Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8
About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that... For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link Last edited by keg in kc; 06-21-2017 at 10:48 AM.. |

In a way, I'm back to where I was years ago - knowing what's going to happen because I read the books. |

I feel like I'm better off having read the leaks. Knowing what's happening ahead of time has let me keep my expectations in check.

They ****ed everything up by cramming it all in 6 episodes. But honestly it’s looking like they didn’t have enough shit for two more seasons anyways.
Still a damn good show....but it’s ending on a disappointing note. |

whenever you see a show have a bad ending, just remember Dexter. If it can get worse than that ending, then that's impressive.

not for HBO. Battle of winterfell was the highest rated show ever on HBO. Double the ratings of the Sopranos ending. In April HBO had the highest month ever for new subscribers.

Snow Globe ending in St Elsewhere takes the honor of shitting on its viewership

Can't get it to start on the time code. GoT bit starts about 2 minutes in.

Maybe the writers just know their limitations and know that they don't have the chops to write this out properly over a period of say 2 more seasons. As Dirty Harry said, a man's got to know his limitations...
In that light, I'm glad they are wrapping this up and not going all Walking Dead and stringing us along with absolute bullshit for 3 more seasons or something. Maybe they don't want the show to go on when the only reason people like it is because of what it once was, not what it's become, because of their lack of creativity in writing it. HBO is happy to spend money and make a bad ass battle that pretty much lasts an entire episode, so money is not the problem. These guys are just not good enough to write this out and end it well. It's baffling, and a little sad, but at least they know their limitations. That's what I'm going with anyway...

It's funny to me because I hated Episode 3 much more than Episode 4. I'm just resigned to the shitty plot at this point and ready to see it end, so I guess my level of investment has waned a bit. |

This is familiar. Sopranos was fantastic until the last half season. I have rewatched Sopranos 6-7 times, and I’ve only watched the final 1/2 season once. It was very disappointing. If the ending of GOT ends up sucking I will pretend it doesn’t even exist.
