So they just mentioned it again in ep2. They will kill night king and all the whitewalkers will die as a result. Its the biggest cop out ever, not only does it completely ruin the threat of the dead, it will rob us of the epic battle they have built towards for 8 years.
You thought season 5 and on was bad? The script? Dany? Wait until you see the most anticlimactic end to a show of all time. Seriously fuck this.
>Nightking finds Bran at the weirwood

lol i wish
It makes sense, though. Throughout the entire show they've made it pretty clear that the odds of them winning in a head on battle/war are slim to none.
Well, dragonglass, fire and other things have appeared to even it out some.
To even it out at all, more-like. Without the dragon glass they are quite literally helpless.
>full 7 seasons of hyping up this looming threat
>according to sources it gets defeated in the next 2 episodes and isn't even the final confrontation of the series
>the night king is a one-dimensional villain with zero back story or motivation, other than wipe everyone out, in a series marketed as supposedly focused on a fleshed-out political arena and elaborate intrigue
really great show and totally not a rushed, directionless mess
Explain, why would undead still be coming with bran alive?
He has the Night King's mark and is possessed by darkness.
Hmm, yeah maybe so.
>jamie has to do it
>"so you finally come to finish the job"
>kill necromancer
>all the undead he’s summoned disappear
It’s a trope repeated in most fantasy series though
How else do are they gonna beat all those zombies. They’ll likely be outnumbered a ton by the end if they get blown out and he marches south. So then they all charge at him like Thanos in the finale.
>If I stab you with Valyrian steel will you die?
>It would be extremely painful.
Honestly that would suck, I can imagine the undead becoming weaker not insta-killed.
Essentially unable to travel further south, with remnants of wandering wights attacking whatever they come across. Unable to add more to their numbers.
It won't happen that way, they'll all just crumble.
>I believe the line, Mashter Shtark, is “it would be extremely painful”
>Littlefinger steps out from behind the Godwood wearing the Night King’s armour

>Wow, murdering a Targaryen king AND a Stark! I guess Jaime, you really were A Song of Ice and Fire this whole time.
>*Lyanna Mormont winks at the camera*
See you have option A where the characters can showcase their intelligence with a strategy to defeat the wights and stun the NK
Then you have option B that involves convoluted time traveling and magic weapons and chosen ones that were born chosen
The Night King will gently cradle your balls
hyping up the night king is all about creating interest for the prequel spinoff
He spends his time gently cradling your balls
They'll go with option C plot armored YASS QUEEN womyn power who don't need no man
Finish it /got/
>And who, am I? The shy lord said,
>That you should bow so low?
Has any hbo series not ended terriblly? I mean they have already had two filler episodes in the season and you're surprised they will have one maybe two action packed episodes and have the rest of the season probably doing a couple funerals probably a wedding and showing characters retiring to a happy life while leaving enough of open end that in a few years they can make a spin off - either as a prequel or sequel.
We're folks really expecting the series to end well? I'm assuming hbo is in huge debt (which will be recouped in the years to come but never the less is hard on cash flow) and really needs to wrap up the show.
This is honestly more entertaining that what I know they have in store
a prequel would make way more sense since it would actually have existing matterial to flesh out.
This is sort of the core problem with this entire series. The White Walkers and the Night King are supposed to represent death. And that's fitting for this series. For all the political machinations of everyone in Westeros, all of it means nothing in the face of Death itself. Which, narratively speaking, is the true power in Westeros the one who writes history are the ones who can wipe entire houses from history. Aegon made his name by killing innumerable amount of people in Westeros. The fucking Iron Throne that is emblematic of the series is made from the charred swords of the men who died. The final conflict of the series should have been 100% about the White Walkers and feuding houses deciding to fight for life for the first time in over 8000 years.
Instead it's going to be about fighting Mad Queen 2.0 (3.0?) and a gang of mercs who came from an entirely different country and have nothing to do with anything. And the threat that's been built up for 7 season will die off in 2 episodes and his memory put on the back burner for fucking Cersei. HOW DID THEY FUCK THIS UP!?!
