Wow you only browse Yea Forums™. You're such a unique snowflake. I clap for you.

>DUDE NOT OUR FAULT LMAO, IT'S BUDGET CONSTRAINTS XD

not the user you're responding to, but while you're right that they had a crap ton of those things, there's still the problem of accuracy, especially VS a moving target. I was anti-air in my country's army (mandatory service here) and back then (I'm a dinosaur) we didn't have any special computer shit to help us practice shooting down aircraft. even with hundreds of years of technology with measures and shit attached to the aiming system, it was fucking difficult getting a proper shot on aircraft. and that's VS a fairly slow moving vehicle that usually goes in a straight line. now imagine a magical fire breathing beast that's flailing around the air in an unpredictable manner while simultaneously not having access to gunpowder or any other projectiles except by flinging it with some string? I know from history that ballistae had some major oomph, but aiming them at that accuracy, on a ship in the middle of the sea no less, is just honky. if something like that is ridiculously improbable with (somewhat) modern technology, I doubt hitting a dragon with a ballista shot from a ship in its:
1. heart
2. wing
3. neck
just like that is some major hax.

what keeps surprising me is how GoT fails not only at forming a larger plot. this is a given because GRRM is a hack and D&D can't manage his broken plots and multiple corners he has the fat fuck has written himself into
but how it also fails in the writing of individual scenes
what a fucking shitshow

It's not even the accuracy. It's the fucking impossible angles. The dragon got shot from 3 (THREE) different angles. From 3 (THREE) different sides. It's as if there were ships all over the map shooting, when it was later revealed they were grouped together in one location. It's like if you were stabbed in the back and then Arya reveals herself to be in front of you hiding behind a tree.

Daily reminder that D&D didn't run out of material to use, they voluntairly chose to end the series with this season and cut a lot of material from the books.
GRRM wanted at least 13 seasons, HBO 10 and D&D just 7; they settled on 8.

this. they just wanted out.
they'll get a lot of money for the next show they do but it will soon become apparent that they've damaged their careers by not at least doing something satisfying.

You see, in the books it's occupied by Stannis. But then after he gets fucked up Loras re-takes it from Stannis and pretends to get greivously injured in the process to trick the Lannisters. Because the Tyrells are making moves against the Lannisters, one of which is establishing a power base in Dragonstone.

But the show got so lazy they had to kill off all the Tyrells on the most convenient way possible that had no blowback because they didn't want them for their end-game. So that means that dragonstone has been a moot plot point since then because they're hack writers.

Why not? You need to pass by Dragonstone to head to King's Landing.

Dragonstone was unoccupied so Theon could rescue Yara. Even though she was in the middle of 1,000 ships.

Dragonstone was unoccupied so now Dany has it and can launch attacks from an hour away. And a place to rest her navy.

Nigga you don't know shit about AA warfare! Only in the late stages of WWII were allies capable of performing mass air raids because the Luftwaffe was decimated and Allies started producing Lancaster heavy bombers and Superfortresses. These planes had the advantage of being able to fly outside the range of most FLAK fire as well as giving them a harder time. The only time pilots flew 1km above surface was because they were doing CAS runs. That involves dumping your munitions on target and fucking off as fast as possible!

Pretty obvious the actors are all tired of the show and want to move on as well so we were never getting more seasons than this.

I know this is a troll but the early seasons of GOT had like 10% of the current budget. You can tell by the cheaper props and costumes and the fact that they didn't show the earlier Lannister-Stark battles, they took place off screen.

Yet the early seasons of GOT were a masterpiece. This proves good writing and acting trumps everything else.

>GRRM wanted at least 13 seasons
Sure because he didn't have to do shit, just sit around and collect paychecks for those seasons.
>HBO 10
Sure because GoT is a huge money cow for them, its expensive, but it makes back that money in spades. They were happy demanding the characters be flanderized to appeal to Q ratings though.
>D&D just 7
Sure, but they're huge hacks and did run out of material. GRRM gave them a couple of plot points and went "you figure it out". Of course, good writers who actually care about the source material could have made gold out of that, perhaps even come up with something better than George.
So yeah, nobody in that scenario you're describing is blameless for the mess the show is in.

