InArt Daenerys

I think the likeness is totally there in that last shot, but I agree she looks way too sad and the hair doesn't work at all.

 

[fiveainone]

Her body (arms) are way too skinny..

 

[TheBatman]

Just finished watching all 8 seasons.

I hope we get Jon Snow too.

For sure I will PO this once its out.

 

[Wor-Gar]

How do you feel it held up?

I watched the whole thing again back a year or so ago, and fully enjoyed it honesty, even the faulty 8th season.

 

[TheBatman]

For all the hate S08 got, I didnt think it was that bad. Its rushed for sure. They could have extended to 2-3 more seasons to fully flesh it out but we got what we got!

 

[hoodonit00]

My take on it and forgive my forgetting some of the details. We all expected Jon to be king of Westeros wasn’t it? We know that didn’t happen. But I believe he became king of the wildings didn’t he? I believe that was their names.

 

[TheBatman]

It was a game of thrones...I personally didnt set any expectation as to who was going to sit on the Iron Throne. Sure, I was rooting for some of the characters to take it, but I definitely didnt set any expectations. I was definitely taken for a ride though. That was nuts!

I think the long night shouldve been an entire season of hell for the characters, maybe a little less dark too.

Why milk it? That seems to be the biggest problem with series -- milking. And yet here you are asking for it.

One long night is fine. In the end, no matter how many "attacks" you stage, it would all get down to one fight. And it did.

🛎 "Shame" 🛎


Seriously so many great episodes what with the twists,mindfcks,pure evil and of course nakedness.
Show was a genius,S8 was all over the shop,but I still liked it for what it was.

I never had any intentions of watching this show until I started seeing a girl who insisted I watch it.
I probs should have married her as she was right,it's a great show.

What do you mean? The best part of the show in its earlier seasons was its slow burn, it took its time. The actual problem was the complete opposite, they rushed and half assed everything to get it out the door and we ended up with a garbage finale that ruins every single character in the show.

It doesn't have to be a season, but I would've liked to see them lose Winterfell, have to retreat, maybe go to King's Landing and let the white walkers follow them to its doorstep. End it with an epic battle with all of the best warriors in the show doing their best to keep the Night King down for Jon to end it all. The Long Night was what the show had been building toward since literally the first minute of its first episode and it was just extremely underwhelming.

Agreed. Game of Thrones worked early on because it felt fleshed out. We got to know the characters and understand the world, and that made the big moments mean more. If we didn't spend enough time with Cersei to hate her as much as we did, would her walk of shame have felt so satisfying? Plenty of examples of this.

I never had a problem with seasons 1-6. Seasons 1-4, and the tail end of season 6, are some of the best produced episodes of television I've ever seen. I've grown more favorable of season 7 when I rewatched earlier this year. Even with the plot armor starting to take hold for the first time in the show. Season 8, I still can't stand, with exception to the second episode, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

My biggest problem with The Long Night was that we spent 7 seasons preparing for the threat of the Night King, a threat that has carried over even into House of the Dragon, and it was all done and resolved in 90 minutes. They should have spent several more episodes with the White Walkers. Maybe some skirmishes, losing some more villages near Winterfell, anything to drive in the sense of hopelessness. Not destroying the Dothraki in 8 seconds just because. They should have fleshed that out.

Then season 9 could have wrapped it up with King's Landing, even if they could have pushed it further. I would have been ok with a rushed ending if it was just more fleshed out. They did way too much in those last six episodes.

They already had all the best warriors at Winterfell. There was nobody left...

I get your point, of course. I don't consider the first few season "stretched out" though. They were well thought out and given the reality of the world, there was no 'time-travel' or hyper-speed horses available. When you suggested 'stretching it out', I guess I had a knee-jerk reaction to the idea based on so many shows (and movies) feeling long in the tooth.

That all said... you could have multiple attacks by the Night King -- Winterfell falls, then King's Landing, etc -- but in the end, you're going to end up with "one big fight" as the finale, which is what they did. Just really dark.

The Mountain should have been there. Or whatever name they called him after he turned into a monster.

He ain't gonna do sht unless Cersei says so and given she didnt wanna be a part of the fight...

 

[hoodonit00]

One of my bigger disappointments with the ending was Jaime Lannisters changing story arc. He went from a character I was starting to like back to the SOB he was at the beginning.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Cersei and Jaime were my two biggest disappointments in the show's wrap-up of their storylines.


Jaime should have killed Cersei... but of course once the writers decided to have Jon kill Daenerys, they couldn't do the same bit for the Lannisters, so instead they just got shortchanged.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Benioff and Weiss completely destroyed their own work doing that to Jaime.

 

[TheBatman]

Benioff and Weiss completely destroyed the IP, lol.

I'm glad to see they're not getting much contracts out from producers, except for Netflix.
I guess we will see how that plays out for them.
