DAILY REMINDER THAT THIS WILL ALWAYS BE HOW GAME OF THRONES ENDED AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT

I'm still in disbelief.
They killed him in the worst way imaginable.
It's so bad that it would have been better if he slipped over and landed face first onto dragonglass.

it is actually kind of decent and is typical with GoT. every season you get the unexpected. i don't know why people hated it so much here.

you know they fucked up when Yea Forums makes a better episode

That's what makes this even more hilarious. Arya killing The Night King easily would have been a dumb anti-climax had this been E05. Doing so in E03 is insane.

I think the show has sucked for 3-4 seasons now and this was worse than I imagined it could be

Unexpected would have been Jon, Dany, Tyrion, Sansa, Arya etc. being overwhelmed and dying. Game of Thrones would have become GOAT but instead chose a lame cop-out.

The White Walkers were supposed to be The Apocalypse. This is even worse than Mass Effect 3.

Not it's not decent in any way. It's like Legolas shooting an arrow straight into Sauron's Eye and it just explodes and good guys win.

no, this would have been unexpected

i wasn't expecting it, clearly you werent either, that is if you even watched the show. i thought it was a solid twist to have arya kill it.

Imagine being this stupid.
People like you are why the show does this unexpected shit now.
The death of Ned, joffrey and the rewedding all made sense in the world established by GRRM.
Also unexpected doesn't mean good, subversion for the sake of subversion is poor writing.

When did "SUBVERTING EXPECTATIONS!" become popular?

GOT has been bad for a while now. Perhaps S4 onwards. There's been some good such as Battle of the Bastards. Opening of The Winds of Winter. Ending of Hardhome and The Spoils of War. Aside from those it's been meh.

imdb.com/title/tt6027912/

The Long Night being destroyed on IMDB and for good reason. 8.8 for an ep which should have been 10 is so bad.

people like twists. arya killing him was a twist. this is entertainment, not shakespear.
this was just like any of the events you listed. those are all twists..
what's GRRM?

So your problem is that the show that was all about subversion of storytellingtropes subverted the Heros Journey?
Building up the heroic prophecy for years only to have someone better qualified drop in and killsteal Jon makes absolute sense

who the fuck cares

I don't really mind Arya killing the Night King, but the way they did it was garbage.
They killed him way too early and she shows up out of fucking nowhere.

Did you enjoy The Last Jedi as well?

it's shocking how much of GoT was just completely pointless filler looking back

>what's GRRM?
this is the average GoTfan

She fucking jumps on him from the trees, what's not to get.
For all we know she hid there after her encounter with Melisandre and protected Bran until the NK showed up only to drop on him
I hate the entire Star Wars Franchise and I didn't watch TLJ

>We're saying that it was good
It wasn't good. In fact it wasn't even bad. It was so fucking awful it retrospectively killed the entire show.

>I can't enjoy character focused drama because the wrong person stabbed the big bad after eight seasons
Why?
The growth they go through and their journeys are still interesting.

Agreed. Should have been a massacre. Confirmation that The Night King is as bad as was said for 8 years. Everyone is overwhelmed and dies during Ramin Djawadi's interlude or something. Maybe plot-armoured characters such as Jon, Dany, Tyrion, Sansa, Arya, Bran and Jaime somehow escape. Retreating to King's Landing and get Cersei on-side before Round 2 vs. The Night King at King's Landing.

Would have made much more sense...

This is what I thought they should've done. The North puts up a good fight, gets fucked, then have to retreat back to Kings landing warning the people as they head there. Cersei then captures everyone, is super smug, then the white walkers show up and big awesome battle ensues to finish the second to last episode. Last episode ties up loose ends and then everyone lives happily ever after (so to speak).

Biggest dose of TRUTH I've ever seen:

People don't like bad twists though

The Red Wedding was unexpected because it violated an internal rule of the GoT universe. "Hold the door" was unexpected because it introduced a new variable in its magic, i.e. time-travelling possession. Jorah getting busted by Daenerys was unexpected because he seemed like a loyal waifufag. Yet all of these subversions were plausible. And that's the difference with last Sunday's anime episode.

you don't enjoy the ride without the catharsis that is at the ending of the ride. Its why people rewatch movies because the ending made the journey enjoyable.

Think again to lord of the rings. Once the painfully long ending is done, you feel complete as its over and you wish to complete the whole thing again.

Now think of Lost with a great journey but a shit ending...why people don't re-watch it.

What? That’s not what the user was getting across, he was saying LOST has zero cultural relevance and is about as forgotten as HEROES. Oh wow, Abrams sure does make a lot of media that’s as filling as Chinese food, huh?

