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.. |

Remember, right after he was resurrected he just wanted to go be a hermit somewhere. Sansa had to convince him to retake Winterfell. He told Dany that he hated what he was good at, leading people into battle. As King he will have to condemn people and execute them. He will have to lead armies as there will be small scale wars to pacify the kingdoms that have gone leaderless for ages. Going beyond the wall and living relatively peaceful with the free folk is probably the best ending for him and Tyrion knows it. |

Don't make Jon an indecisive beta resigned to his fate. That last meeting with Tyrion and even his return to the Wall was just mopey and frustrating. Make that meeting one where Jon reclaims his agency after spending a couple of seasons being talked into things he 'doesn't want'. Have him say he did the right thing but recognizes the consequences and cannot stay in Kings Landing. Have him voluntary relinquish his right and head north. Rather than take the black, he voluntarily chooses to go north of the wall with Tormund. It would've been a far more graceful end to the character and would've done nothing to interfere with other story arcs. I just hate how Jon, who's been so driven by honor, wasn't allowed to write his own ending and make the honorable sacrifice by removing himself from consideration.

Also, Bran didn't want the throne either. I don't know. But the whole "Jon getting demoted to the Wall" felt really out of place. I mean, I like that he ended up north of the wall with Tormund. But it felt really off the way they did it.

I mean who liked the Red Wedding massacre of Eddard Stark losing his head? I was real upset of losing Rob Stark. The story is full of twists that weren't liked, but that is the story.

Except Jon DID NOT WANT to be king and rule the seven kingdoms. I'm not crazy about him having to be put on the Night Watch, but there may have been an insurrection with he Unsullied and Dothraki if he was made king since he killed Dany. It was simply a practical solution.
I don't think it will not be a permanent exile over time. You can make that what you want tho'.
