Holy fuck! King's Landing is actually completely gone. It's literally just ruins now.
It didn't seem like that much damage was done last episode but I guess the fire spread tremendously.
Daenerys gonna rule from Dragonstone then or as Queen of the Ashes?
What amplifies his stupidity is that he knows what happened to Ned due to being honourable to a fault yet he doubles down on it rather than learning that it's easier to change things when your head is still on your shoulders.Calling a character stupid is imo the worst, laziest piece of criticism because 9 times out of 10 when people say this character is stupid, they're projecting their own hindsight + third-person omniscience onto a character who would naturally have neither. But having said that, Jon is just that stupid. He's honorable to the point of idiocy. He shouldn't have told Sansa, he shouldn't have told Dany in the first place, he shouldn't have told Cersei he pledged himself to Dany, and so on and so on. Jon is just a bad leader.
I feel like he probably only lived because he was staying in the north.What amplifies his stupidity is that he knows what happened to Ned due to being honourable to a fault yet he doubles down on it rather than learning that it's easier to change things when your head is still on your shoulders.
He has Ned's "muh 'onour" issues cranked to 11 mixed with Stannis' "muh dootee" stat maxed out as well. It's insane that he hasn't died a second time at this point.
They all start fighting each other again like the last time they weren't united.Hey... What are the odds that Dany does indeed 'break the wheel', get taken out, and then the 7 kingdoms are left to rule themselves independently?
What if no one sits on the throne?

That only works if they take a season that expands the gap in between defeating the Night King and Dany/Jon marching on King's Landing. The reason he leaves Brienne in the middle of the night is because if he waits any longer Cersei will be dead by the time he gets there anyway.
This was my prediction at the beginning of the year, although I had Dany destroying the throne and letting the seven kingdoms to rule themselves. Think it's safe to say that won't be happening now lol, but I could see Jon now fulfilling that role instead.Hey...

It's rather funny how that short clip with Coster-Waldau in the tweet leaves out the last few words of his answer to the question for no apparent reason. Where he is concluding with "I don't how to do this! How do you do it? And they go yeah we hear you, just try it........and then it turns out okay". Hard to understand cutting someone off mid sentence.Right. Actors clashing or having differences of opinion with their writers/directors happens all the fucking time.

I forget where, but I was reading an article somewhere yesterday that was framing some quotes from how Conleth Hill hated the last few seasons, hated that Varys was killed, etc. And then I go read the original interview and he says repeatedly he likes where it all ends up and how Varys goes out, but still felt personally bad about being killed off and wished Varys had been a bigger role in the last couple seasons though understands that he's not one of the main characters. Too many people are trying to make mountains out of molehills with their "see! the actors hate it too!!" takes just to validate their own feelings about S8, 7, etc.

They must've been grooming their 2K horses and forgot to join the battle.

Now I'm just imagining her giving her victory speech to that piddly force of Unsullied she showed up with to the meeting outside of King's Landing and laughing.
If the show was smart enough to say that some of them were holding places like Dragonstone, Highgarden, and Casterly Rock during the battle of Winterfell, and they've since met up, it would feel like less of an ass pull when more and more of them seem to show up each episode.Maybe she had a shitload of dothraki and Unsuillied posted on the other side of Winterfell during the battle that never got any camera time...
Note: this shot was in the "in the next episode" reel after episode 5.

90% chance she will say "my struggle" and/or "final solution" in High Valyrian during her victory speech.
God please no.90% chance she will say "my struggle" and/or "final solution" in High Valyrian during her victory speech.
That isn't 'breaking the wheel'. That's neatly dismantling it until a kingdom becomes strong enough to subdue the others and restablish The Iron Throne.Hey... What are the odds that Dany does indeed 'break the wheel', get taken out, and then the 7 kingdoms are left to rule themselves independently?

How in the bloody hell are there that many Unsullied left? wtf
Heard she also stocked up on Phoenix Downs.Dany put the necessary tech skills into the specialised military buildings that speed up and increase troop reinforcements.
All it takes is one bad day

To be fair about the Conleth Hill interview, while he doesn't definitely say he hates the show, the final season or his own ending (that he liked). He does mention that his character seemed to lose all his intelligence in the end and just appeared for weather reports because he seemed to know nothing anymore. It seemed to be something that disappointed him that his character didn't have much importance and meaning anymore as you also said. Hill also admits that it's rather personal and selfish thing and the nature of multi-character show. He would have also wanted a final scene with Littlefinger and to be there when he died, because he was his nemesis. But I don't know how that could be taken as throwing shade either.
having rewatched that movie recently for the first time in ages, Anakin's turn was way worse and more sudden than I remember it being. I actually think that movie is alright overall, all things considered, but that scene in particular was just an enormous jump in character development, it was like he flicked a switch.It's fitting D&D are going to do Star Wars. The heel turn that Dany goes through in this episode was about as convincing as Anakin's in ROTS.

Damn this has got to be the realest thing I've seen about the show lol
I was on board the moment Jaime pushed Bran out of the window. That's when I realised that this was going to be special show and different show.
Melisandre revived a bunch of them off screen before she died, which will be revealed in a twist next episode
Uhh... What?
She wouldn't abolish the monarchy... It's literally her entire reason for existing. She would have to get taken out, and that wouldn't be feasible unless she did something like what happened last week.
Dany was going for literally half the episode and when Arya woke up there was nothing but ashes and destroyed buildings....

Dragon riding is similar to warging.How does Dany get Drogon to attack stuff that isn't specifically a threat? I suppose Drogon can tell enemies firing at them easily, but for like the city was she just going,
"Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys! Dracarys!"
For 30 minutes straight?
100%
He seemed kinda pissed he was sidelined the last few seasons.

I really thought the white walkers reduced her army to way less then that

Dracarys is the cool one liner for the audience's benefit
It keeps getting worse the more I think about it

Is daenerys raising zombies from the dead for soldiers as the Night Queen?
Like they're connected telepathically and they know what the rider wants to do. Which makes more sense than her shouting commands and twisting some back spikes to command him to do complex flight maneuvers.What do you mean? So she's in a trance while riding, or do you mean her and Drogon are somehow connected so if she looks at something to strike Drogon also senses it and hits the target?
