Says several times she's going to burn down the city
bet she got a high pH pussy
Come on, Dany's entire character was always 1 part genghis khan, 1 part Joan of Arc, 1 part mother Teresa.
You could argue that they toughened her up a lot in the show, but she still freed slaves, stopped rapes, banned bloodsport, and a lot of other things that would lead you to believe that she wouldn't just annihilate a city like that.
Personally I think evil dany is totally fine IF the show effectively illustrates some change in her, or some particular hatred of Westeros, or whatever, but it DIDN'T.
People who have read the books can say "oh yea ok so it's like a Targaryen madness thing, she can't help it, she's the product of a thousand years of inbreeding from a family world-renowned for their cruelty and madness, gotcha."
But the show cut out so much of that shit, or only barely hinted at it, so when a Normie watches the show and Daenarys just fucking flips out from nothing, and you only have varys saying one line like "oh yea the gods flip a coin lol", people think the show just made her emotional and crazy.
Stop forcing this, Cunt.
>says shes going to burn innocent people
>people conspire behind her back to prevent this
>constantly shows characters making a choice to support her even though she might go crazy
>she goes crazy
OH NO HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
Except, while rushed, it does sort of explain her actions. Namely she decides that as she does not have the love of the people, she must rule by fear.
When the battle lasts all of five minutes, she razes the city as a show of force so anyone thinking of siding with Jon fears the same fate.
Hopefully the books will do the same thing in a better written, unrushed fashion.
She was so qt in this episode
She's literally Hitler now.
>burn innocent people
this again
>saying things
>doing things
Right, the justification sucked ass. The writers have always included flimsy-as-fuck justifications for the baffling choices they make, and they all sucked ass.
>Jaime MURDERS his cousin to provide a chance to escape. Y'know, cuz like...escaping is important! Right? Gotta murder!
>Oh shit we wrote Shae as being legitimately in love with Tyrion. Remember when we wrote her as a good person instead of a manipulative whore? Shit, but her testifying at the trial is important, how do we do that? Ok uh...she's super pissed at tyrion and now wants him dead!
>NOT MUH BOOKS SO ITS BAD
have sex
This arc lends itself more to the book readers, there's constant references in the novels about the Targaryens being so inbred that it's a 50/50 chance they're insane, a coin flip of the gods.
You don't have to follow the books to be good. The show did plenty of things that the book didn't that were fine.
When it's bad, it's bad.
>have sex
have sex
What's with the red feet? She been hanging out in Chernobyl threads or something?
She picked up a chunk of magic granite from Qyburn's laboratory.
not a great decision, but not horrible.
They thought the other two times she burned down cities she was good.
The plot points in this final season could've been fucking amazing if they were able to build up to them properly.
>Mad Kween
>Jon's horror at it all
>Tyrion's [X] Doubt
>Varys backstabbing
>Battle of Winterfell
These are great ideas. The acting is there. The cinematography and music are there. But jesus, the writing. THE WRITING, SANSA!
>but she still freed slaves, stopped rapes, banned bloodsport, and a lot of other things that would lead you to believe that she wouldn't just annihilate a city like that.
yet that doesn't really mean she doesn't think "only i can be cruel"
It's like if you got bullied by one guy in school everyday and at the end of the school year, you decided to shoot up the school and kill all the students, faculty, and resource officers. She was justifiably angry, but she went way too far.
I liked the episode
