worse
It was worse than I ever would have imagined it being.
Rewatching the first three seasons...yes. It is that bad.
Dust hasn’t settled yet. Give it a year and contrarianism will grow strong enough that the finale will have genuine admirers.
Kill yourself homophobe faggot.
It was pretty good story wise.
Can you imagine if Daenerys just took the throne and the show ended as predicted? It would have been a terrible ending.
Dany going mad makes perfect sense, and its a great ''plot twist''. The only thing you can criticize the show for is everything being ''rushed'', as they have to end the entire show in just 6 episodes.
LMAO, no, you are delusional. The ending will be viewed worse and worse, bet on it. Maybe if GOT ending would take some risk it would be viewed better long term, but not only is poorly executed but also bland, generic, predictable and safe. It was designed specifically for the biggest normies and popcorn audience and still failed big time.
It wasn't as bad as seasons 6-7.
Only retarded normies would disagree
Homophobe faggot
what a brainlet and pleb. Story was nonexistent in season 8. And no, Daenerys going mad queen doesnt make sense. She no worse than Arya, Sansa or Jon. In ASOIAF killing your enemies is norm, not madness. Even the show is teaching you in one of the first scenes that with Ned killing this guy from night watch.
Haveth coitus
It was legitimately Dexter tier.
It will never be remembered fondly by even one person
Yea Forums will not get this reference.
I think with time people will shit on it even more. As of now they don't quite realize how bad it was.
Its one of the worst finale season in television history. It tried to pander to the HBO tv family casual audiences with that Happy Starks and Tyrion ending but failed big time, and for people with taste it was just disaster on all acounts. Its just the most lazy, boring, bland season finale i even seen, with nonsensical writing, destroyed lore and mythology, and ruined character arcs.

Did D&D did this for us?
lmao absolutely seething, back to redbit with you faggot
Ask me again in 10 years.
Why do people say 6 episodes wasn’t enough? Most movies have entire stories within about 2 hours and some of the episodes this season were almost movie length. They easily could have wrapped it up if the writers had a clue what they were doing instead of being nepotism trust funders.
it was good enough, a better season than 5 and 7 for sure and probably on par with 6.
People are mad because it didn't go the way they wanted it to.
Too many casual capeshitters and walking dead brainlets watch this show and cant comprehend when things dont follow the same formula as all their other schlock. Also a big portion watch and treat it like a sports event where they pick a 'team' and root for them to win, team dany had the most supporters and lost so ensue outrage.
Basically the problem isn't the show, its the audience
This, 100%
The way they did the Night King dirty will never be forgotten.
also every other season is an adaptation of 1 book
s7+8 covers GRRMs final book so 13 episodes instead of the regular 10
For some reason people wanted another 5 season which would have been 100% pure fanfic with literally no GRRM material to work off. At least with this last seaosn they worked with GRRM to stick to the ending he wants to write
Check your fucking genderlidge you cis, ablist transphobic fuck.
DABID
Yes. They gave us an ending without years of context in place. Without 3 seasons of Bran doing favors for the lords of Westoros. Without Jon talking to anyone. Man fuck D&D for not just giving the show away to other showrunners. It deserved at least 10 seasons.
It’s terrible.
NK wasted, white walkers wasted.
Jon is a cuck whole season.
Varys acts like a retard randomly.
Sansa.
Dany doesn’t even go “mad”, she just get revenge. She had reasons to be angry, no way was it focuses on a Targaryen madness trait.
Shitshow, we should have seen it coming. First 2 episodes have nothing in them and the last 4 are rushed as fuck, fuck these Star Wars cunts, with the way that’s heading I can’t see it ever improving with these guys there now.
no it was great and the angry response is from people realizing they got tricked into rooting for Westerosi Stalin
Brainlets dont want to admit that they got her wrong and in embarrassment vent their anger at the writers.
The same people who found S7 to be one of the best seasons ever (rated higher than S1 on IMDB) are the ones that hate this season the most.
The writers (including GRRM) have achieved everything they set out to do, making you angry when things dont go your way. People swore off watching the show after the red wedding, people threw their books away and sent GRRM abuse emails. We are just going through that all over again.
I call bullshit. I'd honestly call that we dont even have the ending if ASOIAF. Just some sort of halfway point. Realistically if Winds doesnt end like this did Spring will be a time skip or include one in the first act. Real ending is 10 years later after Dany returns. In all likelihood they're probably betting on GRRM not even finishing Dream before it comes out. They gave themselves 10 years to return to the show and finish the story, hopefully with all the books out.
