How would you have ended GoT?

if the final battle had taken place ay Kings Landing
all of the characters ending would have been more interesting with a few changes for location /timing

Jon Snow killing the Night King, becoming King of the North, Dany not going bat shite but still killing the Lannisters and taking over Westeros except the North

John battles the night king. Loses but doesn’t die. Many others do. Danny takes kings landing without the crazy shite. Epic battle with fire and ice dragon. Danny dies. John rules.

John does his duty and fricks his aunt… for peace

IMO the show was great in the beginning bc of how punishing it was emotionally. A lot of time bad prevailed over good.

I was re-watching some scenes from GoT on Youtube last night, and I tell you, I feel like the show had more utterly despicable villains than any other show in history. Joffrey and Ramsay are usually the first that come to mind, but characters like Karl Tanner and Locke were also sadistic psychopaths who really pushed the boundaries in what we were used to seeing from a tv series.

I think the villains and their actions just reinforced how brutal of a world Westeros and beyond really was.

Jon kills the night king.
Dany dies taking king's landing.
Jaime kills cersei during the assault of king's landing turning the kingslayer into the queenslayer.
Jon ends up on the throne.


Alternately, night king wins.

I actually don’t have a problem with how things actually ended (except for Bran; that was stupid). My problem was that instead of fleshing those endings out and leading up to them to where they actually make sense, they just rushed through things and crammed the endings in there as fast as possible so they made almost no sense.

For example; Dany going insane? Okay I can buy that if it makes sense…she’s nuts anyway and is a Targaryen after all. But to have her character turn on a dime, within the span of about an episode, to a direction that is literally the opposite of the entire premise of her character is just so silly and stupid that it’s laughable.

You want Bran to get the throne? Maybe don’t show us how dumb and wooden he is for a season and a half before giving it to him. Give us a GLIMPSE of him being rational, compassionate, or a leader or whatever you can to make it make sense. Don’t just randomly name him at the end of the series out of fricking nowhere.

Just shite like that made no sense and turned one of the best shows ever into just “good.” I still contend that the last couple seasons have some really good parts in them. And had they even remotely stuck the landing, the show would’ve gone down as one of the GOATs. But they didn’t. And it will be (rightfully) remembered for that.

Of all the dumb things in the last season the dumbest was Jon Snow to the nights watch especially after the Ice Kind was gone. I didn't like Bran as king either or the Dragon Mom going crazy in half a minute but the Snow to the wall was absolutely dumb.

I would have done a lot of things differently, but there was a post on here a long time ago, with script lines and everything, for having Jamie kill the night king.

However it ends, that scene should be included.