>mobile.twitter.com
What did she mean by this
anglo women are fucking disgusting.
and on top of that we won't even get White Walkers riding Icespiders
>The Long Night lasted an entire generation
>The Night King's return will be over in a weekend
The show is written by two twats who feel the need to shoehorn their ideology into every scene
Sadly I believe Martin will kick the bucket before he can finish his next breakfast let alone the fucking book
God, how I hate these smug jews.
>My name is Sneed, and I sell feed,
>And that's the way she go.
The wire
Ender's Game and Independence Day spring to mind. LOTR as well. Who else did this?
LOTR is different since they were killing the Devil basically, but yeah it was kind of bullshit but to be fair JR Tolkien did start the trend. The first Avenger's did it too, and Battle LA. The vast majority of science fiction movies do it.
If he doesn't at least fly by and burn the Citadel, the writers would've missed a very easy callback
>In the Citadel, we lead different lives for different reasons. We are this world's memory, Samwell Tarly. Without us, men would be little better than dogs.
Yeah, just like in the phantom menace.
That’s a neat trick.
This would actually be pretty decent. It would be "bittersweet" too.
get back in your grave, Stan
George RR Martin is not relevant.
It’s their show and not his.
>There must always be a night king
Hahahaha THEME? What's that?! HAHAHAHA
LOL
Yes please
>9.5 rating
This is fine. The night king and his army are flat out the worst thing in game of thrones.
I am sure in the books they are an eliquent, mystical and purposeful faction, but in the TV show they are just fucking ZOMBIES. AKA FUCKING BORING. THEY ARE SHIT AND RUINED THE SHOW.
Getting rid of them quickly is good. Prove me wrong.
>Has any hbo series not ended terriblly?
i liked the first season of true detective's ending
Apparently the Night King is dumb as fuck because he's going to go after Bran and not just kill everyone first.
>night king pulls same trick a rob
>sends limited force to winterfel, main army decimates kings landing, entire population (which the number mentioned in show) bolsters numbers
>threat has increased significantly

yeah they did it in LOTR after like 20 giant battles and half the world being burnt down but sure sure ring into volcano was a cop out
well he did get btfo by a bunch of elf creatures
Jon Snow and Fatty Tangaryen have to slaughter the civilians of King’s Landing. In the end, Cersei blows up all of King’s Landing with wildfire.
>conflict resolved in a single battle
So fucking dumb. If dying meant your whole army/race would die with you, you would not be in the battle.
>I am sure in the books they are an eliquent, mystical and purposeful faction
no they're as dumb in the books as they are in the show
>>the night king is a one-dimensional villain with zero back story or motivation, other than wipe everyone out, in a series marketed as supposedly focused on a fleshed-out political arena and elaborate intrigue
That's what makes the White Walkers great though. They don't play our games. They can't be bought, threatened or manipulated. Though I do think the Lannister army could have been used in tandem with them to make a more interesting finale
>Has any hbo series not ended terriblly?
The Sopranos.
That will not happen.
Fatty’s mad dad will be vindicated, because he wanted to blow up King’s Landing to prevent the Night King to create a superarmy.
Jaime Lannister will realize he was wrong in killing the mad king.
Son of a fucking bitch this is going to be it isn't it
I feel like everyone has forgotten The Night King has an undead dragon. Seems like putting Bran in a wide open forest is the most retarded fucking thing they could ever do. But, no. I'm sure Theon the cockless will take down the dragon
god dammit Yea Forums, i just burst out laughing while my grandmother is on her death bed and everyone in the household is sad
>What makes the antagonist great in this show about political intrigue is how they have no motivation
need a link to e3 yo
Arya: "we arent letting you go out there alone!"
Theon: "ill be there!"
Everyone: "wheww! Thats a relief"
Eh, Season 5 was not nearly as great as the previous ones. It did wrap things up quite nicely, though.
In total warhammer you do this and it works.
wouldn't that mean bran could command them though and order them to stop?
Night King has speculative motivation if coupled with context of the history told in the book.
Six feet under
>not realizing getting rid of the zombie army is actually for the better.
It's called a song of ice and fire, zombie threat is the ice part, then there's dany with her babies. And the show is game of thrones, so a focus on King's landing for the end also works,
agreed, Six Feet Under's ending was amazing, and stayed true in tone to the rest of the series.
night king will catch a the valeryian steel sword with his bare hands. he'll also tank some dragonglass. that will be the only exciting part, they'll still kill him with dragons
Boom. And Bran doesnt seem to give a shit about people so if he had the power to stop them he might not.
