What was the point of this character?

Plot device to bring everyone together

why does he look like Ryan Gosling?

He wasn't all that important. They only emphasized the mortal threat of the white walkers in S01E01.

To bring balance to the force.

reminder he doesn't exist in the books

So I'm guessing Arya was the prince that was promised?

I mean, you spend almost a decade building up this episode, the entire series around it, and this is how it ends? The rest is just filler.

What the fuck guys.

Originally? To be a mysterious final antagonist. Now? Just an obstacle so we can get to Queen Incest vs Retarded Dragon Mom.

reminder Bran becomes the Night King

Why is he doing the white person smile?

Why didn't they ask him what he wanted? Maybe they could have talked.

implying there's anything evil about Jon
implying there's anything good about Cersei

Oh yeah Cersei and Euron are so complex and grey.

To kill Bran, which will be revealed as the true villain in the coming episodes.

>all this build up to kill the night king on the premise that it will kill the rest of the undead
>the night king dies
>a crown of ice grows on another white walkers head and he kills Ayra

It would have been so easy.

So his one weakness was getting stabbed with a knife?

>Have 100,000+ Dothraki/Unsullied soldiers and cavalry

>Have 2 fire breathing dragons

>Have the tactical advantage and a keep to siege from

>All your army is dead, wiped out as they wave flaming sabers

>Your keep is raided

>You are magically saved by a 4 foot tall girl who magically teleports, and kills the Night King, who has been built up for 8 YEARS, in one blow

>One little kid is more powerful than 100,000 soldiers, 2 fire breathing dragons, and the combined might of several kingdoms

>Able to move insanely fast, teleport, and kill the main bad guy, in one shot.

>Jon Snow does not get his battle

to weaken dany's army

The showrunners didn't know what to do with the others so they created a big bad who turned out to be a medium bad. They wrapped a bunch of lore and prophecy so they could throw it out the window by having arya kill him.

our expectations of them sucking off arya every chance they can get?

Why did the ice dragon shoot fire?

why do you think its an ice dragon? are you retarded?

I assume GRRM has them by the nuts and they couldn't use any of the material he has planned.

He represents white males.

It is an ice dragon.

I'd like to spend time exploring your messy grey zone.

lol haha yeah

GoT is already anime so there's no real difference

>final boss is gay looking reptilian ice zombie
lol, tolkien would never

If thats the case, and they know how George intends for the books to end, they could've atleast done something that wasn't embarrassing

Better question is what was the point of Bran? What would’ve changed if he died in season 1?

I'm pretty sure all they know is who is alive/on the throne at the end of the series
the series really went to complete shit past the books

So wait, did Jon die to a no name faggot?

The original crow would have happily sat in his cave with the children while the world froze

yes

WHERE THE FUCK DID SHE COME FROM. WHY DID NONE OF THE WIGHTS OR WHITE WALKERS STOP HER. HOW THE FUCKED DID SHE HAVE THE SPEED TO JUMP UP BEHIND HIM. WHERE'S WOLF. WHY DID THE WHOLE LIVING ARMY DIE EXCEPT THE MAIN CHACTERS? WHY DID THE GIANT NOT KILL LYNNA? WHAT WERE THE WIGHTS DOING IN THE GREAT HALL FOR TWENTY MINUTES WITH THE HOUND AND THE RED PREIST? WHY DID THE MAIN CHARACTERS GET PILED ON BUT NOT KILLED? WHY DID EVERYONE IN THE CRYPT LIVE FOR TEN MINUTES? WHY DID BRAN JUST WATCH THE BATTLE? WHY DID THEON CHARGE INTO THE NIGHT KING? WHY WAS THIS EPISODE MADE IN THE FIRST PLACE?

Thank god I stopped watching this trite years ago.

damn 8 seasons of buildup for a 1 episode payoff?

sure wishing georgey finished the books ahead of time cuz these showrunners ran this series straight into the ground

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAS

Didn't Sam figure that out by himself anyway?

I'm pretty sure there will be one, but instead of being some random being, it'll be Stannis after he dies fighting the WW or Euron or some shit.

arya pretty justifiably became a badass over several seasons. this show tanked in quality after like s4 but dont even compare arya to cpt shoehorn

no. sam just figured out about the secret marriage. he had no way of connecting anything to jon personally

To produce a single, blessed image seen here:

my new desktop image

His purpose was to kill most of Dany's army so that Cersei, who has been given more plot armor than anyone in the show, will seem like a threat again.

