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

quote:

So Dany comes to save the day and they are making a perfectly fine get away on the dragon, but Jon inexplicably decides that he doesn't need to get on the dragon and get away but wants to be a hero and kill just a few more inconsequential wights that would have made no difference at all. If he would have just got on with everyone else, they could have presumably flown away safely. But no, he stalls Dany/everyone to kill a few more so in the mean time the Knight King can ice javelin a dragon down and give him the dragon they need to get past the wall.

So this episode is also where I was like "I'm out". And if I remember correctly Jon doesn't get on the dragon because he sees the Night King so decides to try and get to him and ends up having to fight all the walkers in the way. I immediately thought HAVE DANY DIRECT DRAGON FIRE AT HIM. HES RIGHT frickING THERE!

No instead he wants to fight 100 dead people while going uphill, when he could've gotten on the dragon, told dany to have the dragon look slightly right, and end the whole God damned thing.


See, now I'm emotional too