Or he will kill Dany and take out one of her Dragons leaving Jon with Drogon
>That's what makes the White Walkers great though. They don't play our games. They can't be bought, threatened or manipulated.
that is literally the opposite of why they're so great, wtf, the book heavily implies that they're a culture of their own
The problem is that this is an ADAPTATION. And yes im using that word in capital letters since half this shit has nothing to do with the books even though they gave characters with the same names. But seeing as how this is an ADAPTATION then they need to explain this version of the Night King especially since he doesn't fucking exist in the books.
the night king does not exist in the book
the jews ruin everything
Only against the Vampire Cunts, I mean counts. If you kill Archaon the Everchosen his Chaos troops route and you can continue to fight the Chaos remenants after the campaign victory.
My man out there shitposting in these troubled times
The history of humans and the children of the forrest that the night king is tied into on the show does exist in the books.
You’re assuming the white walkers lose. For all we know they win the battle at winterfell and the heroes are forced to flee on the dragons. Then the night king might march on to kings landing. Cersei would lock herself in the red jeep while the city and her army would be getting destroyed, only for our heroes to show up with a plan to finally kill the night king.
>Knight King shows up
>Kills Bran
>Leaves
Unless the night king goes to kings landing first to kill Cersei and seize the throne. Then hell send his new army of the dead in kings landing to wipe out whoever left
>The night king and his army are flat out the worst thing in game of thrones.
>not KHALEESEE YASSS SLAY QUEEN a.k.a. the dumbest, talentless whore playing as an insufferable, one-dimensioned character around which the entire show revolves just to make muh wamen watch this drivel
Nice opinion there, friend.
>inb4 have sex incel
>nothing on tax policies
>evil for the sake of evil big bad guy
Grrm should be tarred and feathered
A nights king does exist in the books. There’s a legend of a lord commander of the nights watch who falls in love with a female white walker and goes beyond the wall with her. Sleeping with her and giving her his soul. He later takes over the nightfort, declares himself the nights king and controls the brothers of the nights watch through some type of magic.
I’m dying
The Night King and Night's King are 2 different characters
>Cersei would lock herself in the red jeep
Why wouldn't she just drive away, then?
Dany burned the gas from The Reach
That whore!
I mean, the big conflict has been the War of the Five Kings. The only people who were like "this war means nothing the dead will rise" have been the red woman and jon snow
>he's the last horcrux, the horcrux the night king never thought he made
Bravo Vince
This is neither confirmed or denied by anyone working on the show.
GRRM was asked and he said he was a "legendary figure that was unlikely to have survive this long"
Not a clear denial.
I dont think the timeline's match up though so they are probably different
There just isn't enough time left in the show to develop the White Walkers beyond generic WRPG monsters.
Honestly though, the Others are just an inherently bad premise and trying to have the fight against them be a satisfying climax to the saga is probably why Gurm's fat ass has been procrastinating for so long. It's fun and sounds cool to use fantasy elements for thematic resonance or symbolism, but when you have all the plot threads of an intricately detailed intercontinental political drama spanning multiple doorstop volumes converge into something so simple it's going to be lackluster and not fit in with the rest of the story at all.
A lot of writers try to do their own version of Tolkien's antagonistic force of pure concentrated evil that can't be reasoned with or feel any sympathy, but they leave out the spiritual and religious element that gives such a one dimensional faction weight in the first place. Sauron works as an antagonist because he is fighting for the sake of the LOTR equivalent of Satan, while the heroes are fighting for and aided by the LOTR equivalent of God and angels. There obviously isn't any sort of divine or demonic origin to the White Walkers that fits in with any sort of spiritual heirarchy in ASOIAF, so they have no significance within the story itself beyond meta.
I think if Gurm or D&D had a character or faction make some sort of Faustian pact to ally with the Others, they'd be able to explore and flesh them out more by allowing other characters to interact with them via a proxy while still keeping their mystique. It's too late for that now though so all that's left is video game FMVs of our quippy heroes fighting le ebin ice zombies.