Not in naval battles. Getting within 1km in naval battles was normal.

>You can tell by the cheaper props and costumes and the fact that they didn't show the earlier Lannister-Stark battles

You do know that the early Lannister-Stark battles weren't actually gone over in the books either, right? They're talked about after the fact, for the most part. Even that battle that Tyrion partakes in where he gets knocked out at the start (so you never get to see it) is faithful to what happens in the book.

The books has RARELY been about actively talking about a battle as it unfolds. The VAST majority of battles take place off-page and are talked about in hindsight.

>rhaegal trying to bite at the arrow

I bet the CGI team looked at dozens of wolf and deer deaths by hunting arrow to make this.

It was essential if you wanted to drop torps or bombs on a moving capital ship. Now you're also talking about mainly Jap ships, and Kap AA and crew were not even nearly as good as German AA. At the end of the war Japanese guns lacked the range to hit heavy bombers so they just had to sitt there and take it with the firebombing and so forth untill atomics came into play.

So how exactly did Dany not see the golden company from up on her dragon? They are literally behind a rock and she didn't spot one of the fleet?

Go home wikifag.

Season 1 Tyrion gets hid in the head and passes out, but in the book he participates in the battle and we get a whole chapter on it.

Whispering Wood we get Cat's PoV from outside the battle, granted.

Book 2 has multiple chapters of the Battle of the Blackwater, with multiple PoVs.

Winds of Winter will open with not one, but two battles happening simultaneously through multiple PoVs.

The only battles we don't see are Robb's in the Westerlands but that's because he isn't a PoV character.

Can you imagine the precision and luck required to hit a dragon flying at like 200ft, 50 miles an hour? 3 Bulls-eye hits at that. Fuck this show.

is this real wtf

The part about actual product placement wasn't but there was certainly a modern coffee cup there in open sight on the table.

But we're supposed to believe half of them lived because D&D said so, even though that's not what was shown on screen. Literally 100% of the Unsullied died on screen and most of the Dothraki, but nope only half now. Because they said so.

How did Dany not see a fleet of Greyjoy ships parked off Dragonstone when she was fucking 5000 feet in the air?

Things just... don't make any fucking sense. How can you ambush a dragon with ships? Had they been waiting behind that rock for a month? Once they missed with all the ballistae, why didn't Dany fly behind them and set the entire fleet on fire? Why didn't Dany's navy have scouts? Why have Tyrion and Varys gone from trusting Daenerys to literally considering killing her? This happened over the course of SINGLE episode. Because she's willing to siege King's Landing? What the fuck did he think was going to happen when they got there? What precisely is Dany supposed to do to press her claim on the throne? Does the prospect of Cersei and Euron jointly ruling all of Westeros seem palatable for the little people? Why the fuck did Jon tell his family? Didn't he get his moral code from Ned? Didn't he think Ned made the right choice by hiding his lineage? Why the fuck would Sansa immediately tell THE HAND OF THE QUEEN? Isn't there an IOTA of a chance he tells his fucking sovereign that Jon is out there spreading the story of his own claim to the throne? Why does Sansa fucking hate Dany so much? Her life was literally ripped apart by realm infighting, and now she's trying to split her brother and the woman who saved his life? Doesn't she know what happened the last time two Targaryens fought over the throne? Really? She's not satisfied with peace, the Starks ruling the North, Jon as Warden of the North, the Army of the Dead defeated, and probably a Stark-Targaryen dynasty ruling the Seven Kingdoms? Does she just not like Dany cause they're both kinda bitchy? What was the plan with negotiating with Cersei? Why would anyone trust anyone in this situation? How could Cersei possibly dream that she could surrender her crown and not immediately be murdered? Literally what possible agreement could the two parties have walked away with other than 'fuck you, bring on the Sapochnik episode'? Did Euron really not find it weird that Tyrion knows about Cersei's baby?

