Peter Dinklage didn't hold back in a recent interview with The New York Times when it was brought up that "Game of Thrones" fans were let down by the show's finale.
"They wanted the pretty white people to ride off into the sunset together," Dinklage, who played Tyrion Lannister on the show, told the newspaper.

Isn’t that kind of what Jon and Arya do? He’s surely joking here.

We just wanted a good story, not every character jumping the shark.

Loyalty aside he should have been kinda depressed about his own character's degradation. He went from a world class wit and strategist to dead weight. Plus the obvious (to any readers) reveals about the Lannister heritage were never completed. Failures went far deeper than just one or two issues.

Understandable he is angry. The GOT universe flushed itself down the drain with that last season (really the last 2 seasons). Dinklage undoubtedly lost money when the demand for spin-offs and other content in the GOT universe ended.

It’s possible Jamie and Cersei are Aerys’ biological children, but no to Tyrion. If Tyrion had been born full sized and still killed his mother in childbirth, I think Tywin would have given Tyrion a chance to prove himself. If his mother had survived though, I still think Tywin would have hated Tyrion nearly as much as he does in the series.
Tyrion is Tywin’s son and if he could have looked past his dwarfism he would be his favored child, flaws and all. Them not being biologically related ruins their relationship, when I don’t think it does so when it comes to Jamie and Cersei. I still doubt this theory, but it is possible.

He's coming up a little short on that

But they were all white this doesn't make sense

Damn he must be trying to get a role.

Actually, I wanted to Night King to kill everyone.

Agree
The meaningful parts hit home all the harder if Tyrion is Tywin's only true son and legitimate heir. It explains Cersei's madness & love of wildfire. It makes half brothers Jamie and Tyrion bonded by killing their biological fathers. It makes the Kinslayer a tragic hero who was twice forced to kill kin to save the kingdom (if he also kills Cersei to stop her from destroying the kingdom with wildfire and madness).

no, we just wanted competent dialogue and actual consequences for stupidity like we got in the first 4 seasons

He's a great actor, but hollywood libs can't stay out of politics. STFU take your check and blow up your family Xmas with your views.

I mean, they built up a female hero with badass dragons for 7.5 seasons only to see her turn completely insane and burning civilians in about a 5 minute span of one episode. What did he think the fans wanted to see at the end? And it was a white male who ended up crowned king at the end anyway…so I’m not seeing his point

Begging for work again, are we?
F this chickenshit, he started off great but by the end he was one of the worst ""characters"" in the show. All he did was frick things up and make everything worse. He was a caricature by the end.
If anything he should be mad about how so many character's (including his own's) narrative arcs were just a big stupid circle.

So we hate Dinklage now? Who’s got the list this week?

Great actor but that doesn't even make sense. I'd like to see him actually try to defend the writing.