>no head Night King in the books
Does this pretty much confirm that Stannis is going to become a super wight or something because he's a king and lead the army of the dead on Winterfell? It would explain why they kill him so unceremoniously in the show since they don't really need him with the Night King
jaimie goes : "gotta finish what I started"
>puts on sunglasses
>won't get fooled again plays
all the interviews of emilia clarke being a ditzy dumb bitch have made me realize she was an excellent casting choice for dany
It would be better if the army of the dead just up and marches past Winterfel to fuck up King's Landing. Jon and meme army will have to pull up all fortifications and pursue and Cersei will be in a panic.
>There just isn't enough time left in the show

I was hoping it would motivate GRRM to finish his series. I underestimated the laziness of a baby boomer with money.
You forgot Ghost covering his eyes with his paws.
zombies will def rise from the crypt. how the fuck are they not thinking of this?
This would be good, even though the previews from the next episode confirm it doesn't happen. After how quickly things moved in season 7, I though season 8 would open with the white walkers wrecking Winterfell, and everyone having to retreat to King's Landing. Cersei obviously wouldn't let them in, so episode 2 and 3 would be that conflict, and then once the "good guys" won, episode 5 would be anyone left alive vs. the white walkers. There'd be heavy losses, but some one would sit on the iron throne, while 90% of Westeros had been killed. A bittersweet ending.
Generation Kill
how the fuck are they in debt? Isn't this show printing money for them?
wouldnt they just be dust by now?
Ned & Lyanna were just bones when they were put there most likely
>that is literally the opposite of why they're so great, wtf, the book heavily implies that they're a culture of their own
Same
Not at $90 million a season. Television actors cost too much nowadays.
No they would be mummies because of it being cold in the north
The next few battles better be fucking spectacular to justify that pricetag
Winterfell is built ontop of hot springs
They make $300-$400 million a month on HBO subs though. The show takes around 3 months to come out for a 10-episode season which would mean they make $900mil-$1.2bil per season off subs.
I would rather another three episodes of dialogue, the first two this season are instant classics
Then the heat would mummifie them
There's also dozens of other dogshit shows they have to fund.
its probably this desu, because the night king touched bran, he'll flip a switch and bran will turn into a wight
Bong genes...
then why wouldn't they just cut those? Cutting the one that is making all the money makes no sense at all.
Attribution isn't that simple. There are a lot of reasons someone would subscribe to HBO, and it's not always for a particular show. They kind of have to throw shit at the wall to see what sticks.
The weirwood is going to eat him.
oops this was meant for
the VAST majority watch for GoT though. Most people couldn't name another current HBO show.
> (((reviewers)))
> (((critics)))
>the VAST majority watch for GoT though
Again, attribution isn't that simple. Do you have any statistical evidence for this claim. Because I bet the marketing department at HBO doesn't.
I wonder how well it will do in royalties... I bet some suit has grossly overestimated its royalties cashflows
they will just mimic this exactly and have someone become the new night king to keep the horde under control.
Niemieria will save Arya. Grndry will all be like you know her and Arya will hug dog then she will fight that other Stsrk kid riding on his zombie wolf
Cersei is the primary antagonist though.
The White Walkers are great because we don't have to waste more time on some retarded betrayals and backstabs where everyone forgets everything that has happened in the past few months.
you think the marketing department at HBO doesn't get any data on the number of people that watch their shows? You're pretending to be stupid, right?
>Per HBO’s tally, which stops counting episode views 30 days after the finale aired, Season 7 of “GoT” put up an average of 32.8 million viewers.
>While “Westworld” holds its own as HBO’s first runner-up series in terms of overall eyeball count, the Evan Rachel Wood and Jeffrey Wright-led drama’s comparable figure for its second season is 9.2 million, using HBO’s method for counting viewers.
sources:
thewrap.com
statista.com
tvseriesfinale.com
I literally just googled "HBO show viewership ratings" and found all this shit.
GoT gets over 3x as many viewers as the 2nd place show, and 3rd place is wayyyy lower than even Westworld is.