>And whatever other shit they dole out in the last three episodes
The crew will take dragon/s to wherever the walkers took that kid of Crastor gave them. There they will discover that "There Must Always Be a Night King" and he is regenerating.
Jaimie will be the kingslayer one final time after Arya nothing personells NK again. He will take up the mantle and forevermore contain winter, the walkers and whatever other spookems are waiting.
Cerci is never covered or mentioned again
Final episode is a timeskip Harry Potter style where all the kids are named for three main characters.
>Sansa Petyr Stark the third

Night’s King does though

How long until ASOIAF: Brotherhood? 20 years?

to subvert your expectations incel
but seriously, a few days from now the normies will realize just how fucking awful this was, when the budget of the next episodes is shit and we get 2 episodes of complete horseshit again before cersei dies and they give the show a harry potter ending, fucking unbelievable, I've had more satisfying diarrheas than this, also

Battle of the Bastards was better

where has all your overthinking got you?

GoT went to shit the moment Ned died to be honest

That was the moment I respected the show the most. Every cell in my body told me he wasn't going to die due to some kind of bullshit deus ex machina, but he died like a bitch. Full respect. RIP, Ned.

I do not understand the purpose of the white walkers. Are they just slightly smarter zombies?

I also didn't understand the purpose of white walkers. I thought I would, but then they all fucking died before they explained what the fuck was up with that. Fuck.

Not as badass as a lot of other characters though

lol what grey zone

jon is generic good guy fantasy hero and cersei is an evil cunt through and through

This show is basically Harry Potter tier at this point.

A greater threat that the people of Westeros ignored in favor of their ultimately meaningless game of thrones. So of course it's important for him to job to a goblin and ultimately never threaten 99% of the population not to mention only killing side characters so we can get back to the all important question of who is going to sit on the throne. I skipped 5 seasons to watch this episode and it's honestly insane. It's like two different shows that mistakenly got assigned the same name. GoT was never about this epic high fantasy magic battle shit. It was about political subterfuge and people's greed getting the better of them. The white walkers should have stayed a metaphor. GRRM was right to sit on his lazy ass and never progress the story this far.

GoT provides way more grey zone than any other popular show I can think of in the recent past. Give me one show on TV that makes you as conflicted over a character as GoT does with Jaime?

You're a dumb motherfucker, you know that?

Literal side-quest.

Not all heroes win in the end. Hitler's life is a great example of a tragic story of a hero that couldn't save the world from the kike menace. Had he succeeded the writers of this garbage show called GOT would not be here and probably we would all be doing something more productive with our time now.

Based, one honk for each dubs.

I don't watch TV anymore. This was the last show & what I got was nonstop ass rape. I'm done with television.

This, and this is what Gurm meant when he had "mixed feelings" on this show's ending.
D&D actually did something more retarded than I could've possibly imagined: they treated the main prevailing threat of the entire series, the armageddon of Game of Thrones, the literal ice in A Song of Ice and Fire, and decided that fighting Cersei for the Iron Throne took higher priority.
They have thoroughly fucked the entire point of the series.

Hold that thought. Better Call Saul is the last show & if Gilligan fucks me like D&D just did...so help me...

lmao yeah bc Jon is definitely not good and Cersei is definitely not evil

Now that the existential threat built up for 8 years was killed after 1 episode, we can go back to vying over who gets to sit in the big, uncomfortable chair

Memes aside VInce Gilligan isn't retarded and was probably the only behind-the-camera reason X-Files was good at all.
D&D meanwhile make fucking Chris Carter look like a genius.

I have never felt such dissapointment in a show desu they fucking hyped that faggot up for 8 seasons barely showing him and I thought he was going to tell bran his motivation and origins or some shit only to get killed off in the most anticlimactic way possible

I was hoping he'd 1v1 Jon. Jon didn't even have to kill him or vice versa. Just that fucking fight.
The dragon fight was also a mess and consisted almost entirely of Jon and Dany being retarded and flying around in the fog.

literally nothing
he doesn't even exist in the books

A FUCKING GOBLIN KILLED HIM
WHAT A FUCKING WASTE

>way more grey zone than any other popular show I can think of in the recent past
that's such a sad thought. The only remaining possible grey zone is with the dragon queen but even then she's a symbol of feminism so we're unlikely to see much grey.

the entire dragon melee was trash. just a bunch of close ups and shaky cam

What time? There's three episodes left. They can't explore shit anymore, they have to rush the ending.

To warg into Bran

The episode makes sense.

I mean, really, it does. Season 1 started with Ned being "the main character". Everyone though he was gonna be the main character, gonna solve all the problems. And what happens to him? He dies. He's not the main character. He never was. That's not that kind of story.

Cut to season 8. Night King. The main villain. The big bad guy. The Great War. Well guess what? He's not a main villain. He dies. Cersei is the main villain and Euron with his big cock.

