Thank you all who've read any of my thoughts and left any comments. The more interesting stuff is toward the bottom. I wrote these thoughts as I watched, when I had a thought worth writing I would jot it down in my notes and now I'm copying and pasting them here with a bit of tune-up of course.
Season 8
I wish we'd gotten to see more of Arya using her faces and more of bran doing three eyed raven stuff
Grey worm is going to die. Characters don't have heart felt moments where they make a promise to a loved one and then live to fulfill it.
I would've loved to see Gren at winterfell fighting the dead Are the gods real? The Lord of light and many faces seem to be real but what about the rest?
I would've liked to see more of the Dothraki preparing although they didn't change much, just putnoon warmer clothes
The clothing that the unsullied wear would not keep them warm, if GOT winter is anything like ours they'd be freezing
I noticed no one in the north wears anything to keep their ears or nose warm, a simple hood is the most we've gotten
I wonder if being a Targaryen is the reason Jon gets along with the dragon or if tits just because he's a gentle man
How does the night king have so many men that look the same and how do some of them have hair and why doesn't the night king have hair?
I hope the night king can speak, that'll make things a lot more interesting Ghost was alive this whole time? I don't think he made more than three appearances since season 5
The dothraki having their weapons lit up like that was awesome, one of my favorite scenes and then seeing their light charge was equally as cool
I hope ghost doesn't die, if he does it should be by Jon's side
How did the red woman survive and is she with the army of the dead? She's very mysterious
Ed just died for Sam. I liked Ed and I had hoped to see him live
They can't win this. The dead gave just gotten over the wall and there are countless more coming
It's a shame Cersi's troops aren't at winterfell, I'd like to see the mountain fighting
Holy shit episode 3 was crazy, I thought our favorite characters would die, I didn't write too many thoughts during the end of the episode because I completely forgot about it. Arya getting the killing blow was cool but I think it should've been Jon
Cersi can easily win now. There is 1 dragon and over half of the northern army was killed, I hope Arya can take her faces and assassinate her
Grey worm didn't die which is a pleasant surprise
Tyrion trying to reason with Cersi is pointless, she is a monster and she'd kill everyone before she steps down as queen
I have a feeling grey worm will either kill the mountain or be killed by him
The thing Missandei said before she died, I thought that was the word that made the dragon breath fire and if it is why didn't drogon do it? That or she was telling them to burn the city
Many innocent people are going to die and Cersi sadly won't suffer for it
I've lost more and more faith in Daenerys as the shows progressed and I hope she can make a comeback but I think Jon is being set up to take her down in a heart breaking way
Varys is a smart man so I believe putting his rings in the cup and burning the paper was a message for his little birds. I'm not too sure about the paper being burnt as I think it could've been to throw them off but I definitely believe the rings are significant
Daenerys killing the innocent was the turning point for me, she's killing as many people as she can.
The soldiers are killing everyone, why? Daenerys just turned the people against her and set up Jon to take the throne perfectly
Cersi deserved a much worse death, rarely do I think anyone deserves to suffer but she deserves the torture theon received and Jamie died with her. He didn't need to die but his love for her killed him
2 of my guesses for who will die were right and four of my theories for how people will die were pretty close if not dead on, I guessed that Cersi and oberyns wife would die I just didn't know how or when and the close to dead on guesses were Theon will either be killed because of his betrayal or he'll die because he was trying to redeem himself. Jorah will either disappear or die for Daenerys. Little finger will die because Jon or sansa kill him or he'll die trying to prove his loyalty. Jamie will die for Cersi or with her.
If Jon and grey worm fought who would win? They're both excellent fighters and I'd love to see the fight although I'd probably be upset about how it ends
Why did Daenerys completely destroyed King's landing? It feels out of character for her, yes she changed but she became a tyrant pretty quick
Tyrion is going to partly blame himself for Jamie's death
Arya and Jon approaching the stairs, through the crowd of people is resembling neds death. Arya is stuck in the crowd and her family member is up in front of everyone preparing to die, Jon's still walking up the steps as I type this so this is nothing more than speculation
Maybe it isn't possible to be a ruler or to overthrow one without killing innocent people but it's definitely possible to do as little damage as possible
Jon still supports Daenerys but he's conflicted so here's hoping he makes the right choice
Even if Jon kills Dany her army wouldn't follow him, they'd kill him.
I thought varys rings were a sign to his birds to send out his message about Jon's true name because he knew he'd die so why take off your jewelry when it doesn't make a difference?
I wasn't too upset earlier but the more this finale episode goes on the more I'm irritated. Daenerys knows that being the queen of nothing doesn't matter, she's sitting on the throne but the people won't accept her. She's the ruler of ashes and now she's either manipulating Jon or she's gone crazy
Why are people so stubborn and ignorant in this show, I don't have names or references to the moments I'm talking about because I didn't jot then down when they happened as I thought they were isolated events but they're not. The only people I can really say for sure are ignorant and stubborn are Stannis, Cersi, and Dany. Obviously if they weren't ignorant and were reasonable there'd be less issues and we'd have better endings with less drama but it's still annoying
Melting the throne was an amazing thing to do, although the fact that drogon knew it was the right thing to do is strange since it's not been alive long enough to fully understand it's evilness. I do like it though, the throne has caused countless and pointless death and misery
What will the unsullied and Dothraki do now that Dany is not only dead but her body is also missing?