But the entire point of the show is that the fight over the iron throne is petty because the white walkers are coming.
thus of oulde (pre-season 4)
>the watch burns its dead because anyone who dies on or beyond the wall rises again and becomes a part of the coming and inevitable ragnarok
thus now
>pic related
You need to start asking a couple of questions. How much of their revenue comes from cable subscriptions, and what comes from HBO Now. Chances are, cable subscribers are bundled in and aren't likely to cancel. Then you have to find out how many Now subscribers were only watching GoT, and then take a guess at how many of them are going to cancel, based on how many people canceled in the off season. HBO existed long before this show, and it's going to exist long after.
But that isn't the argument. The argument is that HBO is losing people money, when if you look at the numbers, even if they spend $100mil a season they're still absolutely profiting off this show based on the number of people who purely watch it.
Not anymore
WAMMIN STRONK is the entire point now.
I remember the commentary for an episode last year one of the Daves bragged about how they had the first scene in history of all women leaders sitting and deciding battle plans.
I was like theres a reason scenes like that dont exist you pat yourself on the back for nothing kike.
So you're arguing that HBO should just keep this show going forever, even though D&D could barely shit out 8 seasons. Doesn't really make a difference whether season 8 was 6 or 10 episodes, either way they didn't want to spend more than $90 million.
>have a strategy meeting
>I HAZ DRAGONS
>nobody points out the night kings anti dragon spear chucking ability and that it would be a danger
Fuck sake.
We don’t see the NK in the previews. For all we know, he sends his army but flys south and just kills a bunch of people to resurrect them to start fucking shit up
Again, that wasn't the argument either. Money isn't the issue, its purely the writers and actors not wanting to do what they signed on to do and half-assing it to get it over with. This is their cash cow.
Go on forever? No, but they easily could've done a 10 episode season this season AT LEAST.
>its purely the writers and actors not wanting to do what they signed on to do and half-assing it to get it over with
yes. I've been drinking and I don't really know what the original point was.
>forever
Thats what will happen. D&D will stop but
Its a soap opera and Judaism clearly dictates that you never end them or wrap them up with a conclusion. ALWAYS cliffhanger to leave possiblity for reboots and spinoffs.
>GoT fanboys expecting a satisfying ending
At the 57:30 minute mark all the characters who are going to battle will be there and right before the finishing blow is delivered to the Night King, the screen will go to black, leaving you, the viewer to wonder whether they succeeded or failed. They also have a few other loose ends of plots that they'll leave ambiguous and up to the viewer to decide if they happen one way or another.
Reminder that this is all coming apart because GRRM never managed to out-pace the series cause he's a lazy fat fuck. They have no structure for the last two seasons cause there is nothing to draw from so they have to inject it with their own ideals (progressiveness) and style. I just hope they don't cuck Jon Snow.
look man i liked stannis too but he is dead and we all need to accept it and move on
I laughed a lot more than I should have
best possible scenario
>I think if Gurm or D&D had a character or faction make some sort of Faustian pact to ally with the Others, they'd be able to explore and flesh them out more by allowing other characters to interact with them via a proxy while still keeping their mystique.
That was literally Crastor. There's a whole air of mystery they set up behind Crastor's bastards and the white walkers that could be expanded upon, but it's looking more and more likely they're just chucking it out the window to get this all over with.
I want Ser Davos on the Iron throne
If Jon Snow doesn't cuck that defeats literally the entire message they've repeatedly blatantly and crudely crammed in our face.
They have no talent without GRRM. They're just a bunch of propagandists charged with an effect they are too incompetent to smoothly achieve.
By that logic, shouldn't Berric have died when Thoros got killed? Or is there different kinds of necromancy in GoT?
Why didn't they make any dragonglass armor?
>They will kill night king
Nope

Not really. In the book the orcs just rout and run for the hills rather than get swallowed up, the chasm opening up was a Jackson thing.
who's gonna kill the night king? i think it's gonna be some gurrl powa shit.
it doesn't need to be strong though, they shatter if they as much as touch it
even if they couldn't form it into the right shapes they could line their existing armor with small pieces of it
>There obviously isn't any sort of divine or demonic origin to the White Walkers that fits in with any sort of spiritual heirarchy in ASOIAF
I thought their link to the divine was along the lines of red woman's link to lord of light, and that their god is 'the other'.
Book Other's are basically winter sidhe. And they ride giant ice spiders who's poison freezes your blood. They where awesome, and the tv show ruined them by making the other's cursed humans.
so why is it so fucking dark? did someone forget to turn on the lights? half the time I can´t even identify the characters on screen before they speak
2/10 director
>they could line their existing armor with small pieces of it
Somebody is probably doing that.