Since normies hated I loved it!
t. average Yea Forums poster
I would say the show should have ended with her death. Everything after felt like some cringeworthy epilogue shoehorning closure with fan service
If anything what this season has proved is that GoT fans are by far the most cringy self entitled faggots out of any fandom
You are literally petitioning the writers to remake the original authors story to something where you get what you want.
I also read comments where people uniroincally claimed that if Dany burns KL in the books then George doesn't understand her character
Lmao what a bunch of whiny cunts
Yeah, it really was.
it was poorly executed but how was it generic and predictable lmao
the generic and predictable ending which everyone on reddit and normies wanted would've been cersei getting btfo at the red keep by a single 'dracarys'. then king jon and queen daenerys and missandei and grey worm living happily ever after. that's nearly how ALL fantasy shit ends
This. And as for the bad writing argument, none of these fuckers cared about bad writing in season 5 when it was barristan, dorne, winterfell and stannis getting butchered. Now dany gets the short end of the stick and all the single ladies raise a media funded rage campaign.
>"OMG the writing is so bad! It's so rushed guys!"
Get fucked
Honorable man kills his fallen lover, a scholarly man becomes king and rules wisely and justly alongside his council of white men. How is this not generic?
It would have been more unique if Dany had to kill Jon Snow, we've seen the hero kill the heroine multiple times, its time for the opposite.
Yes
>scholarly man becomes king and rules wisely and justly alongside his council of white men

i dont watch GOT but i find it impossible to believe it's worse than dexter's last season
it's not even close to that level of bad but you will find some people who claim its the worst thing ever put on tv because internet opinions
In reality is was just mediocre and dull
Love the GoT EoE parallels. This is one of my favs: youtube.com
Maybe we will (Not) get a few GoT movies to rewrite the end of the series but for now, we'll have to settle for the abomination that is the final episode. I thought the leaks were just trolls, and I laughed pretty hardily while reading them, so you can imagine how I felt while watching it play out in the finale. I stopped laughing. I'm pretty sure I uttered, "No," on more than one occasion and the episode progressively got worse and worse.
Would prefer a bleak ending where she is no better than the other rulers who came before her and nothing truly changes. Aside from that the ending was ok, but it was rushed af. Jon being Aegon ment nothing. Him being king makes sense since he has shown to be a natural leader since the show began. Honestly though, nothing pisses me off more than Tyrion surviving. Literally talks his way out from death yet again
Better than the last season at least.
Gape your own ass
kill self
It was just as bad. Looking back it totally felt like 2 different seasons between episodes 1-3 and 4-6. It's disappointing knowing all the hard work the cast and crew put in
Maybe it makes sense if you watch it like you're watching animu.
Got is not a movie and the pacing did not align with the plot from the earlier seasons. We didn't see Danny fall into madness gradually. Instead it happened in a few scenes and next thing you know ding ding she's burning down an entire city and it's civilians
Wrong. You faggots can't discern bad writing when you see it, can you? Even some fans have written better conclusions to this series given all the development that D&D just forgot in the end like the symbols drawn by the white walkers that, I guess, meant absolute jack shit; a bunch of build up that led nowhere. Even this is better than the last season: youtube.com
At first I was happy because it triggered feminists in spite of everything else and blew out leftists, but after sitting with it it just feels like a betrayal of a 8 year long character, who looking back on I was wrong about, and the political message with tyrion's speech was a half assed crock of shit and just outright wrong
It's actually the opposite of what your saying. People are ok with the ending. The problem is how everything was crammed into 6 episodes when it did not need to
No one is expecting a rewrite. It's more so to send a message of how bad the final season turned out to be.
>bad writing
just a stock response from somebody still reeeeing about the story not ending the way they wanted to and now you just want it rewritten to follow your tumblr fanfic, pathetic
You know GRRM has said prophesies don't always come true or pan out the way you think, that character arcs don't always follow traditional paths. You know this is his ending right?
If you still don't like that then maybe you should unironically stick to capeshit as you are guaranteed to get all the cheesy fan fulfillment crap you can want
I wasn't talking about prophesies. I was talking about the basic structures of storytelling and writing and forgetting your own plot devices
Funny that you mention cape shit since thats what this season turned out to be. It literally was all down hill from the very first line of cock and balls
>youtube.com
>let's make it so Dany is the hero of the story
That's much worse than what we got. Her story is the only good thing about Season 8.
