We all agree it was clunky and rushed. The writing at times was terrible.

However, it is a stretch to say, looking back, that the main plot points “came out of left field”

-Arya killing the NK was built up in the show for several seasons
-The tension of Dany snapping was built up in the show since season 1
-Jon killing Dany was really the only option left and was predicted by many so obviously it was no surprise
-Bran becoming king makes sense when you realize he set all this in motion Dr Strange style the whole time (I could step you through this)

no it was. She was built up to kill the queen. Not the NK. She had NO ties to that story line other than being Jon's sister. She wold have been better suited to kill Cersie or Dany.

lol no it wasnt. she had a temper but nothing to that affect.

i have never seen this as "being out of left field so idk why you are bringing this up.

you remind me of Oweo with how highly you think of yourself. on the topic, it really doesnt make sense. Yes he set it all up, and when you think of it like that he is the main villain. Yet the show doesnt make it come off like that.

They didn’t even know it was her until they started writing season 8. Gtfo.

Single handedly makes the show retarded

ETA: would love to see a rebuttal

100% agree. Everything that happened makes perfect sense but the final build up this season wasnt done very well. Does that make the season a pile of shite? No imo. Just not as good as it could have been.
