Rewatching BB right now Quote HistoryQuoted:
Rewatching BB right now I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that's the first and only time a show's last season won the EMMY for best drama, best writing, best lead actor, best supporting actor, and best supporting actress. The only reason it didn't win best director too was True Detective S1. |

What if Vince Gilligan (or someone even in the ballpark of that level) was a huge fan of the books and was the showrunner for the entire series? Someone who didn't dumb down the show to cater to the lowest common denominator and remove HUGE S1-S4 storylines like Jaime finding out Cersei was "cheating" on him and the truth about Tyrion's first wife. Not to mention Dorne. At this point though a typical CW writer could do a better job than this Dumb and Dumber S8 shitshow.

I expect it won't matter much though. When the writing is that fuckin' horrible the directing (good or bad) is hardly even noticeable. Especially if it's the final episode of an 8 season series. |

Idea: make it so S8 is all one version of a possible future played out in Bran’s head, hire all the actors back for S9, hire some showrunners/writers that know what the hell they are doing it, and end this show in a way that doesn’t make the last season of Dexter look like the last season of Breaking Bad.

Speaking of which, how amazing would this show be if Vince Giligan was the one given control the past 2 seasons? The man made the plot of a HS teacher making meth into one the best, if not greatest, show of all time. He created that shit. Think about if he was given these characters and plots. I’ve got a chub thinking about it. |

It’s even been foreshadowed. Olenna Martell told her to be a dragon. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: So I saw this image and I rolled my eyes. Aren’t they a little close to the walls? Besides the ballistics, there are nobody on the walls. And why the fuck is the golden company outside the fucking castle? It’s going to be another terrible battle again, isn’t it? https://i.imgur.com/riVeb0T.jpg One the things about castles are their huge walls. It’s literally a defensive feature that’s built into it. But in this world walls are bad and you should fight infront of them. ETA:

Quote HistoryQuoted: They’ve done that throughout the series. They did it at the Blackwater, battle of the bastards, stannis’ attack on winterfell, and the defense of winterfell. One the things about castles are their huge walls. It’s literally a defensive feature that’s built into it. But in this world walls are bad and you should fight infront of them. 1: The defenders have the advantage so why not force the issue? Danys army is weakened, wounded, demoralized to a point (losing 1 in 2 at another battle does that) and defenders have at least parity if not a small superiority in troops. Dany could arguably heal and reinforce while KL could not. 2. Sieges are long, messy things, which is what results from sitting on a wall. If KL was cut off from supply with no hope of reestablishing supply then the choices are to force combat early on before sickness and malnutrition work against you, or sit on said wall until sickness and malnutrition rending you incapable of defense. |

Just checking in to say I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s been disappointed with this final season.
I was accused earlier on in the season of being too simple minded to appreciate what’s been written so far

There will never be another show like Breaking Bad.

Either those three movies are going to be these idiots (without the benefit of source material to adapt, which there were good at with GOT as long as they had GRRM books to milk), or those three movies will be Rian Johnson -- lord of the Last Jedi abortion and the slaughter of Luke Skywalker's character and legacy. |