Realistically the only thing they need to gather support it's to visit castles with the dragons, but CGI is expensive. Gendry could get bannerman behind him in days.

Get subverted, INCEL

Are you aware the dragon was moving all over the place?

Game of Thrones has officially been TLJ'ed. The Night King got snoked the fuck out.

it's entirely possible that the dragon just wasn't flying in that direction anymore when the third bolt hit, or that he was bending his neck or something when the third bolt hit him there

There are no satisfactory answers to any of your questions.

Why in the hell did Euron just sort of fuck off after sinking the ships? Even if they couldn't kill Drogon, they still could have made off with/killed Dany's advisors and military leadership.

Well Drogon is estimated to be 1/5th the size of Balerion or Vahgar at their deaths.
Considering bother we’re around 200+ years old, it makes perfect sense that Danny’s are probably large juveniles or sub-adults, and the characters in the show, who have never seen an adult Dragon, don’t realize they are still actually quite small.

Based heliocentric retard.

Literally yes.

She is from a hippie island where they don't kill, they don't harm others... That's the argument D&D will use to justify it, BUT, the next thing she does is to tell Danny to burn the fucking city, she is in a relationship with a killer and has NEVER being against Danny's violence so there's no real justification.

KILL ALL WHITE MEN

i'm gonna get called a contrarian despite agreeing with the majority of this post but here goes

that decision didn't really work out well for jon, he had a pretty shitty time growing up, and yea he did get his moral code from ned but he's also become his own man now. i'm not saying dont question it but i think there should be a little more nuance here

as for sansa littlefinger had a tremendous influence on her, the same leitmotif when she lied to the lords of the vale plays when she tells tyrion, sansa would be anticipating what she said to spread. Sansa's life was ripped apart by the cutthroat world of the ruling class, ned died because he knew too much about what was going on with cersei etc, and the simplest explaination is she doesn't want jon anywhere near danerys, especially because she's his aunt, thats just gross. From Sansa's perspective Danerys is dangerous to be getting involved in, she's short sighted, and obsessed with ruling, she's seen these qualities in Joffrey and Cersei, and she's also seen how far people will go to legitimise their power when their bloodline is challenged, Ramsay being the cheif example.

apart from that you're on the nail

no...

i defer to the quads

Why isn't Jon dead? ice wrights die when their maker dies (standard vampire things, kill the top of pyramid and they all die, as seen in the last episode). She's dead. She fucking died last episode, why is Jon still moving?

He fulfilled his purpose of defeating the NK. The point of his resurrection is over.

How come ballista are more accurate and powerful than cannons?
They don't fucking work that way.
PHYSICS does not work that way.

Uhh, the prophesied one was Arya

I DON'T NEED AN ARMY
ALL I NEED IS 3 GOOD BALLISTAE

David & David are the shows writers.
Sorry I just couldn’t let that go on.

Google says they are a rock duo.

So they had enough money for the pointless zombie polar bear, but having sensible siege warfare and realistic amounts of loss in men and material after a bloody battle with mythical evil is somehow too much to ask?

Just turn your brain off bro lol

this

>they are constrained by budget
thedailybeast.com/game-of-thrones-finale-2018-how-much-will-it-cost

$15M a season clearly isn't enough. Jon/Dany/Tyrion each cost $2M per episode. There's not enough money for Ghost or the Dragons. There's barely a minute of dragon in this episode.

D&D are stealing the money

Why did D&D not include the fucking magical dragon horn that Euron brought back from valyria? Why did they completely ignore 90% of the reason that Euron exists as a charactwr and just turn him into xxx3ur30nsn1p3sxxx?

