re: GOT real disappointment in ending story telling

Ryan3232, my complaint of EP 3 and 4 aren't based on "fantasical musings that do not exist in our world". Fantasy/SCi-fi are fun. They don't roll by our rules. But the good ones have rules. GRRM and GOT have had rules. Last 2 episodes have pissed on those rules.
Tactics and "believably" don't always go in hand. But Arya Stark...who outside of the NK piece...her arc has been the best in the show and books and EP 4 actually cemented that...j/s, didn't even know who the NK was...much less be able to pick him out in a room of tens to hundreds of undead and kill him without any of the others intervening...its really not plausible within the context of the world we are given. Wouldn't bat an eye if she kills Cersei in EP 5 with a smile and Euron...and the Mountain...and Tyrion...and Jaimie. Her character is the consummate assassin. Who typically fares very well in close quarters, with civilians, and planning. Off the cuff, multiple antagonists, readied fighters, and poor odds...not really shining by typical fantasy or non-fictional standards.

quote:im with you bud. I cant disagree with you. With that said, I wont bitch about this ending considering other shows ive seen. (Everyones gripe with the WW will be there including myself, but ill try and let it slide).

I agree with you through and through though huntingwabbits47. Lets just see how the show plays out. I pray we get some answers. (I dont think we will, but im still in this).
