Exactly. It's like the writers had a 12 step program in mind, went through steps 1-4, ran out of time and skipped to step 11.

why i keep going back to my description that they explained her getting crazy to like a 3 or 4 out of 10 and then she teleported to 25/10

i'm not saying this came out of left field

i'm not saying they didn't establish some crazy

they just didn't really complete it in any meaningful way

People on this very site have called her an idiot and terrible ruler for years and now all the sudden this is the first time she's done something stupid?

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.
Are you saying you agree with everyone on this site?

and no. I've never seen her do anything as dumb as destroy the entire city she wants to rule. Or react like a child because her nephew wont frick her.

He didn't want to be redeemed. The only thing he ever truly wanted was to be with the love of his life. It just so happens that his murderous sister was that love.

So you are one of those. Only want the black and white warm and fuzzy ending. Just because Jamie went back to Cersei doesn’t nullify his development as a person. Sampson loved Delilah. The battered woman loves and goes back to the abuser. It happens





I must have missed where I said I was upset with how Jamie ended. I was merely pointing out the main reason people are upset with how his Character's ending was written.

my reading comprehension is just fine. no need to throw insults around when we're discussing a TV show though.

what's the complaint? that dany's turn to being evil is rushed. that's the complaint right?

And they all happened over two episodes which were greatly dedicated to other plot points.

I was little annoyed by his “frick the people” line. He certainly didn’t have that mentality when he killed the Mad King to save KL or more recently when he essentially betrayed a pregnant Cersei to go “fight for the living”.

“Jon is my nephew and likeable... Missandei is dead and so is my dragon because of bad writing... I think I’ll kill a few thousand innocent women and children tomorrow to help me cope.”

I actually liked it. Not how they died, but as far as the completion of his story. Im sure im in the minority in this and i would have been fine with him killing Cersei.


I didn't mind it either, not the overall end of them dying together. The actual death was crap, but whatever. I didn't really like how he basically just got up and left in the middle of the night. I think there could have been a bit more done to give him some conflict as to why he'd need to leave than they did, but I didn't have a problem with him going back to her.

I don't think it was about her coping with anything. at a certain point she was just committed to burning down the entire city because she had reached full hate.

Yep. That's mostly my problem with how they wrote his ending. He had abandoned the woman he loved in order to help fight for the living, all living. He wants to go back to try and save the woman he loves, perfectly fine. Him just being like frick all these people I just fought to save, I don't care about anything but her, that made no sense.

In all fairness, Jon didnt lay the pipe. That would have made a lot things different. That D go deep so deep put yo arse to sleep.

As some point Dany is done trying to be loved and do the right thing when she can get what she wants the easy way.

She didn’t just take the throne she fricking showed everyone in westeros she Weill fricking kill them if they test her.

Cersei saw her mercy as a weakness, no one will again.