We see some of the Dothraki turn and run back, same with the Unsullied, and some may have been stationed inside the keep. I also seem to recall she left some troops behind at Storm's End, but that might be misremembering things.
>How come Arya didn't volunteer to take down Cersei?
That's pretty well what she seems to plan to do. Her plan is to sneak in while the war distracts people and get the killshot.
>How come Euron didn't chase down and kill the entirety of Dany's navy
Seems like they tried to get as many survivors as they could considering they caught Missandei, but most escaped. We don't see that scene, so no telling how it played out.
>How come Missandei didn't just grab Cersei and jumped off
She was chained and surrounded by guards.
>HOW COME CERSEI DIDN'T KILL CERSEI
Huh?
When you turn your brain on, you actually start thinking about shit that matters, like your life and your future and such.

budget of the original starwars was 300k.
budget of a medieval tv episode is 15 mil.

How does a ballista launch an arrow fast enough to tear a ship apart?

even cannons don't do that.

How did a ship shoot a dragon without dany seeing the ship? She had full view....

if i wanted to turn my brain off I'd watch fast and the furious.

The game of thrones books are intellectually stimulating. The show is illogical.

That why starwars looks awful.

First of all, there were thousands of ships each equipped with a ballista meaning thousands of ships were firing at a target the size of a fighter jet which wasn’t moving nearly as fast or nearly as high. Second of all, after Aryas Assassin Creed execution and only B-list characters dying during the Long Night you should know that nothing about this show is supposed to make sense.

costumes and armies cost a lot of money.

That's why all the storm troopers look the same. They only had 10 of those costumes.

That's why they used party store halloween masks for aliens.

No shit, I'd rather him use the dragon horn than shoot them with unrealistic scorpions

the lannister army uniforms cost £200 each, and they reuse them. they have about 300 of them.

Imagine 13 seasons of this shitshow holy god. I'm glad theres only 2 episodes left

There's no tension anymore and this shit is so anti-climatic and bad writing trying to hype up this bullshit that doesnt even make sense.

Sauce on gif?

How the fuck did they manage to hit the dragons anyway from a moving ship? That's some seriously slick shots (especially the neck shot) given the balistae only had a basic sight, not even a range finder.

She goes full mad queen next episode as she obliterates the city per spoilers but she didn't snap fully until Missandei's death.

Wyverns don't breathe fire though.

The ballistas mounted on the ships could swivel.

One of the shots didn't really connect and barely grazed off of Rhagal's shoulder.
Also don't forget his wings were fucked up and had holes so he wasn't flying as well as he usually would be.

The dragon was le injured already so it was maneuvering slowly. They told you that right in the scene before. The only thing that doesn't make sense is the scale of the battle. They were way too high in the sky for a bolt to do that much damage. Those bolts could've destroyed castle walls they were so strong.

biggest offender this season:

>80 minutes of nothing

>5 minutes of plot

WHY

THERE ARE ONLY 6 EPISODES FFS

in s7 the bolt barely hurt Drogon

No amount of swiveling can fire ballistics at the dragon from in front of it and to it's right.

first two episodes had maybe 10 mins of plot put together, battle had maybe 2, this episode had almost a good 20 mins. hopefully we can squeeze an hours worth if plot out of the season by the end

>Papa Tywin shit
As if more scenes with Tywin are a bad thing

they took 2 years for this season and it has more filler than most other seasons.

I'm guessing either she didn't send all her Dothraki/Unsullied north (some had to still be manning Dragonstone/protecting her other areas of KL) or that she had some more shipped from Essos. I doubt she brought 100% of her army with her across the narrow sea, especially because you see 0 women and children with the Dothraki.

Yeah I'm the simp for not realizing how retarded that sounds.

blamboozld

No user, you're mixing up Loras and Mace

>HBO wanted 10 seasons
>D&D wanted just 7
HBO probably couldn't fire these guys and get new writers more willing to do their job because of some contract jew bullshit, fuck lawyers, lawyers ruined GoT

just because it wasn't exactly like the source material doesn't mean it's automatically bad

They've made Dany retarded to keep the story going. There is no reason for them not to wait, regroup and then attack Kings Landing, especially if Cersei has to pay the Golden Company as time goes on.

>turn your brain on by turning your brain off

Quality doublethink

I'm really disappointed with what they've done for this season. that's all. :(

Me too :(

You forgot about the green quickfire that will kill the other half of danys army

If dragons were this easy to kill why were they a plot point for so long?