This. Episode 5 was easily the high point of the season
>let's make it so Dany is the hero of the story
that is what almost all these rewrites do, they want to make the events more sympathetic to Dany.
If Cersei sets her up using wildfire then they can just claim injustice, if she goes off the rails due to the dragon dying in battle then they can blame that as heat of the moment mistake. If she just goes after the red keep then that's probably redeemable for her as acceptable collateral.
Ultimately people could then shift the blame on Jon for killing her as not being able to understand or be sympathetic for her mistakes.
Anything to not have dany reveal her true colors
Faggots/paedophiles like you need to wear pink triangles and get put into camps.
Yeah because the Dany ending was rushed and out of character and the biggest flaw of the season, of course if you rewrite the whole show from season 6 it could be different but they're working with what they have
>Was it really THAT bad?
It's so bad that before episode 5, there were articles being written about how weak the dragons were. Then, out of fucking nowhere in episode 5, Drogon learns teleportation and defeats an entire armada equipped with scorpions, defeats all the scorpions in KL, and has enough mana to destroy an entire city all by himself in an afternoon. Again, 1 ice spear took out Dany's first dragon and 1 scorpion killed the 2nd dragon.
It's inconsistent af and pretty hilarious to watch. It's so bad that it's funny and maddening since you previously enjoyed the series.
Gonna have to say as horrible as the ending was, the scene where Drogon melts the throne and flies off with Dany's corpse, and the very last scene where Jon arrives at the Night's Watch, sees Tormund, hugs Ghost and then leaves with all wildlings as the true King in the North as the gates shut is pure kino.
It was even worse you fucking retard..so i guess you are a retarded normie
That makes you a reatrd
I already like the final season and refuse to buy into the memes.
>t.redditor
Your seething hate for it it is literally the most normie thing on planet earth right now normie.
Imagine the worst possible way of ending the show. The reality managed to surpass it.
>hbo wants at least 10 seasons but would do more because it prints money
>gurm wants 12-14 seasons since it prints money
>actors want more seasons because it prints money
>fans want more seasons because it would make sense
>dabid quickly wraps things up because they want to fard and shid out next 3 star wars
>normies blame hbo for this
it was the second worst episode of this season. Destroyed Jaimie, Daenerys, Hound character arcs and gave Arya another ultimate plot armor.
>the Dany ending was rushed and out of character and the biggest flaw of the season
If you think her turning into a bad person before roasting Kings Landing is how it should have happened then you're a genuine retard.
>destroyed Daenerys
Hold on, what's wrong about HIMYM?
Season 8 is not only shit season by GOT standards but its overally one of the worst finale season of all time. Season 8 of GOT is everything that ASOIAF stand against, its cliche GOOD vs EVIL story, with no subtetly and no depth we can see in ASOIAF, filled with shit, forced writing, shock value and subversion. And even looking at all the end plot points; they are just creatively bankrupt, unexciting, and boring. There is no imagination in this season.
You delusional retard i hate 5 6 7 seasons also they were full with fillers and stupid predictable scenes but season 8 was far the worst you dont have to be a normie tou undestand this.
The cunt died, which was satisfying, but the execution of the whole episode was as impotent as the new king
How so? Jaime going back makes total sense since he's always been a piece of shit. Danny going full Dresden on KL is the only good thing to come out of season 8
The more I think about it, the worse it gets.
this desu. The show became its own worst enemy. It's hilarious how the showrunners couldn't understand their own two-faced nature.
STFU, u mongloid capeshitter. Daenerys and Stannis are the most raped characters in GOT by far. It backfired on them, they wanted to make Daenerys unlikable in one episode, but it just didnt work with that shit, nonsensical and rushed writing and Daenerys fanbase even growed bigger. How much pathetic loser they are, honestly, if their big plot point of the season "Daenerys going into dark side" just failed in every single way?
I guess I can summarize the final season as "let's cuck Jon as hard as we can"
mission accomplished!
At least masterbate.
People here shit on the books a but I'm re-read ADWD right now, and it's just so much fucking better. I remember now why I hated season 5. The show has zero depth.
>"Daenerys going into dark side"
Did you really think the whore who started a war to fulfill her slef-righteous fantasies was a good person?
>Destroyed Jaimie, Daenerys, Hound character arcs
literally thought the opposite, each of them ended up in positions which entirely made sense for their characters
Frankly I fucking loved it,except when won snu's faggot ass killed kalisi, what a homo faggot am i right.
