When even Rian calls out your bullshit
Is he jabbing at people who wanted a proper send off to snoke?
Why is Hollywood destroying everything?
>LOL WHY ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING OF EFFORT WITH CHARACTERS WHEN YOU CAN JUST UNCEREMONIOUSLY KILL THEM OFF EARLY :P
>I AM A GOOD WRITER BTW
please, please, god, let this turn into some kind of twitter shitstorm
what a gigantically hypocritical faggot
good point I think he might be
Yes. OP is autistic.
What's the theory?
yes but watch idiots completely miss the point
they are writing for the loud social media fandom
they are too affraid or just incapable to create something new and authentic
He's being a facetious faggot like always.
Bran(i.e. blood raven) and the NK are actually on the same side, and/or the same entity. There goal isn't to kill humans, but rather they want to bring back ye'olden times were humans danced in the wood nakid and worshiped butterflys like the children of the forest do.
>they are writing for the loud social media fandom
No. They are writign to subvert countries and demoralize populations.
LOOK HOW COOL AND SKILLED I AM
the same loud social media fandom loves women who act like rude men, brown refugees, trannies and socialism
also, is it commonly accepted that this night king guy just looks like a blue variant of darth maul?
I don't watch this show
he's being sarcastic. he doesn't care
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.
Shock value and the power of social media. They want controversial moments like this to create discussion and publicity. Good and straightforward storytelling just doesn't create the same level of attention. That's the sad reality of it.
>reddit spacing
>>>out
So they want to demoralize the world and pit us agaisnt each other using social media and this bullsiht? Sounds like terrorism to me.
Sending the message that women only win via trickery. Tsk tsk.
I said he got Last Jedi'd too. Sad
HOLY FUCK
HOW WILL HBO EVER RECOVER?
>look everyone, this shitty and underwhelming villain death is exactly like the one I did!
this is a point of pride for him why?
Fuck you and your gross fucking wife, faggot
really makes you think
the first fucking scene is the rangers running from a white walker
>You're Night King Theory Sucks
Overly inflated unearned hollywood ego
Demoralization maybe, at this point it's obvious they are shitting on everything deliberately
Glad his career is dead. What an insufferable faggot.
W-w-was this ryan's plan all along?
>Netflix
>Canceling anything
Color me amazed.
Snoke didn't deserve a proper send off and anybody who invested time, energy, or emotions into him were headcanon retards.
I CLAPPED! WOMEN ARE POWERFUL!
>This show has REPEATEDLY trying to tell everyone it's not LOTR.
Why is the twitter account so desperate to say its better than Helm's Deep? It isn't, it's boring as fuck, and a pig nosed goblin kills the Night King.
You're wrong, Arya did that move vs Brienne in season 7 back in August 2017, the last Jedi came out in December 2017. So if anything, Stars Wards copied GoT.
thanks rian for ruining game of thrones
who mentioned sói wars?
Im not gonna lie i legit thought the night king was gonna bow down to Bran and fuck off with him but I guess im too much of a brainlet
in all of the other star wars flicks the lightsabers turn off when people drop them why is it different here?
the post you replied to
do they not realize that they'd likely just drop their weapon to the ground rather than grabbing it out of the air?
This movie is an extreme failure of execution. Look at the guard. He doesn't even try to swipe at Ray after she lets go.
This but ironically
Why does everything have to subvert our expectations nowadays? Arya killing the Night King is unexpected yes, however it is enormously anticlimactic and doesn't deliver on the years of speculation. There is no payoff, especially after seeing the Night King survive Dragonfyre.
Call me old-fashioned, but this is the same issue I had with the Last Jedi when Luke's fight is ultimately meaningless. Archetypes are essential in storytelling and the Fool should never beat the King. Here's how I would've solved the Night King's defeat and I fully recognize that he needs to be stopped at Winterfell:
>Aegon embraces the Dragonfyre and we are lead to believe he's dead. Cut to Bran and the Night King.
>Same scenes ensue, however this time Arya doesn't kill him but he kills Arya. Turns out Dragonglass or Valyrian steel doesn't kill him. At the same time we hear a faint howl from the Ice Dragon.