I mean seriously, you can off them with 3 big bolts?

Why the fuck is anyone that afraid of them then?

It's not even subversion, it's like that bitch from Hunchback stabbing the knight king

There's subversion and then there's just being fucking random to get audiences excited for stupid fan theories and articles for being right.

I don't know why fans think they're so smart when setups like this gets destroyed, you can still have subversion while not making it fucking stupid.

Can you take my dog with you? He's been a very BAD BOY and he needs to go to the VET! I told him I was trying to kill of those fucking Dothraki and Ser Jorah but no, he had to go charge the Undead with them and SAVE HALF OF THEM LIKE THE BAD STINKY DOGGO HE IS!

BAD BOY!

right.

it took 2 years to make a filler episode with jamie banging brienne as one episode.

Was thinking exactly this

"Don't stop. Believ..."

*TWOK*

The only explanation that can even somehow defend this is drogon was supposed to be the biggest and strongest dragon

> Final battle.
> Cersei against Danny.
> Despite having no combat training between them, they somehow fight as if this shit is House of Flying Daggers.
> Suddenly out of nowhere.
> IT'S ALMOST HARVESTING SEASON!
> A peasant with a pitchfork impales both of them.
> Expectations subverted.

This has to be intentional. So many people watch every cut of a tv show like this, then when it’s locked it gets sent to someone in QC whose job it is to catch these things. There’s no way they all missed something as obvious as this.

Shouldn't you be on /hoc/ or something?

Poor writing. If it was reality then this is as simple as it would be:

>Dany would torch KL and the Iron Fleet at night. Good luck tracking and shooting fast moving dragons at night
>Dany would just wait til there was a day when the seas were a rough (or rainy) and torch the Iron Fleet. Good luck shooting her while trying to acct for weather patterns, waves, wind, and rain.
>Arya would just walk into Cersei's room and kill/abduct her.

Or best yet:

>Bran would just warg into Cersei and make her surrender.

Turn your brain off.

Would have been less gay if there was a giant volley of arrows instead of 3

>thousands of ships were firing at a target the size of a fighter jet
Did you watch the episode? It would have made more sense if what you claim was true.. if they had dozens of ballista being launched in the sky attempting to hit the dragon and knocking him down. But it only took 3 individual shots, all landing with 100% accuracy to kill the dragon. It wasn't until Dany approached Euron's ship that you saw them all aiming and launching at her.

Why would anyone give the slightest bit of a shit what happened to the White Walkers?
They didn't even matter, they were no threat to anybody. They barely even made it into the North before they were destroyed, and all it took to completely obliterate them all was to nick the commander with a special metal, and he never makes any attempt to avoid this or make it difficult. Even if they had somehow made it to the south someone else could have just stabbed him or shot him with a special arrow.

the great part is that most of these could have happened at the start of Season 7 when Dany arrived with 3 dragons and her full army and navy.

D&D fundamentally mis-structured the story the moment they ran out of easily-adapted material. They weren't even smart enough to realize they needed to resolve the Night King after the Iron Throne.

>House of the Undying
Forgot that was a cool part in the books. I don't think I'll ever reread this shit though.

guess the retard contrarian really did turn his brain off

a few of these are reasonable, but most are just autistic refusal to accept any variation.

What really sucks for me is how ready are varys and lil guy to betray someone they swore to. Don't wanna go all you know what but they are such women in this regard, going for the better thing the very fucking second it shows up. Did they even produce a single decision that even justifies their existence and reputation of "smart" individuals? Stark fucks and their readiness to abandon any and all vows because of muh family makes them no better than lannisters, and the exchange "we owe her - no it was arya who actually killed the night king" cemented for me that the writers were reaching for fucking straws and there is no fucking way an actual person who is considered smart and decent would go for that angle in an argument, like yes you are horrible now and arya actually could have solod the nk and all of his army couple of seasons ago but you fucks refused to acknowledge any of your established realities in favor of ungrounded plans you conceived. Fuck i'm not even remotely mad, i just feel disgusted and perpetually nauseous

betraying Dany makes no sense because dragons (should) make her unassailable as a monarch and everyone wants the person in charge to stay in charge so there can be stability.

