Everyone seemed to unanimously hate this scene. I just rewatched the episode, and I still enjoyed it (liked the scene the first time around too).

Yea maybe they had set a precedent for the supernatural endings the first two seasons (and there was one in particular book readers know that would have worked) but I thought the Dany being accepted as "Mother" scene worked really well.

It was a little heavy handed, sure, but I thought it closed out her arc this season well enough, and even dating back to the first season when she essentially lost everything protecting the slaves. Also, it provided some hope for the future of Westeros in light of the previous episode's events....

Thought it was one of the weakest scenes in the show.

Especially for ending a finale.

That scene was there for a purpose

-Give Danny some screen time
-ominous outgoing music score
-flying dragons
-wide shot

It was very forced.....Bran's scene walking north of the wall would have served just about as much purpose

Mhysa scene opinions?


I liked the scene overall, but admit the two second crowd surf came off as kind of cheese. It was only a couple seconds long, but it really blew up people's opinions. Take out the couple seconds of Dany at Lollapalooza, and I really liked how the the last scene paralleled the end of the first season finale.

How come Neo getting carried off is fricking stupid, but Maximus getting carried off is badass?

Eta: hell, I liked that the season ended on an up note. There aren't many wins on GoT.

I understand everybody likes Danny. I do too.

But, Mhysa's entire storyline has become repetitive.

We get it. She shows up, everybody sees how hot she is and she tells them she wants their army. They say no, she shows the dragons, they freak out and eventually bow to the mother of dragons.
She frees the people, tells them they're free to go OR they can take door number two and join her clan. EVERYONE, with no exceptions, joins her.

The crowd surfing was new though, so I give them credit for that

I liked it until the crowd surfing. After that it got WAY too campy