The show sucked from day one. Sean Bean executed that poor soldier just for the crime of surviving a white walker attack and came to tell of the threat. His reward, off with his head.
Sorry Eddard, you're not the Queen of Hearts.

>She fucking jumps on him from the trees
>from the trees

Stop with this. No, she did not jump from the trees. Watch it again. She clearly stealth runs from behind the White Walkers.

Please observe the hair of the White Walker suddenly blowing in the direction of the Night King just before we see Arya in mid jump.

this is so much better than what we had. Have everyone die, then bran go back in time to cause some fuckery and change the past like he did with Hodor

it was all a dream.. he actually kills arya and then jon goes nigmode and kills him

Arya was always my favorite character (in the books) so I don't mind.

See how the Night King is holding her throat?
The NK can warg humans he touches, like he does with Craster's sons. If a warg dies while controlling something, they live a second life inside of it. In the books there's a character called Varamyr Sixskins, a very powerful warg who can control 6 animals at once. As Varamyr is dying, he wargs into the body of a spearwife named Thistle. He's not powerful enough to control her, it drives her insane and she tears out her eyes and rips out her tongue. He ends up warging into one of his wolves and living his second life inside it. Thistle dies but is raised as a wight.

So the NK could be living a second life in Arya. A warg's original powers are lost in the second life, Varamyr lost control of his other animals, and the NK's army dies/ But Arya has wolf dreams, so she likely has warg powers of her own. Maybe the NK can master them. Also, Arya can face change so she can disguise her transformation.

Arya never met Melisandre in the books, but the Ghost of High Heart has a similar prophecy for her: "I see you. I see you, wolf child. Blood child. I thought it was the lord who smelled of death ... You are cruel to come to my hill, cruel. I gorged on grief at Summerhall, I need none of yours. Begone from here, dark heart. Begone!"

Also things like the faceless men worshiping death and becoming no one, and the NK in the show is both death and no one.

She doesn't jump from a tree you fucking retard. even in the behind the scenes shots they have her jumping off of a trampoline right behind the NK

I know exactly what he was saying and he's wrong about that as well, just as you are. Every single show after LOST tries to be LOST, including GoT, Breaking Bad, etc.. It's the most culturally relevant TV show ever made in terms of how it changed the medium afterwards.

Also it's 2019 you should be able to understand LOST by now. Step it up.

>Game of Thrones has been COMPLETELY FUCKED now. Forever.

But there are still five more hours of show to see. Would you be as upset if episode 3 was actually the last episode and came after killing Cersei and friends?

nope his eyes were normal for like a minute before she got there so no way they were flying here there its obvious she took a dead persons face and was hiding in the crowd for the perfect moment so what really happened is she poked her up out of no where really fast but she was laying down so the perspective made it look like she was moving in fast on the Night King

It's a big fucking deal and a major sin to break this. In fact in cat's chapter if I recall she was big on making sure they all were offered it by walder frey, and she was resting easier after that. Don't think the show conveyed that well.

nice bait

Don't get me wrong, i love cersei and everything about her character, she's one of my favorite.

It's just...how is the battle with her going to be tense in the slightest when arya one-shot the embodiment of death? It's like if Vegeta kills Frieza on Namek when they meet, and the rest of the saga becomes about fighting the Ginyu Force. Its like if Yamcha killed Perfect Cell and then the rest of the saga was spent fighting Android-19.

Eowyn killing the Witch King is kino in the books and still pretty good in the movie. This was a total hatchet job. Like anons said, who gives a shit about the Iron Throne?

You're wrong, idiot. Yes, Sopranos and The Wire are significant, but they represent refined dramas for adults.

LOST was the show that invented hype. The show that created Internet speculation. Basically the show that represents Millennials (for good or bad). So yeah, I think it is the most culturally relevant of the Internet era because it's basically the first one of its kind.

GoT could have surpassed it if it had retained some of its refined and mature elements while keeping the fun and mystery, therefore bridging the genres, but it hasn't. It sucks now and it has ruined its potential legacy.

Can someone explain to me why killing the Night King magically kills the entire army as well?

So when you claim Lost was special it's just because it happens to coincide with when the internet was becoming more popular? What a pointless claim to fame. I don't think anyone will say Lost was popular but it was complete shit and maybe you're right in the sense it started an era of shows where you just need to write something that breaks normality and that's pretty much all you need to do to have a sucessful show that normies will eat up.

