People upset with Sansa ruling the north need to chill. Given the technology there is like a 70% chance she dies in childbirth and Jon still gets to be king in the north


Jon can't hold land or title as part of his punishment.

That said, if Westeros punishes Jon, why can't he just immediately declare as a citizen of the North and avoid his punishment?

Doesn't the three eyed raven live for like 1000 years? So... he is going to be king forever, until someone murks him, because he is a cripple and the easiest kill in the show.

Which not only kills the king, but also erases the three eyed raven, and world's memories. Holy frick...

You can’t go “Jon didn’t want it!!”

And then give it to bran because “bran didn’t want it”

Somewhere far enough away that the northern bannermen could be a real threat during the final negotiations.

I would assume Dragonstone.

Except the entire series is based around the true heir to the throne and then he gets banished like he’s nothing because...reasons?

I’m fine with Arya going and doing whatever, she’s not the issue. Although she should’ve been dead multiple times in this series but plot armor is thick.

Sansa ruling anything is shitty because Sansa is overall shitty but I can live with that.

The biggest problem is the how it shook out. Horrible. Read the comments in the thread and you’ll see what I’m talking about. It was not good.

Literally nothing will make everyone happy. People complaining it was rushed they only had 1 episode to resolve everything. It was a perfect and fitting way to end the show. People just want to bitch.

Pretty good explanation of the last two seasons.

Well....

This show has over taken TLJ as biggest anticlimactic wet fart. And like that movie, I’ll never be watching any of this series again.

Can’t be corrupted? But he could have easily stopped dany from killing women and children and avoided all this shite. Then he ends up on the throne. I’d call that pretty fricking corrupted.

Honestly, that was a pretty good finale.

If all the stuff leading up to it wasn't so bad, it would have been a great finale.

They had as many episodes as they needed and they chose this. Don’t use time as an excuse.

He killed the Queen. Did you think he was going to get off scot free?

To each his own. I enjoyed it and am satisfied by it given the season as a whole and the lack of source material because GRRM can’t get his shite together.

No, they didn’t. HBO wrote them a blank check and said take as long as you need. They chose 13 shitty episodes and left viewers pissed.

Also why is Bran grinning like a mother fricker after being named a “reluctant king”. Old broke arse reacted like Little Finger getting the throne like this was all one big plan for him to seize power


Ending would have been hella better to me if Bran's eyes were blue in final frame, he turned when nkght king touched him. He warged Drogon, did the killing to make Jon turn on and kill Dany

Yep. So Dorne is now content to be in the fold? I guess the Iron Islands are happy too?
