What an absurd episode. Can't stand what they've done with Dany. Laughable characterization. D&D are total edgelords
Well the show did it's job, I already didn't like Cersei, now for sure I hate Daenerys.
Bring on King Jon/Bran
Bring on King Jon/Bran
worst epsiodes so far for me, just mess all round, yeah Dragon looked cool blowing up shit yeah so what, wheres the context ?
I thought this episode was better than the last, but I don't like how this story is going to end
My biggest problem this episode was actually Arya.
You can't have a character go through what Arya's gone through, seen the world as she's seen it, be reborn as a world-weary no-shits assassin...and then turn her back into a shell-shocked little girl in the space of one episode,. None of her actions these last two episodes made sense (other than curbing Gendry).
And the reformation of Dany into the Mad Queen remains infuriating. Look, Lindsey Ellis made the great point on her twitter today that the show is fucking up by suddenly trying to make the audience see what's happening on the show through 21st century morality, when what we're essentially looking at is medieval warfare. In that context, the bloodshed is completely on Cersei for not surrendering AND blatantly antagonizing Dany to completely annihilate her. If you're Dany, it's GoT and you're at war...you're pretty much left with no choice but to take the shot and completely destroy your opposition. It's fucked up, but those were the times.

Yeah, they've been telegraphing the Dany stuff for a long time, not much to be surprised about her turning evil
This. I hate Cersei so much.
Gotta say, goddamn the destruction budget was amazing. Many movies don't have so many shots that look that good and pretty much every shot of the dragon destroying stuff looked amazing.
I don't see anything wrong with how Cersei died. They made her human again for a couple minutes instead of a cartoon character.
Ummm... I don't even know what to think of that. Absolutely absolutely hated Cersei and Jamie's death... after all the evil shit they pulled they really died embracing eachother >_>? Super underwhelming and anti-climatic. And why am I supposed to feel sorry for them?
Also although I didn't want Arya to die at all, that was just weird by the end of the episode. I rather her have just died fulfilling her revenge by killing Cersei. *shrug*

Would've almost preferred Arya kill Cersei because that death was not satisfying at all. Why did they try to get me to feel bad for Cersei when she was given the option twice to never get to this point.
And wow, fuck Jaimie too. I was like this dude went from fucking his sis and pushing a kid out a window and crippling him to becoming a good guy and it felt natural. In the end he really just goes there to die with her.

Holy fuck, this has to go down in the worst final season in television history. What an ultimate rush job.
That was truly something, I can't wait for the next episode just so this show can finally end.
As one of those people I will admit I was slightly off about that lol
I'm not sure I liked the build up to this throughout the season, but that was an amazing episode. The carnage was crazy.
Serve me the biggest crow you have. Last week I firmly believed Jaime was going to King's Landing to kill Cersei.