>The viewer has lost all hope now, the last chance at ending this war is gone with Arya.
>Night King about to slice Bran in half.
>The light of Dawn shines between the Night King and Bran.
>Night King looks to his right, where Azor Ahai emerges jumping through the undead on Ghost, shrouded in a flame cloak wielding a glowing sword.
>Queue exposition between these ancient entities.
>They fight until Aegon or rather Azor Ahai slices the Night King in half.
>The undead wither away and the flame extinguishes from Aegon, leaving him mortal again.
>In his last moments he looks to Bran smiling, knowing full well he fulfilled his destiny in saving the world.
>His borrowed time is up and he dies on his knees holding his sword.
>Here's how I would've solved the Night King's defeat
have sex
>OP unfollowed him for a screenie.
>Why does everything have to subvert our expectations nowadays?
TO DEMORALIZE POPULATIONS
I'd be surprised if my enemy completely let their guard down too
pray you're not born as a NPC again in your next life
I did, then I watched this crap.
This is the fucking worst part. Darth Maul is literally a better character. Maul directly interacts with the protagonist(s?) throughout the movie, however brief.
The Night King has absolutely no connection to 99% of the characters. He interacted with Jon ONCE, and even then all they did was stare at each other across a 15 foot gap of water. That's it.
Now, out of nowhere, Dany flies in and saves some literal who she just met. Night King kills dragon, but it's not like the main characters really could have seen who did it. He was just another mindless zombie to them.
Now he's an easily identifiable character? Everyone could recognize him. Fuck, Darth Maul is shakespeare to this trash.
Come to think of it this could explain the influx of prequel sympathizers.
At the time of their release, there were shitloads of far better movies releasing at the same time. Movies were just better in general.
Now newfags are comparing the SW prequels to modern writing, where it can actually hold up.
It's like the prequels were ahead of their time in the worst possible way. They were too stupid for the decades in which they released, but are right at home these days.
He’s just being a passive aggressive little bitch, as always.
but WHY? 9/11 changed cinema forever rip
Even though their writing is shit, their visual style are far more creative than the stuff we get these days.
Imagine seething this much
Jesus Christ, actual manchild
You made a bad film. You made an illogical, nonsensical film, both self-contained and in the context of the bigger universe. And you made a lazy film. You also shit on the majority of your loyal fanbase, both in the film and in response to social media comments about how said bad film was bad.
Get over it. Get over yourself. Maybe you aren't infallible? Maybe the fact that so many people disliked your film meant that it wasn't that good? Maybe they don't have it out for you, or Kathleen Kennedy, or Disney. Maybe it was a film full of inconsistencies, poorly written characters, cheap gimmicks, and messy narratives.
Maybe it just wasn't as good as you thought it was. As you hoped it would be. As you tried to make it. Maybe you're not as good a filmmaker as you thought you were. Just maybe.
Their visual style was also the only thing about the prequels that got praise at the time. It was an extra layer of disappointment; all those great special effects ruined by horrible screenwriting and phoned in acting.
shows the criticism is getting to him
He's got a nice cast (Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Toni Collette) for his next movie Knives Out, if it's also shit his career better be fucked beyond repair.
Lionsgate picked it up.
It's already dead.
At least he'll always have those Breaking Bad episodes.
it doesnt really matter how the night king is personally defeated. what matters is payoff in terms of story but they already fucked that up by showing his lameass origin story. the whole big white walker threat is just magic terminators going rogue.
On that note Bryan Cranston should take up directing. I liked his episodes.
>magic terminators going rogue
On paper it seems so fucking cool and they fucked it right up.
it's really disappointing, i hope it's not like that in the books. in the books the white walkers have intelligence, language, a material culture that indicates an actual society.
Considering that George himself is unhappy and surprised that D&D kept going without him tells me that he's probably had the same shit in mind.
To clarify, the same shit being that the White Walkers were a civilization, and not just golems for treejews.
this
Doesn't change the fact that both are shit conclusions.
But it doesn't matter. It's the same issue in TLJ. Pepper symbolism and ideas and then NEVER pay them off.