This small circle of people looks like it could be an interesting government
Robin had a much smaller role then I expected.
I think I should've time stamped these thoughts, they're chronological but if you aren't watching the show with me and you haven't seen it since it ended you probably won't get too much of what I'm thinking
I wonder if there has been a three eyed raven as king before bran. I also think he'll be the best king there ever was only rivaled by the potential of Jon.
The north being independent should be how the rest of the houses operate. Only making alliances when they need to.
What will happen to the body of Dany?
Jon is really getting a shitty deal. He potentially saved everyone and now he's suffering for it. He deserves better and he won't get it, a sad truth. He's suffered a lot, killing the woman he loves, having the woman he loved killed in front of him, saving countless people and receiving no thanks
What would have happened to the free folk had Dany not been killed? Would she have killed them to let them be?
Why is the nights watch still around and who do they serve also who is the lord Commander since Ed died
If bran knew that he'd be king, and around a million people would die why didn't he save anything? I can only assume this is the best possible outcome for the future of the world and it's people
Where will bran rule?
Will kings landing be rebuilt?
Arya is headed west of westros and it hadn't occurred to me that those people have no idea of the shit that just went down for the past few years, they had no idea the world could've ended, and we have no idea what they were going through
I think this series could've gotten a star wars treatment. Elaboration and exploration upon the world and people of it. I'd love to see how bran does as king and how the world turns out after he's dead.
How long was the time skip? Long enough to rebuild kings landing or build a similar establishment
Tyrion has been the hand to three rulers, Joffery, Daenerys, and now Bran.
Why/how is Bron still alive? I expected Tyrion to kill him after threatening him and his brother
The bickering between the kings table I guess you'd call it was definitely amusing
All of neds children are in a position of power. Jon looks to be more commander again, Sansa is the Queen of the north, Bran is the king, and Arya has her own ship. I imagine ned would be proud of his children.
It is currently 12:00 am and I've justed finished the show. For me it was an 8/10, 1 point off for the vast mystery that was left and another for the out of character actions of Daenerys. I loved the show and greatly enjoyed each episode, it's put me on to Kit Harington and Sophie Turner. (I just found out that Sophie's debut in acting was game of thrones and holy shit is she good, if that's the beginning of her career I'll enjoy finding out where else it goes)
People still don't know that Tyrion didn't kill Joffery?
Who are the best fighters in GOT skill wise? This is a discussion I'd like to have with you guys. I say the candidates are Arya, Brienne, Jon, Oberyn, Bron, jaqen h'ghar and maybe grey worm. I think Arya is the best (rivaled by Jaqen) but if she were to fight the mountain at the end of the series I don't believe she'd win, Brienne would have the best chance although I imagine she would also lose but that doesn't make the mountain the most skilled, he's a freak of science & maybe magic and he doesn't rely on his skill whatsoever. The most dangerous man in GOT was the night king, the most dangerous fighter was the mountain, and my favorite was Jon.
Now to talk about my favorite characters but first the Honorable mentions: Sansa, Missandei, Rob stark, podrick, Brienne, the hound, Grendy, and Shireen.
-
Jon snow, he reminds me of captain America. He's an honorable man doing what he think is best for the peoples saftey. He trusted the free folk and helped them unlike any lord Commander ever
-
Tyrion Lannister, he's funny, clever and has good intentions. His life has been a struggle both emotionally and physically and I sympathize with him. Hes also brave and looks good with facial hair. He's loyal to the people like varys, he knows when to do the right thing and be stayed true to himself until the end
-
Daenerys Targaryen, being the breaker of chains is a big plus for me. Also stopping the rape and murder of innocence in her army. She's a mostly good person and her ideas of what she wants the world to be is closer to today's world than any other character has shown to strive for. I wrote these character reviews/favoritism explanations before finishing season 7, now that I've finished season 8 I see that Dany is a lot worse than I expected. I wanted to remove her from the 3rd place because of what happened in episode 7 & 8 of the 8th season but I can't. She's still a favorite
-
Arya stark she's tough, independent, and her journey was impressive as well as interesting. I expected her to die several times but was pleasantly surprised. She might even be the best fighter in GOT
-
Prince Oberyn, we didn't see much of him but we know he's a mostly kind man and he's charming. He lived and died for his sister plus he hates the Lannisters and I love that. Sadly his ego got him killed otherwise he might've taken second place on my list
-
Samwell tarly, he has a good heart and I feel sorry for him. His father hates him and the rest of his family won't stand up for him. He also cured jorah of grayscale
-
Tormund, here me out with this one. I know he's a rapist(probably), murder and thief but most of the people in GOT are terrible people. I like tormund because he's funny and his relationship/respect for Jon
-
Ned stark, he wasn't around for long but the example he set has lived on thought the series, his teachings and honor are forever remembered. He was a good man, an honorable man and I'll forever enjoy his character
-
Jamie Lannister, I don't know have much reason here. He's mostly honorable and he's merciful, he saved lady Olena from what probably would've been torture. He's also loyal which is a con as much as it is a pro.
-
Gren, for the short time he was around he was an awesome character. He defended Sam, supported Jon, and gave his life for his brothers fighting a giant.