This show has REPEATEDLY trying to tell everyone it's not LOTR. This whole show, the whole theme is subverting your expectations.

"There's only one war that matters. The Great War, and it is here"

Said by a guy that was supposed to be the chosen one. Azor Ahai. But there was never Azor Ahai. He was never the chosen one, and there was never the great war. Just a big ass battle between Cersei that is just gonna sort of happen now.

The show begun with subversion and ended with subversion. That's what they always wanted to do. The only people that are fools are people who got baited.

There's a reason why David Benioff and DB Weiss were hired by Kathleen Kennedy. They operate on the same kind of thinking Rian Johnson does. Having your expectation subverted. Snoke never mattered just like Night Knight never mattered.

And now it begins. No, now it ends.

If Euron was book Euron, I would be pretty okay with him and Cersei being the final villains. But this is just gay.

He was Caesars barbarians.

Caesar didn't come to power in a day, he took down the barbarians that threatened Rome and was hailed a hero for it while his competitors schemed and fought among themselves. The Night King was as to Jon what the Barbarians were to Caesar.

Had this series taken place without dragons, magic and undead this entire story plot line would not have been so utterly stupid and would have been something more akin to Caesars conquest of the Germanic people to the north of Rome, an event detached from the rest of the kingdom but praised throughout it.

Lets be honest this entire plot line should have been finished last season with this season only being about the North vs the South. Putting these two major events in the same season has been a disaster. I blame the sandsnakes for wasting so much fucking time for everyone.

>brown eyes
>green eyes
>blue eyes

Honestly what I was expecting them to do is kneel in front of Bran.

If he had said anything before Arya jumped at him, what would you have wanted him to say?

So why was marking Bran so important that he needed to show up personally?

At this point I don't think they'll even answer that.

>the girl trained by the teleporting people can teleport

Let me ask you this, what is the point of any character in the show? Any character who has undergone a character arc never had a complete arc and still dawdles in-between. The Hound is still crying like a bitch even though he accepted death two seasons ago. John died and became even more of a dumb cunt. Dany mercilessly kills thousands of people with no consequence. Tyrion consistently fucks up. Littlefinger just wanted underage poontang. The Night King was just a Tolkien villain. And on and on it goes.

If you think he warged for nothing during the whole fight without it being a major plot device later on, you are sorely mistaken. It wasnt just for an aerial shot of the battlefield

PRESS R1 TO KILL NIGHT KING

Then what did he do with those ravens? What could he have possibly done with ravens that would have mattered? Called the children? Doubtful

His purpose was to be a plot device to get all the Good Guys™ together and teamed up to fight the true big bads Cersei & Euron.

Hey, at least well have more arya/gendry fucking to look up to lads! Hubbadda hubbadda!

She's not actually pregnant which is why she was drinking wine after fucking Euron. She pretended to be to fool Tyrion. In fact she's actually going through menopause which explains why she looks upset after Euron says he's going to get her pregnant, and this was foreshadowed in the scene with Tywin and Olenna Tyrell where Tywin convinces Olenna to marry Loras to Cersei in episode 6 of season 3. "Your daughter ... [is] old ... her change will be upon her before long."

This, I don't even see the point of watching any longer. Just the thought of it is tedious as fuck, the incoming pending doom which was the nk and his army was what kept us coming back

...

Red herring

The problem with that is you don't dedicate a shittime of screentime and build up expectations for a red herring. Unless they resolve shit like the NK's origins and how it really ties to everything then they're just gonna leave a bunch of unanswered questions.

How does any of this tie to the human plot at this point or its just a contrived way for people to die and show off special effects?

>that fighting Cersei for the Iron Throne took higher priority.

im honestly fine with them killing the NK early like this if people like Stannis, Tywin, etc are still alive to fight off for the last time.

Relax, the night king isn't really dead. There is ALWAYS a night king. He's just back north of the wall now working his way down with a second army.

good job user
looks a lot better than my crap edit at least

Serious question, now that the night king is dead, does anyone really care who gets the iron throne?

He's not dead. The prophecy hasn't been fulfilled. In like season 5 you see him wighting a baby. There's ALWAYS A night king. he probably has a few 'heirs' saved for just this sort of thing.

We’d be colonizing space and fucking Aryan qts by now. What’s some kino for that feel?

If you think that Dany and Jon won't end up sitting on the Iron Throne together and rule happily forever after, you haven't been paying attention to how shit the writing in the show has gotten

NK=Bran. they look exactly the same just one is blue.

Idk if you read the books or not, but the Night King literally isn't even a character in them. Nobody knows if he's going to be introduced at some point or if he's a D&D creation, in which case its entirely possible they just made that shit up as it went.