How was anyone shocked by her burning kings landing, I mean did you watch 1-7. You don't break your word,then behead the dragon queens; bff and expect to walk away from it like nothing happened.
p.s. FUCK JOHN SNOW I HOPE HE DIES SCREAMING.
It will eventually get the Lost syndrome. Absolutely everyone shits on it, but ten years down the line it will have it defenders who scream innate shit like "You just didn't get it, bro!"
>those typos
can GRRM really not write properly without an editor?
Agreed. D&D are actually good directors. That throne scene was top class.
based
>Season 8 of GOT is everything that ASOIAF stand against, its cliche. And even looking at all the end plot points; they are just creatively bankrupt, unexciting, and boring. There is no imagination in this season.
You do know that this is GRRMs ending right? the big plot points will be exactly the same in the books
>it was poorly executed but how was it generic and predictable lmao
It was predicatble and generic because they made Daenerys just a villain and a totally evil bad guy. From that point on, her death was obvious as a Disney villain's death and everyone else was a squeaky clean good guy.
Game of Thrones had a fucking Disney ending after all of that. Just a really poorly written Disney ending.
Disney even does villain heel turns or bad guy reveals better, even now. Their bad guys are more complex with more depth than the cartoon over the top EVIL they quickly turned Dany into. Dany we can argue was evil and a villain from the beginning but there were reasons behind that evil and villainy, in the end she wasn't sympathetic at all, so her being quickly killed (and no one lingering on it) was as happy, sugarcoated, and as bland a fantasy show end as you can possibly ask for. Generic happy sappy fantasy ending.
leave this board
Jon snow Literally started a war to reclaim winterfell and then had Sansa feed Ramsay to the hounds.
I guess GRRM is shit then, his whole point was to subvert tropes but he just simply went for those very same tropes he chose to subvert. Power corrupts, book nerds should rule and lovers killing each other.
This. The show was bad since season 2 and just got worse with each season
ADWD is the most rewarding to read again because fat man littered it with foreshadowings, prophecies and open-ended interpretations. It's probably my favorite in the series.
I've seen it repeated a billion times by now that even people who saw Daenerys as THE MAIN VILLAIN since book 1 hated this ending and thought it was horribly done. It was not a well written or consistent villain arc. There are a thousand ideas of how it could have worked really well. They didn't use any of those ideas. Again for people who saw Dany as a pure monster worse than Cersei, Joffrey, or Ramsay Sue from the very beginning even. The writing is just bad. It could have been a lot of fun and if you just enjoy it Evil Dany is fun, black leather dragon women couldn't not be fun, but they botched what could have been.
Since most people had a problem with the execution and not the plot points, it could be very well executed by GRRM and everyone will love it. One thing though, spoiler alert, GRRM is a pretty shitty writer a lot. I would not be surprised if the books aren't good either.
>Rightful heir to throne
>Family wiped out and on the run from assassins her whole life
>Has correct outlook on the whole situation
>Self delusional fantasies
>his whole point was to subvert tropes
No it wasn't. The show exists as shock factor. GRRM does huge amount of build-up to his story twists and turns. He doesn't write just to fool the readers.
What's the opposite of attack helicopter?
Yes it was really that bad but it had been really that bad for like four seasons so anyone who was surprised by it is a faggot anyway.
What's right about it?
It was hardly a war and not at all a conflict that Jon started. On top of that Jon offered to resolve the conflict with a duel.
It's not a villain arc. You don't have to be a bad person to do bad things.
Is any of that supposed to be enough justification for starting a war?
Peace submarine
This but a month
It was so bad it actually shocked normies out of their complacent stupor and made them for the first time in year take realistic stock of how bad D&D have written the show. A lot of them still erroneously believe the last few seasons were good, but now that the hypnotic spell is broken they will gradually realize it's been shit for years.
homophobic faggot detected
It was same as S5 and S7 and half of S6, but people didn't whine back then. "lmao there are dragons, why you care?" was the answer, all because Jon, Daenerys and Tyrion were not the characters butchered and Arya was butchered, but in a powergirl fashion that catered to idiots.
imagine thinking fuhrer!dany going out purging the degenerate nobility in fire and blood before setting fire to the shitskin continent of essos wouldn't be PURE KINO
It was bad in the sense that it was incredibly rushed, it needed at least one more full-sized season
