYeah they did my boi Jamie pretty raw. :(
