Is there any chance we get a satisfying ending to GoT?

I think so

Dany and Jon will team up to beat the WWs and probably marry.

Jamie will end up killing Cersie and probably sacrificing himself in the end to save someone thus fully redeeming himself from the first episode.

Arya and the Hound will team up again to take down Zombie Mountain.

Everybody is getting closer together, so I'm not sure what story you think is not going to get wrapped up?

A lot of characters are going to die though, that much is right.

I think I remember GRRM saying he thinks the great majority of the readers will like the ending (I looked for the exact quote, but I can't find it). I think the show ending will be far closer to the book ending (at least, the ending as communicated to Dave and Dan) than a lot of people think.

I'm optimistic. However, I'm very confident in saying that there will be a relatively small portion of book readers who hate it no matter what.

There are SO many important storylines that aren't complete and only like a dozen episodes. I don't see how they're going to satisfyingly wrap them all up without it feeling incredibly rushed or just killing off a bunch of people.

To be fair, they decided on 73 episodes for a reason. If they thought they had 80 episodes worth of story, they probably would have asked for 20 more after last season.

The show ending is the only ending we are going to get.

To me it seems like they've already taken a much more straightforward, less involved approach. That's why I think questions about things like why Dragonstone was totally abandoned, why Sam had to rediscover what Stannis already told him, etc. are probably not gonna be addressed. Heck, they may not even address who is gonna get the Dreadfort.

These are not necessarily bad things. For a TV show, I guess they can only get into so many intricacies. I think for those we will have to wait and hope the books eventually come out.

I wouldn't like it, but it wouldn't surprise me. Bran's fingerprints are all over the history of Westeros.

That was the idea behind the theory.

Bran gains the ability to "fly" throughout time and tries to stop the Night's King.

He becomes Bran the builder and fails, so he builds the wall.

He tries to whisper into the Aeyrs ears to kill the WW with wild fire but fails and instead goes mad.

(First two I can go along with but he loses me here)

Using the sequence where the children of the forest has one of the first men tied down and stabs him with dragonglass to become the Night's King. The video author correlates that with the positioning of Bran at the same time in the Tree.

Also the God's Eye plays a huge role in the Night's King power as the spiral hieroglyphic represents it.

Edit: This ending goes will with GRMM shitty ending writing style. Jon will have to kill Bran to save all.

This would be the lamest ending to one of the best shows ever.

Prepare yourself

Define "satisfying".

I think we will get massive dragon-on-zombie war between Westeros and the White Walkers but a massive amount of people including main characters die and Westeros becomes a shadow of what it was to start the series after vanquishing the zombies.


Almost all of the great houses have been destroyed or have no heirs left so I wouldn't be surprised if someone such as Littlefinger ends up on top after Dany and/or Jon die.
