re: Observations on GOT final season and ending (having watched it this weekend).

Here is my somewhat unpopular opinion…

If they had flipped the order of events in the final season it wouldn’t have been so bad.

- first half of the final season is Dany/Jon uniting and going to kings Landing to try and get Cersei on their side

- Dany goes crazy and burns the city, events unfold as they did with Jamie dying, hound dying etc…

- Jon rejects the crown and Bran is named king (but not with that stupid round table scene).

- Then they all deal with the Night King with events unfolding the same way, even Arya killing him.


I think people would’ve been way happier that way. Yes they may have rolled their eyes at some stuff still but the anticipation of the big showdown with the Night King and the unknown of whether anyone would survive would have kept people more engaged.

They wouldn’t have been able to have the dragon fight unless Drogon showed up on his own or something but so what.

Think about it the final episode would have been that epic battle and the show would’ve gone out on a much better note.