Varys and Tyrion would be arguing with Jon day and night to marry her instead.

youtube.com/watch?v=MfJWst-gODM

Let's make the scale even smaller. Why bring back that dragon after he clearly was killed by the undead dragon just for this shocking moment?

No shit, dragons are supposed to the nukes of their world. It would be like trying to kill the only person with nukes that are also sentient so you can't even assassinate her because the nukes will still go off.

He´s not Bran anymore.

>So how exactly did Dany not see the golden company from up on her dragon? They are literally behind a rock and she didn't spot one of the fleet?
The fleet was using over-the-horizon radar to track the dragons

Those ballista were actually electromagnetic rails.

>"just make 100000 ballistas bro"
so dragons are just pathetic winged rats

Just attack at night bro, its not like they have search lights

>The intelligent viewer knows to selectively ignore those flaws for his enjoyment.
>Reward lack of foresight and planning on the part of the directors and producers and writers with admiration
flaws are flaws, no one cares how they happened, just that they did. You can make excuses for everything, but at the end of the day, you are either remembered as a failure or a success.

Game of Thrones will reach Dexter status. It it is fun to watch while happening but has ZERO rewatchability

>By the 17th century, jean was a crucial textile for working-class people in Northern Italy.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeans
One would think that jean fabric was invented a lot earlier if it was "crucial" by that time. If GoT wants to portray a roughly 15th century equivalent world (Wars of the Roses and all that) then someone wearing jeans is not that out of place at all.

fuck back off to reddit nigger

In the books? It's implied Jon wargs into Ghost just before he dies so his "soul" and consciousness was saved that way, and when his body was reanimated he simply un-warged and came back relatively intact compared to Beric or Stoneheart. Since his soul was not retrieved from the afterlife by Melly (because he was never there, unlike in the show), he could conceivably outlive his re-animator.

In the show? DABID DABID BRING THE IDEA CRAYONS

Oh Jon isn't dead in the books?

They made a 7 season plotline to get Brain to be the 3 Eyed Raven because "he was integral to the fight against the Others" only for him to do fuck all except reveal that Jon wasn't Ned's bastard (a fact that Sam was already half-way into uncovering).

slightly less
you simply can't just make bolts magically lethal at 500+ feet AND have them fly straight AND have them capable of splintering ships

because it was beautiful, he was a good friend

>not pairing ballistas into firing teams high/low
>if first shot hits center of mass
>second shot will hit neck or head

>not studying hill-hiding naval combat

you would obv never make it in Euron's proud navy. Even role playing

Euron blindfired in the general direction of the dragon and his friend Cthulhu made the shots hit with his god powers

How did qyburn just disappear after tyrion moved forward and Mel was beheaded?

He didn't fly so good.

for the last fucking time it is ballistae.

>yfw boats took more harpoons before sinking

This show is trash.

Winter innit

Bookfags are insufferable autistic children with any show/movie.

Yep, I'm thinking this is most based post on tv right now.

so, absolutely no one is gonna talk about the fact a large fleet of dozens of ships manage to ambush as easy as a knife cutting through butter an enemy general base UNGUARDED ???

YOU ARE AT FUCKING WAR AT ANY MOMENT AND NONE OF YOUR STUPID SCOUTS ARROUND YOUR OWN GENERAL BASE WAS ABLE TO SEE EURON'S FLEET IN THE LIGHT OF THE CLEAR DAY ABOVE ALL ELSE ???

Tell me which strategist in any fckin history didn't get scouts to clear his path and patrol his base all day long ????

What D&Dumber did is like saying that the russians ambushed america in their own bed without america patrolling nor noticing.

What the FUCK ?
The story is even more dumb when you think Dany could have led a siege on Cersei looooong before she got any scorpions manufactured. Fckin dragons are useless now, the Night king was just an excuse to weaken Dany's side.

Pathetic.