She stealthily ran in from behind the White Walkers. She must have went straight to the godswood since running out of the room with Melisandra and the Hound. She must have been waiting in the shadows, watching the events, hoping that Jon would arrive any moment. When she saw the Night King attempt to draw his sword on Bran, she took off toward the Night King.

Here is a webm - The implication is that she silently and swiftly ran passed the White Walkers and jumped when she was close enough to the Night King.

That's already happened 24 times in James Bond alone. It didn't subvert any tropes. And that's just the ending. The whole epusode was bad on a technical/thematic basis.

It wasn't for S1-4 and it isn't in the books. It is so much more than that. That's the problem. It could've been the last great thing Western civilisation produced. But (((they subverted))) it.

Well they are still stupid but I have no doubt in my mind that there's going to one last twist. Probably related to Bran.

Will it make this episode better in retrospect? Fucking nah but still.

I actually felt something watching this.

No, look at the images linked in message you're responding to, she literally materialized out of thin air

>Weaker characters like Sansa drop off due to their own personal failings
this is the kino that was promised, but not delivered

>Will it make this episode better in retrospect?

reading the complaints, a lot of it is focused around thinking the main plot arc is over.

well, if the twist is based on something GRRM is planning to do in the books, there WILL be a link of some kind. so they just need to execute it well and it will address that specific complaint (although of course user will keep whining about something no matter what).

Arya stark Is one bad mother fucker.

Creators take notes.

When you want to create a powerful and incredible female character this is what you should emulate.

She is incredible.

killing off 80% of the cast with 3 more episodes to go wasn't ever really going to happen, user.

seething lmao

>she literally materialized out of thin air

the scene was directed like it was to make the twist surprising. the visual language of film allows for all kinds of time compression/expansion, and mucking with the geometry, it's part of blocking and so standard you literally don't notice how much it happens.

It wasn't ever going to happen, but it should have been given that it was apocalypse made manifest. This should have been the most Pyrrhic victory in modern fiction, but the cost was so low the result feels empty.

Other than Danny losing quite literally ALL of her cavalry, I doubt the next episode will really correct for just how many troops she lost in this shitshow before marching against Cersei

>a lot of it is focused around thinking the main plot arc is over.
Yeah nah. If I had my way, fucking 85% of the cast should have been dead with the way they directed this episode.

And if they don't resolve the entire Cersei conflict effortlessly using Arya alone then they're even bigger hacks than they already are.

Nah, you're just retarded. She literally materialized out of thin air, falling out of the sky on night king

I think there's going to be another twist. if they killed everyone off in one go the individual deaths would mean less and they wouldn't be able to have equally impactful culls in episodes 5 and 6.

plus you're ignoring that they can't just kill random characters off: main characters by definition have to be kept alive because no one's going to be able to get as excited for Podrick saving the day, or as happy when he does if literally everyone else is dead.

Then where did they explain how they got past the white walkers? or where she jumped from? or why the Night King didn't snap her neck and instead stared at her like a retard for 10 minutes? or how she even go to the point where she could get that close to him?

Because we are all at the bargaining phase.

Lost > GOT

A battle between Cersei and the north being interupted by the dead would have been more interesting. It always seemed that the show was heading in that direction where the battle for the thrown was secondary to the threat of the white walkers

youtube.com/watch?v=CxWZi0pdDVo

Imagine Lost airing during a time when social networking and twitterposting was as bad as it was now.

>Game of Thrones has been shitty for more than half of it's running time now
>suddenly normies and retards on Yea Forums realize it

Holy lel. I bet you faggots clapped and slurped onions during Battle of the Bastards too when Jon was a fucking badass beating Ramsay even though that whole episode was filled with just about as many plot holes and stupid moments as the recent shit

>ummmm sweeties?

My aunt has been calling my eight year old cousin "sweetie" since he could talk, and she says it just like you wrote it. Example - "Uhm, sweetie, it's time for your bath".. "Uhm, sweetie, lunch is ready".. "Uhm, sweetie, don't watch commercials". My brother and I cringe everytime we hear it. She is a new age hippie. She named my cousin Freeman and calls him sometimes Free and sometimes Birdy (free like a bird). She is a vegan. She has glowing salt rocks all over her house. She has fairies hanging from the ceiling everywhere. She has a barrel in the yard that catches rain water so she can water her vegetales with natural water rather than tap water. She loves, LOVES, GoT. She has GoT shirts, GoT coffee mugs, GoT stickers all over her garage door, GoT dreamcatcher hanging over her bed, and other little GoT shit all over the place.

Well, guess what happened two days ago. We were eating dinner at her house when she said to my mom, "Sorry I didn't call you yesterday. I was on reddit all day talking about episode three". She's a reddit fag. It fucking figures.

