re: Re-Watch of Game of Thrones

For me, the biggest problem with GOT by the end is that most of the best actors on the show had been killed off.

Tywin, Roose Bolton, Littlefinger all had a presence that was never really replaced. Not so much their characters but the actors playing the roles. Sure the writing may have sucked but there just wasn’t the star power on the show anymore by the end. Kit Harrington and Peter Dinklage weren’t enough.

The show ended with the white walker battle for me. It was never going to get better than that. Everything after was just mehhhhh DLC.

Would watch again.

I think Cersei should have been whacked sometime after she blew the sept. I mean no one can just take power without some support. She was literally hated by everyone except Qyburn and Zombie mountain. That does not make one a ruler.

Have her killed and replaced with someone the people TRULY love. If if you, God forbid, have to take some of the time away from Arya selling oysters. Then you set the grounds for the people outright rejecting Dany and her flipping out.

Lena Hedy did an incredible performance as Cersei, but from the end of Season 6 it’s clear she’s living on borrowed time. Book readers were confused on why Faegon was added halfway through the series, but now I think it’s clear. Faegon and his faction are going to be the actual victims of Dany if the books by some miracle are ever finished. No way Cersei makes it through “The Winds of Winter”, and by removing Faegon and doubling down on Cersei, D&D wrote themselves into a corner which required mass stupidity to justify.
