  • Re: Game of Thrones Season 8: Now What Will We Do for Boobies?

    Maybe Drogon goes back to his birthplace and throws Dany into a fire and she walks out and hooks up with some Dothraki stud. Death isn't forever in this show.

    I like the ending. Dr. Mrs. said it well: we are living through a hellishly dark timeline so a dumb TV show that ends hopefully is just fine escapism.

    Who was the silly guy who started in on his king application before Sansa cut him off?

    Was Gendry there representin' for House Borathion? I didn't see him.

    Being an inveterate loather of Starks (they get everybody else killed; they live) I'm satisfied they each get what they "deserve" in different paradoxical ways.

    I disagree with the idea that Jon is "finally freed of his sense of duty." Jon literally peaced out on every duty he had in the course of the show. He's the embodiment of irresponsibility, not because he is a bad man (he's anything but) but because he is a moral weakling. Next time just f-ck the pretty blonde and then shiv her in bed, Jon. Save a million lives.

      Yes, Gendry was there. I saw him. Not sure who the fool was that was told to shut up. And yes, Drogon did do that.

          Interesting. Ultimately I liked them better than you did. I wanted better.

            Are we supposed to think Drogon intentionally melted the throne or was he just scattershot unhappy? If we're gonna say Drogon is capable of nuanced socio-political thought I'm going to laugh out loud. I didn't assume he was making any judgement of Jon by not frying him. I figured he couldn't because (a) he's a Targyreon and thus protected, and/or (b) he can't fricassee anybody without the magic order.

              Yes, he intentionally melted the throne. His queen can't sit on it then no one can. He couldn't because of the Targyreon thing, and because fire would have done nothing to him much like the Night King, otherwise he would have fried him. He took the body to save his queen, which he did.

                Since there is a Targyreon remaining then shouldn't Drogon be programmed to view Jon as the rightful King? Or was that Drogon specifically telling Jon, "dude, you're not up to it"?

                I'd like to see a prequel about the Valyrian Freehold. Dr. Mrs. said she thinks the one planned is much earlier, with the tree people and all that silliness. Like maybe it's the story of how the Night King comes to be.

                I'd also be up for Arya's adventures with the Native Amerisosians. It can be like Kirk with that injun broad.

                    Drogon was always too attached to Dany. Dany's life hung in the balance. He couldn't kill Jon but he could save Dany.

                        Gendry was sitting there and one of the middle people to say aye to Bran. I thought one of the best scenes of the episode was the first meeting of the new small council. That was gold. Also, how great was that visual of Dany walking out and Drogon taking off behind her. Whoever thought of that was genius.

                        I was shocked that Dany went down so early in the episode. Definitely didn't see that coming so quickly.

                        Edmure Tully was the guy that Sansa told to shut up. He was the one that was set to be married at Red Wedding to the Frey daughter.

                            Best scene in the episode for my money. Hard to find anything for comic value in that episode, which was mostly pathos, so they took their chance and ran with it. I also liked that 3 seats are vacant -- it would have been too contrived for everybody from the Wacky Adventures of the Starky Bunch to wind up as the Council. Not to mention a doom of Groupthink.

                              yep, that ending was about as good as we could have expected. just wish they had ended it with that shot of the gate to the wall coming down behind the group of wildlings, cutting straight to black, cue music, run credits.

                              The meeting of the small council was great. But the best scene was Brienne completing the history of Ser Jaime.

                              And I knew Jon was gonna shiv Dany when you could see him turn slightly as they were coupling, as he reached for his dagger.

                                The two prequel projects I've heard mentioned are the war that ousts that Mad King from the Iron Throne, or the war where the Targaryens conquer Westeros some 300 years prior. There were four total spinoffs suggested, but they've whittled it down to two. The only thing they're not saying is what those two spinoffs will be.
