Definitely true for Tyrion.
Sansa at least gave us the satisfaction of seeing right through Dany's BS this season.

Sansa at least gave us the satisfaction of seeing right through Dany's BS this season.
Not to mention all the times throughout the season and the last where he could have told characters what was actually going on and saved a lot of trouble (littlefinger in winterfell, Cersei lying about pledging her support etc.) but if he dies it'll be some tragedy? Please.
OP

I think she knew her time was up or the Lord of Light was done with her.
She couldn't do the fire spell without repeating it like 10x and her jewel (which in the books always glares bright) was extinguished
Pretty easily though? It certainly wasn't easy for the living.
He did things the way he usually would, but his reasons for it were not really there. Like what advantage does he gain by playing Arya against Sansa? If he were to plot against anyone it would be John since his goal is the Iron Throne.
Really don't mind him getting taken out like a bitch, though.
There was no way Jon could have saved Rickon.
There was no way Jon could have fought the ice dragon.
It was a Jon thing to do.
The two dragons got caught in a blizzard and were distracted. Jon kept attempting to do things but he just was playing checkers while Bran and the NK were playing 4D chess. Technically, every second he spent distracting the NK was him doing something.
- The babies were used to make new White Walkers.
- The Night King was a dude the Children of the Forest turned into a weapon to fight against men.
When the previous Long Night lasted for years and yours only lasts for maybe 20 hours ... yeah you're a bit of a bust.
Correct. The great "Arya couldn't have been that dumb" stabbing debacle from years past should have taught me better.
Fair enough. But I wouldn't dismiss plot hole as it should be objective as opposed to the other two.
Brah she trained with weapons, poisons and learned face magic. On top of that, winning a fight in her favor, according to you, is being stabbed in the stomach and worn down by being chased.
Very nice! And some of their t-shirts: "What is drunk may never die"
I can understand folks having issues with how Arya's explicit assassin training with the no ones went, but Arya's been being trained as a stealthy warrior from day one and that has been a clear and concise progression from the moment it began in King's Landing. Basically they fumbled at the finals, but I'm willing to look it over.
"Sam is awesome because he did stuff in the past," isn't a good reason for him to have survived when literally thousands of other more capable soldiers couldn't. You're kind of proving their point right, that fan favorite characters are being kept alive simply because they're fan favorites.
This TV show episode out epic'ed Avengers Endgame which I saw last night.
They spared no expense.
How organic and overflowing the undead army behaved was a sight to behold.

The read I got was that Littlefinger finally drank a little too much of his own juice and got too confident in his ability to talk himself in and out of situations. I thought he was trying to place Arya and Sansa against each other because he was trying to take over more of the North by way of staying in Sansa's ear.
Even the books imply it's misleading. But they wasted so much time on it, I'm sure they will explain how it came true by episode 6
Yep. He did a ton of work. Well, his dragon did. And as you said, delaying the NK and helping slay some wights the old fashioned way.
Ultimately he did what he could just like everyone else, which is to say not very much on his own. The reality is he isn't a superhero and the episode did a great job of reminding everyone of that. Hordes > any individual character. He was lucky to have survived, as was everyone else that made it.
Everyone that made it *barely* made it, and RIP to the other 85% of the standing army. I'm very curious to see how many Dothraki and Unsullied remain.
Yes, we have. You're just late.
Yeah I know. If you get a chance I would 100% go through there library. The reaction sto some of the biggest moments of the last 3 seasons are priceless.
The Dany and Jon love scene alone is worth its weight in gold lol
"-how did you sneak up on me?"
Holy shit that was perfect. I was expecting winterfell to burn and everyone to die and this happens.
Callbacks, epic action, everything.
Did Theon needed to die to buy the time for Arya or did he did he for nothing because of the buff given by Bran's words?
That was fuckin great, I'm rewatching this before going to sleep.
So humans vs humans and some lird of light stuff in the background, I can buy that :)

I don't understand how one can blame Jon for leaving Sam behind.
The stakes were too high, Jon had to reach Bran before the Night King.
Sam would understand this.

They're dead. It's over.
Babies? It's what the NK used to create WWs.
Who was the NK and purprose? He was a First Man the Children of the Forest changed to use as a weapon in their war with the First Men who turned on all living things instead.
There's nothing more than that.
Note to self:
If ever surrounded by zombies lay down on top bodies and whimper or put back to wall and fight them off for maximum survival time.

Edd got screwed. The guy who was just trying to do his duty to the Nights Watch and constantly told everyone to burn his body became a walker anyway in the ennd just because Sam's dumb ass decided to fight instead of stay in the crypts where he belonged.
Hell if he had stayed there then alot more people might have lived.
The show hasn't been known for this since season 4.
If I was paralyzed, I would spend all day warging into ravens. Hell, I wish I could that now! It's way better than watching everyone get slaughtered.
Good thing they can talk it out afterwards and sort out any potential issues that Jon leaving Sam behind might have caused.
Would hate for a character to have an interesting regret that affects their character going forward.
I was referring to big name characters like the Starks. If you follow back the replies, you'll see that is what was being discussed.
Cersei is an amazing character. But she is also a piece of shit human being that deserves to be shoved off the nearest cliff with a swift kick to the ass.
Other examples of this are Joffery, Ramsey, and Tywin. All great characters. All of them can suck my ass.
Just gonna say it. Prophecies are dumb. I'm kinda glad that that stuff is out of the way, or seems to be at least.
lol, my thoughts too.
The shot of the WWs + NK coming for Bran is nice, the Dothraki thing was cool, but the rest of it. Ehhhhhhhh.
Meh. You don't introduce prophecies and develop them in great lore detail only to do absolutely nothing with them...
I could see this all ending with the 'good' has been done with everyone at Winterfell valiantly saving humanity and then it all gets dragged into shitty greed when they fight for the Iron Throne and end up destroying each other anyway, after defeating the great undead army. I would be surprised if it's different than this.