An armor suit of it would just fall apart just from your body moving in it
who gives a shit about bran?
>they shatter if they as much as touch it
Then why isn't the glass just being broken into as small pieces as possible to just throw at them?
You're a dumbass if you think everything will go according to plan. Do you even know anything about GOT? Just wait.
Yep. It feels kind of anticlimatic so far. I think if they knew exactly what they're writing they would have pushed almost everything back by a season. Winterfall should have been attacked/destroyed half way through season 7 and the wall destroyed at the beginning of season 7. It would given some build up for the night kings defeat at the beginning of season 8 and a decent amount of time for the epilogue with cersei.
The Night King first appears in season 4, and he isn't in the source material at all. Lack of source material isn't the issue. Persons decided that things needed to be changed and added to make it entertaining for television, and that's exactly what they're going for.
You would need something to toss them with. Its probably lighter than a coin.
Like loading trebuchet up with small peices that would spread out over the battlefield would be a good idea something like that.
>DABID furiously scribbles this down
Fuck ice zombies
And they show trebuchets last episode they might be doing something like that
But why would they be bothering with sharpened dragon glass weapons at all?
>There must always be a night king
Not really. The orcs at mordors gates die but the ones in other mountains and tons from mordor survived, they just moved in small groups had no organization and were fairly easy for people to clean up without an intelligent leader.
There is also the matter of the foreign armies that then needed to forage and pillage their way back home.
Yeah, the real war was officially over, the King was crowned and the clearing up all the enemy became a relatively boring footnote that takes course over a long period of time.It's
But you're being very disingenuous by implying that all the bad guys drop dead when Sauron dies. Hell, even the ones that die right then don't die because Sauron did - they fall into the ground that opens up or get crushed by the fortress (which is destroyed by Saurons death but since he did make it mostly with magic that's fair).
There are also battles at Dol Goldur and Erebor, neither of which just stop when Sauron dies.
And that whole Shire thing that happens after the hobbits make the trip home, with Sauron long dead.
>oblivion is now considered an old game

I wounder why D&D were such in a rush to finish the show, aren’t they doing a black America show next or something? It’s almost a certainty that people don’t give a shit about the director but rather the show so their new show will have drastically lower viewership. You would think they rack in more money with GOT or even a ship off

Jon most likely, Night King is the nemesis from his ark. Probably Jorrah will help, because of the sword he got and it being connected throw sam and etc.
Which would be perfectly in line with th enarrative of woman bickering over perceived power and manly man actually getting shit done.
It's actually quite funny how normies and incels on Yea Forums think that this show is feminst.
Both power couples (Jon/dany and jamie/cersei) are mary sues of your typical right wing conservative couple.
Why would the NK come after Bran while engaging in the Battle anyway? He could zergrush Winterfell and get Bran afterwards. It's so stupid

that's because the white walkers are an obvious metaphor for climate change and the whole "game of thrones" represents all other geopolitical distractions that prevent us from coming together and dealing with it. this series was doomed from the beginning
She is a symbol for their house, basically an avatar for their identity, country is in ruins people need something to get behind, so this role is forced upon her since she is the heir they have.
If anything she is being abused by being in the position that she is in.

I dont think they can reanimate every single person who has ever lived. That seems even too clowny for clown world.
Podrick should have gotten a raise for this scene, pretending you have a hardon for this cronenberg-esque eldritch slag must have been hell
I miss her, boys
ms piggy
Why is she so fuckable, Yea Forums?
>Without the dragon glass they are quite literally helpless.
All they need is wild fire, dragons, and a flat area near high ground bottled in. They're just zombies
if you dont think the finale will leave it open to a new series/spin off you are incredibly stupid
Aren't they doing some prequel about the Doom, but instead of following the Targs or the Velaryons, we get to follow some random OC dragonlady?
