fuck off with that make belief army, guess the unsullied and dothraki has plot armour as well as the main characters

if she had an army this big why didn't she bring them with her when she tried to threaten Cersei into surrendering instead of having a force so tiny it was laughable

Up to almost the very end, I still thought it was 1 big trap. Lure the whole invading army into the streets of kings landing then blow the whole thing up with Wildfire killing the army in the streets. I thought that was the main reason to move the population into the Red Keep area.

Glad to see not a single "theory" accurately predicted the deaths of Jamie and Cersei would come at the hands of a bunch of boulders.

the people who have said this episode was good have defended it with the whole "but u could tell she was becoming the mad queen it was foreshadowed!!!" yes but no. hinted at: yes. but the execution of having the true madness come out in just the previous two eps was disappointing for me. imo dany hadn't yet exhibited anything close to being a mad ruler/tyrant. felt like i was told she was becoming mad rather than shown organically and thats just meh...THIS IS SOME CW WRITING D&D. Would've loved to have seen a season or something actually developing the dany is a villain arc but instead :(

Was 6 episodes for this season always the intention? Because it sure feels like it was written for 10 episodes, and then they had to cut 4 episodes of character development and justification out in order to fit it down to 6 episodes.

In the previous seasons it's like there are characters and they interact naturally and interesting shit happens because of that.

Now a bunch of dumb shit happens that has been predetermined by writers so the characters interact like robots in order to meet those ends.

well varys was trying to poison dany. at least his death wasnt in vain. he was right about dany and she's gonna have to resort to killing everyone, now that people probably have received his letters.

Loved the direction, especially Arya's POV: 9/11 visuals were strong. Also unlike most people I like the magic horse. I've heard a lot of anecdotes of seemingly weird/ethereal shit like this appearing in the midst of actual combat, so I don't share the same complaints I've seen in that regard. I also really liked the symbolism in that it looked just like Dany's silver horse she received as a wedding gift, but was now covered in blood.

I also thought Cleganebowl was good, particularly the pre-game interaction between Arya and Sandor.

All in all I loved the visuals, direction, and performances all-round.

The writing, however, was trash. They massacred Jaime's arc, FUCK SHOW EURON, Dany's descent into madness was completely unbelievable because it simply hasn't had enough time to develop, Jon is now just a fucking damp squib, Tyrion is a bitch, and Varys is apparently a retard who has his own spies come and knock on his door and meet him in his own chambers? Also FUCK SHOW EURON.

Overall if I had to be objective I'd give it a 7/10. 9 for visuals, 9 for direction, 10 for performances (particularly Maisie), 10 for music, but I'm legit subtracting points for the writing.

In context though, it wasn't 7/10. In the context of this being the culmination of the story arcs of so many brilliant characters over so many seasons, it was legit hot fucking trash 0/10 REEEEEEEEEEE.

At least this car crash has a chance of motivating George RR Martin to actually finish the books and give his story an ending it deserves.

Now that I’m thinking more about it, I’m beginning to like Varys death more and more. He forced dany’s hand. Either she can defer to Jon, he has a stronger claim and is probably a better ruler, what Varys wants or she can kill him, proving to everyone that she’s batshit crazy and that people should rally to Jon’s side, what Varys wants. Either way it leads one step closer for Jon to sit on the throne. Also in the 4th and 5th episode, Varys keeps repeating the same lines about his purpose being to see to it that the rightful ruler sits on the iron throne. In this episode he mentions that he’s served more kings and queen than anyone alive, as if to imply each being more unfit than the next. Now that Varys is dead, it’s as if he can rest easy now because he believes one way or the other Jon will end up ruling.
