Why wouldn't Cersi just order the archers to open fire on a dragon less Dany and her puny escort , she could have ended the war right there. Not sure why they even thought there was a snowballs chance in hell that Cersi was just gonna give up after they just downed her dragon and wiped out a bunch of her already depleted and extremely worn out troops . Just such lazy writing . Oh and just lol at all the theorys about there being more to Bran or that he was the real night king . Nope just nothing , he sure likes his new wheelchair though
How does a fleet "sneak up" when you have dragons well over a hundred feet in the air?? This show has absolutely no creativity once it lost its source material
The way that has worked in history, when you walk up on the castle, you stop your army just outside of bow range. They don't have Marine Corps sniper rifles. Even the best reflex longbow doesn't have that kind of range.
They had a bunch of Scorpions on that wall and Euron just took out a dragon and a couple of ships from what looked like a greater range. Drogon and the unsullied might have been outside the range of archers, but it didn't look like they were out of range of the scorpions.
Random baseless prediction, they're setting up Sansa to rule the 7 kingdoms. Somehow Jon Snow gets ****ed over by Dany/Varys/Tyrion and Sansa picks up the pieces.
Geezus people just love picking this show apart more than they do watching it. “No way they would have been ambushed!!” Is the epitome of b****y nit picky overkill. Especially when a lot of these same show watchers still watch all 25 spin off Walking Dead shows and their aftershows with that annoying douche.
I feel like the longer something goes on, the more hype it gets, the less of a chance it has to satisfy people. I will add as someone that read the books...before the show released that is...I think people unfairly compare the two. A show or movie will never have the depth of a book. It could, but it would go on forever.
The endgame here to me really seems to draw from Luke’s final confrontation with Vader in Empire. (Which of course draws from other great stories, etc etc) With multiple characters of course. Jaime in particular, and of course Dany understanding he cannot defeat the enemy without choosing at least a moment of darkness. Also bringing Dany back to a point of being essentially alone with nobody but her dragon is really interesting to me. She’s always been the most powerful when she does things her way and the show has shown too her fire and blood moments. She came into this story with her own brother selling her off to be raped. She’s always been alone and the dream of being a beloved queen with family and children isn’t her destiny. She has to face who she really is. A lot of criticism now with the turn towards the ending but I just can’t not be a bit fascinated with the human drama and how true to who we are as people the story really is capturing at an appropriate moment in time but really it’s how we’ve been all along. Sansa has that great line about looking truth in the face. That’s the most noble thing you can really do in the end. Life, love, war, politics, religion... the truth isn’t black and white.
It's nice to see how other people are realizing how stupid the show has become. Have said it for years, the show runners don't make this a great show, it was always GRRM.
