Spoilers [SPOILERS] how could cersie not face any consequence after blowing up the Sept in a society full of zealots? Spoiler

0 Upvotes

Was it just bad writing or there was literally no one left to sort of persecute cersie for this? Biggest Rival house tyrell was erased along with her own uncle and cousin Lannisters so it's the worst kind of crime even for a society like that but hey let's crown her the queen with absolute no merit other then mother of a bastard King after he jumped from the window.

Spoilers [SPOILERS] does it make sense for Arya to be the one killing night king? Spoiler

0 Upvotes

If it was supposed to be the prince who was promised? Aka jon or Dany?

Like yes they were both instrumental in defeating the night king but why did it have to be Arya to stab him?

Jon was the one who fought them repeatedly, united wildling and men in other words raised the army against them, hell even Dany had a better story, like losing her dragon and ser jorah, even she was also reasonable but Arya? Out of all people?

No offense I love the character and am glad she put an end to it but seriously what were the writer thinking?!

Also Melisandre knew it would be Arya who'd do it right so why didnt she focus on her instead of stanning stannis and then reviving Jon to ultimately unite him with dany?!

Spoilers [SPOILERS] Which character in the game of thrones got off easy? Spoiler

Saw the post earlier about which death felt the saddest so it made me wonder what do y'all think about the most underwhelming death in the show. Like this guy should've died harder.

Imo it's little finger. That character had zero redemption so a slit in the throat in front of northerners didn't hit hard enough.

Whats yours?

Here are my favorite 5 among many great ones:

  1. ⁠“You’re going to die tomorrow, Lord Bolton. Sleep well” Sansa Stark

  2. ⁠“Tell Cersei. I want her to know it was me” Olenna Tyrell

  3. ⁠"Leave one wolf alive and the sheep are never safe. When people ask you what happened here, tell them the North remembers. Tell them winter came for House Frey." Arya Stark

  4. ⁠“What? Now? Today? You're not going anywhere to die today. You're not going to die for quite a while." Cersei Lannister to Septa Unella

  5. ⁠“No, of that(poisoning Joffrey Baratheon) I'm innocent. I'm guilty of a far more monstrous crime. I'm guilty of being a dwarf.” Tyrion Lannister

Spoilers [SPOILERS] Curious who your favorite character is. Mine's Tormund, easily. Jaime almost got there too, until the final season (and honestly a chunk of season 7) undid it

Post image
16 Upvotes

After asking you all about your most hated character during my rewatch, felt like it was only fair to flip it and ask about the most loved too.

Tormund's an easy pick for me, funny, warm, and he never has to carry the kind of moral weight half the cast does.

Jaime's the more complicated one. His arc from pure monster to someone who actually confronts his own weakness and limits is some of the best character writing the show ever did, right up until the last season (and a good part of season 7) throws most of that away.

Who's your favorite, and has anyone else had a character's arc get undone for them the way Jaime's did for me?

Something about a rewatch hits differently. First time through, I was too caught up in the big moments to really sit with how quietly awful Littlefinger is in almost every scene, this time around it's impossible to miss and it's driving me a little insane.

Curious what your most hated character is (doesn't have to be from my little lineup here), and whether a rewatch ever flipped your opinion on someone, for better or worse.

Spoilers [SPOILERS] What was Brienne's plan? Spoiler

3 Upvotes

I've been rewatching the entirety of Game of Thrones and in Season 5 Episode 10 Brienne waits for Sansa to light the candle on the highest window of the tower but leaves her post just before Sansa manages to light her candle. My question is, even if Brienne had stayed 10 seconds more and saw the candle, how was she planning on rescuing Sansa? It's not like she can waltz into Winterfell and "kidnap" her.

No Spoilers [NO SPOILERS] I loved GOT but one thing always bothered me about the King's landing burning-and the fix was already in the show

0 Upvotes

I am not someone who hated the Game of Thrones ending. I thought it was ambitious and I respected what it was trying to do.

But the burning of King's Landing never sat straight with me. Not because Daenerys went mad—that was always possible and honestly well foreshadowed. What bothered me was the trigger.

She hears the bells and snaps. That is it. For a character with that much depth, that much loss, and that much built-up rage, the moment felt strangely empty. Like the writers needed her to break and reverse-engineered a reason.

Here is what I kept thinking while watching: Missandei was already dead. Executed on the walls of King's Landing by Cersei. Her last word was Dracarys—telling Daenerys to burn it all. That was a powerful moment. But then the show just... moved on from it.

What if it did not?

What if when the bells of King's Landing rang for surrender—Missandei's decapitated head was hanging from that exact bell?

Cersei sending one final message: This is what your mercy gets you. This is what these people think of your liberation.

And the crowds beneath celebrating. Ordinary people. Not soldiers. Just people cheering under her best friend's head.

Now the bell rings.

Daenerys does not just hear surrender. She sees her closest friend's head moving with every single ring. She sees the people she crossed the world to liberate celebrating that image beneath it.

The bell meant mercy. Now it is permanently poisoned.

That is not a snap. That is a woman completely breaking in a way the audience feels in real time alongside her.

  • The original version asked us to accept her madness intellectually.
  • This version makes you feel it in your stomach.

And crucially—she is still wrong to burn them. But now there is horrible complexity to it. The audience understands the logic of her broken mind even while knowing it is wrong.

That is the difference between a villain and a tragic figure.

Everything needed for this scene already existed in the show. Missandei was already dead. The bells were already there. One image was all it needed.

What do you think—would this have changed how you felt about that scene?
