re: I'm a weak man, I caved and re-watched Game of Thrones. Where it went off the rails...

Bran's whole thing actually meant nothing. What did him being the 3 eyed raven actually mean?

He is the seven kingdoms memory. I think, maybe. He didn't want to be Bran or the heir to Winterfell, just the three eyed raven. Told Meera, Sam, Littlefinger, his sisters, everyone that. But he is completely fine being Bran the King. Got it.

We never get why the Night King was doing what he was doing, really. The Children made him, but that's not enough explanation.

According to Bran, he wanted an endless night. To erase the world. Simple enough. Just part of the ice and fire yin and yang story. Fire representing life in one way and ice representing death.

Sansa gets to say the North isn't part of the 7 kingdoms, but still lets Jon get sent away.

Made no sense for her to be ok with him getting banished.

Jon should have claimed Drogon.

I've always said that one thing that could have just a tiny bit made the ending better for me is when in the final scene when Jon is walking out past the wall and the camera is rising showing an overhead shot, that Drogon should have just swooped by and then boom, credits. You could have at least been like damn, Jon got himself a dragon like a true Targaryen.