Because you can't cormer the Dormer

>Night King crushes Winterfell killing most main cast
>Night King converts Bran
>Jon snow dany retreat to kings landing
>Cersi: fuck u doin ere boi
>Night King fucks Cersi and her army up
>Jon kills Night king
>Dead army still alive
>Bran takes control of the dead and marches them back beyond the wall saving all the 2-3 cast members left
>Jon on throne
>Final scene: New younglings coming to take the black at the wall with sam as Measter
It's not a cop out of it's an all destruct button but they can't beat him for a while! Then most of the nameless characters die fighting along with a few of the main characters, And when all hope seems to be lost, something unexpected happens which causes the heroes slay the villain with only seconds, if not less than a second, to spare.
That's not a cop out, right?
>Night King finally shows up in episode 3
>Steps out in front of his army and dead eyes Jon on the battlements
>"Give me the child." rings out coldly across the battlefield
>Jon's face is washed down with realization and slowly turns to look Sam in the eyes who looks down from his gaze and cries softly
>Throw baby sam over the wall to Night King
>Night King leaves
Crastor was the true hero all along
Well, yeah. That’s why you have to buy the book you retard. George is a bizness man
Sauron ruled his soldiers through a sort of telepathic connection. Like a queen ant or the like. Once that connection is severed, the orcs no longer have a will egging them on and their cowardly nature takes over. They don't die, they just revert back to what they are at heart, squabbling opportunists that live in remote mountain tribes, with no higher ambition than to become the alpha orc, which entails killing everyone opposed.
oh and like, Gilly throws herself to the dead out of grief. Everybody leaves Winterfell to buttrape cersei.
Bran for Night King
Rome ending was alright. Not as good as the rest of the series but still alright
my sides !!1
>hbo is in debt
What a weirdly untrue statement
better not
I'd imagine the NK isn't the universal link to all the wights
like perhaps there are some other leader wights way beyond the wall, watching, controlling, and hiding
like negato from naruto
Killing the omega in Edge of Tomorrow.
only 4 episodes left but still, what next? are they really making cersei the skyler of GoT? I fucking hope not. Qyburn is more a threat, not even joking
him and Samwell could really brawl it out
too bad Samwell is such a fucking manchild
crazy eyes make any woman more attractive by 1 or two points
Azor Theon confirmed
>ramsey a serial killer
>cersei a terrorist/osama
>joffrey the brat that gets people killed
>tywin the old fart that tries to control the new world in his old primitive barbaric ways
oh shet
>cool wine aunt
all it takes is one fresh enough corpse
>podrik
The little brother is the only one that would be fresh enough
Army of Darkness
Who are these?
are the cribs really where a bunch of corpses are? are they SERIOUSLY leaving most vulnerable people in that deathtrap?
The worst part is that this happened with the ironborn guy and was played for drama
The entire continent is a graveyard of corpes. Thousands of years of living and dying. There has to be some point where a corpse can no longer be brought back to life. Ned Stark was just bones that they sent to WF, not a corpse. Lyanna was likely the same. They probably burned everybody that died in the battle of the bastards.
i'm kind of hoping Margaery Tyrell eventually weds the Night King in the books
retard
The Night King can not die so long as Bran is alive. Bran will sacrifice himself to end the Night King.
He would have to download to somebody else first
>final battle of humanity vs the dead
>Bran is warged into the past, being protected by Jaime and Brienne
>white walker stabs Brienne with her own sword, she lays on the ground dying
>cut to young Jaime kneeling, with Aerys Targaryean saying "In the name of the Warrior, I charge you to be brave..."
>Jaime kills the WW, and after a brief moment of grief, draws the sword from Brienne, now aflame
>cut to Aerys: "Do you swear to defend the innocent and the helpless, in the name of the Seven?" "I swear it"
>audio of Jaime and Brienne's parting plays as Jaime looks around
>"They say the best swords have names. Any ideas?"
>Night King appears and stares at Bran, his ultimate target
>"Oathkeeper."
>Jaime steps in between them, laughing somberly
>"Do you know what they call me?"
>as Azor Ahai walks toward the Night King, all that can be heard is a cacophony of voices from past seasons cursing:
>"Kingslayer.. Kingslayer! KINGSLAYER!"
>Imagine being Podrick
Fuck you
They've got two fucking dragons that can kill wights by the hundreds of thousands in a single day's work
I wonder how they would fare against their icebro? Im guessing he would be incredibly weak to their fire but what about his ice breaf?