>they wouldn't be able to have equally impactful culls
But that's where I'd hold against. Tonally they don't need extended sequences of self sacrifice, they are the few named heroes fighting against an untold mass of thousands of years worth of undead finally breaking through the barrier of life. Dying ignoble deaths against an impossible enemy is the most consistent with the rules of the universe, and Brienne holding off scores of wights while screaming for help for upwards of half an hour makes Armageddon seem toothless

If Podrick of all people saves the day, it'd be a great moment to show just how fucking starved the cast are for heroic action. He was last shown to be more competent than his peers, and having him actually do something memorable like try ingto stall the White Walkers through death by dueling them to a standstill to protect Bran would have been absolutely kino contrasted to his character of just being a hung squire who can sing.

>she literally materialized out of thin air

You couldn't see anything more than three feet behind the Night King. The NK is surrounded by White Walkers, by caste walls, by terrain, etc. You can see none of it in that shot. It's a cheesy technique so that you can't see Arya running up behind the NK and leaping at him.

Arya runs from behind the White Walkers. She did not "materialize out of thin air". Her speed as she ran passed the White Walkers is shown in the hair of the White Walker blowing in the direction of the Night King. Whoooosh!! Arya is so fast and silent, you guys.

no it isn't. main characters in ASoIaF die because they get cocky and forget the consequences of their actions. it's actually totally legit classical storytelling which is why the books don't register as tediously flat and grimdark.

you mean like they did with Theon?

the more death scenes in an episode, the less impactful each ones going to be. given that even relatively minor characters have fanbases in GoT, I really think they're better off leaving characters alive if they can't figure out a way to make their death scenes mean something.

but like I said: I think it's going to happen and not going to be just because of Cersei and le epic pirate chad, so my optimism isn't based on just assuming the remaining 3 episodes are going to play out in an expected way.

I'm defending ignoring geometry of the scene to make a shot that looks cool and catches the audience off-guard to create a surprising moment that needed to be surprising for the story to work for normies.

D&D care more about normies than you and that's really all their is to it. I'm a bookfag since 2001 and I've learned to enjoy the show for what it is in spite of it's flaws.

>She has a barrel in the yard that catches rain water so she can water her vegetales with natural water rather than tap water.

imagine being so american that simply not wasting rain water and instead use water you must buy is something to mock

It's implied that was part of her training in bravos, incel.

So can nu-GoT cucks explain why the Night King didn't just snap her neck or throw her away or do....anything really?

Because he was cocky?
Because she was a master assassin the quickest of her kind?
Because YAAASSSKWEEEEN

Why didn't she just kill the Night King way earlier then if it was that easy? I mean if you can easily get past white walkers, not make any sounds (except screaming really loud when you jump because it'd be pretty fucking badass if someone was watching it on like a tv series or something) and kill the Night King in one stab, why did she bother waiting until this point then?

Because she was a main character
her plot armour was thicker than his

muh blue eyes

>because he was cocky

Pretty sure I've seen this excuse used more than a handful of times in bad GoT episodes and just bad capeshit in general. It's one of the worst justifications for bad writing

Because she only heard of the night king like 2 episodes ago, and only knew it was her destiny to kill him after Merysand dropped those kino hints.

Lost had no gays in the huge main cast and nobody cared. Different time.

It's like these bookvirgins think the show is made just for them. What does it matter whether the archers are in front or back or whatever, doesn't change the story or affect any of the heroes.

>instead use water you must buy

But that isn't the reason she states as the reason she does that. She wants to eat natural foods and drink natural things. She spends more money than she needs to because she shops at places like Whole Foods where everything is much more expensive but is claimed to be non-GMO. She is willing to spend extra. She had a reverse osmosis water filtration system with UV light sanitizer installed in her home. Parts and labor to install the thing cost her "$1200, but it is so worth it". Mind you, the filters have to replaced every three months and there are five of them and they cost over $30 a piece. Worse, reverse osmosis systems take the city water, filter it, and store the filtered water but wastes out 75% of the water it takes in. So, in effect, she is paying 4x the cost of water than she would if she didn't have a reverse osmosis. But she pours mouldy impure mosquito-infested rainwater from a barrel over her vegetable plants. Hurray for her.

No it’s not. Arya trained at the house of black and white which worships the same god of death that gave rise to the white walkers (in response to a request from the children of the forest). Arya, an agent of death who defeats death, is a parallel to the fact that Valyrian steel is defeating a monster created by dragonglass.

This is what Arya killing the Night King was supposed to convey to non-regards.