He makes a pact with Jon and then he and his armies depart. That's literally what happens.
Talking
fuck it for chris
holy shit. That is to based for dnd
They could've gone a completely different route with them. People speculated that men have violated some kind of ancient agreement with them and that put them on the move, and I like that idea far more than this shit about them being angels of death whose only motivation is to destroy everything. It would fit the the narrative of the first few books and would make the ordeal much more intriguing.
It sickens me that there will be none of that and it'll just be another generic epic good vs. evil fantasy fight.
leave Corrigan alone you CUNT
Jaime being AA would be kino. He got a lot of development throughout the show and his character isnt really a good person nor a bad person, makes him seem more human. Mary Sue characters like Jon Snow feel too fake and obvious and Dany gets literally handed everything to her. Her being AA would be a cop out. Gendry or Davos would also be good picks but seeing their screentime lately I really doubt it. Theon has a small chance though.
Skin Diamond on the left.
she's ugly and i wouldnt fuck her
He doesnt have icebreath, he melted the wall
Also if the objective #1 is to kill Bran, then why would he attack Winterfell, and not just focus all his mind puppets to swarm where Bran is?
Sorry bro, nothing will be more antclimactic than then end of Dexter.
The best ending on TV is still the Shield.
>9
Is he choking himself?
why do you fucking retards keep going on about azor ahai it's not even a point in the show
In the books it will be The Great Other. The reason for the name change into The Night King is that they never called them The Others in the show
>What is Mellisandre's whole plotline
The Great Other is a god, not some humanoid faggot walking the lands.

I am actually rooting for the White Walkers. I want them to engulf the whole world in an everlasting winter, with some scattered survivors trying to live through this.
with only a handful of episodes to go it's obvious, that the writers don't know how to end it properly - there's no time left for anything interesting to happen.
so I'd be happy with an open end - something vague akin to old sword and sorcery novels, or Fighting Fantasy books.
they obviously won't do that, in fear of angering their fans, so they will conclude the saga with the most dumb, "bittersweet", good vs. evil ending.
What even makes him a "king"? Do they have a monarchial structure? Shouldn't the term "alpha" be more apt, as he is the leader of the pack?
Sadly this
True Blood
The Leftovers
The Wire
Six Feet Under
The Sopranos had the absolute best ending they could come up with.
it's painfully obvious what happened in the end, if you paid close attention to the series.
KL is gonna be wildfire'd. She had a vision of a charred KL during winter is season 2 or 3.
I'd clap if this happens.
It will be fucking terrible. This show slowly degraded from the books. The new show will start out terrible and just keep getting worse.
it's already shit. westeros SHOUDL HAVE been conquered by the walkers like 2 seasons ago and the show should have focused on the survivors in the post-apocalyptic new long night. it's shit. always has been shit.
it's not the writers, it's the suits from above. weiss is a good writer, troy was masterfully put together. sure they're jews, but as the show got super popular they were simply converted into hired corporate guns
Why do you guys support castration while shaming people for not having sex?
I've never heard a white walker talk, so we will never hear another shitty contrived moral lesson.
the realest disappointment hits you when you remember the hype from season 1 after hearing the old nana's horror stories about the long night, and now 8 years later it's shit
Now this is kinography
So instead of having an actual ragnarok with mysterious undead they just made a villain that controls the dead and, once killed, there will be no more undead.
Brabo, Dabid. I want to fucking murder DnD.
KEK
It's truly pathetic. Best case scenario we get lots of battle before they do the insta nuke by killing Night King. Still completely destroys the whole point of the Whitewalkers. If this show had any balls and stayed true to the nature of the first four seasons, they would kill Night King early on, only to realize it didn't do jack shit and they still have to kill all the remaining whitewalkers. That would be the fuck you moment this show have thrived on in the past.
This.
band of brothers,rome
you gotta go thru winterfell first, either that or you trudge thru the swamps at moat cailin or he makes his zombies swim
>THATS MY PURSE
>I DONT KNOW YOU
You have to go through moat Cailin anyway, winterfell sits surrounded by plains. The causeway goes right through Moat Cailin's towers, surrounded by the swamps of the Neck.
BRANN AND THE NIGHT KING ARE THE SAME PERSON
SCREEN IT!
